This commit allow routes to be declared for methods outside of the
standard HTTP method set. Specifically, it enables declaring routes for
any method in the IANA Method Registry:
```rust
#[route(LINK, uri = "/<foo>")]
fn link() { ... }
#[route("VERSION-CONTROL", uri = "/<foo>")]
fn version_control() { ... }
```
The `Method` type has gained variants for each registered method.
Breaking changes:
- `Method::from_str()` no longer parses mixed-case method names.
- `Method` is marked as non-exhaustive.
- `Method::supports_payload()` removed in favor of
`Method::allows_request_body()`.
Resolves#232.
This commit adds support for HTTP/3 and QUIC under a disabled-by-default
feature `http3-preview`. The current implementation depends on modified
versions of h3 and s2n-quic-h3 which will need to be upstreamed and
published before a release is possible.
During the course of development various facets of Rocket's internal
connection handling and recent listener APIs were improved. The complete
list of changes included in this PR is:
* A `shutdown` module was introduced.
* `config::Shutdown` was renamed to `ShutdownConfig` and moved to
`shutdown` while being re-exported from `config`.
* `ListenerAddr` is now called `Endpoint`. Various methods which
previously referred to "addresses" now refer to "endpoints".
* `Rocket::endpoint()` was renamed to `Rocket::endpoints()` and now
returns an iterator over the endpoints Rocket is listening on.
* `Endpoint` acquired various query utility methods.
* The `{set_}remote()` methods now take/produce `Endpoint`s.
* `TlsBindable` only accepts single-phase internal interfaces.
* Bind error messages include candidate endpoint info when possible.
* The warning message when a secret key is not configured now includes
information about its effect on private cookies.
Internal changes include:
* Config module tests were moved to `config/tests.rs`.
* The cancellable I/O implementation was significantly simplified.
* The `TripWire` implementation was simplified.
* Individual shutdown stages can now be awaited on via `Stages`.
* The `Shield` implementation was simplified.
Resolves#2723.
Prior to this commit, several `RouteUri` fields were public, allowing
those values to be changed at will. These changes were at times not
reflected by the rest of the library, meaning that the values in the
route URI structure for a route became incoherent with the reflected
values. This commit makes all fields private, forcing all changes to go
through methods that can ensure coherence. All values remain accessible
via getter methods.
* Trailing slashes are now allowed in all normalized URI paths, except
for route attribute URIs: `/foo/` is considered normalized.
* Query parts of URIs may now be empty: `/foo?` and `/foo/?` are now
considered normalized.
* The `base` field of `Catcher` is now only accessible via a new
getter method: `Catcher::base()`.
* `RawStr::split()` returns a `DoubleEndedIterator`.
* Introduced a second normalization for `Origin`, "nontrailing", and
associated methods: `Origin::normalize_nontrailing()`, and
`Origin::is_normalized_nontrailing()`.
* Added `Origin::has_trailing_slash()`.
* The `Segments<Path>` iterator will now return an empty string if
there is a trailing slash in the referenced path.
* `Segments::len()` is now `Segments::num()`.
* Added `RawStr::trim()`.
Resolves#2512.
The following dependencies were updated:
* `criterion` from 0.3 to 0.4
* `deadpool-redis` from 0.10 to 0.11
* `normpath` from 0.3 to 1
* `cookie` from 0.16 to 0.17
This allows responses to be sent to the client even when data is only
partially read, significantly improving the experience for the client
from one with a "connection closed" error to one with a proper response.
The consequence is a lifetime in 'Data'.
Though other non-lifetime-introducing solutions exist, the introduction
of a lifetime to 'Data' is a longstanding desire as it prevents
smuggling 'Data' into a longer-lived context. Use of 'Data' in that
context was unspecified with various runtime consequences. The addition
of a lifetime bound by the request prevents this error statically.
In summary, the changes are:
* Clients receive responses even when data isn't fully read.
* 'Data' becomes 'Data<'r>'. 'FromData' changes accordingly.
* Route 'Outcome's are strictly tied to the request lifetime.
Tangentially, the invalid length form field validation error message has
improved to format length in byte units if it exceeds 1024.
The new benchmarks use routes from real-world project. This is much more
realistic than the previous benchmarks.
The new benchmarks use `criterion` and exist in their own Cargo project.
