Synopse Open Source

mORMot is a general purpose Open Source library, which features some advanced cryptographic primitives. It is written in modern object pascal, with some assembly for its core process. It is used since years in several security-sensitive projects, and has been audited internally by at least one billion dollar company.

We already spoke about this a few years ago. In the meanwhile, the implementation details of our CSPRNG (Cryptographically Secure Pseudorandom Number Generator), as it is currently in the mORMot 2 repository, have been tuned and proven. Time to share some more information.

It is time for a new mORMot release!

OpenAPI, which was formerly called Swagger, is a set of specifications to encode the server API endpoints definitions into text, mostly JSON.
From this reference text, you can generate client code to access the service, in a vast number of languages.

Delphi seems to be far behind other languages, in terms of this code generation. I found nothing even working for FPC.
Since we needed it for our internal tools at Tranquil IT, we just published the new mormot.net.openapi.pas Open Source unit, which is quite a game changer. Thanks Andreas for starting this project, and testing it in its early age!

Last year 2023 was perhaps not the best ever, and, just after Christmas, we think about all people we know still in war or distress.
But in the small mORMot world, 2023 was a fine millesima. A lot of exciting features, a pretty good rank in benchmarks, and a proof of being ready for the next decade.

For this new year, we would like to introduce you to a new mORMot baby: the mget command line tool, a HTTP/HTTPS web client with peer-to-peer caching.
It is just a wrapper around a set of the new PeerCache feature, built-in the framework web client class - so you can use it in your own projects if you need to.
