2011-05-08 | Add chunked reply support. | Loïc Hoguin | |
Send the status line and headers using cowboy_http_req:chunked_reply/3, and individual chunks with cowboy_http_req:chunk/2. | |||
2011-05-05 | Switch the HTTP protocol to use binary packets instead of lists. | Loïc Hoguin | |
The server now does a single recv (or more, but only if needed) which is then sent to erlang:decode_packet/3 multiple times. Since most requests are smaller than the default MTU on many platforms, we benefit from this greatly. In the case of requests with a body, the server usually read at least part of the body on the first recv. This is bufferized properly and used when later retrieving the body. In the case of pipelined requests, we can end up reading many requests in a single recv, which are then handled properly using only the buffer containing the received data. | |||
2011-05-04 | Add cowboy_http_req:port/1. | Loïc Hoguin | |
Returns the port given in the Host header if present, otherwise the default port of 443 for HTTPS and 80 for HTTP is returned. | |||
2011-04-30 | Remove the next_request function always matching its first clause. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-04-18 | Remove the include/types.hrl file. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-04-18 | Move the dispatcher related types into cowboy_dispatcher. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-04-18 | Rename dispatch() into dispatch_rules(). | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-04-18 | Use the inet:socket() type instead of the user-defined one. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-04-12 | Fix a pattern matching bug in cowboy_http_protocol:handler_init/2. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-04-09 | Limit the number of empty lines to allow before the request-line. | Loïc Hoguin | |
Defaults to 5. Prevents someone from indefinitely sending empty lines. | |||
2011-04-07 | Don't crash on errors while receiving headers; throw an error 500 instead. | Loïc Hoguin | |
The server shouldn't crash the request process when we have an error while receiving headers. A case where this could happen is if the header line is too long. See also bfrog's report on ticket #3 on github. | |||
2011-04-05 | Don't automatically retrieve the peer information for the 'OPTIONS' method. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-04-05 | Handle properly the default Connection value for HTTP/1.0. | Loïc Hoguin | |
Fixes a bug reported by evaxsoftware on IRC. | |||
2011-03-27 | Use a more efficient variant of string:to_lower to improve performance. | Loïc Hoguin | |
After much testing and experimentation of all kinds I find lists to be both faster and using less memory than binaries for request-line and headers handling. This is more than likely due to the fact that headers are very short and thus do not benefit from the advantages of refc binaries, meaning they're copied, just like lists. The memory usage discrepancy is still a mystery for the most part, although the hoops needed to perform operations on the binaries are probably responsible for the extra memory use. I'm thus giving up on trying to use binaries for request-line and headers. Instead, this commit improves performances even more to the lists code, making lists 5% faster than binaries. Lists are easier to work with too, so I guess it's all a big win for everyone. Of course the request body is still read as a binary, we're using the binary type where it performs best. | |||
2011-03-27 | Match early in connection_to_atom for a small performance improvement. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-22 | Allow Handler:init/3 to request a protocol upgrade. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-22 | Forward transport and protocol name to Handler:init. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-22 | Explicitly ignore the return value of cowboy_http_req:reply in error_response. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-21 | Fix spec for cowboy_http_protocol:init/3. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-21 | Introduce cowboy_http_req:body/1 to read the full request body. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-21 | Make sure error_response always returns ok. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-21 | Add specs to ensure_response and change the clauses order. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-21 | Skip the request body if it hasn't been read by the handler. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-20 | Ensure a response is sent when the handler doesn't reply anything. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-20 | Move the error response code into a separate function. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-20 | Make sure we can only reply to an HTTP request inside Handler:handle. | Loïc Hoguin | |
Of course since requests are a record the response state can be explicitly overriden, but standard use prevents errors by making sure only one reply is sent. | |||
2011-03-20 | Lazy-retrieve the peer name and port to avoid wasting time each request. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-20 | Change a @todo for Handler:init possible return values. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-20 | Rename a variable in cowboy_http_protocol for clarity. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-20 | Allow code reloading inside the cowboy_http_protocol module during keep-alive. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-20 | Default the connection to keep-alive on HTTP/1.1 and close on 1.0. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-20 | Save the raw path string in the request. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-19 | Save the raw host string in the request. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-19 | Protect the calls to the handler using catch. | Loïc Hoguin | |
* Handler:init shouldn't reply anything; send an error 500. * Handler:handle may have sent something to the client; close the socket. * Handler:terminate failed to clean itself up. Close the socket. | |||
2011-03-19 | Add support for the '*' path. | Loïc Hoguin | |
Mostly used by the following request: OPTIONS * HTTP/1.1 | |||
2011-03-19 | Rewrite the dispatcher to take a list of host each having a list of paths. | Loïc Hoguin | |
* Makes more sense to parse the host only once instead of for each path. * Allows proper handling of: If the host is not a valid host on the server, the response MUST be a 400 (Bad Request) error. | |||
2011-03-19 | Ignore all extra Host values sent in the request. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-19 | Reply with error 501 on all non absolute path URIs for now. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-19 | Reply with error 400 on all bad Request-Lines received. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-19 | Ignore empty lines when expecting the Request-Line. | Loïc Hoguin | |
In the interest of robustness, servers SHOULD ignore any empty line(s) received where a Request-Line is expected. In other words, if the server is reading the protocol stream at the beginning of a message and receives a CRLF first, it should ignore the CRLF. | |||
2011-03-19 | Comparisons of host names MUST be case-insensitive. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-19 | Notify the client that we're closing the connection after the error reply. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-18 | Move the reply function to cowboy_http_req. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-18 | Introduce Handler:terminate to cleanup the handler's state. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-18 | Handler:init/2 should also return the Request in case it changed. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-18 | Introduce Handler:init/2 for initializing the handler state. | Loïc Hoguin | |
We need an init function in order to process upgrade instructions for protocols like WebSockets, but also to request an active receive mode for long-polling connections, both of which will be implemented at a later time. | |||
2011-03-17 | Remove a superfluous terminate call in error_terminate. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-17 | Run the dispatcher as early as possible to quickly dismiss 404 errors. | Loïc Hoguin | |
2011-03-17 | Initial commit. | Loïc Hoguin | |
