# antd-cgi-plugin
CGI interface support for [Antd server](https://github.com/lxsang/ant-http)

## Build from source
As **cgi** is an **Antd's** plugin, The server must be pre-installed
### build dep
* git
* make
* build-essential

### server dependencies
* libssl-dev
* libsqlite3-dev

### build
When all dependencies are installed, the build can be done with a few single command lines:

```bash
mkdir antd
cd antd
#replace x.x.x by the number version
wget -O- https://get.bitdojo.dev/antd_plugin | bash -s "cgi-x.x.x"

# or from the tarball distribution in dist/
tar xvzf cgi-x.x.x.tar.gz
cd cgi-x.x.x
./configure --prefix=/opt/www --enable-debug=yes
make
sudo make install
```
The script will ask you for a place to put the binaries (should be an absolute path, otherwise the build will fail) and the default HTTP port for the server config.

## Example of using PHP-CGI with Antd
Make sure **php-cgi** is installed on your system.
Enable **CGI** for PHP file using antd's config file in ```/path/to/your/build/config.ini```
```ini
; Example of antd's config file
[SERVER]
port=9192 ; port
plugins=/path/to/your/build/plugins/ ; plugins dir
plugins_ext=.dylib ; plugins extensions
database=/path/to/your/build/database/
htdocs=/path/to/your/build/htdocs
tmpdir=/path/to/your/build/tmp/
workers=4
backlog=5000
ssl.enable=1
ssl.cert=/path/to/your/build/server.crt
ssl.key=/path/to/your/build/server.key

[FILEHANDLER]
; using cgi interface for PHP file
php=cgi
```
Next you need to tell the **cgi** plugin where to find the **php-cgi** command by create a ```cgi.ini``` in ```/path/to/your/build/plugins/cgi/cgi.ini```
```ini
;example of cgi.ini
[CGI]
;specify the path to php-cgi for php file
php=/usr/bin/php-cgi
; enable other scripting language using <file extension>=<script-bin CGI>
```

To run Antd server with the **cgi** plugin:
```sh
/path/to/your/build/antd
```

**php** Web applications can be put on **/path/to/your/build/htdocs**

### Generate distribution
```sh
libtoolize
aclocal
autoconf
automake --add-missing
make distcheck
```
