#1086 in HTTP server
38KB
779 lines
What is ?
Vacuna is a simple http[s] server for static files written in rust using existing framework/libs it uses actix-web for the server part with rustls for the ssl support, the configuration is handled with knuffel.
Getting started
Auto Configuration
A simple automatic configuration with acme-redirect managed certificates:
server {
listen "[::]:443" {
ssl {
acme-redirect "/var/lib/acme-redirect/live/"
}
}
auto "/var/www/"
}
This configuration will list all the folders in the /var/www
and using the name of the folder as domain name and expose them as sites,
will also look for the certificates in the /var/lib/acme-redirect/live/
sub folders and use them for ssl connections
Whole configuration
For the whole configuration check the whole-conf.kdl
in the root of the repository
Install
Deb
The repo already support to build a deb package, that included the whole configuration and a systemd unit, to build it just run
cargo deb
Why ?
I just wanted a simple and modern static file server without the complexity of existing http servers ( that handle a big set of operation/modules/plugins/cgis/scripts ....) this server is born with the target of serving static sites, only static sites!!
What is the complexity?
This project aim to keep the complexity really low, try to use most of existing libs, and contributing back to existing libs when needed and make sense.
