* bpo-31945: Configurable blocksize in HTTP(S)Connection (#4279)Nir Soffer2017-11-061-2/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | blocksize was hardcoded to 8192, preventing efficient upload when using file-like body. Add blocksize argument to __init__, so users can configure the blocksize to fit their needs. I tested this uploading data from /dev/zero to a web server dropping the received data, to test the overhead of the HTTPConnection.send() with a file-like object. Here is an example 10g upload with the default buffer size (8192): $ time ~/src/cpython/release/python upload-httplib.py 10 https://localhost:8000/ Uploaded 10.00g in 17.53 seconds (584.00m/s) real 0m17.574s user 0m8.887s sys 0m5.971s Same with 512k blocksize: $ time ~/src/cpython/release/python upload-httplib.py 10 https://localhost:8000/ Uploaded 10.00g in 6.60 seconds (1551.15m/s) real 0m6.641s user 0m3.426s sys 0m2.162s In real world usage the difference will be smaller, depending on the local and remote storage and the network.

* | Issue #12319: Always send file request bodies using chunked encodingMartin Panter2016-08-271-16/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous attempt to determine the file’s Content-Length gave a false positive for pipes on Windows. Also, drop the special case for sending zero-length iterable bodies.
* | Issue #12319: Support for chunked encoding of HTTP request bodiesMartin Panter2016-08-241-28/+70
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the body object is a file, its size is no longer determined with fstat(), since that can report the wrong result (e.g. reading from a pipe). Instead, determine the size using seek(), or fall back to chunked encoding for unseekable files. Also, change the logic for detecting text files to check for TextIOBase inheritance, rather than inspecting the “mode” attribute, which may not exist (e.g. BytesIO and StringIO). The Content-Length for text files is no longer determined ahead of time, because the original logic could have been wrong depending on the codec and newline translation settings. Patch by Demian Brecht and Rolf Krahl, with a few tweaks by me.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changeset does two things: introduces a new RemoteDisconnected exception (that subclasses ConnectionResetError and BadStatusLine) so that a remote server disconnection can be detected by client code (and provides a better error message for debugging purposes), and ensures that the client socket is closed if a ConnectionError happens, so that the automatic re-connection code can work if the application handles the error and continues on. Tests are added that confirm that a connection is re-used or not re-used as appropriate to the various combinations of protocol version and headers. Patch by Martin Panter, reviewed by Demian Brecht. (Tweaked only slightly by me.)
