JSesh Web is a web wrapper for the Egyptian hieroglyphic editor and hieroglyph rendering library JSesh created by Serge Rosmorduc.
JSesh Web is a simple web app written in Clojure and based on Jetty web server with Ring middleware. The app takes Manuel de Codage transliteration as input via http requests and returns a base64-encoded png image. The working implementation of the app is deployed to Heroku: https://pure-sierra-27254.herokuapp.com/ An example usage is https://pure-sierra-27254.herokuapp.com/?mdc=<p:t-H> (with URI components escaped accordingly). Optional parameters include height of the output image and centered=true, which enables centered vertical alignment of small signs (by default they are aligned to the bottom).
An example client web-page encapsulating the output into an <img> tag can be found at https://eurphon.info/static/egyptcl/mdctest.html.
You can run the app locally by executing
git clone https://github.com/macleginn/jsesh-web.git
cd jsesh-web
lein run -m hieroglyphs.web [optional-port-number]The default port number is 5000.
Alternatively, compile the project with lein uberjar and run it with java -cp YOUR_PATH/hieroglyphs-standalone.jar clojure.main -m hieroglyphs.web.
