FastCGI parameters (get and post

JD

11/4/2004 8:59:00 PM

Hi,

How do I retrieve form parameters with FCGI in a way that works for both
GET and POST?

I'm using FCGI.each{|request| ...} and trying to avoid the need to use
the CGI object.

GET parameters you have to parse from ENV['QUERY_STRING'].
POST parameters you parse from standard input. It gets more complicated
for multipart forms though.

CGI object provides you with exactly this functionality. I wonder does
it make sense to implement CGI class as a native extension?

Cheers,
Kent.

I see. So I guess, I'd have to do a $stdin = req.in and manually parse
in order to handle POST requests using FCGI (if I want to avoid using
CGI object).

You might be able to hack something from bits of Narf. The parsing
methods are in a module Web::Parser:

http://www.narf-lib.org/doc/classes/Web/P...

Of course, if you like the Narf API you could just use that.

Nora supports CGI/mod_ruby/FastCGI.

http://raa.ruby-lang.org/pro...

interface is automatic detect.
some interface works not need chagne source code.

example:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'web'
api = Web::Interface::AUTO.new
api.each {|request|
response = Web::Response.new
api.response request, response
}

We should figure out a way to work together.

funny how things are the same in every place.. Did ruby web devs ever
heard of python's WSGI ? It is an interface defined for web frameworks
to access web engines (such as mod_*, cgi, fcgi and random
webservers/containers).
A formal spec is here:
http://www.python.org/peps/pep...
I think having such a thing for ruby would be reqly useful..

The actual interface layer between different engines is a small amount
of code:

http://www.narf-lib.org/doc/classes/We...

On top of that, there's alot of functionality you can write. Sharing
that more difficult b/c it is api, aka judgement call. Integrating
Narf and Nora and all the other cgi replacements, then we'd have a php
replacement.

I've integrated code from various other projects into Narf. If the
developers from those projects like the direction of Narf, then I'd
love to give them commit access.

I think that a rich, low-level web api would be a good thing.
Integrating WebUnit, Nora, Narf, Amrita all together I think would be
quite useful.
