The Mosmlcgi library is for writing CGI programs in Moscow ML. A
CGI program may be installed on a WWW server and is invoked in
response to HTTP requests sent to the server from a web browser,
typically from an HTML FORM element.
1. Obtaining field values sent from an ordinary HTML form
---------------------------------------------------------
[cgi_fieldnames] is a list of the names of fields present in the
CGI call message. If field name fnm is in cgi_fieldnames, then
cgi_field_string fnm <> NONE.
[cgi_field_strings fnm] is a (possibly empty) list of the strings
bound to field fnm.
[cgi_field_string fnm] returns SOME(s) where s is a string bound to
field name fnm, if any; otherwise NONE. Equivalent to
case cgi_field_strings fnm of
[] => NONE
| s :: _ => SOME s
[cgi_field_integer (fnm, deflt)] attempts to parse an integer from
field fnm. Returns i if cgi_field_string(fnm) = SOME(s) and an
integer i can be parsed from a prefix of s; otherwise returns deflt.
2. Obtaining field values sent with ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[cgi_partnames] is a list of the names of the parts of the
multipart/form-data message.
The type part is the abstract type of parts of a message. Each part
may have several fields. In this implementation, the field of a
part cannot be a another part itself.
[cgi_parts pnm] is a (possibly empty) list of the parts called pnm.
[cgi_part pnm] is SOME(prt) where prt is a part called pnm, if any;
otherwise NONE. Equivalent to
case cgi_parts pnm of
[] => NONE
| prt :: _ => SOME prt
[part_fieldnames prt] is the list of field names in part pnm.
[part_type prt] is SOME(typ) if the part prt contains a specification
`Context-Type: typ'; otherwise NONE.
[part_data prt] is the data contain in part prt; for instance, the
contents of a file uploaded via form-based file upload.
[part_field_strings prt fnm] is a (possibly empty) list of the
strings bound to field fnm in part prt.
[part_field_string prt fnm] returns SOME(s) where s is a string
bound to field name fnm in part prt, if any; otherwise NONE.
Equivalent to
case part_field_strings prt fnm of
[] => NONE
| s :: _ => SOME s
[part_field_integer prt (fnm, deflt)] attempts to parse an integer
from field fnm of part prt. Returns i if part_field_string prt fnm
= SOME(s) and an integer i can be parsed from a prefix of s;
otherwise returns deflt.
3. Administrative and server information
----------------------------------------
Each of the following variables has the value SOME(s) if the
corresponding CGI environment variable is bound to string s;
otherwise NONE:
[cgi_server_software] is the value of SERVER_SOFTWARE
[cgi_server_name] is the value of SERVER_NAME
[cgi_gateway_interface] is the value of GATEWAY_INTERFACE
[cgi_server_protocol] is the value of SERVER_PROTOCOL
[cgi_server_port] is the value of SERVER_PORT
[cgi_request_method] is the value of REQUEST_METHOD
[cgi_http_accept] is the value of HTTP_ACCEPT
[cgi_http_user_agent] is the value of HTTP_USER_AGENT
[cgi_http_referer] is the value of HTTP_REFERER
[cgi_path_info] is the value of PATH_INFO
[cgi_path_translated] is the value of PATH_TRANSLATED
[cgi_script_name] is the value of SCRIPT_NAME
[cgi_query_string] is the value of QUERY_STRING
[cgi_remote_host] is the value of REMOTE_HOST
[cgi_remote_addr] is the value of REMOTE_ADDR
[cgi_remote_user] is the value of REMOTE_USER
[cgi_remote_ident] is the value of REMOTE_IDENT
[cgi_auth_type] is the value of AUTH_TYPE
[cgi_content_type] is the value of CONTENT_TYPE
[cgi_content_length] is the value of CONTENT_LENGTH, that is, the
length of the data transmitted in the CGI call.
[cgi_annotation_server] is the value of ANNOTATION_SERVER
[cgi_http_cookie] is the value of HTTP_COOKIE
[cgi_http_forwarded] is the value of HTTP_FORWARDED
[cgi_http_host] is the value of HTTP_HOST
[cgi_http_proxy_connection] is the value of HTTP_PROXY_CONNECTION
[cgi_script_filename] is the value of SCRIPT_FILENAME
[cgi_document_root] is the value of DOCUMENT_ROOT
[cgi_server_admin] is the value of SERVER_ADMIN
[cgi_api_version] is the value of API_VERSION
[cgi_the_request] is the value of THE_REQUEST
[cgi_request_uri] is the value of REQUEST_URI
[cgi_request_filename] is the value of REQUEST_FILENAME
[cgi_is_subreq] is the value of IS_SUBREQ
