URL Router

This URL-Router is a fast and simple way, to implement routing for your C/C++-Application. Use placeholder routes like "/users/{username}" and get your username variable set.

Motivation

This project was created after the need of a simple, standalone and fast C / C++ routing library with placeholder functionalities.

Code Example

  // Create matchable route with "username" as fillable placeholder
  path_t* path = NULL;
  uint8_t res = create_path(&path, "/users/{username}", 1, '{', '}');
  
  // Match incoming request
  uint64_t matched;
  placeholder_t* placeholders;
  res = find_url(&matched, &placeholders, path, "/users/nils");
  
  // 'matched' set to 1
  // 'placeholders->name' set to "username"
  // 'placeholders->value' set to "nils"
