It is possible that your post wasn't deleted but got held up in google's spam traps. I just approved a message from you (that I was alerted to only this morning). Was that the message?

Re: [racket-users] How to stream file uploads with the Racket web server?
Will Racket's pleasant surprises never end? :) This is great news! I've had a blast coding web applications in Racket over the last 15 months. I now understand "The Lisp Curse" a bit more :) http://winestockwebdesign.com/Essays/Lisp_Curse.html In other words, developing web apps with what is already provided by Racket, and a few packages, has been easy & enjoyable enough that it's delayed my work on a web framework. That's probably been for the best because now I have a few real world examples from which I can begin to extract the code that belongs in a general framework. I'll be resuming that work this month. I watched the "how to create a blog in 15 minutes w/ Rails" video 14 years ago, and it had a huge impact on my work. There are still some very nice things to steal from Rails, and a whole lot of things to leave :) If you're interested in web development, and you haven't seen this video, I highly recommend it. There are some annoyances for sure, but be patient. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gzj723LkRJY=youtu.be On Thursday, February 13, 2020 at 11:02:33 AM UTC-5, bogdan wrote: > > The version of the web-server that will be included with Racket 7.6 > changes the way file uploads are handled so that they get offloaded to > disk after a certain threshold (similar to how that nginx module you > linked to works). > > You can check out the pre-release docs for details: > > * > https://pre-release.racket-lang.org/doc/web-server/http.html?q=binding%3Afile#%28def._%28%28lib._web-server%2Fhttp%2Frequest-structs..rkt%29._make-binding~3afile%2Fport%29%29 > > * > https://pre-release.racket-lang.org/doc/web-server-internal/dispatch-server-unit.html#%28part._safety-limits%29 > > > To get these changes ahead of the release, you should be able to install > an updated version of `web-server-lib' from the package server or from > git. > > Hope that helps! > > - Bogdan > > Brian Adkins writes: > > > I'm posting a file to my web app using the following form: > > > > > method="post" *enctype="multipart/form-data"* > > class="file-upload-form"> > > ... > > > > > > I use a simple function to create a hashtable of attributes: > > > > (define (form-values req) > > (for/hash ([ b (in-list (request-bindings/raw req)) ]) > > (cond [ (binding:form? b) (values > >(bytes->string/utf-8 (binding-id b) > #\space) > >(bytes->string/utf-8 (binding:form-value > b) > > #\space)) ] > > [ (binding:file? b) (values > >(bytes->string/utf-8 (binding-id b) > #\space) > >(binding:file-content b)) ]))) > > > > It appears that the entire file contents are in the binding by the time > the > > request is available to me.

Re: [racket-users] How to stream file uploads with the Racket web server?
I tried replying earlier today, but somehow the post got deleted - could've been user error I suppose. Anyway, the gist of the response was how I continue to be amazed by how often I get pleasant surprises with Racket - either there is some facility to do what I want that I just haven't found yet, or in this case where there soon will be :) I have a couple Racket web apps in production now, so I think I have enough real world examples to begin extracting code into a web framework. Although it will look significantly different than Rails (more functional, less object oriented), I'm hoping to achieve similar ease-of-use functionality. I first viewed the Rails "weblog in 15 minutes" video fourteen years ago, and it had a significant impact on my professional life (at the time I was working in Java w/ Spring & Hibernate, etc.). The video is dated now & has some annoying idiosyncrasies, but if you haven't seen it, and you're interested in web development (in any language), it's worth viewing just to get the overview of Rails ease of use: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gzj723LkRJY=youtu.be On Thursday, February 13, 2020 at 11:02:33 AM UTC-5, bogdan wrote: > > The version of the web-server that will be included with Racket 7.6 > changes the way file uploads are handled so that they get offloaded to > disk after a certain threshold (similar to how that nginx module you > linked to works). > > You can check out the pre-release docs for details: > > * > https://pre-release.racket-lang.org/doc/web-server/http.html?q=binding%3Afile#%28def._%28%28lib._web-server%2Fhttp%2Frequest-structs..rkt%29._make-binding~3afile%2Fport%29%29 > > * > https://pre-release.racket-lang.org/doc/web-server-internal/dispatch-server-unit.html#%28part._safety-limits%29 > > > To get these changes ahead of the release, you should be able to install > an updated version of `web-server-lib' from the package server or from > git. > > Hope that helps! > > - Bogdan > > Brian Adkins writes: > > > I'm posting a file to my web app using the following form: > > > > > method="post" *enctype="multipart/form-data"* > > class="file-upload-form"> > > ... > > > > > > I use a simple function to create a hashtable of attributes: > > > > (define (form-values req) > > (for/hash ([ b (in-list (request-bindings/raw req)) ]) > > (cond [ (binding:form? b) (values > >(bytes->string/utf-8 (binding-id b) > #\space) > >(bytes->string/utf-8 (binding:form-value > b) > > #\space)) ] > > [ (binding:file? b) (values > >(bytes->string/utf-8 (binding-id b) > #\space) > >(binding:file-content b)) ]))) > > > > It appears that the entire file contents are in the binding by the time > the > > request is available to me.

Re: [racket-users] How to stream file uploads with the Racket web server?
The version of the web-server that will be included with Racket 7.6 changes the way file uploads are handled so that they get offloaded to disk after a certain threshold (similar to how that nginx module you linked to works). You can check out the pre-release docs for details: * https://pre-release.racket-lang.org/doc/web-server/http.html?q=binding%3Afile#%28def._%28%28lib._web-server%2Fhttp%2Frequest-structs..rkt%29._make-binding~3afile%2Fport%29%29 * https://pre-release.racket-lang.org/doc/web-server-internal/dispatch-server-unit.html#%28part._safety-limits%29 To get these changes ahead of the release, you should be able to install an updated version of `web-server-lib' from the package server or from git. Hope that helps! - Bogdan Brian Adkins writes: > I'm posting a file to my web app using the following form: > >method="post" *enctype="multipart/form-data"* > class="file-upload-form"> > ... > > > I use a simple function to create a hashtable of attributes: > > (define (form-values req) > (for/hash ([ b (in-list (request-bindings/raw req)) ]) > (cond [ (binding:form? b) (values >(bytes->string/utf-8 (binding-id b) #\space) >(bytes->string/utf-8 (binding:form-value b) > #\space)) ] > [ (binding:file? b) (values >(bytes->string/utf-8 (binding-id b) #\space) >(binding:file-content b)) ]))) > > It appears that the entire file contents are in the binding by the time the > request is available to me.
