Overview of this book

Reactive programming is an effective way to build highly responsive applications with an easy-to-maintain code base. This book covers the essential functional reactive concepts that will help you build highly concurrent, event-driven, and asynchronous applications in a simpler and less error-prone way. C++ Reactive Programming begins with a discussion on how event processing was undertaken by different programming systems earlier. After a brisk introduction to modern C++ (C++17), you’ll be taken through language-level concurrency and the lock-free programming model to set the stage for our foray into the Functional Programming model. Following this, you’ll be introduced to RxCpp and its programming model. You’ll be able to gain deep insights into the RxCpp library, which facilitates reactive programming. You’ll learn how to deal with reactive programming using Qt/C++ (for the desktop) and C++ microservices for the Web. By the end of the book, you will be well versed with advanced reactive programming concepts in modern C++ (C++17).

Testing the HTTP server using CURL and POSTMAN


CURL is a command-line tool that is portable across Windows, GNU Linux, macOS, and other POSIX-compliant systems. The tool helps to transfer data using various TCP/IP-based application protocols. Some of the common protocols supported include HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, FTPS, SCP, SFTP, TFTP, DICT, TELNET, and LDAP.

We will be using the CURL tool to test the HTTP server we wrote. The command-line utility can be invoked by giving the requisite command-line parameters to place HTTP requests with associated verbs. We give the command-line parameters for invoking the GET and the PUT request to the server we wrote:

curl -X PUT http://localhost:34567/DBDEMO/  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"SimpleContent":"Value"}'curl -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json"  http://localhost:34567/DBDEMO/

Embed the previous command in a batch file or shell script, depending upon your platform. The output on the console should be as follows:

PUT Operation Succeeded...
