C++ web framework like spring for Java

Is there any web framework in C++ which is like Spring for Java, i am currently working on an application which is in the web domain. Our existing applications are all developed in c++, and we are looking for some framework which has a small learning curve and provides exciting features. Has anyone come across such a framework. Please let me know.

If its DI you are looking for; Dependency injection in C++ is not really done a lot, because although you can inject a pointer in to a class, its not easy to say who's gonna free it. There is already a SO discussion here .

I think the opensource project 'Drogon' is what you want. Drogon can be found in github, Here's the descript of Drogon:

Drogon is a C++14/14-based HTTP application framework. Drogon can be used to easily build various types of web application server programs using C++. Drogon's main application platform is Linux, it also supports Mac OS/UNIX. Its main features are as follows:

  • Use a non-blocking I/O network lib based on epoll (kqueue under MacOS/FreeBSD) to provide high-concurrency, high-performance network IO;
  • Provide a completely asynchronous programming mode;
  • Support Http1.0/1.1 (server side and client side);
  • Based on template, a simple reflection mechanism is implemented to completely decouple the main program framework, controllers and views.
  • Support cookies and built-in sessions;
  • Support back-end rendering, the controller generates the data to the view to generate the Html page, the view is described by a "JSP-like" CSP file, the C++ code is embedded into the Html page by the CSP tag, and the drogon command-line tool automatically generates the C++ code file for compilation;
  • Support view page dynamic loading (dynamic compilation and loading at runtime);
  • Provide a convenient and flexible routing solution from the path to the controller handler;
  • Support filter chains to facilitate the execution of unified logic (such as login verification, Http Method constraint verification, etc.) before controllers;
  • Support https (based on OpenSSL);
  • Support WebSocket (server side and client side);
  • Support JSON format request and response, very friendly to the Restful API application development;
  • Support file download and upload;
  • Support gzip compression transmission;
  • Support pipelining;
  • Provide a lightweight command line tool, drogon_ctl, to simplify the creation of various classes in Drogon and the generation of view code;
  • Support non-blocking I/O based asynchronously reading and writing database (PostgreSQL and MySQL(MariaDB) database);
  • Support asynchronously reading and writing sqlite3 database based on thread pool;
  • Support ARM Architecture;
  • Provide a convenient lightweight ORM implementation that supports for regular object-to-database bidirectional mapping;
  • Support plugins which can be installed by the configuration file at load time;
  • Support AOP with build-in joinpoints.
