Fullmoon is a fast and minimalistic web framework based on Redbean — a portable, single-file distributable web server.
Everything needed for development and distribution comes in a single file with no external dependencies and after packaging with Redbean runs on Windows, Linux, or macOS.
Fullmoon handles each HTTP request using the same process:
- takes the path URL and matches it against each route URL in the order in which routes are registered
- verifies conditions for those routes that match
- calls a specified action handler (passing a request table) for those routes that satisfy all conditions
- serves the response if anything other than false or nil returned from the action handler (and continues the process otherwise)
This is free and open source software.
