Fantom

 

Wisp

Overview

Fantom comes bundled with the wisp::WispService which implements a web server purely in Fantom code - so you can use it without the fuss of setting up additional software.

Test Setup

You can run a test wisp server straight from fansh using a configurable port:

fansh> wisp::WispService { port = 8080 }.start
fan.wisp.WispService@5a9de6
[16:22:49 30-Nov-09] [info] [web] WispService started on port 8080

If it is running correctly you should be able to hit http://localhost:8080/ and see the test page.

Configuration

Wisp is easily configured by installing a root WebMod which is responsible for serving all requests to the server. Typically you will install a composition WebMod to setup your pipeline and routing configuration.

See the following examples for how to setup a daemon script with various WebMod configurations:

  • web-hello: single, simple custom root webmod
  • web-demo: illustrates use of many different webmods
  • js-demo: configuration used to serve up FWT in browser examples
