Jetforce Changelog

Unreleased

v0.2.2 (2012-03-31)

• Fix a regression in path matching for the static directory application.

v0.2.1 (2012-03-31)

• A hostname can now be specified in the route pattern, to facilitate running multiple vhosts on a single jetforce server.
• Route patterns now use re.fullmatch() and will no longer trigger on partial matches.
• Jetforce will no longer raise an exception when attempting to log dropped connections or other malformed requests.
• Added the following CGI variables for client certificates: TLS_CLIENT_NOT_BEFORE, TLS_CLIENT_NOT_AFTER, TLS_CLIENT_SERIAL_NUMBER

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.
