wbsrv is a high-performance web server designed to handle heavy traffic efficiently and securely. This project is built with a focus on speed, scalability, and ease of use.
DISCLAIMER: Please, don't use it in production, it still under heavily development
- High Performance: Optimized for handling thousands of concurrent connections.
- Scalability: Easily scales with your infrastructure needs.
- Ease of Use: Simple configuration and deployment process.
- Cache system: Least Recently Used algorithm of caching allows to store pages in memory
- PHP: Implemented with Embed SAPI
Tested on Dell XPS 13 9310 laptop with following hardware:
- Processor: 11th Gen Intel i7-1185G7 (8) @ 4.800GHz
- Operating System: Kubuntu 24.04.1 LTS
- Kernel: 6.8.0-48-generic
- Memory: 15.3 GiB of RAM
- CMake
- A C++20 compatible compiler (e.g., GCC, Clang)
- Linux-based system
- Proxygen library and its dependencies
- Vcpkg package manager
Create configuration and start the server. We recommend you to use Release build type as it uses compiler optimizations and works as daemon application.
The server.yaml file allows you to customize threads quantity.
threads: 8In the same path with server.yaml there must be directory hosts. In that directory must be virtual hosts configuration. One file - one virtual host. Example of hosts/localhost.yaml
www_dir: "/path/to/files/dir" # your static files root
hostname: "localhost" # domain name
certificate: "/path/to/certificate" # .csr extension
private_key: "/path/to/key" # .key extension
password: "/path/to/file/with/password" # or if there is no password leave it blank
port: 11001
ssl: true # false if you don't want to use secure connection
index_page: ['index.html'] # default filename if no exact file specified in requestIn near future:
- create php core configuration directives
- file upload support
- cookies
- custom .so php support with dlopen
