dumb web dev question: I'm having issues w a simple SimpleHTTPRequestHandler python server - I need the Connection: Keep-Alive handler for manipulating audio, but once it's in I'm having issues with many audio files randomly getting stuck in a promise loading.

Any tips on diving into this?

WIP networking in cat engine 0.5.2 "mittens"

added HttpServer{} and HttpClient{} components with imperative methods / apis (get, post, bind address, mount router, etc).

both callbacks and listening for signals [emitted on the scope of a server] are supported for handling requests

12/ You can spin up an HTTP server that servers a directory with `python -m httpserver`. You can also start in debugger mode with `python -m pdb scriptname` and pretty print json with `python -m json.tool`. I have `command! JSONify :%!python -m json.tool` in my vim config

This is a sample Datastar app from @drk.wtf

1/ it's really cool! silky smooth
2/ note how it's running off gh static pages!?

They have worked out how to move the httpserver, to the browser!

I would assume duckdb + the community extension should already do most of the lift

As mentioned by @hannes.muehleisen.org it’s already possible today, just have to roll your own transport or use something like the httpserver extension from @qxip.bsky.social. Here’s an example from @carlopi.bsky.social

Just published something for the Core Java nerds 🤓

Built a tiny REST API using HttpServer, then injected logging behavior at runtime using a Java Agent.

🧠 100% JDK-only. No libs. No frameworks.

Introducing #httpserver: a #DuckDB Community Extension adding a tiny #HTTP #API + User Interface to any DuckDB instance to query and be queried without any wrappers.

Works in pair with the #chsql #flock function to allow distributed queries to dynamic DuckDB workers pools

Surprisingly, Java's built-in HTTP server isn't as bad as I thought it'd be, so messing with deps can probably be mitigated by just using the built-in HttpServer

Is there a minified distribution of python that just has the http·server module? I don't really need the other bits. 🙃
