Corolla

Corolla is a a lightweight SQLite web server. You can use it as a bare-bones web framework.

Example

This Git repostiory includes example Corolla specs, which are JSON files that define a Corolla server's available queries, DB schema, and conversions.

To run the example Corolla spec:

1. Install Rust.

2. Clone this Git repository and navigate into it:

git clone https://github.com/janie314/corolla
cd corolla

3. Start the Corolla server:

cargo run -- -s examples/example_spec.json

Now you can make write queries to the database:

# curl -s -X POST http://localhost:50000/write/write01 \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d '{ "vacation_spot": "sandringham" }'

... And read queries!

# curl -s http://localhost:50000/read/read01 | jq
[
  [
    "vacation_spot"
  ],
  [
    "sandringham"
  ]
]

See here for a more realistic example app.
