This is largely an internal change. Prior to this commit, the 'Manifest'
type, now replaced with the 'Cargo' type, robbed responsibility from the
core 'Rocket' type. This new construction restores the previous
responsibility and makes it clear that 'Cargo' is _only_ for freezing,
and representing the stability of, Rocket's internal state.
Previously, 'NamedFile::open()' called a synchronous I/O method. This
commit changes it to instead use tokio's 'File' for async I/O.
To allow this to change, the 'Handler' trait was fixed to enforce that
the lifetime of '&self', the reference to the handler, outlives the
incoming request. As a result, futures returned from a handler can hold
a reference to 'self'.
In summary, this commit modifies 'Responder' so that:
* ..it is no longer 'async'. To accommodate, the 'sized_body' methods
in 'Response' and 'ResponseBuilder' are no longer 'async' and accept
an optional size directly. If none is supplied, Rocket will attempt
to compute the size, by seeking, before writing out the response.
The 'Body' type was also changed to differentiate between its sized
'Seek' and chunked body variants.
* ..'&Request' gains a lifetime: 'r, and the returned 'Response' is
parameterized by a new 'o: 'r. This allows responders to return
references from the request or those that live longer.
The attribute is applied everywhere it can be across the codebase and is
the newly preferred method for launching an application. This commit
also makes '#[rocket::main]` stricter by warning when it is applied to
functions other than 'main'.
observed.
This is a prerequisite for async on_attach fairings. 'Rocket' is now a
builder wrapper around the 'Manifest' type, with operations being
applied when needed by 'launch()', 'Client::new()', or 'inspect()'.
'inspect()' returns an '&Manifest', which now provides the methods that
could be called on an '&Rocket'.
Also:
* Remove 'response::ResultFuture'.
* Re-export 'tokio' and 'futures' from the crate root.
* Make 'ResponseBuilder::sized_body()' and 'async fn'.
* Remove the 'Future' implementation for 'ResponseBuilder'.
* Add 'ResponseBuilder::finalize()' for finalizing the builder.
* Implement `std::error::Error` for the new Error type.
* Document the new Error type.
* Remove `LaunchError`'s implementation of `Error::description`, which is deprecated.
In order to avoid making 'ResponseBuilder::sized_body' an asynchronous
function, the seeking is deferred until finalization. 'finalize()' is
replaced with '.await', and 'ResponseBuilder::ok()' is an 'async fn'.
* Update 'tokio', 'tokio-rustls', and 'hyper'.
* Remove unused dependencies on some `futures-*` crates.
* Rework 'spawn_on', which is now 'serve'.
* Simplify Ctrl-C handling.
Use I/O traits and types from 'tokio-io' as much as possible.
A few adapters only exist in futures-io-preview and use
futures-tokio-compat as a bridge for now.
Types can now implement the new 'Listener' trait, which means they can
report the address they are listening on and asynchronously accept
connections. 'Connection's are read/write streams that can additionally
report the remote address.
Listener is implemented for 'tokio_net::tcp::TcpListener' and for
the new 'rocket_http::tls::TlsListener' based on 'tokio-rustls'.
The new private function 'Rocket::listen_on()' now does the main setup
for launch and is generic over a Listener. In the future, a more refined
version of the API can be exposed so that applications can implement
their own listeners.
* body_string_wait and body_bytes_wait are removed; use `.await` instead
* `dispatch()` is now an async fn and must be .await-ed
* Add `#[rocket::async_test]` macro, similar in purpose to `tokio::test`
* Tests now use either `rocket::async_test(async { })` or
`#[rocket::async_test]` in order to `.await` the futures returned
from `dispatch()` and `body_{string,bytes}()`
* Update 'test.sh' to reflect the tests that should be passing.
Broken:
* Cloned dispatch and mut_dispatch() with a live previous response now both fail, due to a (partial) check for mutable aliasing in LocalRequest.
* Some tests are still failing and need example-specific changes.
This is required to be able to do anything useful with the body in the
outgoing response. Request fairings do not appear to need to be async
as everything on Data that returns a future moves self and on_request only
gets &Data, but the same change in this commit should work for on_request
if desired.
The former method allows constructing a 'Config' in the exact manner
Rocket does internally: reading the active environment's properties from
'Rocket.toml' and overriding values from environment variables. The
'read_from()' property does the same except it allows a custom config
file path.
This PR also improves the internal structure of the configuration code.
The existing implementation of 'LocalRequest::clone()' mistakenly copied
the internal 'Request' pointer from the existing 'LocalRequest' to the
cloned 'LocalRequest'. This resulted in an aliased '*mut Request'
pointer, a clear soundness issue. The fix in this commit is to clone the
internal 'Request', replacing the internal pointer with the newly cloned
'Request' when producing the cloned 'LocalRequest'. A fix that removes
all 'unsafe' code should be explored.
Fixes#1312.
Every code example is now fully runnable and testable. As a result, all
examples are now tested and include imports. Relevant imports are shown
by default. Code examples can be expanded to show all imports.
Fixes#432.
