Welcome to the tinystruct framework documentation. This documentation provides comprehensive guidance for using and developing with the tinystruct framework.

欢迎查阅 tinystruct 框架文档。本文档为使用和开发 tinystruct 框架提供全面的指导。

• Asymmetric RSA & Configurable JWT Security: RSA public/private key pairs and flexible configuration via application.properties
• Advanced HTTP Server Security: Host header filtering (server.name), path traversal prevention, and secure cookies
• Decoupled Architecture: Domain-independent HttpServer and SSEPushManager for seamless multi-domain deployments
• Enhanced MCP & AI Support: Overloaded tool methods, schema merging, idle session watchdogs, and auto-cleanup
• ANSI Console Logging: Modern color-coded console logs with Java 9+ StackWalker caller tracing
• Configurable HTTP Timeouts: Custom connect and read timeouts on URLRequest and HTTPHandler
• High Performance: Handling over 86,000 requests per second with ultra-low latency (~17ms)
• Detailed Release Notes: See What's New in 1.7.29 (中文版)

The fastest way to get started is using the tinystruct archetype:

# Follow the archetype to create a project quickly
https://github.com/tinystruct/tinystruct-archetype

Add the dependency to your pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.tinystruct</groupId>
    <artifactId>tinystruct</artifactId>
    <version>1.7.29</version>
    <classifier>jar-with-dependencies</classifier>
</dependency>

package tinystruct.examples;

import org.tinystruct.AbstractApplication;
import org.tinystruct.ApplicationException;
import org.tinystruct.system.annotation.Action;
import org.tinystruct.system.annotation.Action.Mode;

public class Example extends AbstractApplication {

    @Override
    public void init() {
        // Initialization code
    }

    @Override
    public String version() {
        return "1.0";
    }

    @Action("praise")
    public String praise() {
        return "Praise the Lord!";
    }

    @Action("say")
    public String say(String words) {
        return words;
    }

    // HTTP method-specific actions
    @Action(value = "hello", mode = Mode.HTTP_GET)
    public String helloGet() {
        return "GET";
    }

    @Action(value = "hello", mode = Mode.HTTP_POST)
    public String helloPost() {
        return "POST";
    }
}

1. No main() method required - Applications start directly with CLI commands
2. Unified CLI and Web - Write once, run anywhere (CLI or Web)
3. Built-in lightweight HTTP servers - Netty, Tomcat, or Undertow
4. Minimal configuration - No excessive XML or YAML
5. Performance-first architecture - Zero overhead, no reflection-based scanning
6. AI-ready - Designed for AI integration with MCP support

Running 30s test @ http://127.0.0.1:8080/?q=say/Praise the Lord!
12 threads and 400 connections

Requests/sec:  86753.98
Transfer/sec:  17.46MB
Latency:       17.44ms (avg)

tinystruct follows a modular, action-oriented architecture that enables:

• Code reuse between CLI and web applications
• Unified interface through @Action annotation
• Plugin-based extensibility
• Low-latency direct method invocation
• Flexible deployment options (monolithic, microservices, or hybrid)
