This project is now archived and will no longer be worked on. The original goal of the project was to create an HTTP chat server with zero dependencies, but after reaching the point of serializing and deserializing JSON I felt scope was too large for a learning project.
A follow-up will be made that allows for some sane dependencies, such as serde-json and potentially something like axum or another concurrency runtime.
A learning project to implement an Http server from scratch that will be used to run a very simple chat server.
This project should not be used for anything important, the underlying TcpListener is likely vulnerable to attacks.
Running the project starts an http server at 127.0.0.1:8080. As of now this server will echo back the body provided to it. It only accepts messages following HTTP/1.1 protocol.
Hammer this thing! The following will create 10,000 requests with 1,000 in parallel at a time.
seq 1 10000 | xargs -P1000 -I{} curl http://localhost:8080/{} --data test
