This commit adds wildcard path matching. If path pattern given in
backend option ends with "*", it is considered as wildcard path. "*"
must match at least one character. All paths which include wildcard
path without last "*" as prefix, and are strictly longer than wildcard
path without last "*" are matched.
This commit removes frontend-tls parameter, and adds
redirect-if-not-tls parameter parameter to --backend option. nghttpx
now responds to the request with 308 status code to redirect the
request to https URI if frontend connection is not TLS encrypted, and
redirect-if-no-tls parameter is used in --backend option. The port
number in Location header field is 443 by default (thus omitted), but
it can be configurable using --redirect-https-port option.
nghttpx supports multiple certificates using --subcert option.
Previously, SNI hostname is used to select certificate. With this
commit, signature algorithm presented by client is also taken into
consideration. nghttpx now accepts certificates which share the same
hostname (CN, SAN), but have different signature algorithm (e.g.,
ECDSA+SHA256, RSA+SHA256).
Currently, this feature requires OpenSSL >= 1.0.2. BoringSSL, and
LibreSSL do not work since they lack required APIs.
Suppose the wildcard patterns follows:
- *.nghttp2.org/foo
- *.img.nghttp2.org/bar
Previously, s.img.nghttp2.org/foo does not match anything. Now it
matches first pattern.
Compile with BoringSSL except for neverbleed and libnghttp2_asio. The
former uses ENGINE and RSA_METHOD, and they are quite different
between OpenSSL and BoringSSL. The latter uses boost::asio, which
calls OpenSSL functions deleted in BoringSSL.
-b option syntax is now <HOST>,<PORT>[;<PATTERN>[:...]]. The optional
<PATTERN>s specify the request host and path it is used for. The
<PATTERN> can contain path, host + path or host. The matching rule is
closely designed to ServeMux in Go programming language.
nghttpx server push is initiated by looking for Link header field from
backend server response. Currently we only enable server push for
HTTP/1 backend and without HTTP/2 proxy mode. The URIs which have
rel=preload are eligible to resource to be pushed.
