julia

中文

A small yet high performance http server and reverse proxy. You may view it as a tiny nginx.

Environment

• gcc 5.4.0
• linux 4.4.0

Dependency

• juson

Install

  $ git submodule update --remote --recursive
  $ cd src && make all
  $ make install # root required

Run

$ julia # roo required, default listening at 8000

You may modify the config file to specify the port if there is a confliction.

Debug

As julia run as a daemon, it is not convenient to debug. Follow the steps to make it run in debug mode:

1. change the INSTALL_DIR in Makefile to your local repo, like:

   INSTALL_DIR = /home/foo/julia/ # the last slash required

2. turn on the debug instruction in config.json

   "debug": true,

Exciting

Making a http server and host your site is not extremely cool? Then, what if your server is compiled by your own compiler?

Yes, i wrote a C11 compiler(let me call it wgtcc). It compiles julia, and the site runs well :) You can install wgtcc, then compile julia:

  $ make CC=wgtcc all

It surprised me that the server compiled by wgtcc runs extremely fast!

have fun :)

julia 是一个短小精悍的高并发http服务器和反向代理。你可以将他想象成tiny nginx。我用它搭了博客。静态文件由julia serve, 动态内容pass到后端的uwsgi(类似于fpm)。

安装 调试 请参照上方。

最酷的是，这个服务器，包括正在运行的博客，都是我自己写的C编译器编译的。如果你对编译器也感兴趣，可以看这里。按照其readme安装wgtcc后，你可以这样编译julia：

  $ make CC=wgtcc all

have fun :)
