CppServer

as long as I don't know how to properly name this project, let's call it cppserver for now.

Project Description

A lightweight multithreaded TCP server based on the reactor pattern. This project is still in progress.

Requirements

• GCC 7.5
• cmake
• clang-format & clang-tidy
• WebBench (for server stress test)

Features

• handles requests using the master-slave reactor multithreading model.
• uses a thread pool for better concurrency performance.
• priority queue-based timer (in progress).
• http request parsing & response (partially implemented)
• support asynchronous logging.

Usage

1. build the server shared lib:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j4

2. build test cases

make echo_server
make echo_single_client
make echo_multi_clients
make http_server

Tested on: Ubuntu 16.04 CentOS 7
