Thread: Create a thinbasic webserver?

  1. #1

    Create a thinbasic webserver?

    Is it possible to setup a webserver in Thinbasic?

    for example, python it has integrated a webserver
    https://pythonbasics.org/webserver/

    then, the info can be displayed via browsers.

    can thinbasic be used as a http, webserver?

    Hi Mar,

    thank you for your question.

    I would say the best way to create HTTP server in Python is currently FastAPI:
    https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/

    Regarding thinBASIC and this task...:
    - you can use REST API server via CURL module
    - you can perform simple GET requests via INET_UrlGetString
    - you can use thinBASIC for server side CGI scripting

    ...but I would not recommend it at the moment for designing a HTTP web server.

    Hi Petr,

    thank you for your information and tips about fastapi and thinbasic options and modules and commands.
    I started to learn about it...


    On the other hand, I read that you connected thinbasic to rust time ago.

    I have a question about rust/thinbasic...

    if the webserver were rust...is it possible to set in a rust route to go to thinbasic, then use thinbasic/oxygen(for all the programming), and then return the data to rust routes/html?

    in order to have the programming done in thinbasic/oxygenbasic, and the output/input via rust http server

    what do you think?

    Hi Mar,

    while a bit unusual approach, definitely technically possible
