=head1 NAME HTTP::Parser - parse HTTP/1.1 request into HTTP::Request object =head1 SYNOPSIS my $parser = HTTP::Parser->new(); ... my $status = $parser->add($text); if(0 == $status) { print "request: ".$parser->request()->as_string(); # HTTP::Request } elsif(-2 == $status) { print "need a line of data\n"; } elsif(-1 == $status) { print "need more data\n"; } else { # $status > 0 print "need $status byte(s)\n"; } =head1 DESCRIPTION This is an HTTP request parser. It takes chunks of text as received and returns a 'hint' as to what is required, or returns the HTTP::Request when a complete request has been read. HTTP/1.1 chunking is supported. It dies if it finds an error. =cut use 5.006_001; use strict; package HTTP::Parser; our $VERSION = '0.01'; use HTTP::Request; use URI; =head2 new Create a new HTTP::Parser object. =cut sub new { my $class = shift; my $self = bless { state => 'header', data => '' }, ref $class || $class; return $self; } =head2 add ( string ) Parse request. Returns: =over 8 =item 0 if finished (call request() to get an HTTP::Request object) =item -1 if not finished but not sure how many bytes remain =item -2 if waiting for a line (like 0 with a hint) =item count if waiting for that many bytes =back Dies on error. This method of parsing makes it easier to parse a request from an event-based system, on the other hand, it's quite alright to pass in the whole request. Ideally, the first chunk passed in is the header (up to the double newline), then whatever byte counts are requested. When a request object is returned, the X-HTTP-Version header has the HTTP version, the uri() method will always return a URI object, not a string. Note that a nonzero return is just a hint, and any amount of data can be passed in to a subsequent add() call. =cut sub add { my ($self,$s) = @_; $s = '' if not defined $s; my $state = $self->{state}; $self->{data} .= $s; # still waiting for the header if($state eq 'header') { # double line break indicates end of header; parse it return $self->_parse_header(length $1) if $self->{data} =~ /^(.*?)\x0d?\x0a\x0d?\x0a/s; return -2; # still waiting for unknown amount of header lines # waiting for main body of request } elsif($state eq 'body') { return $self->_parse_body(); # chunked data } elsif($state eq 'chunked') { return $self->_parse_chunk(); # trailers } elsif($state eq 'trailer') { # double line break indicates end of trailer; parse it return $self->_parse_header(length $1,1) if $self->{data} =~ /^(.*?)\x0d?\x0a\x0d?\x0a/s; return -1; # still waiting for unknown amount of trailer data } die "unknown state '$state'"; } =head2 data Returns current data not parsed. Mainly useful after a request has been parsed. The data is not removed from the object's buffer, and will be seen before the data next passed to add(). =cut sub data { shift->{data} } =head2 extra Returns the count of extra bytes (length of data()) after a request. =cut sub extra { length shift->{data} } =head2 request Returns the current request. Only useful after a request has been parsed. =cut sub request { shift->{req} } # _parse_header ( position of double newline in data [, trailer flag] ) # # helper for parse that parses an HTTP header # prerequisite: we have data up to a double newline in $self->{data} # if the trailer flag is set, we're parsing trailers # sub _parse_header { my ($self,$eoh,$trailer) = @_; my $header = substr($self->{data},0,$eoh,''); $self->{data} =~ s/^\x0d?\x0a\x0d?\x0a//; # parse into lines my @header = split /\x0d?\x0a/,$header; my $request = shift @header unless $trailer; # join folded lines my @out; for(@header) { if(s/^[ \t]+//) { die 'LWS on first header line' unless @out; $out[-1] .= $_; } else { push @out, $_; } } # parse request-line my $req; unless($trailer) { my ($method,$uri,$http) = split / /,$request; die "bad request line '$request'" unless $http and $http =~ /^HTTP\/(\d+)\.(\d+)$/; my ($major,$minor) = ($1,$2); $req = $self->{req} = HTTP::Request->new($method,URI->new($uri)); $req->header(X_HTTP_Version => "$major.$minor"); # pseudo-header } else { $req = $self->{req}; } # import headers my $token = qr/[^][\x00-\x1f\x7f()<>@,;:\\"\/?={} \t]+/; for $header(@header) { die "bad header name in '$header'" unless $header =~ s/^($token):[\t ]*//; $req->push_header($1 => $header); } # if we're parsing trailers we don't need to look at content return 0 if $trailer; # see what sort of content we have, if any if(my $length = $req->header('content_length')) { die "bad content-length '$length'" unless $length =~ /^(\d+)$/; $self->{state} = 'body'; return $self->_parse_body(); } # check for transfer-encoding, and handle chunking if(my @te = $req->header('transfer_encoding')) { if(grep { lc $_ eq 'chunked' } @te) { $self->{state} = 'chunked'; return $self->_parse_chunk(); } } # else we have no content so return success return 0; } # _parse_body # # helper for parse, returns request object with content if done, else # count of bytes remaining # sub _parse_body { my $self = shift; my $length = $self->{req}->header('content_length'); if(length $self->{data} >= $length) { $self->{req}->content(substr($self->{data},0,$length,'')); return 0; } return $length-length $self->{data}; } # _parse_chunk # # helper for parse, parse chunked transfer-encoded message; returns like parse # sub _parse_chunk { my $self = shift; CHUNK: # need beginning of chunk with size if(not $self->{chunk}) { if($self->{data} =~ s/^([0-9a-fA-F]+)[^\x0a]*?\x0d?\x0a//) { # a zero-size chunk marks the end unless($self->{chunk} = hex $1) { $self->{state} = 'trailer'; # double line break indicates end of trailer; parse it $self->{data} = "\x0d\x0a".$self->{data}; # count previous line break return $self->_parse_header(length $1,1) if $self->{data} =~ /^(.*?)\x0d?\x0a\x0d?\x0a/s; return -1; # still waiting for unknown amount of trailer data } } else { die "expected chunked enoding, got '".substr($self->{data},0,40)."...'" if $self->{data} =~ /\x0d?\x0a/; return -2; # waiting for a line with chunk information } } # do we have a current chunk size? if($self->{chunk}) { # do we have enough data to fill it, plus a CR LF? if(length $self->{data} > $self->{chunk} and substr($self->{data},$self->{chunk},2) =~ /^(\x0d?\x0a)/) { my $crlf = $1; $self->{req}->add_content(substr($self->{data},0,delete $self->{chunk})); substr($self->{data},0,length $crlf) = ''; # got chunks? goto CHUNK; } return $self->{chunk}-length($self->{data})+2; # extra CR LF } } =head1 AUTHOR David Robins Edbrobins@davidrobins.netE =head1 SEE ALSO L. =cut 1;
