@github-actions github-actions released this 10 May 03:53
- Features

* A `Middleware` is implemented bringing the capabilities to act on
`hyper::Request<Body>` before executing the main handler (a.k.a File Explorer)
and to act on the `hyper::Response<Body>` after executing the main handler.
This helps implementing future features which relies on acting on different
stages of the HTTP/S request lifecycle such as logging, authentication, caching
and so on.

* Support for Cross-Origin Resource Sharing

* Using the `--cors` flag when running the HTTP Server will now provide a
CORS configuration which allows requests from any origin

* The server configuration file supports a fully configurable CORS field now

```toml
[cors]
allow_credentials = false
allow_headers = ["content-type", "authorization", "content-length"]
allow_methods = ["GET", "PATCH", "POST", "PUT", "DELETE"]
allow_origin = "example.com"
expose_headers = ["*", "authorization"]
max_age = 600
request_headers = ["x-app-version"]
request_method = "GET"
```

- Improvements

* Codebase refactor for `server` module, introducing middleware support for
services to programmatically build a server instance from the provided `Config`

* Replace `full` feature flags on `tokio` and `hyper` with sepecific features,
to reduce crate load on compile time. This improve build times and crate size.

* Improved tests coverage by implementing tests for CLI arguments and config
file parsing

- Fixes

* Fix issue where the `root_dir` is taken _as is_ from the CLI
arguments resulting on `./` instead of the current working
directory for the `FileExplorer`

* Fix issue where loading config without `root_dir` defined panics
and uses the current working directory as default `root_dir` as is
done for CLI

* Fix issue where errors returned by any internal service are not
logged to stderr
