From 2ec8ca5e6046b207eabe008101631b978758ac6d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard van der Hoff <1389908+richvdh@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Tue, 12 Jan 2021 12:34:16 +0000 Subject: Remove SynapseRequest.get_user_agent (#9069) SynapseRequest is in danger of becoming a bit of a dumping-ground for "useful stuff relating to Requests", which isn't really its intention (its purpose is to override render, finished and connectionLost to set up the LoggingContext and write the right entries to the request log). Putting utility functions inside SynapseRequest means that lots of our code ends up requiring a SynapseRequest when there is nothing synapse-specific about the Request at all, and any old twisted.web.iweb.IRequest will do. This increases code coupling and makes testing more difficult. In short: move get_user_agent out to a utility function. --- synapse/http/__init__.py | 15 +++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+) (limited to 'synapse/http/__init__.py') diff --git a/synapse/http/__init__.py b/synapse/http/__init__.py index 59b01b812c..4bc3cb53f0 100644 --- a/synapse/http/__init__.py +++ b/synapse/http/__init__.py @@ -17,6 +17,7 @@ import re from twisted.internet import task from twisted.web.client import FileBodyProducer +from twisted.web.iweb import IRequest from synapse.api.errors import SynapseError @@ -50,3 +51,17 @@ class QuieterFileBodyProducer(FileBodyProducer): FileBodyProducer.stopProducing(self) except task.TaskStopped: pass + + +def get_request_user_agent(request: IRequest, default: str = "") -> str: + """Return the last User-Agent header, or the given default. + """ + # There could be raw utf-8 bytes in the User-Agent header. + + # N.B. if you don't do this, the logger explodes cryptically + # with maximum recursion trying to log errors about + # the charset problem. + # c.f. https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/3471 + + h = request.getHeader(b"User-Agent") + return h.decode("ascii", "replace") if h else default -- cgit 1.4.1
