fix#123fix#154fix#265
This completely replaces the HTTP parser used to read and
parse incoming messages. The new version is faster than
the old one, and written in fewer lines. A summary of
changes:
* parse and async_parse renamed to read and async_read
* basic_parser is optimized for linear buffers,
use flat_streambuf for the best performance with these
functions:
- http::read
- http::read_some
- http::async_read
- http::async_read_some
* The overloads of read() and async_read() which take
just a header have been removed, since they would
throw away important parse metadata.
* The derived class callbacks for basic_parser have
been streamlined. All strings passed to callbacks
are presented in their entirety, instead of being
provided in pieces.
These changes allow use-cases that were previously
difficult or impossible, such as:
- Efficient relaying
- Late body type commitment
- Expect: 100-continue handling
fix#242
* Add public constructors
* Add handler_ptr::empty()
* Add handler_ptr::element_type
* Remove make_handler_ptr free function
* Compiler error if element_type is an array type
* handler_ptr::get() returns nullptr if no object is owned
fix#215
This change guarantees that temporary memory allocated
through the asio hooks by the Beast implementation is
deallocated before invoking the final handler when performing
composed operations.
The change is accomplished by replacing std::shared_ptr with
a thread-safe custom container handler_ptr to manage composed
operation state. The container tracks other instances which
manage the same object and resets them in a safe way before
invoking the final handler.
handler_ptr is provided as a public interface so that users of
this library can utilize the same idiom to write their own
composed operations.
fix#171
Several names and HTTP identifiers are renamed to be
more consistent, self-explanatory, and concise:
* "Fields" is a collection of HTTP header fields (rfc7230 section 3.2)
* "Header" is the Start Line plus Fields. Another way to look at it is,
the HTTP message minus the body.
* `basic_fields` replaces `basic_headers`
* `fields` replaces `headers`
* `Fields` replaces `Headers` in template parameter lists
* `header` replaces `message_headers`
* `header::fields` replaces `message_headers::fields`
The changes are cosmetic and do not affect run-time behavior.
fix#127
* Added beast::detail::ignore_unused based on boost::ignore_unused
* Added -Wextra compilation flag when building with gcc
* Fixed all unused parameter warnings with ignore_unused
* Fixed all missing includes when building each .hpp separately
in addition to passing ${CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT} to the linker, this
interface library will also add -pthread to the compile options when
supported

The example HTTP server is updated to provide the correct MIME-type.
It no longer uses the now-deprecated http::stream class, since that
implementation does not provide flow control. A new example async_write
function is provided in the asynchronous server for managing the
lifetime of a message sent asynchronously.
The logging is thread-safe, and a bug causing connections to
malfunction is fixed.
Core:
* Test buffer_cat iterator move members
HTTP:
* Fixed yield / resume in writer
* Fixed message serialization with chunked encoding
* Test yield / resume in writer
* Test all conditional branches during message serialization
* Test chunked encoding
* Increase coverage on parse_error
* Add parse_error::general
WebSocket:
* Add error::general
* Increase coverage in error
The message class now behaves like a pair with respect to the construction
of the body and headers. Additional constructors allow construction of
just the body portion from a tuple, leaving the headers default
constructed.
Previous constructors are removed as they were a notational convenience
for assembling HTTP/1 requests and responses. They are not necessary
as this library aims at library writers and not end users.
* Don't include the test code in coverage reports
* Add test code for missing coverage
Other:
* Improve the README.md
* Fix warning in sha1_context
* Tidy up the examples use of namespaces
* Various fixes to documentation and javadocs
The version field is moved into message_v1, all public interfaces
are reworked to identify HTTP/1 wire format operations (suffix "_v1")
versus general HTTP.
websocket:
* Move echo server to test/
* Fix warnings
* Fix maskgen being uncopyable
* Simplify utf8_checker special member declarations
* Fix stream move assignable when owning the next layer
* Add javadocs for stream special members
* Add stream unit tests
* Move throwing member definitions to the .ipp file
* Use get_lowest_layer in stream declaration
* Perform type checks at each call site instead of constructor
* Demote close_code to a non-class enum:
Otherwise, application specific close codes
cannot be assigned without using static_cast.
core:
* Add streambuf_readstream special members tests
* Add move assignment operator to streambuf_readstream
* Add detail/get_lowest_layer trait
* Add static_string tests
* Move static_string from websocket to core
* Fix warnings
* Port cmake scripts to linux
* Add command line options for running test suites
* Add examples to CMakeLists
* Return std::uint64_t from writer::content_length
* basic_parser::write takes asio::const_buffer instead of pointer and size
* Turn message test back on now that it passes
* Rename to http::headers, use std::allocator, remove http_headers
* http::message::method is now a string
* Refactor to_string for ConstBufferSequence
* Remove chunk_encode from the public interface
* Initialize members for default constructed iterators
* Disallow default construction for dependent buffer sequences
Refactor http::message serialization:
* Serialization no longer creates a copy of the
headers and modifies them
* New function prepare(), sets Connection, Transfer-Encoding,
Content-Length based on the body attributes and caller options.
Callers can use prepare() to have the fields set automatically,
or they can set the fields manually.
* Use write for operator<<
* Tests for serialization
The basic_parser is rewritten to be header-only. The nodejs parser is
removed from the include subtree and placed into the test directory.
Other changes:
* Parser specific error codes in parse_error.hpp
* Add parser-bench performance testing, nodejs vs beast
* New random message generator for fuzz tests
* Test for header-only parser using random message generator
* Augmented some existing message tests to check more cases
Beast.WebSocket provides developers with a robust WebSocket
implementation built on Boost.Asio with a consistent asynchronous
model using a modern C++ approach.
New classes are introduced to represent HTTP messages and their
associated bodies. The parser interface is reworked to use CRTP,
error codes, and trait checks.
New classes:
* basic_headers
Models field/value pairs in a HTTP message.
* message
Models a HTTP message, body behavior defined by template argument.
Parsed message carries metadata generated during parsing.
* parser
Produces parsed messages.
* empty_body, string_body, basic_streambuf_body
Classes used to represent content bodies in various ways.
New functions:
* read, async_read, write, async_write
Read and write HTTP messages on a socket.
New concepts:
* Body: Represents the HTTP Content-Body.
* Field: A HTTP header field.
* FieldSequence: A forward sequence of fields.
* Reader: Parses a Body from a stream of bytes.
* Writer: Serializes a Body to buffers.
basic_parser changes:
* add write methods which throw exceptions instead
* error_code passed via parameter instead of return value
* fold private member calls into existing callbacks
* basic_parser uses CRTP instead of virtual members
* add documentation on Derived requirements for CRTP
impl/http-parser changes:
* joyent renamed to nodejs to reflect upstream changes
