If cowboy_static is initialized with `{priv_file, ...}` or `{priv_dir,
...}`, it is now able to read files from Erlang application .ez
archives.
When serving a file from an archive, the #file_info{} comes from the
archive, not the contained file, except for the size and type. The
erl_prim_loader module is used to read the latter's #file_info{} and the
actual file content (ie. sendfile(2) is not used in this case).
(cherry picked from commit 2166733628)
Fixes#839 when 'Connection: Keep-Alive' wasn't sent in a HTTP/1.0
response. Now the usage of 'Connection' header is consistent with
current protocol version: when this header is not specified explicitly
in the response, HTTP/1.0 implies 'Connection: close' and HTTP/1.1
implies 'Connection: Keep-Alive'. So if current 'Connection' value
matches the default value of current protocol, we won't state obvious
fact in the response; and vice versa.
Amended to fix and improve tests, and revert the variable name
change from HTTP11Headers to StdHeaders. I think it's still good
to leave it as is because it's not really a standard header for
HTTP/1.0, and it's gone from HTTP/2 entirely.
Only go for keep-alive if they submit a 'connection: keep-alive' header
in the request, keep behaviour the same otherwise.
The new RFC 7230 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-6.3)
states:
If the received protocol is HTTP/1.0, the "keep-alive" connection
option is present, the recipient is not a proxy, and the recipient
wishes to honor the HTTP/1.0 "keep-alive" mechanism, the
connection will persist after the current response;
Even though clients are discouraged from doing so in Appendix A.1.2
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#appendix-A.1.2)
This is a first step to improve the HTTP status codes returned
by Cowboy on crashes. We will tweak it over time.
Also fixes a small bug where two replies may have been sent
when using loop handlers under rare conditions.
The options were added to allow developers to fix timeout
issues when reading large bodies. It is also a cleaner and
easier to extend interface.
This commit deprecates the functions init_stream, stream_body
and skip_body which are no longer needed. They will be removed
in 1.0.
The body function can now take an additional argument that is a
list of options. The body_qs, part and part_body functions can
too and simply pass this argument down to the body call.
There are options for disabling the automatic continue reply,
setting a maximum length to be returned (soft limit), setting
the read length and read timeout, and setting the transfer and
content decode functions.
The return value of the body and body_qs have changed slightly.
The body function now works similarly to the part_body function,
in that it returns either an ok or a more tuple depending on
whether there is additional data to be read. The body_qs function
can return a badlength tuple if the body is too big. The default
size has been increased from 16KB to 64KB.
The default read length and timeout have been tweaked and vary
depending on the function called.
The body function will now adequately process chunked bodies,
which means that the body_qs function will too. But this means
that the behavior has changed slightly and your code should be
tested properly when updating your code.
The body and body_qs still accept a length as first argument
for compatibility purpose with older code. Note that this form
is deprecated and will be removed in 1.0. The part and part_body
function, being new and never having been in a release yet, have
this form completely removed in this commit.
Again, while most code should work as-is, you should make sure
that it actually does before pushing this to production.
Adds a loop_handler test suite that runs all tests under HTTP, HTTPS,
SPDY each with and without the compress option enabled.
Fixes output filtering that used to filter more than it should have.
This forces us to parse the string sent by the emulator, which means
it's probably not perfect yet. But it should at least not hide errors
we want to see.
Fix a crash in the output filtering code that entirely disabled
output. Now when there is a crash the normal tty output is restored.
Handlers are now in test/handlers/ as they can be reused between
suites.
Only generate a single certificate for the whole ct run to speed
things up when we got many different test groups each needing
certificates.
The old undocumented API is removed entirely.
While a documentation exists for the new API, it will not
be considered set in stone until further testing has been
performed, and a file upload example has been added.
The new API should be a little more efficient than the
old API, especially with smaller messages.
Previously if a loop handler received the timeout message from a
previous request on the same connection the socket would be set to
{active, once} incorrectly - when a socket packet was already in the
message queue. This second packet would not be added to the buffer
before a Handler:info/3 call if a user message was in the message
queue before both socket packets.
This is an undocumented workaround to disable chunks when using HTTP/1.1.
It can be used when the client advertises itself as HTTP/1.1 despite not
understanding the chunked transfer-encoding.
Usage can be found looking at the test for it. When activated, Cowboy
will still advertise itself as HTTP/1.1, but will send the body the same
way it would if it was HTTP/1.0.
Changes include:
* Much simplified route configuration.
* Etag generation is now enabled by default.
* Web mimetypes are now detected by default. A bigger list of
mimetypes can be detected without any additional library.
* Mimetypes can no longer be specified as a list. Copying this
list for new connections is too costy. You can easily convert
it into a function and pass that function to the handler instead.
* You can however specify a single hardcoded mimetype. Mostly
useful when serving a single file, like an index.html file,
to avoid extra operations.
* Specifying a path as a list of tokens is not possible anymore.
Use either a binary or a string.
* Using a private directory will not work if the application
was not started properly. Cowboy will not attempt to find
the location of this directory if the VM doesn't know it,
as this caused issues in some setups.
* Overall the code has been much simplified and clarified,
and of course has now been documented.
Previously cowboy_http:te_chunked/2 would enter an incorrect state if
it tried to parse an incomplete chunk when the length was known from the
partial chunk.
Previosuly cowboy_http:te_chunked/2 expected the trailing "\r\n" to
always be present if chunk body was present in the buffer. This is not
guaranteed and so this commit accommodates that situation.
Sometimes the localhost interface has a different name from "lo",
this fix adds a helper function to read the MTU value when the
interface name starts with "lo".
Adds a new type of streaming response fun. It can be set in a similar
way to a streaming body fun with known length:
Req2 = cowboy_req:set_resp_body_fun(chunked, StreamFun, Req)
The fun, StreamFun, should accept a fun as its single argument. This
fun, ChunkFun, is used to send chunks of iodata:
ok = ChunkFun(IoData)
ChunkFun should not be called with an empty binary or iolist as this
will cause HTTP 1.1 clients to believe the stream is over. The final (0
length) chunk will be sent automatically - even if it has already been
sent - assuming no exception is raised.
Also note that the connection will close after the last chunk for HTTP
1.0 clients.
Previously http_SUITE:echo_body/1 and http_SUITE:check_raw_status/1
returned large values. Common test would then try to write these to the
logs causing tests to take a long time and use lots of memory.
Instead it will always go through content_types_accepted and it is
up to the resource code to do any creation and to return the created
path if the method is POST and the client should be redirected to the
created resource's location.
This removes the meta value 'put_path' as it is not needed anymore.
This fixes an issue with PATCH where content types were not normalized.
For get_type_provided:
'*' will be match any parameters of media-range in "accept" header.
If '*' matched, then '*' is replaced by the matching parameters.
If Accept header is missing and '*' using, then in media_type in parameters
will be '*' and reply content-type will be without any parameters.
For content_types_accepted:
'*' will be match any parameters in "content-type" header.
We now read from the socket to be able to detect errors or TCP close
events, and buffer the data if any. Once the data receive goes over
a certain limit, which defaults to 5000 bytes, we simply close the
connection with an {error, overflow} reason.
