Simple HTTP/HTTPS server

This is a very minimal HTTP server. Optionally supports HTTPS server based on mbedTLS server example.

How to use

This directory is an ESP-IDF component. Clone it (or add it as a submodule) into the component directory of the project. Enable TLS/SSL HTTPS server by uncommenting the #define HTTPS_SERVER line at https_server.h, otherwise it will implement unsecured http server. Server certificate and private key are loaded at https_server.c directly into flash code as in the open_ssl_server example from ESP-IDF repository. Don't forget to insert cacert.pem and prvtkey.pem at your main application directory if you want to run GET/POST examples.

Documentation

None yet, but I tried to make the comments in the header file helpful.

Examples

Examples functions at http server:

GET Method Example

simple_GET_method_example() function:

• Add http_server.c and http_server.h as a component into your project.
• Server initialization added into the example function, simply call it and it should work!
• Receiving a GET request at /, http server response is a "Hello World, from ESP32!" html.

POST Method Example

simple_POST_method_example() function:

• As well as GET example, simply add http_server as a componente into your ESP-IDF project.
• Server initialization added into the POST example function, simply call it and don't worry.
• Post to / a pair of key-value where the key is 'key' and value some value you want to test. The example will show value content. If needed, increade log verbosity at make menuconfig to show all parsed key-value pairs.

Debugging

Increasing log level to "Verbose" should produce lots of output related to request handling.
