Implement HTTPS file server in C++ on Linux

Question

I would like to implement a simple file server application on Linux that would allow logged in users to upload and download files.

This file server should work with a Django application that would handle the user login/file permissions and pass download/upload HTTPS requests to the C++ file server application.

Also, it should handle multiple requests from multiple users. What is the best way to do this? Should I use boost:asio or another library? Where should I start?

Answer 1

尝试cpp-netlib-受Boost C ++库高度影响并由Dean Michael创建的仅标头C ++网络库

Answer 2

The Wt library is a C++ library to easily code HTTP or HTTPS servers.

You could also make your file server application a FastCGI or SCGI client of your web server (the one running Django).

Answer 3

这是一个不错的HTTP库列表http://kukuruku.co/hub/cpp/a-cheat-sheet-for-http-libraries-in-c

Answer 4

DAG允许通过HTTP建立SSH隧道，可能值得尝试。
