[fpc-pascal] Developing a mini ERP / web based development

[Zamrony P. Juhara]

Live example of https://github.com/fanoframework/fano-app
when deploy and setup correctly with web server can be access here https://fano.juhara.id/
So you will be able to access for example
https://fano.juhara.id/hello/darius or https://fano.juhara.id/hello/darius/json (JSON output)

Unless you sent POST request, you will get exception EMethodNotAllowed if you try to browse to https://fano.juhara.id/hi/darius because route for hi/{name} only defined for POST request.

 Hi Darius,
I am author of Fano Framework. I encourage people to try Fano Framework, but as of now, I would not advise you to use it on production setup. While many of web framework features are already built, they have not been tested on production.
The error

Exception class : ERouteHandlerNotFoundMessage : Route not found. Method: GET Uri: /cgi-bin/app.cgi
actually tells that application is working as intended. If you use example application
https://github.com/fanoframework/fano-app 
then routes that can be accessed is defined in
https://github.com/fanoframework/fano-app/blob/master/app/Routes/routes.inc





So you will be able to access application through following urls
http://[hostname]/ (GET)
http://[hostname]/hello/{name} (GET/POST)
http://[hostname]/hello/{name}/json (GET/POST) => output is JSON for example http://[hostname]/hello/darius
http://[hostname]/hi/{name} (POST)

The compiler and IDE of choice are of course FreePascal & Lazarus. I’m still thinking about the direction to go exactly with this and I was hoping to get some feedback/support from the community here as I always have gotten over the years.

ExtPascal was a dead end and is now effectively dead (unless I am
misinformed).

I can't inform you about fano.

As for the others:

Brook & Pas2js are definitely worth investigating.

Brook is a long-standing server platform for FPC.

pas2js is used as the basis for TMS Web Core (a commercial product for
Delphi/lazarus. pas2js is meanwhile very mature. (I use it myself extensively :))
You must use this if you wish to include a lot of browser-side
functionality.

If it is for charity, you could try getting a TMS Web core license for free.
Programming then becomes like creating a desktop program; drag&drop.

For server-side database Access, there is sqldbRestBridge. 
It is fairly new, but is scheduled to be included in TMS WEB core.

You can also simply program using fcl-web: simple HTTP request/response. 
All the others are based on top of it, if I am correct.

If you use bare-bones fcl-web, it's a bit like PHP: you always generate the
full HTML on the server.

Doubtlessly, there are other frameworks to work with. I work with the above
ones (and developed 3 our of 4 :)) so I am of course giving a biased view...
