| Graham 21-Feb-2010 [2063] | So we now have two DevBases ? |
| BrianH 21-Feb-2010 [2064x2] | Technically, the one accessed through CHAT is the third DevBase. The other two have been retired. |
The first was written by Carl to do /View development, way back when, and never released (afaict). DevBase 2 was derived from that, and DevBase 3 was based on the lessons learned from 2. | |
| Graham 21-Feb-2010 [2066] | Ok, we need to be more explicit and refer to DevBase3 now |
| BrianH 21-Feb-2010 [2067x5] | It's the only DevBase now. I just use the term to distinguish from CHAT, which is only a mezzanine that calls a DevBase client. Most people just call it chat. |
So we have the datastore (DevBase), the server (DevBase server), a client (DevBase client) and the mezzanine wrapper (CHAT). | |
For most people those distinctions don't matter, they can just call it chat. It matters to me because writing another DevBase client is on my immediate todo list. | |
I client for R2, to be accessed through a CHAT mezzanine in R2. | |
I -> A | |
| Graham 24-Apr-2010 [2072] | Updated Feb 21 http://github.com/gchiu/Rebol3/tree/master/protocols/ |
| Brock 25-Apr-2010 [2073] | thanks for this Graham |
| DideC 26-May-2010 [2074x4] | I want to build a very very very simple web server in R3. I just want to be able to receive an HTTP request and send the response. But me and Rebol networking are two differents people !! To begin, I just want to be able to display the full request in the response page. So far I have wrote this by peeking code in DocBase, but it does not work as I want : the browser stay awaiting the answer. Can one point me to what's wrong ? |
REBOL []
print "Serving port 8080..."
open-subport: func [port] [
print "=== Creating sub-port"
port/awake: func [event /local port] [
print ["=== Subport event:" event/type]
port: event/port
switch/default event/type [
read [
print [" " data: to-string port/data]
write port to-binary rejoin ["<html><head></head><body>" data "</body></html>"
newline]
true
]
wrote [read port]
close [close port]
] [false]
]
]
server: open tcp://:8080
server/awake: func [event] [
print ["*** Server event:" event/type]
if event/type = 'accept [
open-subport first event/port
]
false
]
wait 30
close server
print "Done serving"
halt

Seems I have found my way to make it working : | |

| NickA 26-May-2010 [2078] | great! |
| Andreas 26-May-2010 [2079] | You might also want to have a look at: http://github.com/earl/rebol3/blob/master/scripts/shttpd.r |
| Anton 27-May-2010 [2080] | Ah, you just forgot the http header. |
| DideC 27-May-2010 [2081] | Thank's Anton. Can be of some help. |
| Anton 28-May-2010 [2082] | (DideC meant to thank Andreas.) |
| NickA 28-May-2010 [2083] | I'm very happy to see this being done with R3 :) |
| Graham 28-Jun-2010 [2084x2] | Not sure what's happening here .. but my server closes the connection, and termintes the thread, but R3 is not getting a close event. |
Hmm...but I get a close event if the server throws an exception | |
| Graham 29-Jun-2010 [2086x2] | db: open jdbcbridge://localhost
insert db [{select * from staff where fullname = (?)} "Graham Chiu"
]
>> print length? db
1
result: pick db 1
>> print length? db
0
close db
db: open jdbcbridge://localhost:8000
insert db {select first 2 * from staff}
>> print length? result
2
>> result: copy db
>> print length? result
0
close db

| Steeve 29-Jun-2010 [2088x2] | I see no evidence in that test. What is the events trace ? |
There are potentially several problems in that code. First, never use wait in the event handler. it's a good way to produce a stack overflow. Second, I have to go to work, sorry... | |
| Graham 29-Jun-2010 [2090] | It's so long since I looked at this R3 network stuff ... |
| Steeve 29-Jun-2010 [2091] | Last but not least , there is problem in the close event. >>client/spec/data: load enline to-string client/spec/data should probably be >>client/spec/data: load enline to-string client/data |
| Graham 29-Jun-2010 [2092x9] | except I'm copying the data from client/data to client/spec/data ... |
and then clearing the client/data | |
I've setup a server at www.compkarori.co.nz:8020 to help debug the jdbcbridge protocol. | |
you don't need any db drivers installed on your side ... it's a tcp connection to the db server. | |
Oh yeah ... don't wipe the Db ... but I've made a backup anyway.
It's the demo employee.fdb that comes with firebird.
You can do this
db: open jdbcbridge://www.compkarori.co.nz:8020
insert db {select first 3 * from employee}
result: copy db
| |
Ok, updated the protocol to remove the waits inside the handler ... and it is working now. I can now detect the close event from the server. | |
Still don't know if I can reuse the port after the server closes it .. or, whether i need to create a new subport | |
going to think on the syntax to get the database metadata ... as I should be able to get column names, and types | |
Anyone tried this out? | |
| Graham 3-Jul-2010 [2101] | What's the best way to determine whether the server has completed sending data if the server does not close the port? |
| Steeve 3-Jul-2010 [2102] | like for any protocol, the server must send the length of the data at first |
| Graham 3-Jul-2010 [2103x4] | pop uses .crlf ftp closes the data port |
http uses a content-length ... | |
I guess I should try that ... sending a length | |
pop uses crlf.crlf .. sorry | |
| Pavel 12-Aug-2010 [2107] | Any simple protocol example available, something like the R2 one long time on rebolforces, but for R3? I'd like to implement protocol above 'file schema. Any help/hint welcome. |
| Graham 12-Aug-2010 [2108] | Yes, check my github site |
| Pavel 12-Aug-2010 [2109x3] | I've looked at your shemes already, but all of the are network related. Some easy pedagogical example would help me :) how to ommit port numbers (maybe they are not neccesary) and especially how to manage subport in 'file. Anyway impressive bunch of schemes. |
typo all of them | |
may the sheme be asynchrnous alhough file scheme is synchronous (I presume)? | |
| Henrik 12-Aug-2010 [2112] | Robert made an overview of how ports work a while ago. I'm not sure if it's available publicly. |
