2017-06-02Fix terminate not being called on connection close in HTTP/1.1Loïc Hoguin
Introduces the new stream_handler_SUITE test suite. More cases will be added later on.
2017-05-05Properly handle 101 upgrade responses for WebsocketLoïc Hoguin
2017-05-05Add inactivity_timeout and other options improvementsLoïc Hoguin
2017-05-03Kill all children processes when terminating the connectionLoïc Hoguin
This is a more or less temporary solution to an existing problem. In the future we will need to enforce a shutdown timeout for these processes.
2017-05-03Add the idle_timeout HTTP/1.1 protocol optionLoïc Hoguin
This fixes the connection being dropped because of request_timeout despite there being some active streams.
2017-04-18Make the default 204 response go through stream handlersLoïc Hoguin
2017-04-18Pass the HTTP/2 switch_protocol event to stream handlersLoïc Hoguin
To accomplish this the code for sending the 101 response was moved to the cowboy_http2 module.
2017-03-27Add the early_error cowboy_stream callbackLoïc Hoguin
This callback is called when an error occurs before the request (including headers, excluding body) was fully received. The init/3 callback will not be called. The callback receives the partial Req object (possibly empty), the reason for the error and the response command that the server will send. It allows you to be aware of the error and possibly modify the response before it is sent.
2017-02-18Allow passing options to sub protocolsLoïc Hoguin
Before this commit we had an issue where configuring a Websocket connection was simply not possible without doing magic, adding callbacks or extra return values. The init/2 function only allowed setting hibernate and timeout options. After this commit, when switching to a different type of handler you can either return {module, Req, State} or {module, Req, State, Opts} where Opts is any value (as far as the sub protocol interface is concerned) and is ultimately checked by the custom handlers. A large protocol like Websocket would accept only a map there, with many different options, while a small interface like loop handlers would allow passing hibernate and nothing else. For Websocket, hibernate must be set from the websocket_init/1 callback, because init/2 executes in a separate process. Sub protocols now have two callbacks: one with the Opts value, one without. The loop handler code was largely reworked and simplified. It does not need to manage a timeout or read from the socket anymore, it's the job of the protocol code. A lot of unnecessary stuff was therefore removed. Websocket compression must now be enabled from the handler options instead of per listener. This means that a project can have two separate Websocket handlers with different options. Compression is still disabled by default, and the idle_timeout value was changed from inifnity to 60000 (60 seconds), as that's safer and is also a good value for mobile devices.
2017-02-05Remove or fix a small number of todo commentsLoïc Hoguin
One had the todo text fixed, another had the task to do done.
2017-02-05Add missing human-readable errors for HTTP/1.1Loïc Hoguin
2017-01-20Fix protocol breaking when user tries to send empty chunkLoïc Hoguin
The {data, IsFin, Data} uses IsFin to indicate whether this is the last chunk, while chunked transfer-encoding uses the length of Data, and ends when it is 0. We must therefore not send chunks with empty data.
2017-01-16Add support for multiple stream handlersLoïc Hoguin
The stream handlers can be specified using the protocol option 'stream_handlers'. It defaults to [cowboy_stream_h]. The cowboy_stream_h module currently does not forward the calls to further stream handlers. It feels like an edge case; usually we'd want to put our own handlers between the protocol code and the request process. I am therefore going to focus on other things for now. The various types and specifications for stream handlers have been updated and the cowboy_stream module can now be safely used as a behavior. The interface might change a little more, though. This commit does not include tests or documentation. They will follow separately.
2017-01-03Return status 431 if the request header field is too largeJosé Valim
This commit changes Cowboy to follow RFC6585.
2017-01-02Welcome to 2017Loïc Hoguin
2017-01-02Remaining Dialyzer fixesLoïc Hoguin
2017-01-02Numerous Dialyzer fixesLoïc Hoguin
2016-08-11Use cow_http_hd:parse_host directlyLoïc Hoguin
Removes some duplicate code from cowboy_http.
2016-08-11Use integer_to_binary when possibleLoïc Hoguin
2016-08-10Use binary_to_integer instead of to list and backLoïc Hoguin
2016-08-10Make reply functions return ReqLoïc Hoguin
2016-08-10Add a lot of todosLoïc Hoguin
2016-08-10Add tests for responses and request body readingLoïc Hoguin
This is a large commit. The cowboy_req interface has largely changed, and will change a little more. It's possible that some examples or tests have not been converted to the new interface yet. The documentation has not yet been updated. All of this will be fixed in smaller subsequent commits. Gotta start somewhere...
2016-06-20Fix cowboy_req:peer/1Loïc Hoguin
2016-06-06HTTP/1.1: Don't send 500 errors twiceLoïc Hoguin
The stream handler is responsible for sending errors. The protocol should only send errors when no responses were sent (this might not work yet).
2016-03-13Fix more HTTP/2 handshake test casesLoïc Hoguin
2016-03-12Add initial HTTP/1.1 Upgrade to HTTP/2Loïc Hoguin
The same edge cases that fail with other handshake methods also fail here (mostly bad preface/timeouts stuff). In addition, the HTTP2-Settings header contents are currently not checked and so the related edge case tests also fail.
2016-03-10Add the beginning of the rfc7540 test suiteLoïc Hoguin
Currently only testing handshake. Tests that pass currently involve no request/response. ALPN and prior knowledge support have some edge cases left to fix. HTTP/1.1 Upgrade has not been implemented yet.
2016-03-06Fix warningsLoïc Hoguin
2016-03-05Initial commit with connection/streamsLoïc Hoguin
Breaking changes with previous commit. This is a very large change, and I am giving up on making a single commit that fixes everything. More commits will follow slowly adding back features, introducing new tests and fixing the documentation. This change contains most of the work toward unifying the interface for handling both HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2. HTTP/1.1 connections are now no longer 1 process per connection; instead by default 1 process per request is also created. This has a number of pros and cons. Because it has cons, we also allow users to use a lower-level API that acts on "streams" (requests/responses) directly at the connection process-level. If performance is a concern, one can always write a stream handler. The performance in this case will be even greater than with Cowboy 1, although all the special handlers are unavailable. When switching to Websocket, after the handler returns from init/2, Cowboy stops the stream and the Websocket protocol takes over the connection process. Websocket then calls websocket_init/2 for any additional initialization such as timers, because the process is different in init/2 and websocket_*/* functions. This however would allow us to use websocket_init/2 for sending messages on connect, instead of sending ourselves a message and be subject to races. Note that websocket_init/2 is optional. This is all a big change and while most of the tests pass, some functionality currently doesn't. SPDY is broken and will be removed soon in favor of HTTP/2. Automatic compression is currently disabled. The cowboy_req interface probably still have a few functions that need to be updated. The docs and examples do not refer the current functionality anymore. Everything will be fixed over time. Feedback is more than welcome. Open a ticket!
2015-02-04Use cowlib for parsing headers; remove cowboy_httpLoïc Hoguin
2014-09-23Breaking update of the cowboy_req interfaceLoïc Hoguin
Simplify the interface for most cowboy_req functions. They all return a single value except the four body reading functions. The reply functions now only return a Req value. Access functions do not return a Req anymore. Functions that used to cache results do not have a cache anymore. The interface for accessing query string and cookies has therefore been changed. There are now three query string functions: qs/1 provides access to the raw query string value; parse_qs/1 returns the query string as a list of key/values; match_qs/2 returns a map containing the values requested in the second argument, after applying constraints and default value. Similarly, there are two cookie functions: parse_cookies/1 and match_cookies/2. More match functions will be added in future commits. None of the functions return an error tuple anymore. It either works or crashes. Cowboy will attempt to provide an appropriate status code in the response of crashed handlers. As a result, the content decode function has its return value changed to a simple binary, and the body reading functions only return on success.

2013-11-26Fix tohexu/1 and tohexl/1Matthias Endler
tohexu(16) or tohexl(16) will now crash, instead of evaluating to $G or $g.
2013-11-08Optimize query string parsingLoïc Hoguin
* Parsing code was moved to cowlib: cowboy_qs:parse_qs/1 * A function was added to build query strings: cowboy_qs:qs/1 * Also added cowboy_qs:urlencode/1 and cowboy_qsurldecode/1
2013-10-23Move cookie parsing/building code to cowlibLoïc Hoguin
The code for parsing has also been rewritten to be more efficient and to be able to handle cookie values with space inside them properly. Update cowlib to 0.2.0.
2013-07-05Fix decoding of chunked body.James Fish
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.
2013-06-20Add support for the webkit deflate frame extensionAli Sabil
2013-05-31In content-types, the charset parameter is converted to lowercaseLoïc Hoguin
We know this specific parameter is case insensitive so we automatically lowercase it to make things simpler to the developer.
2013-05-16Move cowboy_http:status() to cowboy:http_status()Loïc Hoguin
2013-05-16Move cowboy_http:headers() to cowboy:http_headers()Loïc Hoguin
2013-05-16Move cowboy_http:version() to cowboy:http_version()Loïc Hoguin
2013-05-16Make the HTTP version type more practicalLoïc Hoguin
Now instead of {1, 1} we have 'HTTP/1.1', and instead of {1, 0} we have 'HTTP/1.0'. This is more efficient, easier to read in crash logs, and clearer in the code.
