⚡ High-performance Java HTTP server

dash

High-performance, multithreaded Java HTTP server written using the Netty framework

⚠️ WIP

Dash is currently a work in progress and is not production ready. To access full functionality, you'll also have to depend on Netty since methods in the HttpRequest and HttpResponse class currently directly expose Netty classes. This will change by the time of the first release.

public class Server {
    private final Dash dash;
    private final InetSocketAddress address;
    private final HttpServer server;

    public Server() {
        dash = new Dash();
        address = new InetSocketAddress("localhost", 3000); // bind to localhost:3000
        server = dash.createServer(address); // Create HttpServer
        server.addHandler(new ExampleHandler()); // Add a handler
        listen(); // Start listening for requests
    }

    private void listen() {
        server.listen(future -> {
            if (future.isSuccess()) System.out.printf("Example HTTP server started on %s\n", address);
            else System.out.printf("Failed to start HTTP Server on %s\n", address);
        });
    }
}

class ExampleHandler implements RequestHandler {
    
    @GET(path = "/") // Get requests to "/"
    public void onGetRoot(HttpRequest req, HttpResponse res) {
        res.writeString("Homepage"); // Write string as response
    }
