fix#398
A new enum status is added for the status code.
The function obsolete_reason returns default reason phrasing.
If a response has an empty reason, the serializer will
automatically insert the default reason phrase for the
status code.
fix#397
method enum class is added to represent all known request methods.
Functions are provided to convert from strings to and from the method
enumeration.
The fields container is modified to also work with the enum.
serializer interface is changed to be buffer-only, no streams,
and placed in its own header file.
Operations on serializers are moved to free functions as part
of the HTTP write family of synchronous and asynchronous algorithms.
A new class `serializer` is introduced to permit incremental
serialization of HTTP messages. Existing free functions are
re-implemented in terms of this new class.
* The BodyReader concept is refined to support a greater variety
of strategies for providing buffers representing the body to
the serialization algorithms.
* Added buffer_body, a new model of Body which allows the caller
to provide a series of owned buffers using their own serialization
loop.
* Added empty_body, a model of Body which is for serialization only,
to represent HTTP messages with no content body.
* Removed overloads of write and async_write which send only
the HTTP header.
* Removed public interfaces for performing low-level chunk encoding.
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#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#154, fix#156
This adds public interfaces for transforming buffer
sequences into their chunk-encoded equivalents. The
transformations are O(1) in space and time.
ext_list:
Iterable container of comma separated extensions, where each extension
is a token followed an optional list of semicolon delimited parameters,
with each parameter consisting of a name / value pair. The value can
be a token or quoted-string.
param_list:
Iterable container of semicolon delimited parameters, where each parameter
is a name / value pair. The value can be a token or quoted-string.
token_list
Iterable container of comma delimited tokens.
* Remove obsolete rfc2616 functions
* Refactor and consolidate case-insensitive string helpers
* 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.
* 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
