Horse is a web framework for the Pascal programming language, including Delphi. It allows you to build web applications using a simple, expressive syntax that is similar to Sinatra in Ruby or Flask in Python.
To use Horse in Delphi, you will need to install the Horse package from the command line using the Delphi package manager (DPM). First, make sure that you have DPM installed. If you don’t have it, you can install it by running the following command:
1 |
dpm install dpm |
Once you have DPM installed, you can install the Horse package by running the following command:
1 |
dpm install horse |
This will download and install the Horse package, along with any dependencies.
Once the Horse package is installed, you can use it in your Delphi application by adding the “Horse” unit to the uses clause of your code. Here is an example of a simple Horse web server that listens on port 8080 and responds with “Hello, World!” to any request:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 |
uses Horse; var App: THorse; begin App := THorse.Create(8080); try App.Get(‘/’, procedure(Req: THorseRequest; Res: THorseResponse; Next: TProc) begin Res.Send(‘Hello, World!’); end); App.Start; finally App.Free; end; end. |
