Boilerplate HTTP Server for Synopse mORMot Framework

This project is embedding of HTML5 Boilerplate v.5.3.0 apache server settings into Synopse mORMot Framework

Quick Start

Download and unpack the latest mORMotBP release from GitHub Dist directory
Add the next three project Pre-Build events (to embed all h5bp assets as application resource file):

Tools\assetslz.exe Assets Assets.synlz
Tools\resedit.exe $(INPUTNAME).res rcdata ASSETS Assets.synlz
DEL Assets.synlz

Add BoilerplateAssets.pas and BoilerplateHTTPServer.pas files into your project
Replace your TSQLHttpServer instance creation with TBoilerplateHTTPServer
Add assets decompression by calling YourHTTPServerInstance.LoadFromResource('Assets');

Features

Embed all your mORMot project assets as resource into application file as highly compressed synlz archive
Allows to build single file distributions (fully aligned with Instant Deployment approach)
Save your cloud hosting Disk IO operations by return all static assets from mem-cached repository
Fully aligned with HTML5 Boilerplate Apache Server configs with more than 35+ options and properties
Server side ETag/Last-Modified or more user-friendly Last-Modified/If-Modified-Since cache strategies
Browsed side Expires or Cache-Control: max-age cache strategies
Pre-compressed GZip variants of all assets, up to maximum level 9 compression
Fix well known mangled "Accept-Encoding" values in HTTP headers
Apply all HTTP headers corrections following HTML5 Boilerplate apache settings
Delegate all static assets transferring to low-level API (e.g. http.sys) even GZipped content!
You can safely replace anywhere your TSQLHttpServer with TBoilerplateHTTPServer = class(TSQLHttpServer)

Test Suite

The TBoilerplateHTTPServer is fully test covered with mORMot Test Suite framework. Instead of classical TDD approach more modern Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) scenarios are used. Please see Tests\mORMotBPTests.dpr test project.
