pywebdav3's Introduction

PyWebDAV3

PyWebDAV is a standards compliant WebDAV server and library written in Python

PyWebDAV3 is an updated distribution for python 3 support.

Python WebDAV implementation (level 1 and 2) that features a library that enables you to integrate WebDAV server capabilities to your application

A fully working example on how to use the library is included. You can find the server in the DAVServer package. Upon installation a script called davserver is created in your $PYTHON/bin directory.

DETAILS

Consists of a server that is ready to run Serve and the DAV package that provides WebDAV server(!) functionality.

Currently supports

* WebDAV level 1
* Level 2 (LOCK, UNLOCK)
* Experimental iterator support

It plays nice with

* Mac OS X Finder
* Windows Explorer
* iCal
* cadaver
* Nautilus

This package does not provide client functionality.

INSTALLATION

Installation and setup of server can be as easy as follows:

pip install PyWebDAV3
davserver -D /tmp -n -J

After installation of this package you will have a new script in you $PYTHON/bin directory called davserver. This serves as the main entry point to the server.

If you're living on the bleeding edge then check out the sourcecode from https://github.com/andrewleech/PyWebDAV3

After having downloaded code simply install a development egg:

git clone https://github.com/andrewleech/PyWebDAV3
cd PyWebDAV3
python setup.py develop
davserver --help

Any updates, fork and pull requests against my github page

If you want to use the library then have a look at the DAVServer package that holds all code for a full blown server. Also doc/ARCHITECURE has information for you.

pywebdav3's Issues

Latest release 0.9.9 does not work with Python3

Latest release 0.9.9 does not work with Python3: the code uses old syntax, e.g. "except DAV_Error, (ec, dd):" in pywebdav/lib/WebDAVServer.py.

This was fixed 3 years ago in commit b4abb32
Please make a new release compatible with Python3.

Py2 package meta is missing dependency

Please include all test files in the release tarball

The release tarball on PyPi misses /test/litmus-0.13.tar.gz, thus making the test suite fail when running autopkgtests in Debian. Please include the missing file.

wishlist: read-only

it seems that there is currently no easy way to run pywebdav3 read-only (short of running it as a user w/o write permissions, which on linux afaict requires root privileges). please consider adding a read-only switch to the default server.

implementation-wise, i'd suggest splitting the FilesystemHandler class into a FilesystemReadHandler and a FilesystemRWHandler (apart from the last two methods, the code already looks like it's split accordingly); this would ease auditing compared to a flag set to the FilesystemHandler.

use nginx proxy_pass，when get file will cause an error

Preserve old history

When the project was first imported, the import was based on a pypy tar ball. The original history is still available at https://code.google.com/archive/p/pywebdav/source/default/source, albeit in hg, and would provide valuable insight into the history of the project ("Why was that variable introduced? Did it serve a purpose back than that is now lost, or did I just miss something?).

IMO, now (as the project is young and not many forks are out there) would be still a good time to rebase the project once onto the commit the tar ball was created (I've imported it to https://github.com/chrysn-pull-requests/PyWebDAV3/tree/old-history-used from the downloads google code provides; they also have an "import to GitHub" button). There are some commits later in the original project (dropping pkg_resources) that could still be mergable as well (at https://github.com/chrysn-pull-requests/PyWebDAV3/tree/old-history-latest).

TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str'

Looks like the culprit is line 245 in pywebdav/lib/propfind.py. The data contained in self._dataclass.baseurl is of type str, but the rest of the function expects bytes.

I've made a fix and submitted it as a pull request.

It also adds an empty baseurl configuration directive to the example config.ini, as I found that davserver would refuse to run unless that directive was present.

PS. I'm glad to see this fork exists, I was halfway through figuring out how to convert the old PyWebDAV codebase over to Python 3 when I found this!

Support for Python 3.11

It would be nice to have support for Python 3.11 ASAP. AFAIS this Python version will be the standard version of the next upcoming Debian release and of course it would be desirable if PyWebDAV3 would continue to be part of it.

Currently some tests are failing in Debian unstable:
https://salsa.debian.org/tryton-team/pywebdav/-/jobs/3818462/raw

Thanks for your work!

new handler

Hi.

The code is structured to allow different storage handlers.
There in "only" the file system handler, now. If I'd like to implement an other handler and make the server to use it, do I have only to change the line 76 of server.py? I checked the code and it is the only place where the handler is created.

Thanks in advance

Putting binary data could cause UnicodeDecodeError

PyWebDAV3/pywebdav/server/fshandler.py

Line 273 in 4ad90df

fp.write(data.decode())

Data should be written without decoding like fp.write(data); Of course, the file should be opened with b option like fp=open(path, "bw+") beforehand.

Btw, catching Exception could give better debugging capability.

        except Exception as e:
            log.info('put: Could not create %s, %r', uri, e)
            raise DAV_Error(424)

Add CORS header

Hi!

Would it be possible to add an option to add CORS headers, to allow connecting from PWAs?
Thanks!

range header does not work per spec

I needed a test WebDAV server, so I decided to attempt to use the package, but it appears that this software does not implement the range header properly. The RFC https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#section-14.35 states that the ranges is inclusive:

The last-byte-pos value gives the
   byte-offset of the last byte in the range; that is, the byte
   positions specified are inclusive. Byte offsets start at zero.

In the request, this does not appear to be the case. This is a log from a request:

>>> GET /somefile HTTP/1.1
>>> Host: 127.0.0.1:5555
>>> Accept: */*
>>> User-Agent: test libfetch/2.0
>>> Range: bytes=2-21
>>> Connection: close
>>> 
<<< HTTP/1.0 206 Partial Content
<<< Server: DAV/0.9.14 Python/3.7.7

<<< Connection: Keep-Alive

<<< Content-Type: application/octet-stream
content length: [19]
<<< 
offset 0, length -1, size -1, clength 19

The request requests 20 bytes, (21 - 2 + 1), but as you can see, the reply only includes 19 bytes.

It also looks like it does not honor range, as if I manually do the request:

 $ telnet 0 5555

A lot more data is included than the specified range:

freebsd@generic:~/lf.test $ echo -n 'is is a test to give some bogus data at first' | wc
       0      11      45

The data was a simple file that contained the above string, and zero padded to 1MB.

How to use it?

I was so stupid that I wanted to use it but didn't know how to use it. How to operate after installation?

How to set up login verification? Where can I add my user name and password?
How to open the test?
