Upload with progress on Yaws webserver


I'm testing the script upload2.yaws on Yaws 2.0 but is not working. The script was develeloped for Yaws 1.57.

The log from Yaws is:

When I changed the form action to an listen port with netcat, is received the full header with the filename:

The code:

show_form(A, Feedback) -> {ehtml,
        [       {form
                ,[{enctype,"multipart/form-data"},{action,"http://192.168.26.10:8800"},{method,"post"}]
                ,       [{p,[],"Choose a file and click Upload."}
                        ,{p,[],{input,[{type,"file"},{name,"file"}],[]}}
                        ,{p,[],{input,[{type,"submit"},{value,"Upload"}],[]}}
                        ]
                }
        ,{p,[],Feedback}
        ]}.

I started the nc

$ sudo nc -l 8800

Then is showed the followed header:

I suspect that the error is on multipart function, but I'm noob in Erlang :/


    %%% Process part of a multi-part form post
    %%% returns Ehtml | {get_more, Continuation, NewState}
    multipart(A, State) when is_record(State,upload) ->
            io:fwrite("upload.yaws:multipart/3 State=~s~n", [upload_to_string(State)]),
            case yaws_api:parse_multipart_post(A) of
            {cont, Cont, Part} ->
                    io:fwrite("upload.yaws:multipart/3 cont~n"),
                    case process_part(A, Part, State) of
                    {done, Result} ->
                            io:fwrite("upload.yaws:multipart/3 done~n"),
                            result_ehtml(A, Result);
                    {cont, NewState} ->
                            io:fwrite("upload.yaws:multipart/3 get_more NewState=~s~n", [upload_to_string(NewState)]),
                            {get_more, Cont, NewState}
                    end;
            {result, Part} ->
                    io:fwrite("upload.yaws:multipart/3 result~n"),
                    case process_part(A, Part, State#upload{last=true}) of
                    {done, Result} ->
                            io:fwrite("upload.yaws:multipart/3 done~n"),
                            result_ehtml(A, Result);
                    {cont, _} ->
                            io:fwrite("upload.yaws:multipart/3 error~n"),
                            result_ehtml(A, {error, "Error During Upload"})
                    end;
            [] -> result_ehtml(A, {error,"You must select a file to upload."})
            end.

Someone have a idea?


Solution

  • The problem is in the process_part function clause that handles the header:

    %%% Process header
    process_part(A, [{head, {"file", Opts}}|Tail], State ) ->
            io:fwrite("upload.yaws:process_part/4d State=~s~n", [upload_to_string(State)]),
            case lists:keysearch(filename, 1, Opts) of
            {value, {_, UncheckedFileName}} ->
                    io:fwrite("upload.yaws:process_part/4d UncheckedFileName=~s~n", [UncheckedFileName]),
                    FileName = sanitize_filename(UncheckedFileName),
                    io:fwrite("upload.yaws:process_part/4d FileName=~s~n", [FileName]),
                    process_part(A, Tail, State#upload{filename=FileName,rlist=[]});
            false ->
                    {done, {error, "Error: filename not found in header."}}
            end;
    

    The first argument to the call to lists:keysearch/3 is the atom filename, but it should be the string "filename" instead. The revised function is:

    %%% Process header
    process_part(A, [{head, {"file", Opts}}|Tail], State ) ->
            io:fwrite("upload.yaws:process_part/4d State=~s~n", [upload_to_string(State)]),
            case lists:keysearch("filename", 1, Opts) of
            {value, {_, UncheckedFileName}} ->
                    io:fwrite("upload.yaws:process_part/4d UncheckedFileName=~s~n", [UncheckedFileName]),
                    FileName = sanitize_filename(UncheckedFileName),
                    io:fwrite("upload.yaws:process_part/4d FileName=~s~n", [FileName]),
                    process_part(A, Tail, State#upload{filename=FileName,rlist=[]});
            false ->
                    {done, {error, "Error: filename not found in header."}}
            end;
    

    With that change, upload2.yaws works fine for me with Yaws 2.0 and Erlang 18.0.
