Hi all,
I figured it out. For anyone looking for the body of a POST
request in mathopd, here's how a function in C to get it easily.
NOTE: This function must be called AFTER process_headers(), preferably in
it's own code module, similar to how imap.c, dump.c, dummy.c, redirect.c
and cgi.c are set up.
<code>
/* get the POST body from the stream */
char *get_post_body (struct request *r)
{
int rv, size;
char *buffer;
size = atoi (r->in_content_length);
input_buffer = malloc (size);
fcntl (r->cn->fd, F_SETFL, 0);
rv = recv (r->cn->fd, input_buffer, size, MSG_PEEK);
if (rv == -1)
{
switch (errno) {
default:
log_d (
"get_post_body: error reading from %d",
r->cn->ip);
lerror ("recv");
case ECONNRESET:
r->cn->action = HC_CLOSING;
case EAGAIN:
return 0;
}
}
if (rv == 0)
{
log_d ("get_post_body: body empty");
r->cn->action = HC_CLOSING;
return 0;
}
fcntl (r->cn->fd, F_SETFL, O_NONBLOCK);
return buffer;
}
</code>
Hope this helps someone!
