Ways to implement a JSON RESTful service in C/C++
there are a small number of libraries that support creating rest services with c, e.g. restinio:
#include <restinio/all.hpp>int main(){ restinio::run( restinio::on_this_thread() .port(8080) .address("localhost") .request_handler([](auto req) { return req->create_response().set_body("Hello, World!").done(); })); return 0;}
You could look at ffead-cpp. Apart from providing support for json and restfull web services it also includes more features. This framework may be too heavy weight for your situation though.
