Fast Interactive Framework for Web Scripting Using R
Home Page: http://RForge.net/FastRWeb
Suppose I need third party packages in my scripts, how can I install the in FastRWeb?
Hello Simon/,
I am using your framework to develop an analytics platform using R. I created some web apis using concepts laid down by FastRWeb, however, in order to do authentication I need to parse the request headers and verify the tokens. I noticed that in code headers are being parsed, but they are being set to expose only certain parameters like
uri=url, method='GET', c.type='', c.length=-1, body=NULL, client.ip='0.0.0.0', query.string='', raw.cookies=''" etc.
headers are being parsed from line 67 to 78.
Would it be possible to include all the headers so that the framework can be used for authentication?
Or else I need some help in understanding how I can read custom headers from the request.
Kind regards,
Satya
When I post with a number of parameters in the body, info.R shows no parameters. It shows that the contente type is:
$ c.type : chr "application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8"
meanwhile, the code doesn't handle media type parameters; it just does an exact string match:
if (request$c.type == 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' && is.raw(request$body)) {
It would be great to have a systemd-startup-definition file...
Does anyone already created one for his/her use and can share it?
(I'm currently upgrading a FastRWeb installation - and I don't want to emulate a rc.local-file on the new systemd-based Debian ;-) )
I was wondering, if there is a way to also set the HTTP status code for a WebResult (like headers). I couldn't find anything in the docs, but it would be nice, if this was possible, since a 200 is not always suitable.
Hello Simon,
I noticed that my response headers are not working properly anymore for Statuses. When I was running with CGI enabled, then I had an option to set Status. I am trying out the apis in Advanced rest client. A small screensot of script not found error is attached.
Response Raw putput from Fiddler.
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-type: text/html
Status: 404 Script not found
Content-length: 26
Script /api111.R not found
Kind regards,
Satya.
As mistakenly requested in the repository Rserve (s-u/Rserve#177), I would like to correctly tip in my feature request in this repository.
It would be nice to have more headers or header information in the request object, like Authorization: Bearer
. Currently there a just a few available. It should be possible to add more headers, if given in the incoming request.
Hello,
When I POST a bunch of data to a simple FastRWeb script that echoes it back, it sometimes comes back slightly altered, depending on how I did the POST.
Example output:
$ diff cmdline.txt rcurl.txt
178c178
< ensembl/release-74/fasta/erinaceus_europaeus/dna/Erinaceus_europaeus.HEDGEHOG.74.dna.toplevel.fa.rz

> ensembl/release-74/fasta/pelodiscus_sinensis/dna/Pelodiscus_sinensis.PelSin_11.0.74.dna_rm.toplevel.fa.rz
See how Erinaceus becomes EErinaceus and 1.0 becomes 11.0.
Here's the simple FastRWeb script (save this as test.R in your web.R directory):
run <- function(...) {
params <- list(...)
out(params$RDataPath)
}
I compared the results with an equivalent python CGI script:
import cgi
print "Content-Type: text/html"
print
form = cgi.FieldStorage()
print(form["RDataPath"].value)
and the problem does not occur with python so it seems to be happening in FastRWeb.
How to reproduce:
Download these files:
https://s3.amazonaws.com/fastrweb-problem/paths.txt
https://s3.amazonaws.com/fastrweb-problem/paths2.txt
They are identical except paths2.txt has "RDataPath=" at the beginning so it's suitable for POSTing from the curl command line.
1: POSTing from the command line:
curl -X POST --data @paths2.txt http://localhost/cgi-bin/R/test.R > cmdline.txt
2: POSTing from RCurl:
library(RCurl)
pathStr <- readLines("paths.txt")
res <- postForm("http://localhost/cgi-bin/test.cgi", RDataPath=pathStr)
cat(res, file="rcurl.txt")
3: evaluate results:
edit both cmdline.txt and rcurl.txt, replacing all spaces with newlines.
Then diff them:
diff cmdline.txt rcurl.txt
You should see something like the diff output at the beginning of this email.
It seems to corrupt the data in slightly different ways each time.
I hope you can fix this. It isn't clear to me how to work around it because I can't predict where the corruption will occur. Unfortunately using command-line curl is not a good workaround since I need to POST from a Bioconductor package which may be running on systems (e.g. windows) where command-line curl is not available. I'm not an RCurl expert but maybe there's a way to make my RCurl post look more like the command-line curl post and thereby not confuse FastRWeb so much?
Thanks!
Dan
