I have previously written a basic JSON interface to JSword just to prove to people it could be done. I don't know if the code still lives anywhere, but it's been done. It's extremely straightforward to do. It took me all of about a day to get it running fine.
The same could be done in Sword if you wanted to just use the Python bindings and use any of the very popular Python app frameworks. That's probably the direction I would go if you really plan for this to be a permanent and maintained thing. C++ on the web is something which really should be reserved for the very most performance sensitive things. Otherwise, avail yourself of the ease of binding C++ applications into another language like Python or PHP and allow those languages and frameworks to handle the web part of the traffic. --Greg On Tue, Jun 12, 2018 at 9:59 AM Daniel Bennett <danb...@umich.edu> wrote: > Hi everyone, > > So, I talked to Troy about making a JSON output option for C++ Sword. > > Any thoughts?
