server
: Runs an HTTP server to perform STILTS commands
server
runs an HTTP server which makes various elements
of STILTS functionality available as HTTP services,
so that they can be run by local or remote clients making HTTP requests
rather than from the more usual command line interface.
When you run server
it will start up a server which
runs until it is interrupted, and write to standard output
the base URL at which it can be accessed, for instance
"http://localhost:2112/stilts/
".
If you point your browser here you will see some examples (hyperlinks to
service requests) of how to use the server.
See Section 11 for more discussion of the server functionality available.
Note:
The server
command and associated servlet code are
somewhat experimental.
If you have requirements which are not currently provided, please
contact the author for discussion.
