Part 1: Introduction

Every single website hosted with swebs has a sitefile associated with it.

sitefiles specify the layout of the hosted site. It basically tells swebs what to do to get the response.

sitefiles consist of commands, which are of the form

[action] [arguments]

sitefiles also allow comments with #

Actions and arguments are made of tokens. A token is some text surrounded by whitespace, where backslashes are always escaped literally.

For example:

token -> "token" token\ with\ escapes -> 'token with escapes' token\\with\\backslashes -> 'token\with\backslashes'

Part 2: Commands

set [variable] [value] - sets some local variable for the following pages
define [variable] [value] - sets some global variable
read [http path] [file path] - if the requested path matches [http path], return the contents of [file path]. If [file path] is a directory, then the http path is appended to [file path] and that is read instead.
linked - Run getResponse() from the library loaded from the library global variable
throw [http path] [error code] - If the requested path matches [http path], send back the http error code [error code]. For standardization purposes, these error codes are just the number.
declare [transport] [port] - Declares that port [port] will be used with transport [transport] where [transport] is one of TCP, TLS.
