Here are the steps to set up your KLone project with the provided Makefile content:

Step 1: Create the Project Directory and Makefile
  1. Create an empty directory and change into it:
mkdir my_klone_project
cd my_klone_project
  • 1.
  • 2.
  1. Create the Makefile:
nano Makefile
  • 1.
  1. Write the content into the Makefile:
KLONE_VERSION = 3.1.0

# webapp content is in webapp/ the current dir
WEBAPP_DIR = $(CURDIR)/webapp

include klapp.mk

klapp.mk:
	wget -O $@ -c http://koanlogic.com/klone/klapp-2.0.0.mk
  • 1.
  • 2.
  • 3.
  • 4.
  • 5.
  • 6.
  • 7.
  • 8.
  • 9.
Step 2: Bootstrap the Project
  1. Run make to bootstrap the project:
make
  • 1.

This will download the klapp.mk file and set up the necessary build environment.

Step 3: Create the Web Application Directory and Content
  1. Create the webapp directory:
mkdir webapp
  • 1.
  1. Create a sample KLone template:
nano webapp/index.klt
  • 1.

Add the following content:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>KLone Web Application</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Welcome to KLone Web Application</h1>
    <p>This is a sample KLone template.</p>
</body>
</html>
  • 1.
  • 2.
  • 3.
  • 4.
  • 5.
  • 6.
  • 7.
  • 8.
  • 9.
  • 10.
Step 4: Build and Run the KLone Application
  1. Run make to build the KLone application:
make
  • 1.

This will compile your KLone application and generate the necessary executable.

  1. Run the KLone web server:
./kloned
  • 1.
Step 5: Access the KLone Application
  1. Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8080. You should see the sample KLone template you created in index.klt.

This setup provides a basic KLone project structure. You can expand upon this by adding more templates and logic to your webapp directory, following the guidelines in the  KLone tutorial.

Absolutely, using KLone within Docker for microservices is a great approach due to its lightweight and integrated nature. Here’s how you can set up a KLone-based microservice in Docker:

Step 1: Create a KLone Application
  1. Create the project directory:
mkdir my_klone_app
cd my_klone_app
  • 1.
  • 2.
  1. Create the KLone configuration file (klone.conf):
nano klone.conf
  • 1.

Add the following content:

server {
    listen 8080;
    root "./";
}
  • 1.
  • 2.
  • 3.
  • 4.
  1. Create a KLone template (index.klt):
nano index.klt
  • 1.

Add the following content:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>KLone POST Example</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Submit a POST Request</h1>
    <form action="/post.klt" method="post">
        Name: <input type="text" name="name"><br>
        Value: <input type="text" name="value"><br>
        <input type="submit" value="Submit">
    </form>
</body>
</html>

  • 8.
  • 9.
  • 10.
  • 11.
  • 12.
  • 13.
  • 14.
  1. Create a KLone template for handling POST requests (post.klt):
nano post.klt
  • 1.

Add the following content:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>KLone POST Example</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Submitted Data</h1>
    <p>Name: <?code klone_printf("%s", klone_req_get_var("name")); ?></p>
    <p>Value: <?code klone_printf("%s", klone_req_get_var("value")); ?></p>
    <p><a href="/">Back to form</a></p>
</body>
</html>

Step 2: Create a Dockerfile
  1. Create the Dockerfile:
nano Dockerfile
  • 1.

Add the following content:

FROM ubuntu:latest

# Install necessary packages
RUN apt-get update && \
    apt-get install -y build-essential wget tar && \
    rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

# Download and install KLone
RUN wget http://www.koanlogic.com/klone/klone-2.1.0.tar.gz && \
    tar -xzf klone-2.1.0.tar.gz && \
    cd klone-2.1.0 && \
    ./configure && \
    make && \
    make install && \
    cd .. && \
    rm -rf klone-2.1.0 klone-2.1.0.tar.gz

# Copy the KLone application
COPY . /usr/local/klone

# Set the working directory
WORKDIR /usr/local/klone

# Compile the KLone application
RUN klone -v -c klone.conf -o kloned

# Expose the port
EXPOSE 8080

# Run the KLone web server
CMD ["./kloned"]

Step 3: Build and Run the Docker Container
  1. Build the Docker image:
docker build -t my_klone_app .
  • 1.
  1. Run the Docker container:
docker run -d -p 8080:8080 my_klone_app
  • 1.
Step 4: Test the KLone Application
  1. Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8080. You should see the form created in index.klt.
  2. Fill in the form with some data and click the submit button. You should see the data displayed on the resulting page generated by post.klt.

This setup shows how to create a lightweight microservice using KLone within Docker. The integrated approach of KLone, combined with the containerization provided by Docker, makes it an excellent choice for developing and deploying efficient microservices.
