I know, I know... Why on earth would you want to run CGIs from hunchentoot? Well, while it may seem counterintuitive, I've found a need for this as I want to run the gitweb cgi interface behind hunchentoot and don't feel like setting up apache as the front-end to an otherwise happy hunchentoot site (this one), so I rigged up a little CGI interface for hunchentoot.

To use, check out the hunchentoot-cgi::create-cgi-dispatcher-and-handler function.

Ok, so I've finally gotten around to moving (at least some of) my projects over to git. The good news, besides having the code in a modern version control system, is that the repos are now publicly accessible. The list of projects can be found at:

SBCL recently removed the sb-ext:find-executable-in-search-path or whatever it was called function, so ch-util and ch-asdf were broken. The new ch-util and ch-asdf should fix that.

Ok, following closely on the heels of the last release, here are new releases of nuclblog, hunchentoot-vhost and hunchentoot-auth.

New features include:

• nuclblog now uses esc instead of str for textareas for editing blog entries so that, e.g., > doesn't get converted into > (thanks to Timothy Ritchey for the patch).
• the hunchentoot-vhost dispatch mechanism was simplified to remove the &optional vhost argument from dispatch functions, which means that standard hunchentoot dispatch functions can be used, allowing for the removal of create-virtual-host-folder-dispatcher-and-handler. Added the *virtual-host* special variable to replace the &optional vhost arg.
• Added some preliminary test code to hunchentoot-auth and exported some more symbols

The new releases can be found here:

• nuclblog 0.4.14
• hunchentoot-vhost 0.1.7
• hunchentoot-auth 0.0.11

Ok, a number of bugs and design flaws have been fixed. One can now be logged into multiple blogs on the same server with different user names and can log in and out of one without effecting the status of the other blogs. Also, some internal API cleanup for the blog handler functions. Oh, also the realm stuff in hunchentoot-auth was simplified and nuclblog now does a better job of keeping track of the information regarding which ports to use.

• nuclblog 0.4.12
• hunchentoot-vhost 0.1.4
• hunchentoot-auth 0.0.9

I just hope Nate Longshore's ankle isn't hurt too badly or it will be an interesting next couple weeks.

Nice play by Ezeff to seal the win.

After I released 0.4.5, it was pointed out to me that there is a new cl-who that uses *downcase-tokens-p* instead of *downcase-tags-p*. nuclblog 0.4.6 has been changed to address this and, as a consequence, requires cl-who 0.11.0 or later.

Also, as a bonus, there's a new release of ch-util (0.3.3) that cleans up the build system a bit, removing some hacks I thought were neat when I was first learning ASDF and restoring buildability on (at least some) non-SBCL lisps. Thanks to Michele Pasin for the bug reports.

last time it was hunchentoot-vhost (of which there is a new release as well), this time it's hunchentoot-auth. Along the way, there's a new nuclblog release that supports the latest and greatest virtual hosting and user authentication facilities in hunchentoot-vhost and hunchentoot-auth, respectively.
