#### output cgi script :
!	TODO : change all the '\n' by '\r\n'
!	TODO : there is at least one header field followed by '\r\n\r\n' :
			- "Content-Type"
			- "Location"
			- "Status"
->	TODO : there is no field duplicate (resolve conflicts)
->	TODO : if status field, change server status for this one
!	TODO : there is no space between filed name and ":"
!	TODO : if no Location field && no Status field -> status code = 200
!	TODO?: handle Location field, either :
			- local : start with '/' --> rerun the request with new uri
			- client : start with '<scheme>:' --> send back status code 302

#### what cgi ?
- a basic form with "name" and "something", that return a html page with that
- a script called by a file extension in URI

#### questions
- in client.cpp i fill the port, is there a default one in case it's not in the request ?
- timeout server but still works ?
- path contains double "//" from `Webserv::_get()` in response.cpp
- cgi path ? defined in config ? and root path ? :
	- `Client.cpp : fill_script_path()`
	- `cgi.cpp : is_cgi()`
	- `cgi.cpp : set_env()`
- what if the uri contains a php file, and the config said php must be handled by cgi, but the path to this php in the uri is wrong ?
	- is it ok ? `http://my_site.com/cgi-bin/php-cgi` (real path)
	- is it ok ? `http://my_site.com/php-cgi` (reconstruct path ?)
	- is it ok ? `http://my_site.com/something/php-cgi` (what about 'something' ?)
	- is it ok ? `http://my_site.com/something/cgi-bin/php-cgi` (real path with 'something' before ? )
- I don't save the STDIN and STDOUT before dup2 in child process, is it wrong ?
- the response page is received long after the cgi-script is done, why ?

#### notifications
- i changed the Client getters in two categories :
	- getters for requests infos : `get_rq_<info>`
	- getters for client sides infos : `get_cl_<info>` (such as ip of client)
- i changed the variables in request struct in Client :
	- `path` become `uri` (ex. `/path/to/file?var=val`)
	-  add `abs_path`     (ex. `/path/to/file`        )
	-  add `query`        (ex.               `var=val`)
- the header fields names, as key in map, are stored in lowercase, and getters are case-insensitives

## man

- **htons, htonl, ntohs, ntohl :** converts the unsigned short or integer argument between host byte order and network byte order
- **poll :** waits for one of a set of file descriptors to become ready to perform I/O
	- alternatives : select, epoll (epoll_create, epoll_ctl, epoll_wait), kqueue (kqueue, kevent)
- **socket :** creates an endpoint for communication and returns a file descriptor that refers to that endpoint
- **listen :** marks a socket as a passive socket, that is, as a socket that will be used to accept incoming connection requests using accept()
- **accept :** used with connection-based socket types. It extracts the first connection request on the queue of pending connections for the listening socket, creates a new connected socket, and returns a new file descriptor referring to that socket. The newly created socket is not in the listening state. The original socket is unaffected by this call
- **send :** (~write) used to transmit a message to another socket. May be used only when the socket is in a connected state (so that the intended recipient is known). The only difference between send() and write() is the presence of flags. With a zero flags argument, send() is equivalent to write()
- **recv :** (~read)  used to receive messages from a socket. May be used to receive data on both connectionless and connection-oriented sockets. The only difference between recv() and read() is the presence of flags. With a zero flags argument, recv() is generally equivalent to read()
- **bind :** associate a socket fd to a local address. When a socket is created with socket(), it exists in a name space (address family) but has no address assigned to it. It is normally necessary to assign a local address using bind() before a socket may receive connections (see accept())
- **connect :** connects a socket fd to a remote address
- **inet_addr :** converts the Internet host address cp from IPv4 numbers-and-dots notation into binary data in network byte order. Use of this function is problematic because in case of error it returns -1, wich is a valid address (255.255.255.255). Avoid its use in favor of inet_aton(), inet_pton(), or getaddrinfo()
- **setsockopt :** manipulate options for a socket fd. Options may exist at multiple protocol levels; they are always present at the uppermost socket level
- **getsockname :** returns the current address to which a socket fd is bound
- **fcntl :** manipulate an open fd, by performing some actions, like duplicate it or changing its flags

## todo

- [ ] read the RFC and do some tests with telnet and NGINX
#### parsing config
- [ ] Your program has to take a configuration file as argument, or use a default path.
- [ ] Choose the port and host of each ’server’.
- [ ] Setup the server_names or not.
- [ ] The first server for a host:port will be the default for this host:port (that means it will answer to all the requests that don’t belong to an other server).
- [ ] Setup default error pages.
- [ ] Limit client body size.
- [ ] Setup routes with one or multiple of the following rules/configuration (routes wont be using regexp):
	- [ ] Define a list of accepted HTTP methods for the route.
	- [ ] Define a HTTP redirection.
	- [ ] Define a directory or a file from where the file should be searched (for example, if url /kapouet is rooted to /tmp/www, url /kapouet/pouic/toto/pouet is /tmp/www/pouic/toto/pouet).
	- [ ] Turn on or off directory listing.
	- [ ] Set a default file to answer if the request is a directory.
	- [ ] Execute CGI based on certain file extension (for example .php).
	- [ ] Make the route able to accept uploaded files and configure where they should be saved.
#### connection basic
- [ ] You can’t execve another web server.
- [ ] Your server must never block and the client can be bounced properly if necessary.
- [ ] It must be non-blocking and use only 1 poll() (or equivalent) for all the I/O operations between the client and the server (listen included).
- [ ] poll() (or equivalent) must check read and write at the same time.
- [ ] You must never do a read or a write operation without going through poll() (or equivalent).
- [ ] Checking the value of errno is strictly forbidden after a read or a write operation.
- [ ] You don’t need to use poll() (or equivalent) before reading your configuration file. Because you have to use non-blocking file descriptors, it is possible to use read/recv or write/send functions with no poll() (or equivalent), and your server wouldn’t be blocking. But it would consume more system resources. Thus, if you try to read/recv or write/send in any file descriptor without using poll() (or equivalent), your grade will be 0.
- [ ] You can use every macro and define like FD_SET, FD_CLR, FD_ISSET, FD_ZERO (understanding what and how they do it is very useful).
- [ ] A request to your server should never hang forever.
- [ ] Your server must be compatible with the web browser of your choice.
#### parsing request HTTP (fields, ...)
- [ ] We will consider that NGINX is HTTP 1.1 compliant and may be used to compare headers and answer behaviors.
#### response HTTP (fields, ...)
- [ ] Your HTTP response status codes must be accurate.
- [ ] You server must have default error pages if none are provided.
- [ ] You can’t use fork for something else than CGI (like PHP, or Python, and so forth).
- [ ] You must be able to serve a fully static website.
#### upload files
- [ ] Clients must be able to upload files.
#### CGI
- [ ] You need at least GET, POST, and DELETE methods.
- [ ] Do you wonder what a CGI is?
- [ ] Because you won’t call the CGI directly, use the full path as PATH_INFO.
- [ ] Just remember that, for chunked request, your server needs to unchunked it and the CGI will expect EOF as end of the body.
- [ ] Same things for the output of the CGI. If no content_length is returned from the CGI, EOF will mark the end of the returned data.
- [ ] Your program should call the CGI with the file requested as first argument.
- [ ] The CGI should be run in the correct directory for relative path file access.
- [ ] Your server should work with one CGI (php-CGI, Python, and so forth).
#### write tests
- [ ] Stress tests your server. It must stay available at all cost.
- [ ] Do not test with only one program.
- [ ] Write your tests with a more convenient language such as Python or Golang, and so forth. Even in C or C++ if you want to
#### persistent connexion
- [ ] Your server must be able to listen to multiple ports (see Configuration file)
- [ ] Your server should never die.

## cgi rfc
[rfc 3875](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875)

#### summary :
- the cgi-script will send back at least one header field followed by an empty line
- this header field will be one of three :
	- "Content-Type"
	- "Location"
	- "Status"
- the cgi-script may send back more header fields
- the server must check and modify few things :
	- there is no duplicate in headers fields (if there is, resolve conflict)
	- there is no space between the field name and the ":"
	- the newlines are of form "\r\n", and not "\n" only
	- if the location field is not present, then if the status field is not present either, then the status code is 200
	- the cgi-script can return a location field, of two types :
		- local redirection : start with a "/", the server must answer as if this was the request uri
		- client redirection : start with <name-of-cheme>":", the server must send back a status 302 with this uri to the client
- to pass the body-message to the cgi-script, we write it into the temporary fd on which the script read it's standard input

[3.1: server responsabilities](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-3.1)

- The server [...] receives the request from the client
- selects a CGI script to handle the request
- converts the client request to a CGI request
- executes the script and converts the CGI response into a response for the client

[3.3: script uri](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-3.3)

- the 'Script-URI' [...] MUST have the property that if the client had accessed this URI instead, then the script would have been executed

[4: how the server prepare the cgi requests](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-4)

- the cgi receives 2 differents set of informations :
	- the request meta-variables (in UNIX, by env variables)
	- and the message-body

[4.1: request meta-variables](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-4.1)

- a header field that spans multiple lines MUST be merged onto a single line

[4.2: request message-body](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-4.2)

- unless defined otherwise, the script access request data by reading stdin

[6: how the response from the script is returned to the server](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-6)

- The response comprises 2 parts, separated by a blank line :
	- a message-header
	- and a message-body
- The message-header contains one or more header fields
- The body may be NULL

[6.2: responses types](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-6.2)

- four types of responses :
	- document response
	- local redirect response
	- client redirect response
	- client redirect response with document
- document response :
	- it must return a Content-Type header field
	- a Status-Header field is optional (200 is assumed if omited)	
	- the server must check the cgi-script output, and modifie it to comply with the protocol version
- local redirect response :
	- it must return only a Location field
	- it contains a local path URI and query string ('local-pathquery')
	- the local path URI must start with a "/"
	- the server must generate the response for this local-pathquery
- client redirect response :
	- it must return only a Location field
	- it contains an absolute URI path, to indicate the client that it should reprocess the request with this URI
	- the absolute URI always start with the name of scheme followed by ":"
	- the http server must generate a 302 'Found' message
- client redirect response with document
	- it must return a Location field with an absolute URI path
	- it must return the Status header field, with a value of 302 'Found'
	- the server must check the cgi-script output, and modifie it to comply with the protocol version

[6.3: cgi header fields](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-6.3)

- whitespace is permitted between the ":" and the field-value
- but not between the field-name and the ":"
- the CGI script can set three differents fields :
	- Content-Type
	- Location
	- Status
- Content-Type :
	- if there is a body in the response, a Content-Type field must be present
	- if there is no Content-Type, the server must not attempt to determine one
- Location :
	- the local URI path must be an absolut path, not a relative path, nor NULL
	- the local URI path must, then, start with "/"
	- the absolut URI start with "<name-of-scheme>:"
- Status :
	- a 3-digit integer code
	- 4 standards :
		- 200 'OK' indicates success, it's the default value
		- 302 'Found' with Location header and response message-body
		- 400 'Bad Request' an unknown request format, like missing CONTENT-TYPE
		- 501 'Not Implemented' the script received unsupported REQUEST-METHOD
	- construction: `Status:400 "explication of the error"\n`
- the cgi-script can return other header fields, concerning the response message
	- the server must translate cgi-headers syntax into http-header syntax
	- for exemple, newline can be encoded in different ways
- the cgi-script must not return header fields concerning client-side communication
	- the server can remove such fields
	- (not sure : https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-6.3.4)
	- the server must resolve conflicts between script-header fields and themselves

[6.3: cgi message body](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-6.4)

- the server must read it untill EOF
- the server must not modify it, except to convert charset if needed
