Raphaël Monrouzeau 32ac27d4c3 JSONRPC Reverted explicit deallocation calls
The possibility to call jsonrpc_destroy_request was left. Someone may
want to abruptly interrupt the process of its request for some odd
reason, in that case an exlicit call still would be to be made.

About

Build Status

Kore (https://kore.io) is an easy to use web application framework for writing scalable web APIs in C. Its main goals are security, scalability and allowing rapid development and deployment of such APIs.

Because of this Kore is an ideal candidate for building robust, scalable and secure web things.

Features

  • Supports SNI
  • Supports HTTP/1.1
  • Websocket support
  • Lightweight background tasks
  • Built-in parameter validation
  • Only HTTPS connections allowed
  • Multiple modules can be loaded at once
  • Built-in asynchronous PostgreSQL support
  • Private keys isolated in separate process
  • Default sane TLS ciphersuites (PFS in all major browsers)
  • Load your web application as a precompiled dynamic library
  • Modules can be reloaded on-the-fly, even while serving content
  • Event driven (epoll/kqueue) architecture with per CPU core workers

  • Kore is licensed under the ISC license

Old releases

Building Kore

Requirements

  • openssl (latest is always the safest bet, right?) (note: this requirement drops away when building with NOTLS=1 NOHTTP=1)

Requirements for background tasks (optional)

  • pthreads

Requirements for pgsql (optional)

  • libpq

Normal compilation and installation:

# cd kore
# make
# make install

If you would like to build a specific flavor, you can enable those by setting a shell environment variable before running make.

  • TASKS=1 (compiles in task support)
  • PGSQL=1 (compiles in pgsql support)
  • DEBUG=1 (enables use of -d for debug)
  • NOTLS=1 (compiles Kore without TLS)
  • NOHTTP=1 (compiles Kore without HTTP support)
  • NOOPT=1 (disable compiler optimizations)

Example libraries

You can find example libraries under examples/.

The examples contain a README file with instructions on how to build or use them.

I apologize for unclear examples or documentation, I am working on improving those.
