View Source 🪐 Orbit - a Gemini app framework for Elixir
A simple framework for a simple protocol.
🚧 🚧 🚧 Alpha software - under active delopment 🚧 🚧 🚧
Orbit borrows a lot of ideas from Plug and Phoenix.
The foundation consists of:
Orbit.Capsule
- TLS endpoint that accepts incoming connections (likePhoenix.Endpoint
andcowboy
combined)Orbit.Request
- encapsulates the request-response lifecyle (likePlug.Conn
)
Your application implements:
Orbit.Pipe
- the behaviour for request middleware (likePlug
)Orbit.Router
- defines pipelines and routesOrbit.Controller
- processes requests and render viewsOrbit.View
- renders Gemtext content
Some additional niceties:
Orbit.Static
- serves up static contentOrbit.Status
- applies response status codes
