HTTP listener for scanner?

[Bill Harrelson]

Is there an HTTP listener for the scanner that would accept a POST message?  I started looking through the code and saw some things that looked like there might be.  (I don't want a SOAP listener, - well, I do, but separately). 

Or, do I need to write a servlet that drops it into a directory?  

Thanks

There is already a servlet in the web module that does this.  I can't remember the name of the servlet, but take a look at the code in the web module.  It does just what you need.

Thanks Bruce and Dejan, I looked at the code and it does seem to do the right things.  I presume from the code that it's looking for a pipeline name as a parameter on the POST, but I'm wondering if there's a little more configuration information anywhere for how to run babeldoc underneath Tomcat, config properties for the listener, etc.  (or do I just set BABELDOC_HOME to a Tomcat-addressable directory when I start Tomcat?)

Thanks again,

Bill

com.babeldoc.web.pipeline.servlet.HttpPostPipelineFeeder class.
This is servlet for feeding pipelines. I haven't worked with it, but I guess it should work...

There is a cataline start script in the web/bin directory that you can use to start tomcat/catalina.  I have not used it in awhile so you might need to roll up your sleeves...
