Hi, all! This is a tiny step, but an important one: using libfossil to serve data over CGI (not that libfossil knows anything at all about CGI):
http://fossil.wanderinghorse.net/repos/libfossil/cgidemo/index.cgi it's not much, but the contents of the JSON data show us some info pulled from a fossil repo. Perhaps the most interesting part is that the CGI app is entirely written in a scripting language, not C: that CGI script runs a script interpreter which knows small bit about how to use Fossil, and the script dispatches to a function based on the path of the page, e.g.: http://libfossil.local/th1ish.cgi/foo/bar/baz (note the different Content-Type) or: http://fossil.wanderinghorse.net/repos/libfossil/cgidemo/index.cgi/snap or: http://fossil.wanderinghorse.net/repos/libfossil/cgidemo/index.cgi/cookie or: http://fossil.wanderinghorse.net/repos/libfossil/cgidemo/index.cgi/noSuchPage It's in its infancy stages, but the proof of concept is now there. The majority of the implementation is demonstrated in this script: http://fossil.wanderinghorse.net/repos/libfossil/index.cgi/finfo?name=th1ish/cgi-init.th1ish Happy Fossiling! -- ----- stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/ http://gplus.to/sgbeal "Freedom is sloppy.
