servr - servr 0.25

  • Added a function create_server() to create a server with a custom HTTP request handler and optionally a WebSocket handler.

  • Added a function redirect() to return a redirect response.

  • Added a new argument exclude to random_port() to exclude certain port numbers when generating a random available port.

  • The baseurl argument works for all server functions now, such as httd().

- R
Published by yihui over 3 years ago

servr - servr 0.24

  • When searching for an available random port via servr::random_port() on the host 127.0.0.1, the availability of the port is also tested on 0.0.0.0 by default. This is to avoid the situation where a port has been used on 0.0.0.0 but httpuv still thinks it is available on 127.0.0.1. If you want to skip this additional testing, you may set options(servr.test.0.0.0.0 = FALSE).

- R

servr - servr 0.23

  • Updated the list of ports considered unsafe by Chrome (thanks, @RLesur, #56).

- R
Published by yihui over 4 years ago

servr - servr 0.22

  • When the global option options(servr.test.0.0.0.0 = TRUE), random_port() tests the availability of a port at the host address 0.0.0.0 when the requested host address is 127.0.0.1.

- R

servr - servr 0.21

  • Added a new argument hosturl to server_config().

servr - servr 0.18

  • Fixed the malformed Accept-Ranges header (thanks, @JasonPunyon, #47).

  • servr::random_port() looks for an available port quietly via httpuv::startServer(quiet = TRUE). This requires httpuv >= v1.5.2.

- R
Published by yihui over 5 years ago

servr - servr 0.17

  • Added an argument open to servr::browse_last() so users can decide whether to reopen the lastly browsed page.

- R
Published by yihui over 5 years ago

servr - servr 0.16

  • Refinements to HTTP range request responses. Open-ended range requests (including "Range: bytes=0-") should now be correctly handled (thanks, @raymondben, #41).

- R
Published by yihui almost 6 years ago

servr - servr 0.15

BUG FIXES

  • When the environment variable R_SERVR_PORT is set, server_config() may issue a superfluous warning "createTcpServer: address already in use" due to an unnecessary call to random_port() (thanks, @itcarroll, #39).

- R
Published by yihui over 6 years ago

servr - servr 0.14

NEW FEATURES

  • The argument host in server_config() can be configured through the global option servr.host now, e.g., options(servr.host = '0.0.0.0'). This was inspired by https://yihui.name/en/2018/09/localhost-0-0-0-0/#comment-4480809238.

- R
Published by yihui over 6 years ago

servr - servr 0.13

NEW FEATURES

  • Added a verbose argument to server_config().

  • The interval argument of server_config() can be set via the global option servr.interval now. For example, options(servr.interval = 0.5).

MAJOR CHANGES

  • Server functions such as httd() now return the config object created by server_config() instead of the server handle returned by httpuv::startServer(). The config object contains various information about the server and methods to start/stop the server.

- R

servr - servr 0.12

NEW FEATURES

  • Exported the function random_port() to return an available random TCP port.

MAJOR CHANGES

- R
Published by yihui about 7 years ago

servr - servr 0.11

NEW FEATURES

  • The default value of the port argument of server_config() can be set via the environment variable R_SERVR_PORT. If the environment variable does not exist, the global option servr.port will be used if set, e.g., options(servr.port = 4322). See ?servr::server_config for details.

servr - servr 0.10

NEW FEATURES

- R
Published by yihui over 7 years ago

- R
Published by yihui about 9 years ago

servr - CHANGES IN servr VERSION 0.4

NEW FEATURES

  • you can disable websocket listening on an HTML page using a special HTML comment <!-- DISABLE-SERVR-WEBSOCKET --> when servr is serving and watching a directory, so that this page will not communicate with R (e.g. when it is updated, R will not send signals to refresh it) (thanks @hafen, #25)
