Happstack.Server.FileServe.BuildingBlocks

Contents

Description

Build your own file serving functions

If the functions in Happstack.Server.FileServe do not quite do you want you can roll your own by reusing pieces from this module.

You will likely want to start by copying the source for a function like, serveDirectory and then modifying it to suit your needs.

Synopsis

High-Level

Serving files from a directory

fileServe Source #

Arguments

:: (WebMonad Response m, ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) 
=> [FilePath]

index file names, in case the requested path is a directory

-> FilePath

file/directory to serve

-> m Response 

Deprecated: use serveDirectory instead.

Serve files from a directory and its subdirectories using sendFile.

Usage:

fileServe ["index.html"] "path/to/files/on/disk"

fileServe does not support directory browsing. See serveDirectory

DEPRECATED: use serveDirectory instead.

Note:

The list of index files ["index.html"] is only used to determine what file to show if the user requests a directory. You *do not* need to explicitly list all the files you want to serve.

fileServe' Source #

Arguments

:: (WebMonad Response m, ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) 
=> (String -> FilePath -> m Response)

function which takes a content-type and filepath and generates a response (typically filePathSendFile, filePathLazy, or filePathStrict)

-> (FilePath -> m String)

function which returns the mime-type for FilePath -> [FilePath] -- ^ index file names, in case the requested path is a directory

-> (FilePath -> m Response) 
-> FilePath

file/directory to serve

-> m Response 

Serve files from a directory and its subdirectories (parameterizable version)

Parameterize this function to create functions like, fileServe, fileServeLazy, and fileServeStrict

You supply:

  1. a low-level function which takes a content-type and FilePath and generates a Response
  2. a function which determines the content-type from the FilePath
  3. a list of all the default index files

NOTE: unlike fileServe, there are no index files by default. See defaultIxFiles.

fileServeLazy Source #

Arguments

:: (WebMonad Response m, ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) 
=> [FilePath]

index file names, in case the requested path is a directory

-> FilePath

file/directory to serve

-> m Response 

Serve files from a directory and its subdirectories (lazy ByteString version).

WARNING: May leak file handles. You should probably use fileServe instead.

fileServeStrict Source #

Arguments

:: (WebMonad Response m, ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) 
=> [FilePath]

index file names, in case the next argument is a directory

-> FilePath

file/directory to serve

-> m Response 

Serve files from a directory and its subdirectories (strict ByteString version).

WARNING: the entire file will be read into RAM before being served. You should probably use fileServe instead.

serveDirectory Source #

Arguments

:: (WebMonad Response m, ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) 
=> Browsing

allow directory browsing

-> [FilePath]

index file names, in case the requested path is a directory

-> FilePath

file/directory to serve

-> m Response 

Serve files and directories from a directory and its subdirectories using sendFile.

Usage:

serveDirectory EnableBrowsing ["index.html"] "path/to/files/on/disk"

If the requested path does not match a file or directory on the disk, then serveDirectory calls mzero.

If the requested path is a file then the file is served normally.

If the requested path is a directory, then the result depends on what the first two arguments to the function are.

The first argument controls whether directory browsing is enabled.

The second argument is a list of index files (such as index.html).

When a directory is requested, serveDirectory will first try to find one of the index files (in the order they are listed). If that fails, it will show a directory listing if EnableBrowsing is set, otherwise it will return forbidden "Directory index forbidden".

Here is an explicit list of all the possible outcomes when the argument is a (valid) directory:

DisableBrowsing, empty index file list

This will always return, forbidden "Directory index forbidden"

DisableBrowsing, non-empty index file list
  1. If an index file is found it will be shown.
  2. Otherwise returns, forbidden "Directory index forbidden"
EnableBrowsing, empty index file list

Always shows a directory index.

EnableBrowsing, non-empty index file list
  1. If an index file is found it will be shown
  2. Otherwise shows a directory index

serveDirectory' Source #

Arguments

:: (WebMonad Response m, ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) 
=> Browsing

allow directory browsing

-> [FilePath]

index file names, in case the requested path is a directory

-> (FilePath -> m String)

function which returns the mime-type for FilePath

-> FilePath

file/directory to serve

-> m Response 

like serveDirectory but with custom mimeTypes

Serving a single file

serveFile Source #

Arguments

:: (ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) 
=> (FilePath -> m String)

function for determining content-type of file. Typically asContentType or guessContentTypeM

-> FilePath

path to the file to serve

-> m Response 

Serve a single, specified file. The name of the file being served is specified explicity. It is not derived automatically from the Request url.

example 1:

Serve as a specific content-type:

serveFile (asContentType "image/jpeg") "/srv/data/image.jpg"

example 2:

Serve guessing the content-type from the extension:

serveFile (guessContentTypeM mimeTypes) "/srv/data/image.jpg"

If the specified path does not exist or is not a file, this function will return mzero.

WARNING: No security checks are performed.

NOTE: alias for serveFileUsing filePathSendFile

serveFileFrom Source #

Arguments

:: (ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) 
=> FilePath

directory wherein served files must be contained

-> (FilePath -> m String)

function for determining content-type of file. Typically asContentType or guessContentTypeM

-> FilePath

path to the file to serve

-> m Response 

Like serveFile, but uses combineSafe to prevent directory traversal attacks when the path to the file is supplied by the user.

serveFileUsing Source #

Arguments

:: (ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) 
=> (String -> FilePath -> m Response)

typically filePathSendFile, filePathLazy, or filePathStrict

-> (FilePath -> m String)

function for determining content-type of file. Typically asContentType or guessContentTypeM

-> FilePath

path to the file to serve

-> m Response 

Serve a single, specified file. The name of the file being served is specified explicity. It is not derived automatically from the Request url.

example 1:

Serve using sendfile() and the specified content-type

serveFileUsing filePathSendFile (asContentType "image/jpeg") "/srv/data/image.jpg"

example 2:

Serve using a lazy ByteString and the guess the content-type from the extension

serveFileUsing filePathLazy (guessContentTypeM mimeTypes) "/srv/data/image.jpg"
