pion network library: testing sample webservices

Question

I am using the Pion Network Library to try to build some lighteight C++ HTTP web services.

I have succesfully built the sources, and I now want to test the sample web services that come bundled with the library.

I am running the PionWebServer executable, passing it the correct arguments to run the EchoService by running:

./PionWebServer WEBSERVICE EchoService

I then navigate to:

http://localhost:8080

and I get an 404 resource not found error. Has anyone managed to get any of the web service examples working with Pion Network?. What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Try

./PionWebServer /echo EchoService

Then access to http://localhost:8080/echo/foo/bar?query=baz should work.

Answer 2

I' am using pion 4.0.5.

Use

./PionWebServer -d {defaultPionInstallDir}/pion/share/pion/plugins echo EchoService

-d: dir where your compiled service is located (NEEDED)

First time I did this I had only statically compiled libs (.a). But PionWebServer was looking for dynamic libs. So I recompiled the pion-project with dynamic libs.

EchoService will be available at

\\\host-ip:8080/echo
