public interface Take

Take.

Take is a momentary snapshot of in-server reality, visible to the end user via printable Response. For example, this is a simple web server that returns "hello, world!" plain text web page:

 new FtBasic(
   new Take() {
     @Override
     public Response act(final Request req) {
       return new RsText("hello, world!");
     }
   },
   8080
  ).start(Exit.NEVER);
 }

There are a few classes that implement this interface and you can create your own. But the best way is to start with TkFork, for example:

 new FtBasic(
   new TkFork(new FkRegex("/", "hello, world!")), 8080
  ).start(Exit.NEVER);
 }

This code will start an HTTP server on port 8080 and will forward all HTTP requests to the instance of class TkFork. That object will try to find the best suitable "fork" amongst all encapsulated objects. There is only one in the example above — an instance of FkRegex.

All implementations of this interface must be immutable and thread-safe.
