Its canonical site emphasizes security, auditability, and use in the BCHS stack. ### Projektgeschichte The public GitHub repository was created in January 2016, while the project site serves as the canonical release and documentation surface. kcgi grew around a conservative C web-programming model: parse CGI/FastCGI requests, validate inputs, produce HTTP output, and keep the untrusted request path small enough to audit. The release archive shows a long 0.x series before 1.0.0 on November 10, 2025. Notable evolution includes bearer-token validation in 2021, seccomp maintenance changes in 2021, asynchronous FastCGI descriptor support in 2023, CORS header support in 2024, and fetch metadata/Priority header support in the 1.0.0 release. ### Adoptionsgeschichte The official installation page names system packages for OpenBSD, FreeBSD, Homebrew, Arch Linux, and other systems. The batch input also records Alpine, Homebrew, and Nix packages, reflecting its niche but durable role in BSD-flavored C web stacks. ### Wie es verwendet wird kcgi is used as a C/C++ library rather than primarily as a standalone command. The documentation centers on CGI and FastCGI request parsing, HTTP headers and bodies, typed input validation, formatted writers for JSON/XML/HTML output, compression, authentication helpers, and sandboxing or process separation for untrusted input. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren kcgi is interesting to package nerds because it preserves a small-C, manpage-first, BSD-style approach to web development while still being packaged for modern Unix systems. Its release archive is unusually explicit about ABI, platform, and security tradeoffs. ### Zeitleiste - 2016-01-20: GitHub repository created. - 2021-05-08: 0.12.5 added bearer-token authorization support. - 2021-09-23: 0.13.0 changed Linux seccomp defaults. - 2023-11-19: 0.13.1 added asynchronous FastCGI descriptor support. - 2025-11-10: 1.0.0 release published. - 2025-11-17: 1.0.1 hot-fix release published. ### Related projects - The project site groups kcgi with the BCHS-oriented BSD.lv tools sqlbox and openradtool, and its README notes development primarily on OpenBSD. ### Quellen - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise library-like package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - library-like package without higher-risk signals ## Details aus der Quelldatenbank - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** kcgi - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Nix - kcgi: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/kc/kcgi/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - apk - kcgi - 1.0.1-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: kcgi from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | CGI and FastCGI library for C/C++ web applications | https://kristaps.bsd.lv/kcgi - apk - kcgi-dev - 1.0.1-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: kcgi-dev from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | CGI and FastCGI library for C/C++ web applications (development files) | https://kristaps.bsd.lv/kcgi - apk - kcgi-doc - 1.0.1-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: kcgi-doc from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | CGI and FastCGI library for C/C++ web applications (documentation) | https://kristaps.bsd.lv/kcgi - apk - kcgi-static - 1.0.1-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: kcgi-static from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | CGI and FastCGI library for C/C++ web applications (static library) | https://kristaps.bsd.lv/kcgi ## Verwandte Links - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [Developer build packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/developer-build-tools/) - Matched build, compiler, generator, or developer workflow metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [bmake](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/bmake/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [angular-cli](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/angular-cli/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, web-development. - [apr](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/apr/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: c, cli, developer-tools, library. - [cdecl](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/cdecl/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: c, cli, cplusplus, developer-tools. - [check](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/check/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: c, cli, developer-tools, library. - [chmlib](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/chmlib/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: c, cli, developer-tools, library. - [commandbox](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/commandbox/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, web-development. - [cppunit](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/cppunit/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: c, cli, developer-tools, library. - [css-crush](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/css-crush/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, web-development. ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
