# Sputnik
This library extends the types from the [http](https://crates.io/crates/http) crate:
* extends `http::request::Parts` with query parameter deserialization & cookie parsing
* extends `http::response::Builder` with methods to set cookies and content-types
If you use [Hyper](https://hyper.rs/) and want to deserialize request bodies
with [Serde](https://serde.rs/) you can enable the following feature flags:
- `hyper_body` provides a trait to extend `hyper::Body` with an
`into_form` method for parsing data submitted from HTML forms.
- `hyper_body_json` additionaly provides an `into_json` method
With the `security` feature Sputnik furthermore provides what's necessary to
implement [signed & expiring cookies](#signed--expiring-cookies) with the
expiry date encoded into the signed cookie value, providing a more
lightweight alternative to JWT if you don't need interoperability.
Sputnik does **not** handle routing because even complex routing can be quite
easily implemented with nested `match` blocks. If you want a more high-level
router, you can check out the [router crates](https://crates.io/keywords/router).
Sputnik encourages you to create your own error enum and implement `From`
conversions for every error type, which you want to short-circuit with the `?`
operator. This can be easily done with [thiserror](https://crates.io/crates/thiserror)
because Sputnik restricts its error types to the `'static` lifetime.
## Security Considerations
Protect your application against [CSRF](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_request_forgery)
by setting `SameSite` to `Lax` or `Strict` for your cookies and checking that the `Origin`
header matches your domain name (especially if you have unauthenticated POST endpoints).
## Hyper Example
```rust
use hyper::http::request::Parts;
use hyper::http::response::Builder;
use hyper::service::{make_service_fn, service_fn};
use hyper::{Body, Method, Server, StatusCode};
use serde::Deserialize;
use sputnik::hyper_body::{FormError, SputnikBody};
use sputnik::{html_escape, mime, request::SputnikParts, response::SputnikBuilder};
use std::convert::Infallible;
type Response = hyper::Response<Body>;
#[derive(thiserror::Error, Debug)]
enum Error {
#[error("page not found")]
NotFound(String),
#[error("{0}")]
FormError(#[from] FormError),
}
fn render_error(err: Error) -> (StatusCode, String) {
match err {
Error::NotFound(msg) => (StatusCode::NOT_FOUND, msg),
Error::FormError(err) => (StatusCode::BAD_REQUEST, err.to_string()),
}
}
async fn route(req: &mut Parts, body: Body) -> Result<Response, Error> {
match (&req.method, req.uri.path()) {
(&Method::GET, "/form") => Ok(get_form(req)),
(&Method::POST, "/form") => post_form(req, body).await,
_ => return Err(Error::NotFound("page not found".to_owned())),
}
}
fn get_form(_req: &mut Parts) -> Response {
Builder::new()
.content_type(mime::TEXT_HTML)
.body("<form method=post><input name=text> <button>Submit</button></form>".into())
.unwrap()
}
#[derive(Deserialize)]
struct FormData {
text: String,
}
async fn post_form(_req: &mut Parts, body: Body) -> Result<Response, Error> {
let msg: FormData = body.into_form().await?;
Ok(Builder::new()
.content_type(mime::TEXT_HTML)
.body(format!("hello <em>{}</em>", html_escape(msg.text)).into())
.unwrap())
}
async fn service(
req: hyper::Request<hyper::Body>,
) -> Result<hyper::Response<hyper::Body>, Infallible> {
let (mut parts, body) = req.into_parts();
match route(&mut parts, body).await {
Ok(mut res) => {
for (k, v) in parts.response_headers().iter() {
res.headers_mut().append(k, v.clone());
}
Ok(res)
}
Err(err) => {
let (code, message) = render_error(err);
// you can easily wrap or log errors here
Ok(hyper::Response::builder()
.status(code)
.body(message.into())
.unwrap())
}
}
}
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
let service = make_service_fn(move |_| async move {
Ok::<_, hyper::Error>(service_fn(move |req| service(req)))
});
let addr = ([127, 0, 0, 1], 8000).into();
let server = Server::bind(&addr).serve(service);
println!("Listening on http://{}", addr);
server.await;
}
```
## Signed & expiring cookies
After a successful authentication you can build a session id cookie for
example as follows:
```rust
let expiry_date = SystemTime::now() + Duration::from_secs(24 * 60 * 60);
let mut cookie = Cookie::new("userid",
key.sign(
&encode_expiring_claim(&userid, expiry_date)
));
headers.set_cookie(Cookie{
name: "userid".into(),
value: key.sign(
&encode_expiring_claim(&userid, expiry_date)
),
secure: Some(true),
expires: Some(expiry_date),
same_site: SameSite::Lax,
});
```
This session id cookie can then be retrieved and verified as follows:
```rust
let userid = req.cookies().find(|(name, _value)| *name == "userid")
.ok_or_else(|| "expected userid cookie".to_owned())
.and_then(|(_name, value)| key.verify(value))
.and_then(|value| decode_expiring_claim(value).map_err(|e| format!("failed to decode userid cookie: {}", e)));
```
Tip: If you want to store multiple claims in the cookie, you can
(de)serialize a struct with [serde_json](https://docs.serde.rs/serde_json/).
This approach can pose a lightweight alternative to JWT, if you don't care
about the standardization aspect.
