==============
HTTP Frontends
==============
.. contents::
The Ceph Object Gateway supports two embedded HTTP frontend libraries
that can be configured with ``rgw_frontends``.
Beast
=====
.. versionadded:: Mimic
The ``beast`` frontend uses the Boost.Beast library for HTTP parsing
and the Boost.Asio library for asynchronous network i/o.
Options
-------
``port``
:Description: Sets the listening port number.
:Type: Integer
:Default: ``80``
Civetweb
========
.. versionadded:: Firefly
The ``civetweb`` frontend uses the Civetweb HTTP library, which is a
fork of Mongoose.
Options
-------
``port``
:Description: Sets the listening port number. For SSL-enabled ports, add an
``s`` suffix like ``443s``. To bind a specific IPv4 or IPv6
address, use the form ``address:port``. Multiple endpoints
can be separated by ``+`` as in ``127.0.0.1:8000+443s``.
:Type: String
:Default: ``7480``
``num_threads``
:Description: Sets the number of threads spawned by Civetweb to handle
incoming HTTP connections. This effectively limits the number
of concurrent connections that the frontend can service.
:Type: Integer
:Default: ``rgw_thread_pool_size``
``request_timeout_ms``
:Description: The amount of time in milliseconds that Civetweb will wait
for more incoming data before giving up.
:Type: Integer
:Default: ``30000``
``ssl_certificate``
:Description: Path to the SSL certificate file used for SSL-enabled ports.
:Type: String
:Default: None
A complete list of supported options can be found in the `Civetweb User Manual`_.
Generic Options
===============
Some frontend options are generic and supported by all frontends:
``prefix``
:Description: A prefix string that is inserted into the URI of all
requests. For example, a swift-only frontend could supply
a uri prefix of ``/swift``.
:Type: String
:Default: None
