I just released a vibe.d library that allows you to turn any D

experience. It basically feels like you don't need to write any 
boilerplate HTML code anymore but instead write D and show your 
D code with a fancy mask automatically to the user. 
Additionally it handles all the validation for you so you can 
be sure that anything the user couldn't type in into the HTML 
frontend won't be stored inside the backend struct (validation 
& some corrections for all HTML5 input types).

Love the article! Please keep writing tutorials like this :-D.

Feedback:
1.
The upload function is (kind of) vulnerable against path

  moveFile(file.tempPath, Path("./public/uploads") ~

Thanks for feedback. Will consider those points raised in 
thought. Will add more advanced stuff and security as time goes 
on.


Please fix the security vulnerability for this tutorial as well 
in case someone copy pastes the code.

If a file named "../SomeOtherFile.htm" is uploaded the server 
will hit this assert:

https://github.com/rejectedsoftware/vibe.d/blob/master/core/vibe/core/path.d#L426
Denail of Service attack!

When the application is compiled with the release flag the assert 
will be omitted and the path traversal will work.


2.
It would be more beginner friendly if you also described how to 
add the upload function to the router.

Your github link on the left side is broken. Discovered this when

Cool, does it also work for generating diet -> html at runtime 
without inline D code? Would be pretty neat to have for static 
pages.


I'm working on a small framework for that, inspired by Jekyll.

Hi!

I'm pleased to announce that my GSoC project, a replacement for 
the outdated std.xml, is now a Phobos PR! [1] It is an (almost 
complete) mirror of my repository [2], which is also available 
on DUB [3].


I would like to thank my mentor Robert burner Schadek for his 
great support and everybody who already gave some feedback 
during these months.


The PR is not meant for immediate merging. Some things still 
need improvement (docs/unittests/...) while others will come in 
a second iteration (advanced DTD handling). It is meant to for 
some reviews, focusing mainly on the design and usability of 
the library.


In the PR description you will find all the details, including 
a nice "wishlist" of things that I found missing in D during 
the development and some open questions.


So, if you have any consideration/suggestion, drop a line here 
or on the PR, and if you find bugs, don't hesitate to file an 
issue on the issue tracker of my repository.


Thank you very much!

I like the new cursor API very much since it enables new use 
cases that are were hard to do with the old API. Thanks for your 
hard work!


Examples are a bit scares. I like the way Phobos documents every 
functions with an unittest/example. I'm all for that!


Another thing I encountered some days ago was that the default 
error handler is using asserts to signal error. 
https://github.com/lodo1995/experimental.xml/issues/30
It is not obvious from the API that you're required to have a 
error handler.

Two ideas:
Use exceptions instead of asserts. This way it is recoverable in 
the default use case.

Require a error handler in the constructor.

IMO it would also be interesting to graph the statistics to be
