Jetforce Changelog

Unreleased

  • Allow virtual hosting by specifying an alternate hostname in the application route pattern.
  • Jetforce will no longer raise an exception when attempting to log dropped connections or other malformed requests.

v0.2.0 (2012-01-21)

Features

  • Added support for python 3.8.
  • Added a new server diagnostics tool, jetforce-diagnostics.
  • Added ability to binding to IPv6 addresses (if supported by your OS):
    • For IPv4 : --host "0.0.0.0"
    • For IPv6 : --host "::"
    • For IPv4 + IPv6 : --host ""
  • Various improvements have been made to the project documentation.

Bugfixes

  • A URL missing a scheme will now be interpreted as "gemini://".
  • A request to the root URL without a trailing slash will now return a 31 PERMANENT REDIRECT.
  • Requests containing an invalid or unparsable URL format will now return a status of 59 BAD REQUEST instead of 50 PERMANENT FAILURE.
  • Files starting with ~ will now be included in directory listings.
  • Requests containing an incorrect scheme, hostname, or port will now return a 53 PROXY REFUSED instead of a 50 PERMANENT FAILURE.
  • The port number in the URL (if provided) is now validated against the server's port number.
  • OS errors when attempting to read a file will return a 51 NOT FOUND status instead of a 42 CGI Error. This is a precaution to prevent leaking sensitive information about the server's filesystem.
  • For security, unhandled exceptions will now display a generic error message instead of the plain exception string.

v0.1.0 (2019-09-22)

  • The server will now return a redirect if a directory is requested but the URL does not end in a trailing slash. This is intended to reduce duplicate selectors and make it easier for clients to resolve relative links.
  • Added a -V / --version argument to display the version and exit.
  • The server now returns an error code of 50 PERMENANT FAILURE by default if the URL does not match the server's scheme or hostname.
  • Timestamps in log messages are now displayed in the server's local timezone. As before, the UTC offset is included as "+HHMM" to avoid ambiguity.

v0.0.7 (2019-08-30)

  • Added support for a primitive version of CGI scripting.
  • Added support for TLS client certificate verification.
  • The directory index file has been changed from ".gemini" to "index.gmi".
  • Files with the ".gemini" extension are now recognized as text/gemini.
  • Several minor improvements to the internal codebase and API.

v0.0.6 (2019-08-22)

  • Significant refactoring of the base application interface.
  • Added built-in support for URL routing based on the request path.
  • Added support for accepting input using query strings.
  • Files with the ".gmi" extension are now recognized as text/gemini.
  • Added a new examples/ directory with the following applications
    • A bare bones echo server
    • A guestbook application
    • An HTTP/HTTPS proxy server

v0.0.5 (2019-08-12)

Updates to conform to the v0.9.1 Gemini specification

  • The request line is now expected to be a full URL instead of a PATH.
  • Response status codes have been updated to match the new specification.
  • The server now requires a "hostname" be specified via a command line argument.
  • Request URLs that contain other protocols / hosts are disallowed.
  • A simple gemini client, jetforce-client, is now included.
