# AqCGI
AqCGI is a small library to help building CGI code in C to be used with
Apache2 and other HTTP servers.
It parses HTTP headers and URL-encoded strings. It also takes care of sending
responses including headers and error codes/messages.
## Build AqCGI
### Dependencies
AqCGI only depends on libgwenhywfar (see [gwenhywfar](https://www.aquamaniac.de/rdm/projects/gwenhywfar/files)).
### Build
Download and unpack tar.gz file, CD into the unpacked folder and build like this:
```
mkdir build
cd build
gwbuild -s ..
gwbuild -jNN (with NN being the number of parallel processes to use, e.g. 4 if compiling on quadcore cpu)
sudo gwbuild -i
```
## Use AqCGI
Working with AqCGI is as simple as this (in your main() function):
```
AQCGI_REQUEST *rq;
DBG_ERROR(NULL, "Init CGI");
AQCGI_Init();
rq=AQCGI_ReadRequest();
if (rq) {
// do something with the request
AQCGI_SendResponseWithStatus(rq, 200, "Ok");
AQCGI_Request_free(rq);
}
AQCGI_Fini();
```
