Additionally to just sending the files to the requesting client, diner is able to move this job to AddOns to process them before sending. When such an AddOn is called depends on the MIME-type of the requested file and which AddOn you have configured for this type. To learn more about how to configure this, please have a look at the Configuration chapter.
Documentation about how to write your own AddOns will be available with the next release of diner or in a separate SDK. Until then, please contact us to get the necessary information and examples.

In the standard diner package, two of those AddOns are already included:

CGI This AddOn interprets the requested file as an executable and sends the output of this program to the client. It conforms to the rules of the common gateway interface definition.
InlineModuleInvocation This module is diners powerful answer to the classic concepts of server side parsed HTML, done the BeOS way.
