.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Pp
These functions implement a high-level library for retrieving and
uploading files using Uniform Resource Locators (URLs).
.Pp
.Fn fetchParseURL
takes a URL in the form of a null-terminated string and splits it into
its components function according to the Common Internet Scheme Syntax
detailed in RFC1738.
A regular expression which produces this syntax is:
.Bd -literal
    <scheme>:(//(<user>(:<pwd>)?@)?<host>(:<port>)?)?/(<document>)?
.Ed
.Pp
Note that some components of the URL are not necessarily relevant to
all URL schemes.
For instance, the file scheme only needs the <scheme>
and <document> components.
.Pp
.Fn fetchMakeURL
and
.Fn fetchParseURL
return a pointer to a
.Fa url
structure, which is defined as follows in
.Aq Pa fetch.h :
.Bd -literal
#define URL_SCHEMELEN 16
#define URL_USERLEN 256
#define URL_PWDLEN 256

struct url {
    char	 scheme[URL_SCHEMELEN+1];
    char	 user[URL_USERLEN+1];
    char	 pwd[URL_PWDLEN+1];
    char	 host[MAXHOSTNAMELEN+1];
    int		 port;
    char	*doc;
    off_t	 offset;
    size_t	 length;
};
.Ed
.Pp
The pointer returned by
.Fn fetchMakeURL
or
.Fn fetchParseURL
should be freed using
.Fn fetchFreeURL .
.Pp
.Fn fetchXGetURL ,
.Fn fetchGetURL ,
and
.Fn fetchPutURL
constitute the recommended interface to the
.Nm fetch
library.
They examine the URL passed to them to determine the transfer
method, and call the appropriate lower-level functions to perform the
actual transfer.
.Fn fetchXGetURL
also returns the remote document's metadata in the
.Fa url_stat
structure pointed to by the
.Fa us
argument.
.Pp
The 
.Fa flags
argument is a string of characters which specify transfer options.
The
meaning of the individual flags is scheme-dependent, and is detailed
in the appropriate section below.
.Pp
.Fn fetchStatURL
attempts to obtain the requested document's metadata and fill in the
structure pointed to by it's second argument.
The
.Fa url_stat
structure is defined as follows in
.Aq Pa fetch.h :
.Bd -literal
struct url_stat {
    off_t	 size;
    time_t	 atime;
    time_t	 mtime;
};
.Ed
.Pp
If the size could not be obtained from the server, the
.Fa size
field is set to -1.
If the modification time could not be obtained from the server, the
.Fa mtime
field is set to the epoch.
If the access time could not be obtained from the server, the
.Fa atime
field is set to the modification time.
.Pp
.Fn fetchListURL
attempts to list the contents of the directory pointed to by the URL
provided.
If successful, it returns a malloced array of
.Fa url_ent
structures.
The
.Fa url_ent
structure is defined as follows in
.Aq Pa fetch.h :
.Bd -literal
struct url_ent {
    char         name[MAXPATHLEN];
    struct url_stat stat;
};
.Ed
.Pp
The list is terminated by an entry with an empty name.
.Pp
The pointer returned by
.Fn fetchListURL
should be freed using
.Fn free .
.Pp
.Fn fetchXGet ,
.Fn fetchGet ,
.Fn fetchPut
and
.Fn fetchStat
are similar to
.Fn fetchXGetURL ,
.Fn fetchGetURL ,
.Fn fetchPutURL
and
.Fn fetchStatURL ,
except that they expect a pre-parsed URL in the form of a pointer to
a
.Fa struct url
rather than a string.
.Pp
All of the
.Fn fetchXGetXXX ,
.Fn fetchGetXXX
and
.Fn fetchPutXXX
functions return a pointer to a stream which can be used to read or
write data from or to the requested document, respectively.
Note that
although the implementation details of the individual access methods
vary, it can generally be assumed that a stream returned by one of the
.Fn fetchXGetXXX
or
.Fn fetchGetXXX
functions is read-only, and that a stream returned by one of the
.Fn fetchPutXXX
functions is write-only.
.Sh FILE SCHEME
.Fn fetchXGetFile ,
.Fn fetchGetFile
and
.Fn fetchPutFile
provide access to documents which are files in a locally mounted file
system.
Only the <document> component of the URL is used.
.Pp
.Fn fetchXGetFile
and
.Fn fetchGetFile
do not accept any flags.
.Pp
.Fn fetchPutFile
accepts the
.Fa a
(append to file) flag.
If that flag is specified, the data written to
the stream returned by
.Fn fetchPutFile
will be appended to the previous contents of the file, instead of
replacing them.
.Sh FTP SCHEME
.Fn fetchXGetFTP ,
.Fn fetchGetFTP
and
.Fn fetchPutFTP
implement the FTP protocol as described in RFC959.
.Pp
If the
.Fa p
(passive) flag is specified, a passive (rather than active) connection
will be attempted.
.Pp
If the
.Fa h
(high) flag is specified, data sockets will be allocated in the high
port range (see
.Xr ip 4 ).
.Pp
If the
.Fa d
(direct) flag is specified,
.Fn fetchXGetFTP ,
.Fn fetchGetFTP
and
.Fn fetchPutFTP
will use a direct connection even if a proxy server is defined.
.Pp
If no user name or password is given, the
.Nm fetch
library will attempt an anonymous login, with user name "ftp" and
password "ftp".
.Sh HTTP SCHEME
The
.Fn fetchXGetHTTP ,
.Fn fetchGetHTTP
and
.Fn fetchPutHTTP
functions implement the HTTP/1.1 protocol.
With a little luck, there's
even a chance that they comply with RFC2068.
.Pp
If the
.Fa d
(direct) flag is specified,
.Fn fetchXGetHTTP ,
.Fn fetchGetHTTP
and
.Fn fetchPutHTTP
will use a direct connection even if a proxy server is defined.
.Pp
Since there seems to be no good way of implementing the HTTP PUT
method in a manner consistent with the rest of the
.Nm fetch
library,
.Fn fetchPutHTTP
is currently unimplemented.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn fetchParseURL
returns a pointer to a
.Fa struct url
containing the individual components of the URL.
If it is
unable to allocate memory, or the URL is syntactically incorrect,
.Fn fetchParseURL
returns a NULL pointer.
.Pp
The 
.Fn fetchStat
functions return 0 on success and -1 on failure.
.Pp
All other functions return a stream pointer which may be used to
access the requested document, or NULL if an error occurred.
.Pp
The following error codes are defined in
.Aq Pa fetch.h :
.Bl -tag -width 18n
.It Bq Er FETCH_ABORT
Operation aborted    
.It Bq Er FETCH_AUTH
Authentication failed    
.It Bq Er FETCH_DOWN
Service unavailable    
.It Bq Er FETCH_EXISTS
File exists    
.It Bq Er FETCH_FULL
File system full   
.It Bq Er FETCH_INFO
Informational response    
.It Bq Er FETCH_MEMORY
Insufficient memory    
.It Bq Er FETCH_MOVED
File has moved   
.It Bq Er FETCH_NETWORK
Network error    
.It Bq Er FETCH_OK
No error    
.It Bq Er FETCH_PROTO
Protocol error    
.It Bq Er FETCH_RESOLV
Resolver error    
.It Bq Er FETCH_SERVER
Server error    
.It Bq Er FETCH_TEMP
Temporary error    
.It Bq Er FETCH_TIMEOUT
Operation timed out   
.It Bq Er FETCH_UNAVAIL
File is not available  
.It Bq Er FETCH_UNKNOWN
Unknown error    
.It Bq Er FETCH_URL
Invalid URL
.El
.Pp
The accompanying error message includes a protocol-specific error code
and message, e.g. "File is not available (404 Not Found)"
.Sh ENVIRONMENT
.Bl -tag -width HTTP_PROXY_AUTH
.It Ev FTP_PROXY
Host name of the FTP proxy to use, optionally followed by a port
number separated from the host name by a colon.
.Nm libfetch
will send
.Ql user@host
as user name to the proxy, where
.Ql user
is the real user name, and
.Ql host
is the name of the FTP server.
.Pp
If this variable is set to an empty string, no proxy will be used for
FTP requests, even if the
.Ev HTTP_PROXY
variable is set.
.It Ev HTTP_AUTH
Specifies HTTP authorization parameters as a colon-separated list of
items.
The first and second item are the authorization scheme and realm
respectively; further items are scheme-dependent.
Currently, only basic authorization is supported.
.Pp
Basic authorization requires two parameters: the user name and
password, in that order.
.Pp
This variable is only used if the server requires authorization and
no user name or password was specified in the URL.
.It Ev HTTP_PROXY
host name of the HTTP proxy to use, optionally followed by a port
number separated from the host name by a colon.
If no port number is specified, the default is 3128.
.Pp
Note that the HTTP proxy will also be used for FTP documents, unless
the
.Ev FTP_PROXY
variable is set.
.It Ev HTTP_PROXY_AUTH
Specifies authorization parameters for the HTTP proxy in the same
format as the
.Ev HTTP_AUTH
variable.
.Pp
The value of this variable is used if and only if connected to an HTTP
proxy.

.Sh HISTORY
The
.Nm fetch
library first appeared in
.Fx 3.0 .
.Sh AUTHORS
The
.Nm fetch
library was mostly written by
.An Dag-Erling Coïdan Smørgrav Aq des@FreeBSD.org
with numerous suggestions from
.An Jordan K. Hubbard Aq jkh@FreeBSD.org ,
.An Eugene Skepner Aq eu@qub.com
and other FreeBSD developers.
It replaces the older
.Nm ftpio
library written by
.An Poul-Henning Kamp Aq pkh@FreeBSD.org
and
.An Jordan K. Hubbard Aq jkh@FreeBSD.org .
.Pp
This manual page was written by
.An Dag-Erling Coïdan Smørgrav Aq des@FreeBSD.org
.Sh BUGS
Some parts of the library are not yet implemented.
The most notable
examples of this are
.Fn fetchPutHTTP ,
.Fn fetchListHTTP ,
.Fn fetchListFTP
and FTP proxy support.
.Pp
There's no way to select a proxy at run-time other than setting the
.Ev HTTP_PROXY
or
.Ev FTP_PROXY
environment variables as appropriate.
.Pp
.Nm libfetch
does not attempt to interpret and respond to authentication requests
from the HTTP server or proxy (code 401 and 407 respectively).
.Pp
.Nm libfetch
does not understand or obey 305 (Use Proxy) replies.
.Pp
No attempt is made to encode spaces etc. within URLs.
Spaces in the
document part of an URLshould be replaced with "%20" in HTTP URLs and
"\\ " in FTP URLs.
.Pp
Error numbers are unique only within a certain context; the error
codes used for FTP and HTTP overlap, as do those used for resolver and
system errors.
For instance, error code 202 means "Command not
implemented, superfluous at this site" in an FTP context and
"Accepted" in an HTTP context.
.Pp
.Fn fetchStatFTP
does not check that the result of an MDTM command is a valid date.
.Pp
The HTTP code needs a complete rewrite, or at least a serious cleanup.
.Pp
The man page is incomplete, poorly written and produces badly
formatted text.
.Pp
The error reporting mechanism is unsatisfactory.
.Pp
Some parts of the code are not fully reentrant.
.Pp
Tons of other stuff.
