Curassow

Curassow is a Swift Nest HTTP Server. It uses the pre-fork worker model and it's similar to Python's Gunicorn and Ruby's Unicorn.

It exposes a Nest-compatible interface for your application, allowing you to use Curassow with any Nest compatible web frameworks of your choice.

Documentation

Full documentation can be found on the Curassow website: https://curassow.fuller.li

Usage

To use Curassow, you will need to install it via the Swift Package Manager, you can add it to the list of dependencies in your Package.swift:

import PackageDescription

let package = Package(
  name: "HelloWorld",
  dependencies: [
    .Package(url: "https://github.com/kylef/Curassow.git", majorVersion: 0, minor: 6),
  ]
)

Afterwards you can place your web application implementation in Sources and add the runner inside main.swift which exposes a command line tool to run your web application:

import Curassow
import Inquiline


serve { request in
  return Response(.ok, contentType: "text/plain", body: "Hello World")
}

Then build and run your application:

$ swift build --configuration release

Example Application

You can find a hello world example application that uses Curassow.
