NAME

nanoweb.php - Nanoweb HyperText Transfer Protocol server

SYNOPSIS

nanoweb.php [ /path/to/nanoweb.conf ] [ -h ] [ -v ]

nanoweb.php [ -c /etc/nanoweb/nanoweb.conf ] [ -o 'directive=value' ] [ -a 'directive=value' ]

DESCRIPTION

Nanoweb is a very flexible HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server, which is fully implemented in the php(1) scripting language and comes along with a bunch of extension modules.

Instead of invoking nanoweb.php directly you should consider utilizing nanoctl(8) to get it run as standalone server, alternatively you could just add an entry to the internet superserver inetd(8) configuration file to have it automatically started on incoming requests.

OPTIONS

-c nanoweb.conf, --config=nanoweb.conf
This tells nanoweb which configuration file to use; if the -c is omitted the full path name of the main configuration file must be the very first argument to nanoweb.php
-o directive='value', --set-option='dir=val'
This command line option can be used to override configuration settings from one of the configuration files.

Quotes or those ticks are neccessary, when your shell could otherwise interpret some characters of the value as meta symbols (values containing spaces should at least be enclosed in ticks or double quotes).

-a 'directive=value', --add-option=dir='val'
Use this to add a configuration setting where many may be given for a directive.
-d, --start-daemon
Runs Nanoweb in daemon mode (as background server process), this is in the "standard" mode (as opposite to inetd mode).
-q, --quiet
Supresses any messages that may be written to standard output.
-h, --help
Prints out the help screen with all available command line options.
-v, --version
Shows version information.

ENVIRONMENT

Nanoweb listens to environmental variables only when run in inetd mode, as it needs to get the IP address and port of the requesting host via the helper util getpeername(1) from the tcputils package in this case; but this is handled transparently by in.nanoweb(8) (every daemon capable of being run from inetd utilizes such a wrapper).
INETD_REMOTE_IP
address of the requesting host
INETD_REMOTE_PORT
the TCP port address

BUGS

Usually, none ;)
