Build and Run

Using CMake

Requires

• LibreSSL installed. You may refer to this sh script - how to install libressl - install-libressl.sh.
  Or try something like $ apk add libressl-dev

• oatpp and oatpp-libressl modules installed. You may run utility/install-oatpp-modules.sh script to install required oatpp modules.

$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make 
$ ././example-libressl-exe  # - run application.

In Docker

$ docker build -t example-libressl .
$ docker run -p 8443:8443 -t example-libressl

Configure AppComponent

Configure server secure connection provider

/**
 *  Create ConnectionProvider component which listens on the port
 */
OATPP_CREATE_COMPONENT(std::shared_ptr<oatpp::network::ServerConnectionProvider>, serverConnectionProvider)([] {
  /* non_blocking connections should be used with AsyncHttpConnectionHandler for AsyncIO */
  auto config = oatpp::libressl::Config::createDefaultServerConfig("cert/test_key.pem", "cert/test_cert.crt");
  return oatpp::libressl::server::ConnectionProvider::createShared(config, 8443, true /* true for non_blocking */);
}());

Configure client secure connection provider

OATPP_CREATE_COMPONENT(std::shared_ptr<oatpp::network::ClientConnectionProvider>, sslClientConnectionProvider) ([] {
  auto config = oatpp::libressl::Config::createShared();
  tls_config_insecure_noverifycert(config->getTLSConfig());
  tls_config_insecure_noverifyname(config->getTLSConfig());
  return oatpp::libressl::client::ConnectionProvider::createShared(config, "httpbin.org", 443);
}());

Endpoints

"Hello Async" root endpoint with json response

ENDPOINT_ASYNC("GET", "/", Root) {

  ENDPOINT_ASYNC_INIT(Root)
  
  Action act() override {
    auto dto = HelloDto::createShared();
    dto->message = "Hello Async!";
    dto->server = Header::Value::SERVER;
    dto->userAgent = request->getHeader(Header::USER_AGENT);
    return _return(controller->createDtoResponse(Status::CODE_200, dto));
  }

};

result:

$ curl -X GET "https://localhost:8443/" --insecure
{"user-agent": "curl\/7.54.0", "message": "Hello Async!", "server": "oatpp\/0.19.1"}

Async proxy endpoint to https://httpbin.org/get

ENDPOINT_ASYNC("GET", "/api/get", TestApiGet) {

  ENDPOINT_ASYNC_INIT(TestApiGet)

  Action act() override {
    return controller->myApiClient->apiGetAsync().callbackTo(&TestApiGet::onResponse);
  }

  Action onResponse(const std::shared_ptr<IncomingResponse>& response){
    return response->readBodyToStringAsync().callbackTo(&TestApiGet::returnResult);
  }

  Action returnResult(const oatpp::String& body) {
    return _return(controller->createResponse(Status::CODE_200, body));
  }

};

result:

$ curl -X GET "https://localhost:8443/api/get" --insecure

  "args": {}, 
  "headers": {
    "Connection": "close", 
    "Host": "httpbin.org"
