Arno Bakker da70fa70 2011-12-14T16:17:19 Backport evhttp_connection_get_bufferevent to Libevent 2.0 Backport by Arno Bakker; original implementation in 8d3a8500f4
Nick Mathewson 3c824bd3 2011-10-24T13:18:09 Update copyright dates to 2011.
Nick Mathewson 724bfb56 2011-10-19T22:59:47 Add note about evhttp_send_reply_end to its doxygen
Nick Mathewson 2888facc 2011-07-04T23:02:11 Revise the event/evbuffer/bufferevent doxygen for clarity and accuracy
Nick Mathewson 5dc200b7 2011-02-22T18:53:55 Merge branch '20_uri_nonconformant' into patches-2.0
Nick Mathewson f6659246 2011-02-15T11:33:40 Correct evhttp_del_accept_socket documentation on whether socket is closed Thanks to Constantine Verutin for pointing this out.
Nick Mathewson 95060b54 2011-02-13T00:41:22 Make URI parser able to tolerate nonconformant URIs. If the EVHTTP_URI_NONCONFORMANT flag is passed in (which it is when parsing URIs we get over the wire), then we relax our checks a lot. Specifically, we do nothing to check for correct characters in the path, query, and fragment parts of such a URI. We could do much more here: we could relax our hostname requirements, deal with spaces differently/better, trap some errors but not others, etc. But this should solve the worst user-agent compatibility issues for now; the other issues can wait for a later release.
Nick Mathewson 22f4af65 2010-12-09T11:43:12 Remove end-of-line whitespace
Constantine Verutin d23839fc 2010-12-07T11:43:52 Reject overlong http requests early when Expect:100-continue is set
Christopher Davis fa9305f8 2010-11-29T18:25:04 Preliminary support for Continue expectation in evhttp.
Christopher Davis aab8c38b 2010-11-05T11:17:07 Add evhttp server alias interface, correct flagging of proxy requests. evhttp needs to be mindful of all hostnames and addresses that clients use to contact the main server and vhosts to know the difference between proxy requests and non-proxy requests.

Nick Mathewson 229714d1 2010-11-04T16:04:28 Fix a mistake in http documentation found by Julien Blache
Nick Mathewson f5b391e2 2010-11-04T11:53:34 Tweak interface for allowed methods
Felix Nawothnig 75a73414 2010-11-04T11:25:35 Define enumerators for all HTTP methods, including PATCH from RFC5789 This patch defines enumerators for all HTTP methods that exist (including PATCH introduced in RFC 5789). It also makes them bit-masky (that's not a word, is it?), breaking binary- but not source-code compatibility. evhttp now stores a bitmask specifying for which methods requests to dispatch and which ones to reject with "405 Method Not Allowed". By default that's the ones we currently have (GET, POST, HEAD, PUT, DELETE), thereby keeping functional compatibility (besides the minor change that one of the other methods will now cause 405 instead of 400. But I believe that could even be considered a bug-fix). evhttp is extended by evhttp_set_allowed_methods() with which the user can change that bitmask. no regressions here and my test-app still works. Haven't yet actually tested any of the new methods. What's obviously missing here is the special logic for the methods: OPTIONS: We should be fine here - I believe our current dispatch logic should work fine. Some convenience functions would be fine though. TRACE: I'm pretty certain we should never dispatch this to the callbacks and simply implement the necessary functionality built-in. CONNECT: Pretty straight-forward to implement (and considering the framework in which we implement it very efficient too). Should probably go built-in. PATCH: Except for checking the RFC against our pre-dispatch logic (there just might be some "MUST not have Some-Header" lurking somewhere) there is nothing to be done here, this is completely up to the user. Nothing to do.
Nick Mathewson 22e0a9b2 2010-11-03T15:12:08 Add evhttp_response_code to remove one more reason to include http_struct.h
Nick Mathewson a4063c06 2010-10-26T10:38:30 Note that 2.0.9 will break the ABI, and make changes we were postponing. We had to turn a couple of 32-bit size arguments into 64-bit arguments or size_t arguments (since otherwise we would have had to do it post 2.0.x-stable, and that would be worse).
Nick Mathewson 006efa7d 2010-10-25T11:50:51 Functions to actually use evhttp_bound_socket with/as evconnlistener.
Nick Mathewson bf11e7dd 2010-10-21T15:33:13 Merge branch 'http_uri_parse'
Nick Mathewson 45f6869c 2010-10-21T14:41:12 Make evhttp_uri non-public, and give it accessor functions.
Nick Mathewson cd00079b 2010-10-21T12:19:28 Add evhttp_connection_get_base() to get the event_base from an http connection Based on a patch by Mark Ellzey from 27 July 2010. Closes ticket 3052406
Nick Mathewson 2075fbcf 2010-10-19T13:15:48 Add evhttp_parse_query_str to be used with evhttp_uri_parse. The old evhttp_parse_query() doesn't work well with struct evhttp_uri.query, since it expects to get whole URIs, rather than just the query portion.
Nick Mathewson 3a334628 2010-10-19T13:02:18 Document behavior of URI parsing more thoroughly. Also, move evhttp_uri struct into http.h, since it is part of the API.
Nick Mathewson 7d45431e 2010-10-18T14:38:48 Do not silently truncate URIs in evhttp_uri_join. Also avoid evbuffer_pullup.
Pavel Plesov 86dd720a 2010-08-08T16:46:39 Introduce absolute URI parsing helpers. See evhttp_uri_parse(), evhttp_uri_free() and evhttp_uri_join() for details.
Nick Mathewson 49f4bf7c 2010-10-18T13:58:02 Add evhttp_request_get_command so code can tell GET from POST without peeking at the struct.
Nick Mathewson a8148ced 2010-10-08T13:05:13 New evhttp_uri(encode|decode) functions to handle + and NUL characters right The old evhttp_decode_uri() function would act as tough it was doing an (illegal, undefined) decode operation on a whole URL at once, and treat + characters following a ? as different from + characters preceding one. But that's not useful: If you are decoding a URI before splitting off query parameters, you are begging to fail as soon as somebody gives you a value with an encoded & in it. The new evhttp_uridecode() function takes an argument that says whether to decode + signs. Both uridecode and uriencode also now support encoding or decoding to strings with internal 0-valued characters.
Nick Mathewson 2e63a604 2010-10-08T12:57:11 evhttp_encode_uri encodes all reserved characters, including !$'()*+,/:=@ Perviously, some characters not listed as "unreserved" by RFC 3986 (notably "!$'()*+,/:=@") were not encoded by evhttp_encode_uri. This made trouble, especially when encoding path components (where @ and / are bad news) and parameters (where + should get encoded so it doesn't later decode into a space). Spotted by Bas Verhoeven.
Nick Mathewson 3b844893 2010-10-06T12:35:38 Tweak evhttp_parse_query hack to avoid breaking abi
Nick Mathewson b1756d01 2010-10-06T11:48:52 Let evhttp_parse_query return -1 on failure We already detected certain malformed queries, but we responded by aborting the query-parsing process half-way through without telling the user. Now, if query-parsing fails, no headers are returned, and evhttp_parse_query returns -1.
Felix Nawothnig 06bd0563 2010-05-26T12:50:59 Fix the default HTTP error template The current template... <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>%s</TITLE> </HEAD><BODY> <H1>Method Not Implemented</H1> Invalid method in request<P> </BODY></HTML> is highly confusing. The given title is easily overlooked and the hard-coded content is just plain wrong in most cases (I really read this as "the server did not understand the requested HTTP method) This patch changes the template to include the error reason in the body as well as in the header, and to infer the proper reason from the status code whenever the reason argument is NULL. This patch also removes a redundant evhttp_add_header from evhttp_send_error; evhttp_send_page already adds a "Connection: close" header.
Nick Mathewson 17efc1cd 2010-03-04T01:25:51 Update all our copyright notices to say "2010"
Niels Provos 39781801 2010-02-03T16:54:18 make evhttp_send() safe against terminated connections, too
Niels Provos 93d73691 2010-02-03T14:34:56 do not fail while sending on http connections the client closed. when sending chunked requests via multiple calls to evhttp_send_reply_chunk, the client may close the connection before the server is done sending. this used to cause a crash. we introduce a new function evhttp_request_get_connection() that allows the server to determine if the request is still associated with a connection. If it's not, evhttp_request_free() needs to be called explicitly or the user can call evhttp_send_reply_end() which just frees the request, too.
Nick Mathewson da6135e3 2010-02-03T02:09:19 Reduce windows header includes in our own headers. It turns out that absolutely everything that was including windows.h was doing so needlessly; our headers don't need it, so we should just include winsock2.h (since that's where struct timeval is defined). Pre-2.0 code will use the old headers, which include windows.h for them, so we aren't breaking source compatibility with 1.4. This solves the bug where we were leaving WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN defined, in roughly the same way that buying an automobile solves the question of what to give your coachman for boxing day.
Niels Provos 5032e526 2010-01-14T15:42:07 do not use a function to assign the evdns base; instead assign it via evhttp_connection_base_new() which is a new function introduced in 2.0
Nick Mathewson c698b77d 2009-12-30T00:11:27 Allow http connections to use evdns for hostname looksups. This was as simple as using bufferevent_connect_hostname instead of calling connect() ourself, which already knows how to use an evdns_base if it gets one. Untangling the bind code might be a little trickier.
Niels Provos f1691539 2009-11-19T23:08:50 Remove most calls to event_err() in http and deal with memory errors instead svn:r1555

Nick Mathewson 4bcd5646 2009-08-16T19:21:57 Make evhttp_bound_socket visible, and provide an accessor to its fd Declare the previously private struct evhttp_bound_socket in event2/http.h as an opaque struct. Implement evhttp_bound_socket_get_fd, which returns the file descriptor of an evhttp_bound_socket. [Patch from David Reiss] svn:r1421

Niels Provos 30648529 2009-04-17T01:03:07 have evhttp_set_cb return an int; -1 on failure, 0 on success; this is better than returning a pointer svn:r1179
Niels Provos d2794e65 2009-04-11T15:26:29 document evhttp_parse_query better svn:r1157
Nick Mathewson b85b710c 2009-01-27T22:34:36 Update copyright statements to reflect the facts that: a) this is 2009 b) niels and nick have been comaintainers for a while c) saying "all rights reserved" when you then go on to explicitly disclaim some rights is sheer cargo-cultism. svn:r1065
Nick Mathewson 9993137c 2009-01-27T21:10:31 Remove all trailing whitespace in all the source files. svn:r1063
Niels Provos 5792d42f 2008-11-16T23:22:14 Allow setting of local port for evhttp connections to support millions of connections from a single system; from Richard Jones svn:r948
Niels Provos 344c2b56 2008-06-02T05:45:26 deliver partial data to request callbacks when chunked callback is set even if there is no chunking on the http level; allows cancelation of requests from within the chunked callback; from Scott Lamb. svn:r846

In fact, u_char can really just be spelled out, and u_short was usually just a bad way of saying ev_uint16_t. svn:r808
Niels Provos a57767fa 2008-05-11T16:22:35 more accessors for evhttp_request svn:r807
