This + increases the readability of the code and the logic might be + possible to reuse.</p> + + <section> + <title>The *.tool file</title> + <p>When WebTool starts it searches the current path for + <c>*.tool</c> files to find all available tools. The *.tool + file contains a version identifier and a list of tuples which + is the configuration data. The version identifier specifies + the *.tool file version, i.e. not the version of + webtool. Currently the only valid version is "1.2" and the + only valid configuration tag is + <c>config_func</c>. <c>config_func</c> specifies which + function WebTool must call to get further configuration data + for the tool. This means that a *.tool file generally must + look like this:</p> + <code type="none"> + {version,"1.2"}. + [{config_func,{Module,Function,Arguments}}]. </code> + <p><c>Module</c> is the name of the module where the callback + function is defined. <c>Function</c> is the name of the + callback function, and <c>Arguments</c> is the list of + arguments to the callback function.</p> + </section> + + <section> + <title>The configuration function</title> + <p>The *.tool file points out a configuration function. This + function must return a list of configuration parameters (see + the Reference Manual for <seealso marker="webtool">webtool</seealso>).</p> + <p>The <c>web_data</c> parameter is mandatory and it specifies + the name of the tool and the link to the tool's start + page. All other parameters are optional.</p> + <p>If the tool requires any processes to run, the <c>start</c> + parameter specifies the function that WebTool must call in + order to start the process(es).</p> + <p>The <c>alias</c> parameters are passed directly on to the + webserver (INETS). The webserver has three ways to create + dynamic web pages CGI, Eval Scheme and Erl Scheme. All tools + running under WebTool must use Erl Scheme.</p> + <p>Erl Scheme tries to resemble plain CGI. The big difference is + that Erl Scheme can only execute Erlang code. The code will + furthermore be executed on the same instance as the webserver.</p> + <p>An URL which calls an Erlang function with Erl Scheme can have + the following syntax:</p> + <code type="none"><![CDATA[ +http://Servername:Port/ErlScriptAlias/Mod/Func<?QueryString> ]]></code> + <p>An <c>alias</c> parameter in the configuration function can be + an ErlScriptAlias as used in the above URL. The definition of + an ErlScripAlias shall be like this:</p> + <p><c>{alias,{erl_alias,Path,[Modules]}}</c>, e.g.</p> + <p><c>{alias,{erl_alias,"/testtool",[helloworld]}}</c></p> + <p>The following URL will then cause a call to the function + helloworld:helloworld/2 (if WebTool is started with default + settings i.e. servername "localhost" and port 8888):</p> + <p><c>http://localhost:8888/testtool/helloworld/helloworld</c></p> + <p>Note that the module <c>helloworld</c> must be in the code + path of the node running WebTool.</p> + <p>Functions that are called via the Erl Scheme must take two + arguments, <c>Environment</c> and <c>Input</c>. + </p> + <list type="bulleted"> + <item><c>Environment</c> is a list of key/value tuples.</item> + <item><c>Input</c> is the part of the URL after the "?", i.e. the + part of the URL containing name-value pairs. If the page was + called with the URL: + <br></br> +<c><![CDATA[http://localhost:8888/testtool/helloworld/helloworld?input1=one&input2=two]]></c> <br></br> +<c>Input</c> will be the string + <c><![CDATA["input1=one&input2=two"]]></c>. In the module + <c>httpd</c> in the INETS application there is a function + <c>parse_query</c> which will parse such a string and return + a list of key-value tuples.</item> + </list> + <p>An <c>alias</c> parameter in the configuration function can + also be a normal path alias. This can e.g. be used to point + out a directory where HTML files are stored. The following + definition states that the URL + <c>http://localhost:8888/mytool_home/</c> really points to the + directory <c>/usr/local/otp/lib/myapp-1.0/priv</c>:</p> + <p><c>{alias,{"/mytool_home","/usr/local/otp/lib/myapp-1.0/priv"}}</c></p> + <p>See the INETS documentation, especially the module + <c>mod_esi</c>, for a more in depht coverage of Erl Scheme.</p> + </section> + + <section> + <title>A small example</title> + <p>A Hello World example that uses Erl Scheme would look like + this.
