Add the following code to your project's shard.yml under:
dependencies
to use in production
- OR -
development_dependencies
to use in development
Uses toml config file to map http routes to executables.
Example config.toml
"/" = "./echo.sh"
When you curl host:3000?FOO=bar it calls echo.sh with the FOO=bar environment variable.
#!/bin/bash
echo This is a bash script. FOO is equal to $FOO
Echos This is a bash script. FOO is equal to bar
This works for any executable
Another example:
config.toml
"/time" = "date"
Shell output
$ curl localhost:3000/time
