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.
This commit completely rewrites Rocket's HTTP serving. In addition to
significant internal cleanup, this commit introduces the following major
features:
* Support for custom, external listeners in the `listener` module.
The new `listener` module contains new `Bindable`, `Listener`, and
`Connection` traits which enable composable, external
implementations of connection listeners. Rocket can launch on any
`Listener`, or anything that can be used to create a listener
(`Bindable`), via a new `launch_on()` method.
* Support for Unix domain socket listeners out of the box.
The default listener backwards compatibly supports listening on Unix
domain sockets. To do so, configure an `address` of
`unix:path/to/socket` and optional set `reuse` to `true` (the
default) or `false` which controls whether Rocket will handle
creating and deleting the unix domain socket.
In addition to these new features, this commit makes the following major
improvements:
* Rocket now depends on hyper 1.
* Rocket no longer depends on hyper to handle connections. This allows
us to handle more connection failure conditions which results in an
overall more robust server with fewer dependencies.
* Logic to work around hyper's inability to reference incoming request
data in the response results in a 15% performance improvement.
* `Client`s can be marked secure with `Client::{un}tracked_secure()`,
allowing Rocket to treat local connections as running under TLS.
* The `macros` feature of `tokio` is no longer used by Rocket itself.
Dependencies can take advantage of this reduction in compile-time
cost by disabling the new default feature `tokio-macros`.
* A new `TlsConfig::validate()` method allows checking a TLS config.
* New `TlsConfig::{certs,key}_reader()`,
`MtlsConfig::ca_certs_reader()` methods return `BufReader`s, which
allow reading the configured certs and key directly.
* A new `NamedFile::open_with()` constructor allows specifying
`OpenOptions`.
These improvements resulted in the following breaking changes:
* The MSRV is now 1.74.
* `hyper` is no longer exported from `rocket::http`.
* `IoHandler::io` takes `Box<Self>` instead of `Pin<Box<Self>>`.
- Use `Box::into_pin(self)` to recover the previous type.
* `Response::upgrade()` now returns an `&mut dyn IoHandler`, not
`Pin<& mut _>`.
* `Config::{address,port,tls,mtls}` methods have been removed.
- Use methods on `Rocket::endpoint()` instead.
* `TlsConfig` was moved to `tls::TlsConfig`.
* `MutualTls` was renamed and moved to `mtls::MtlsConfig`.
* `ErrorKind::TlsBind` was removed.
* The second field of `ErrorKind::Shutdown` was removed.
* `{Local}Request::{set_}remote()` methods take/return an `Endpoint`.
* `Client::new()` was removed; it was previously deprecated.
Internally, the following major changes were made:
* A new `async_bound` attribute macro was introduced to allow setting
bounds on futures returned by `async fn`s in traits while
maintaining good docs.
* All utility functionality was moved to a new `util` module.
Resolves#2671.
Resolves#1070.
This has the following nice benefits:
* The 'Uuid' wrapper type is gone.
* 'Uuid' implements 'UriDisplay', 'FromUriParam'.
* The 'serialization' example merges in 'uuid'.
Resolves#1299.
The 'SpaceHelmet' fairing is now called 'Shield'. It features the
following changes and improvements:
* Headers which are now ignored by browsers are removed.
* 'XssFilter' is no longer an on-by-default policy.
* A new 'Permission' policy is introduced.
* 'Shield' is attached to all 'Rocket' instances by default.
* Default headers never allocate on 'Clone'.
* Policy headers are rendered once and cached at start-up.
* Improved use of typed URIs in policy types.
This has the following nice benefits:
* The 'JsonValue' wrapper type is gone.
* 'Local{Request, Response}' natively support JSON/MessagePack.
* The 'json' and 'msgpack' limits are officially recognized.
* Soon, Rocket application will not require an explicit 'serde' dep.
This marks the beginning of the end of 'rocket_contrib'.
The options set WAL, a 1s busy timeout, and enables foreign keys.
This also adds a focused 'databases::Config::figment()', used to
retrieve a focused figment for a given config.
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.
Prior to this commit, it was not possible to test Rocket crates in
production mode without setting a global secret key or bypassing secret
key checking - the testing script did the latter. The consequence is
that it became impossible to test secret key related failures because
the tests passed regardless.
This commit undoes this. As a consequence, all tests are now aware of
the difference between debug and release configurations, the latter of
which validates 'secret_key' by default. New 'Client::debug()' and
'Client::debug_with()' simplify creating an instance of 'Client' with
configuration in debug mode to avoid undesired test failures.
The summary of changes in this commit are:
* Config 'secret_key' success and failure are now tested.
* 'secret_key' validation was moved to pre-launch from 'Config:from()'.
* 'Config::from()' only extracts the config.
* Added 'Config::try_from()' for non-panicking extraction.
* 'Config' now knows the profile it was extracted from.
* The 'Config' provider sets a profile of 'Config.profile'.
* 'Rocket', 'Client', 'Fairings', implement 'Debug'.
* 'fairing::Info' implements 'Copy', 'Clone'.
* 'Fairings' keeps track of, logs attach fairings.
* 'Rocket::reconfigure()' was added to allow modifying a config.
Internally, the testing script was refactored to properly test the
codebase with the new changes. In particular, it no longer sets a rustc
'cfg' to avoid secret-key checking.
Resolves#1543.
Fixes#1564.
So. Many. Changes.
This is an insane commit: simultaneously one of the best (because of all
the wonderful improvements!) and one of the worst (because it is just
massive) in the project's history.
Routing:
* All UTF-8 characters are accepted everywhere in route paths. (#998)
* `path` is now `uri` in `route` attribute: `#[route(GET, path = "..")]`
becomes `#[route(GET, uri = "..")]`.
Forms Revamp
* All form related types now reside in a new `form` module.
* Multipart forms are supported. (resolves#106)
* Collections are supported in forms and queries. (resolves#205)
* Nested structures in forms and queries are supported. (resolves#313)
* Form fields can be ad-hoc validated with `#[field(validate = expr)]`.
* `FromFormValue` is now `FromFormField`, blanket implements `FromForm`.
* Form field values are always percent-decoded apriori.
Temporary Files
* A new `TempFile` data and form guard allows streaming data directly to a
file which can then be persisted.
* A new `temp_dir` config parameter specifies where to store `TempFile`.
* The limits `file` and `file/$ext`, where `$ext` is the file extension,
determines the data limit for a `TempFile`.
Capped
* A new `Capped` type is used to indicate when data has been truncated due to
incoming data limits. It allows checking whether data is complete or
truncated.
* `DataStream` methods return `Capped` types.
* `DataStream` API has been revamped to account for `Capped` types.
* Several `Capped<T>` types implement `FromData`, `FromForm`.
* HTTP 413 (Payload Too Large) errors are now returned when data limits are
exceeded. (resolves#972)
Hierarchical Limits
* Data limits are now hierarchical, delimited with `/`. A limit of `a/b/c`
falls back to `a/b` then `a`.
Core
* `&RawStr` no longer implements `FromParam`.
* `&str` implements `FromParam`, `FromData`, `FromForm`.
* `FromTransformedData` was removed.
* `FromData` gained a lifetime for use with request-local data.
* The default error HTML is more compact.
* `&Config` is a request guard.
* The `DataStream` interface was entirely revamped.
* `State` is only exported via `rocket::State`.
* A `request::local_cache!()` macro was added for storing values in
request-local cache without consideration for type uniqueness by using a
locally generated anonymous type.
* `Request::get_param()` is now `Request::param()`.
* `Request::get_segments()` is now `Request::segments()`, takes a range.
* `Request::get_query_value()` is now `Request::query_value()`, can parse any
`FromForm` including sequences.
* `std::io::Error` implements `Responder` like `Debug<std::io::Error>`.
* `(Status, R)` where `R: Responder` implements `Responder` by overriding the
`Status` of `R`.
* The name of a route is printed first during route matching.
* `FlashMessage` now only has one lifetime generic.
HTTP
* `RawStr` implements `serde::{Serialize, Deserialize}`.
* `RawStr` implements _many_ more methods, in particular, those related to the
`Pattern` API.
* `RawStr::from_str()` is now `RawStr::new()`.
* `RawStr::url_decode()` and `RawStr::url_decode_lossy()` only allocate as
necessary, return `Cow`.
* `Status` implements `Default` with `Status::Ok`.
* `Status` implements `PartialEq`, `Eq`, `Hash`, `PartialOrd`, `Ord`.
* Authority and origin part of `Absolute` can be modified with new
`Absolute::{with,set}_authority()`, `Absolute::{with,set}_origin()` methods.
* `Origin::segments()` was removed in favor of methods split into query and
path parts and into raw and decoded versions.
* The `Segments` iterator is smarter, returns decoded `&str` items.
* `Segments::into_path_buf()` is now `Segments::to_path_buf()`.
* A new `QuerySegments` is the analogous query segment iterator.
* Once set, `expires` on private cookies is not overwritten. (resolves#1506)
* `Origin::path()` and `Origin::query()` return `&RawStr`, not `&str`.
Codegen
* Preserve more spans in `uri!` macro.
* Preserve spans `FromForm` field types.
* All dynamic parameters in a query string must typecheck as `FromForm`.
* `FromFormValue` derive removed; `FromFormField` added.
* The `form` `FromForm` and `FromFormField` field attribute is now named
`field`. `#[form(field = ..)]` is now `#[field(name = ..)]`.
Contrib
* `Json` implements `FromForm`.
* `MsgPack` implements `FromForm`.
* The `json!` macro is exported as `rocket_contrib::json::json!`.
* Added clarifying docs to `StaticFiles`.
Examples
* `form_validation` and `form_kitchen_sink` removed in favor of `forms`.
* The `hello_world` example uses unicode in paths.
* The `json` example only allocates as necessary.
Internal
* Codegen uses new `exports` module with the following conventions:
- Locals starts with `__` and are lowercased.
- Rocket modules start with `_` and are lowercased.
- `std` types start with `_` and are titlecased.
- Rocket types are titlecased.
* A `header` module was added to `http`, contains header types.
* `SAFETY` is used as doc-string keyword for `unsafe` related comments.
* The `Uri` parser no longer recognizes Rocket route URIs.
