Bug#773793: ITP: averell -- An incredibly stupid web server

2014-12-23 Thread Jean Parpaillon
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Jean Parpaillon jean.parpail...@free.fr

* Package name: averell
  Version : 1.0a
  Upstream Author : Jean Parpaillon jean.parpail...@free.fr
* URL : http://github.com/jeanparpaillon/averell
* License : Apache 2.0
  Programming Lang: erlang
  Description : An incredibly stupid web server

averell is a really simple, but efficient web server. It is particularly
intended for serving static content, for instance when developing javascript
applications.

It is as simple as starting it in a directory to serve it. Options include:
- select port
- serve index.html automatically
- enabling CORS

Thanks to the erlang/OTP platform, it is particularly portable, resources
efficient and scalable.

Future developments:
- handling of htaccess-like file for directory specific directives
- daemon mode
- handling of HTTP standard authentications
- HTTPS mode
- distributed mode (keeping it simple...)

Hmm... let's see how it fares portability-wise:
http://buildd.debian-ports.org/status/package.php?p=erlangsuite=unstable

This stands in contrast to most languages we have in Debian.  I'd thus
delete this paragraph, as it's false advertising.

Hi,
Thanks for your feedback.
The platform itself is portable on many architectures:
http://www.erlang.org/faq/implementations.html

Unfortunately, Debian package is not modular enough to avoid what you
mention (because of wxwidgets dependancies, mainly).

An alternative packaging remove this dependancy providing a so-called
erlang-mini package, which works perfectly on raspberry pi, for
instance:
https://www.erlang-solutions.com/downloads/download-erlang-otp

So, I suppose I should give an hand on official Debian package to make
my assertion a reality ;)

Regards,
Jean
