Spark web framework with Ceylon

This project contains simple examples of the use of Spark with Ceylon.

Requirements

This project requires JDK 8 and Ceylon 1.3.1 or Ceylon IDE 1.3.1 for IntelliJ or Eclipse. On the command line you can use the provided ceylonb command if you don't have Ceylon already installed.

Compiling the examples

To compile the examples, either import this project into Ceylon IDE, or, in this directory, type:

./ceylonb compile

Running the examples

To run the Hello World example, in this directory, type:

./ceylonb run hello.sparky

And go to http://localhost:4567/hello.

To run the HTML example, in this directory, type:

./ceylonb run html.sparky

And go to http://localhost:1234/.

To run the Todo list example, in this directory, type:

./ceylonb run todo.sparky

And got to http://localhost:9999.

Assembling and running a fat jar

To assemble a "fat" jar, in this directory, type:

./ceylonb fat-jar hello.sparky

Then, to run the jar with java, type:

java -jar hello.sparky-1.0.0.jar

Gotcha: static files support in Spark

Spark's support for serving static files from the classpath does not work if the server is executed with module isolation. Therefore, it's necessary to run with the --flat-classpath option enabled. This option is set by default in the file .ceylon/config.
