# Kemal [](https://travis-ci.org/sdogruyol/kemal)
|
|
|
|
Lightning Fast, Super Simple web framework for [Crystal](http://www.crystal-lang.org).
|
|
Inspired by [Sinatra](http://www.sinatrarb.com/)
|
|
|
|
Kemal is under heavy development and currently supports Crystal 0.9.0.
|
|

```
|
|
|

# Installation
|
|
|
|
Kemal supports Crystal 0.9.0 and up.
|
|
You can add Kemal to your project by adding it to ```shard.yml```
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
name: your-app
|
|
|
|
dependencies:
|
|
kemal:
|
|
github: sdogruyol/kemal
|
|
branch: master
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Routes
|
|
|
|
In Kemal, a route is an HTTP method paired with a URL-matching pattern. Each route is associated with a block:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
get "/" do
|
|
.. show something ..
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
post "/" do
|
|
.. create something ..
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
put "/" do
|
|
.. replace something ..
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
patch "/" do
|
|
.. modify something ..
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
delete "/" do
|
|
.. annihilate something ..
|
|
end
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Environment
|
|
|
|
Accessing the environment (query params, body, content_type, headers, status_code) is super easy. You can use the environment returned from the block:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
# Matches /hello/kemal
|
|
get "/hello/:name" do |env|
|
|
name = env.params["name"]
|
|
"Hello back to #{name}"
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
# Matches /resize?width=200&height=200
|
|
get "/resize" do |env|
|
|
width = env.params["width"]
|
|
height = env.params["height"]
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
# Easily access JSON payload from the params.
|
|
# The request content type needs to be application/json
|
|
# The payload
|
|
# {"name": "Serdar", "likes": ["Ruby", "Crystal"]}
|
|
post "/json_params" do |env|
|
|
name = env.params["name"] as String
|
|
likes = env.params["likes"] as Array
|
|
"#{name} likes #{likes.each.join(',')}"
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
# Set the content as application/json and return JSON
|
|
get "/user.json" do |env|
|
|
kemal = {name: "Kemal", language: "Crystal"}
|
|
env.content_type = "application/json"
|
|
kemal.to_json
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
# Add headers to your response
|
|
get "/headers" do |env|
|
|
env.add_header "Accept-Language", "tr"
|
|
env.add_header "Authorization", "Token 12345"
|
|
end
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Middlewares
|
|
|
|
You can create your own middlewares by inheriting from ```HTTP::Handler```
|
|
|
|
```crystal
|
|
class CustomHandler < HTTP::Handler
|
|
def call(request)
|
|
puts "Doing some custom stuff here"
|
|
call_next request
|
|
end
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
Kemal.config.add_handler CustomHandler.new
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Static Files
|
|
|
|
Kemal has built-in support for serving your static files. You need to put your static files under your ```/public``` directory.
|
|
|
|
E.g: A static file like ```/public/index.html``` will be served with the matching route ```/index.html```.
|
|
|
|
## Production / Development Mode
|
|
|
|
By default Kemal starts in ```development```mode and logs to STDOUT.
|
|
|
|
You can use ```production``` mode to redirect the output to a file. By default Kemal logs the output to ```kemal.log```.
|
|
|
|
You can start Kemal in production mode by:
|
|
|
|
```./your_app -e production```
|
