Oliver,
A possible option that would work for both the client side caching and the
server would be to pass back a Cache-Control header with a max-age attached
when the 301 is returned.
I am thinking something like this:
if os.path.isdir(path):
parts = urllib.parse.urlsplit(self.path)
if not parts.path.endswith('/'):
# redirect browser - doing basically what apache does
self.send_response(HTTPStatus.MOVED_PERMANENTLY)
new_parts = (parts[0], parts[1], parts[2] + '/',
parts[3], parts[4])
new_url = urllib.parse.urlunsplit(new_parts)
self.send_header("Location", new_url)
self.send_header("Cache-Control", "max-age=600")
self.end_headers()
return None
for index in "index.html", "index.htm":
index = os.path.join(path, index)
if os.path.exists(index):
path = index
break
Possibly we could even provide some way for the max age to be variable.
Thoughts?
