Cachr

Simple HTTP Caching proxy implementation in pure C.

Compiling

cmake .
make

Running

1. Edit config.ini file or create your own
2. Run with ./cachr command. You can optionally supply own config by passing it as argument to executable. E.g. ./cachr new_config.ini

Using

You can test solution with following command:

./test/request.sh

or

curl localhost:3001/one_second -w %{time_connect}:%{time_starttransfer}:%{time_total} & 
curl localhost:3001/one_second -w %{time_connect}:%{time_starttransfer}:%{time_total} &

First request response time should be considerably bigger than subsequent calls' response time.

Todo

• Add/implement stack (stack will indicate empty positions in fds array)
• Make requests to target
• Store request results in dictionary
• CRON-like mechanism for freeing memory in dicitonary
• Returning dict contents if possible
• Tests
