Quick Overview

Shortcuts:

Oat++ High Level Overview - Get a quick overview of Oat++ features.
Example Project - A complete example of a "CRUD" service (UserService) built with Oat++. REST + Swagger-UI + SQLite.

Build Powerful API And Document It With Swagger-UI

See ApiController for more details.

ENDPOINT_INFO(getUserById) {
  info->summary = "Get one User by userId";

  info->addResponse<Object<UserDto>>(Status::CODE_200, "application/json");
  info->addResponse<Object<StatusDto>>(Status::CODE_404, "application/json");
  info->addResponse<Object<StatusDto>>(Status::CODE_500, "application/json");

  info->pathParams["userId"].description = "User Identifier";
}
ENDPOINT("GET", "users/{userId}", getUserById,
         PATH(Int32, userId))
{
  return createDtoResponse(Status::CODE_200, m_userService.getUserById(userId));
}

Access Databases And Keep Your Data Consistent

See Oat++ ORM for more details.

QUERY(createUser,
      "INSERT INTO users (username, email, role) VALUES (:username, :email, :role);",
      PARAM(oatpp::String, username), 
      PARAM(oatpp::String, email), 
      PARAM(oatpp::Enum<UserRoles>::AsString, role))

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: "Oat++" name?

"Oat" is something light, organic, and green. It can be easily cooked and consumed with no effort.
"++" gives a hint that it is "something" for C++.

Q: What is the main area of Oat++ application?

Oat++ is used for many different purposes, from building REST APIs that run on embedded devices to building microservices and highly-loaded cloud applications.

But the majority of use cases appears to be in IoT and Robotics.

Q: How portable is Oat++?

Theoretically, Oat++ can be easily ported everywhere where you have threads and network stack. With an additional comparably small effort, it can be ported almost everywhere depending on how much you strip it and what would be the final binary size.

See supported platforms for additional info.

Q: What is the size of a minimal Oat++ application?

About 1Mb, depending on C/C++ std-lib and oatpp version.

Q: Which Oat++ API to choose, Simple or Async?

Always choose Simple API wherever possible. Simple API is more developed and makes the code cleaner.

Async API is designed for small, specific tasks that run at high concurrency levels ex.:

Serving file downloads to a large number of concurrent users (1K users and more).
Streaming to a large number of clients (1K or more).
Websocket Chat servers.

For all other purposes use simple API.
