require 'apphttp'

class Fun

  def initialize()
  end

  def go()
    'go 123'
  end

  def hello(name)
    'hello ' + name
  end

  def food(apples: 0, grapes: 0)
    {apples: apples, grapes: grapes}
  end

end

rws = AppHttp.new(Fun.new, port: '9292', filepath: '/home/james/tmp/fun', headings: false)
rws.start

In the above example a Ruby object's methods are exposed through a web server. In this latest version a default index page is generated for convenience.

Where a argument is to be supplied a method, a input box is generated for your to enter the argument value, prior to method execution.

Below is a demo of the above example:

apphttp

require 'apphttp'


class Fun

  def initialize()
  end

  def go()
    'go 123'
  end

  def hello(name)
    'hello ' + name
  end

  def food(apples: 0, grapes: 0)
    {apples: apples, grapes: grapes}
  end

end

rws = AppHttp.new(Fun.new, port: '9292', debug: true)
rws.start

The above example runs a simple web server which can query methods from an aribtrary object, in this case from a class called Fun.

Output

http://127.0.0.1:9292/go #=> go 123
http://127.0.0.1:9292/hello?arg=James #=> hello James
http://127.0.0.1:9292/food?apples=34 #=> {"apples":"34","grapes":0}
