Detailed Description

The central request dispatcher (Facade).

This class acts as the main "brain" for handling requests. It uses the ServerConfig to find the correct route, selects the appropriate handler (e.g., StaticFile, CGI), and populates an Response. It also coordinates error page generation.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Router()

http::Router::Router	(	config::ServerConfig const &	cfg,
		MimeTypes const &	mime )

Constructs the Router.

Parameters

cfg	A constant reference to the global server configuration.
mime	A constant reference to the loaded MIME types.

Member Function Documentation

dispatch()

void http::Router::dispatch	(	int	port,
		const Request &	request,
		Response &	response ) const

Dispatches a fully parsed request to the correct handler.

This is the main entry point for the Reactor. It finds the route, executes the correct handler, and formats any errors that occur.

Parameters

port	The port the connection was received on.
request	The fully populated client request.
response	The Response object to be populated by the handler.

executeHandler()

void http::Router::executeHandler ( Request const & request, Response & response ) const

private

Internal: Selects and executes the correct handler.

handleError() [1/2]

void http::Router::handleError	(	Request const &	request,
		Response &	response ) const

handleError() [2/2]

void http::Router::handleError ( Request const & request, Response & response, MimeTypes const & mimeTypes )

staticprivate

Populates an error response.

isMethodAllowed()

bool http::Router::isMethodAllowed ( const Request & request )

staticprivate

matchServerAndLocation()

void http::Router::matchServerAndLocation	(	int	port,
		Request &	request ) const

Populates the request with the matching server and location blocks.

This method is intended to be called by the Reactor before the body is parsed, allowing for route-specific body validation (e.g., size limits).

Parameters

port	The port the connection was received on.
request	The HttpRequest object to populate.
