Installation

Add a Cork package to your project via dotnet add package, paket add, etc. For example:

dotnet add package Cork

Getting Started

open Cork
open Cork.Connection

// new class type extending abstract
type MyCork () =
  inherit BaseCork()

  override __.Call _options conn =
    conn
    |> resp 200 "Hello world!"
    |> Ok

let corks = [
  cork MyCork defaultCorkOptions
  cork TestCork defaultCorkOptions
]

// this should be updated with real connection information
let conn = Connection.defaultConnection

conn |> run corks

Examples

For a full end-to-end demonstration, look at one of the below example projects:

• Cork.Example.AspNetCore - Minimal ASP.NET Core project using Cork, created with dotnet new web -lang f# and modified to use Cork.AspNetCore.
• Cork.Example.Fable.Http - Minimal Node.js project using Cork, created with dotnet new fable-library -lang f# and modified to use Cork.Fable.Http.

TODO

• Convert Makefile to FAKE script

• Expand ASP.NET middleware to use more than HttpContext API

  • Create Connection helpers
  • Map data between Connection and HttpContext

• Test existing code

• Finish documentation for existing code

• Publish to Nuget?

• Support Suave?

• Enhance C# interop

• Investigate if a computation expression would be beneficial to offer. Potentially:

  let corks =
    cork_builder {
      cork CorkName, options
      cork AnotherCork
    }
