Java HttpServer Tutorial - The Server runs now

Java HttpServer Tutorial - The Server runs now !!!!

I just posted the latest article in the series. It gets the Java HttpServer started, and wired up. Has a pointer to the Merge Request too.

The series is available at: https://blog.mandraketech.in/series/java-http-server

The kicker, in the current article ? There is a Http Server, with 404 handling, and a “/ping” endpoint, all implemented and shipped in a jar that is less than 6000 bytes, yes “less than 6000 bytes”.

AND … we did dependency injection.

Next article, we will write tests for the handlers, using the DI mechanism we built.

I am sure it will get bigger and more complex, but really, a Http Server, in that small a size ? Check out the articles. Subscribe to the newsletter to keep getting follow up posts.
