So, I've been using rhino to whip together my java experiments lately. Setup is trivial, you just need java and js.jar.
- download rhino
- extract js.jar (at least)
- for an interactive shell, run java -jar js.jar
- or run a script using java -jar js.jar some-javascript-file.js
Once you have rhino, all sorts of java-ish things can be whipped up as quick hacks.
A quick http server, for example, goes something like this:
function main() { var s = new java.net.ServerSocket(8080) while (true) { var client = s.accept() var sc = new java.util.Scanner(client.getInputStream()) var method = sc.next() var path = '.' + sc.next() var out = new java.io.PrintWriter( new java.io.OutputStreamWriter(client.getOutputStream())) try { var f = new java.io.FileInputStream(path) out.println("HTTP/1.1 200 Success") out.println("Content-Type: text/html") out.println() for (var c = f.read(); c != -1; c = f.read()) out.write(c) } catch (e if e.javaException instanceof java.io.FileNotFoundException) { out.println("HTTP/1.1 404 File not found") out.println("Content-Type: text/html") out.println() out.println("<html><body>") out.println("<h1>File not found</h1>") out.println("</body></html>") } out.flush() out.close() } } main()
Wait, what about a threaded server you say? Try this on for size.
function main() { var s = new java.net.ServerSocket(8080) while (true) { var client = s.accept() var t = java.lang.Thread(function() { var sc = new java.util.Scanner(client.getInputStream()) var method = sc.next() var path = '.' + sc.next() var out = new java.io.PrintWriter( new java.io.OutputStreamWriter(client.getOutputStream())) try { var f = new java.io.FileInputStream(path) out.println("HTTP/1.1 200 Success") out.println("Content-Type: text/html") out.println() for (var c = f.read(); c != -1; c = f.read()) out.write(c) } catch (e if e.javaException instanceof java.io.FileNotFoundException) { out.println("HTTP/1.1 404 File not found") out.println("Content-Type: text/html") out.println() out.println("<html><body>") out.println("<h1>File not found</h1>") out.println("</body></html>") } out.flush() out.close() } ) t.start() } } main()
