+# HTTP-Server with Coraza
+
+This example is intended to provide a straightforward way to spin up Coraza and grasp its behaviour.
+
+## Run the example
+
+```bash
+go run . 
+```
+
+The server will be reachable at `http://localhost:8090`.
+
+```bash
+# True positive request (403 Forbidden)
+curl -i 'localhost:8090/hello?id=0'
+# True negative request (200 OK)
+curl -i 'localhost:8090/hello'
+```
+
+You can customise the rules to be used by using the `DIRECTIVES_FILE` environment variable to load a directives file:
+
+```bash
+DIRECTIVES_FILE=my_directives.conf go run . 
+```
+
+You can also customise response body and response headers by using `RESPONSE_HEADERS` and `RESPONSE_BODY` environment variables respectively:
+
+```bash
+RESPONSE_BODY=creditcard go run . 
+```
+
+And then
+
+```bash
+# True positive request (403 Forbidden) due to matching response body
+curl -i 'localhost:8090/hello'
+```
+
+## Customize WAF rules
+
+The configuration of the WAF relies on [default.conf](https://github.com/corazawaf/coraza/blob/main/examples/http-server/default.conf). Feel free to play with it.
+
+## Customize server behaviour
+
+The following snippet shows an example of code that may be added to the [exampleHandler](https://github.com/corazawaf/coraza/blob/main/examples/http-server/main.go#L17) in order to make the example capable of echoing the body request. It comes in handy for testing rules that match the response body.
+
+```go
+func exampleHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
+ w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "text/plain")
+   var buf bytes.Buffer
+ _, err := io.Copy(&buf, req.Body)
+   if err != nil {
+     log.Fatalf("handler can not read request body: %v", err)
+   }
+ w.Write(buf.Bytes())
+}
+```
