Subject: [Announce] Ocsigen 0.5.1 (Web server in OCaml)
Date: Tue, 19 Dec 2006 16:47:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200612191647.10579.balat@pps.jussieu.fr> (raw)
Dear OCaml users,
The Ocsigen Web server is now available for download in version 0.5.1.
See http://www.ocsigen.org for details, downloading and documentation.
Ocsigen is a Web server, with a programming framework providing a new way to
create dynamic Web sites using Objective Caml. Its goal is to offer an
alternative to Apache/PHP, based on cutting-edge technologies coming from
research in programming languages.
It allows to program in a concise and modular way, using OCaml's type system
in a thoroughgoing way in order to produce valid xhtml. The server handles
sessions, URLs, and page parameters automatically. Pages are generated by
OCaml functions (services) and you can dynamically create new services
dedicated to a user of the Web site (continuation based Web programming).
The Web server is now full featured to handle static and dynamic pages. It
supports HTTP, HTTPS, pipelining of requests, multipart forms, virtual hosts,
etc. It is implemented using cooperative threads, making it very lightweight
and providing a very convenient and safe style of programming (no need for
mutexes).
Ocsigen is now fully usable and (hopefully) stable. Some features will be
added before version 1 (in a few months). Next version (0.6.0) will allow the
creation of extensions for the Web server (like Apache modules).
A debian package is available (unstable branch). Contribution would be
appreciated for a Godi package.
