179d5462c0 webish: look for when_done= in POST fields as well as queryargs. Closes #101.
We need to look in the fields because that's how we build the mkdir/upload
forms. Without this, uploading or creating directories would leave us on a
page that had just a URI, instead of something actually useful to a human.

3bc708529f foolscap: change using-foolscap.xhtml to say "public key" instead of "private key"
In the first instance, I hope that the tubid is generated from the hash of the public key and not the hash of the private key!
In the latter instances, the phrase "public key" as in "public key certificate" is more common.

9281a0aedc webish: reduce POST memory footprint by overriding http.Request
The original twisted.web.http.Request class has a requestReceived method
that parses the form body (in the request's .content filehandle) using
the stdlib cgi.parse_multipart() function. parse_multipart() consumes a
lot of memory when handling large file uploads, because it holds the
arguments entirely in RAM. Nevow's subclass of Request uses cgi.FieldStorage
instead, which is much more memory-efficient.

This patch uses a local subclass of Request and a modified copy of the
requestReceived method. It disables the cgi.parse_multipart parsing and
instead relies upon Nevow's use of FieldStorage. Our code must look for
form elements (which come from the body of the POST request) in req.fields,
rather than assuming that they will be copied into req.args (which now
only contains the query arguments that appear in the URL).

As a result, memory usage is no longer inflated by the size of the file
being uploaded in a POST upload request. Note that cgi.FieldStorage uses
temporary files (tempfile.TemporaryFile) to hold the data.

This closes #29.

89d2e1ac57 webapi.txt: some editing, and remove the localfile feature and the manifest feature
My motivation to remove these features is as per:

http://allmydata.org/pipermail/tahoe-dev/2007-August/000067.html

However, I haven't heard back from Brian yet, so I'm actually going to put them back in the next patch so that I can compare the two versions of webapi.txt side by side.

9ac5c14037 introducer: don't log.err() an initial connection failure, since that flunks tests. Use self.log() instead. Also improve test_client.py to always trigger this case, before it was finishing to quickly to always hit the problem. 2007-08-09 12:53:44 -07:00

Also remove requirement of setuptools >= v0.6c3.  I *think* that using setuptools in the modern way relieves this requirement, but I haven't tested it on dapper yet.
