This function accepts
This function accepts a servlet function and provides a function that accepts a request and returns the answer the servlet for that request. This interaction function has many possible calling patterns:
@itemize[
@item{No arguments: a call to the root URL path with no bindings.}
@item{At least one argument: this may be a string, URL, or a request data structure.}
@item{Two arguments: the first argument must be a string or a URL, but the second argument can specify the request bindings.}
@item{The optional @racket[#:raw?] keyword controls whether an X-expression or a byte string is returned as a result.}
]
}
This facility is designed to be used in concert with a technique of extracting continuation URLs and relevant values; @racketmodname[xml/path] is one way to do this. Here is an extended example that tests an Add-Two-Numbers.com:
@(require (for-label xml/path
rackunit
racket/list
racket/promise))
@racketblock[
(define (test-add-two-numbers -s>)
(define x (random 500))
(define xs (string->bytes/utf-8 (number->string x)))
(define y (random 500))
(define ys (string->bytes/utf-8 (number->string y)))
(define r0 (-s>))
(define k0 (se-path* '(form #:action) r0))
(define i0 (se-path* '(form input #:name) r0))
(define r1
(-s> (format "~a?~a=~a" k0 i0 xs)
(list (make-binding:form (string->bytes/utf-8 i0) xs))))
(define k1 (se-path* '(form #:action) r1))
(define i1 (se-path* '(form input #:name) r1))
(define r2
