TODO: Maybe refactor this to use a hash-map or something similar to speed up the process. If N = number-of-headers-to-print and M = size-of-request-buffer, then currrently this will take O(N*M) time. |

C Simple HTTP
A simple HTTP/1.1 server written in C.
Usage
Usage:
-p <port> | --port <port>
--config=<config_file>
--disable-peer-addr-print
Before Compiling
Make sure that the git submodule(s) are loaded:
git submodule update --init --recursive --depth=1 --no-single-branch
Without this, the project will fail to build.
Example
# Build the project.
make c_simple_http
# Alternatively, build with cmake.
cmake -S . -B buildDebug && make -C buildDebug
# Run it with the example config.
# Note that the example config was designed such that it must be referred
# to from its parent directory.
./c_simple_http --config=example_config/example.config
# If built with cmake:
./buildDebug/c_simple_http --config=example_config/example.config
# If port is not specified, the server picks a random port.
# This program should print which TCP port it is listening on.
# Sometimes the program will fail to rebind to the same port due to how TCP
# works. Either wait some time or choose a different port.
# Access the website.
# This assumes the server is hosted on port 3000.
curl localhost:3000
