I am new to vibe.d and plying a bit with it.
I notice, that in case of Apache, there is a "root" directory, often by
default under /var/www or /srv/http (resp. ftp) if you are using linux,
and then every time the client sends a request, apache looks in to the
root directory, deduces the subdirectory from the URI, and pulls the
page up from there. Then it parses the PHP / other scripting commands,
and prints the HTML as is, before serving it over http.
I want to know the equivalent of all these in vibe.d. The website has a
documentation, but all what I find is that you will need an app.d, in a
predefined directory structure. I however, do not understand, what the
root directory is going to be.
Is it going to be the directry where vibe.d is started?
Say, I start my vibe.d under /server, then I have an app.d under
/server/a/app.d and /server/b/app.d
Do I access them via http://top.level.domain/a, resp /b, and app.d is
like index.html / index.php which vibe.d looks for by default, or do i
have to use http://top.level.domain/a/app.d
Vibe.d is not a web server. It is a web server framework.
Make it however you feel like!
P.S.
People will say it isn't a web server framework that its also a web
service framework and yada ya. But web server framework is a better way
of thinking of it :) Also a bit of bloat that includes web service
framework and more IO stuff.
