0.20.0

Added

  • New Auth module to work with Authorization header (#238)

  • New basic_auth middleware to protect handlers with a Basic authentication method (#238)

  • New Response.of_file API for conveniently creating a response of a file (#244)

  • Add a package opium-graphql to easily create GraphQL server with Opium (#235)

  • Add a function App.run_multicore that uses pre-forking and spawns multiple processes that will handle incoming requests (#239)

Fixed

  • Fix reading cookie values when multiple cookies are present in Cookie header (#246)

0.19.0

This release is a complete rewrite of the Opium's internal that switches from Cohttp to Httpaf. As demonstrated in several benchmarks, Httpaf's latency is much lower than Cohttp's in stress tests, so it is expected that Opium will perform better in these high pressure situations with this change.

The underlying HTTP server implementation is now contained in the rock package, that provides a Service and Filter implementation, inspired by Finagle's. The architecture is similar to Ruby's Rack library (hence the name), so one can compose complex web applications by combining Rock applications.

The rock package offers a very slim API, with very few dependencies, so it should be an attractive option for other Web framework to build on, which would allow the re-usability of middlewares and handlers, independently of the framework used (e.g. one could use Sihl middlewares with Opium, and vice versa).

Apart from the architectural changes, this release comes with a lot of additionnal utilities and middlewares which should make Opium a better candidate for complex web applications, without having to re-write a lot of common Web server functionnalities.

The Request and Response modules now provide:

  • JSON encoders/decoders with Yojson

  • HTML encoders/decoders with Tyxml

  • XML encoders/decoders with Tyxml

  • SVG encoders/decoders with Tyxml

  • multipart/form encoders/decoders with multipart_form_data

  • urlencoded encoders/decoders with Uri

And the following middlewares are now built-in:

  • debugger to display an HTML page with the errors in case of failures

  • logger to log requests and responses, with a timer

  • allow_cors to add CORS headers

  • static to serve static content given a custom read function (e.g. read from S3)

  • static_unix to to serve static content from the local filesystem

  • content_length to add the Content-Length header to responses

  • method_override to replace the HTTP method with the one found in the _method field of application/x-www-form-urlencoded encoded POST requests.

  • etag to add ETag header to the responses and send an HTTP code 304 when the computed ETag matches the one specified in the request.

  • method_required to filter the requests by method and respond with an HTTP code 405 if the method is not allowed.

  • head to add supports for HEAD request for handlers that receive GET requests.

Lastly, this release also adds a package opium-testing that can be used to test Opium applications with Alcotest. It provides Testable modules for every Opium types, and implements helper functions to easily get an Opium.Response from an Opium.Request.
