tokio/examples/tinyhttp.rs

//! A "tiny" example of HTTP request/response handling using transports.
//!
//! This example is intended for *learning purposes* to see how various pieces
//! hook up together and how HTTP can get up and running. Note that this example
//! is written with the restriction that it *can't* use any "big" library other
//! than Tokio, if you'd like a "real world" HTTP library you likely want a
//! crate like Hyper.
//!
//! Code here is based on the `echo-threads` example and implements two paths,
//! the `/plaintext` and `/json` routes to respond with some text and json,
//! respectively. By default this will run I/O on all the cores your system has
//! available, and it doesn't support HTTP request bodies.
