This allows us to improve the performance. For now, a Cow is used
internally, so clients can set the host to a static value and no longer
need copies.
Later, we can change it to also possibly have a MemSlice.
BREAKING CHANGE: The fields of the `Host` header are no longer
available. Use the getter methods instead.
There are many changes involved with this, but let's just talk about
user-facing changes.
- Creating a `Client` and `Server` now needs a Tokio `Core` event loop
to attach to.
- `Request` and `Response` both no longer implement the
`std::io::{Read,Write}` traits, but instead represent their bodies as a
`futures::Stream` of items, where each item is a `Chunk`.
- The `Client.request` method now takes a `Request`, instead of being
used as a builder, and returns a `Future` that resolves to `Response`.
- The `Handler` trait for servers is no more, and instead the Tokio
`Service` trait is used. This allows interoperability with generic
middleware.
BREAKING CHANGE: A big sweeping set of breaking changes.
Closes#891
BREAKING CHANGE: `Headers.remove()` used to return a `bool`,
it now returns `Option<H>`. To determine if a a header exists,
switch to `Headers.has()`.
The Raw type repesents the raw bytes of a header-value.
Having a special type allows a couple of benefits:
- The exact representation has become private, allowing "uglier"
internals. Specifically, since the common case is for a header to only
have 1 line of bytes, an enum is used to skip allocating a Vec for only
1 line. Additionally, a Cow<'static, [u8]> is used, so static bytes
don't require a copy. Finally, since we can use static bytes, when
parsing, we can compare the incoming bytes against a couple of the most
common header-values, and possibly remove another copy.
- As its own type, the `Headers.set_raw` method can be generic over
`Into<Raw>`, which allows for more ergnomic method calls.
BREAKING CHANGE: `Header::parse_header` now receives `&Raw`, instead of
a `&[Vec<u8>]`. `Raw` provides several methods to ease using it, but
may require some changes to existing code.
If you get a mutable reference to a typed header it is possible to make
the two representations be out of sync. To avoid this, after parsing the
raw part it should be removed.
Fixes#821.
compare the raw representations of the headers for the lack of a better alternative
helpful when asserting HttpRequest/ HttpResponse in tests elsewhere
Header::parse_header() returns now a hyper Result instead of an option
this will enable more precise Error messages in the future, currently
most failures are reported as ::Error::Header.
BREAKING CHANGE: parse_header returns Result instead of Option, related
code did also change
The old names followed the old style of including the module name and
"Error" in each variant. The new style is to refer to an error from its
owning module, and variants are now scoped to their enum, so there's no
need to include the enum name in the variant name.
BREAKING CHANGE: The terms `Http` and `Error` have been removed from the Error
type and its variants. `HttpError` should now be accessed as `hyper::Error`,
and variants like `HttpIoError` should be accessed as `Error::Io`.
Using `time::Tm` directly in HTTP header fields requires special handling to parse and format
the header values., this stops us from using the header macros. By wrapping `time::Time` in a
`HttpDate`, we can use the `FromStr` and `Display` traits of `HttpDate` like for most other values.
BREAKING_CHANGE: All code using one of the `Date`, `Expires`, `If-Modified-Since`,
`If-Unmodified-Since`, `Last-Modified` header fields needs to wrap `time::Tm`
with `HttpDate`. Removed `FromStr` trait of `Date`, `If-Modified-Sice` and `If-Unmodified-Sice`,
implementing the trait here is inconsistent with other headers.
This commit fixes `cargo build` and `cargo test`.
Method lookup on traits seems to have changed to force
`impl TraitName` expressions to be more specific. That means that
`method` will not be found anymore on an object of type `&Trait+Send`,
unless you provide an `impl Trait+Send`.
Now `NetworkStream` and `HeaderFormat` trait implementations
are done against `* + Send`, which helps the compiler to find the
respective `downcast*` method implementations once again.
httparse is a http1 stateless push parser. This not only speeds up
parsing right now with sync io, but will also be useful for when we get
async io, since it's push based instead of pull.
BREAKING CHANGE: Several public functions and types in the `http` module
have been removed. They have been replaced with 2 methods that handle
all of the http1 parsing.
BREAKING CHANGE: added requirement that all HeaderFormat implementations
must also be fmt::Debug. This likely as easy as slapping
#[derive(Debug)] on to any custom headers.
All instances of `old_io` and `old_path` were switched to use the new
shiny `std::io`, `std::net`, and `std::path` modules. This means that
`Request` and `Response` implement `Read` and `Write` now.
Because of the changes to `TcpListener`, this also takes the opportunity
to correct the method usage of `Server`. As with other
languages/frameworks, the server is first created with a handler, and
then a host/port is passed to a `listen` method. This reverses what
`Server` used to do.
Closes#347
BREAKING CHANGE: Check the docs. Everything was touched.
Using floating point numbers is problematic because comparison is inexact.
They also take more space than integral numbers in this case.
Add `FromPrimitve`, `ToPrimitive` and `Default` traits to quality newtype.
Closes: #330
BREAKING_CHANGE: Replace f32 quality values in quality items with a
Quality(u16) newtype. Valid values are from 0 to 1000.
