goserveR 0.1.3-0.90000

• Dynamic authentication management functions (addAuthKey(), removeAuthKey(), listAuthKeys()) now work with the new server-based auth system.
• removed unsafe pointer arithmetic in Go.
• Changed cph

goserveR 0.1.3

• MAJOR: Added support for serving multiple directories from a single server instance. The dir and prefix parameters now accept character vectors of the same length, allowing one server to serve different directories at different URL prefixes.
• BREAKING CHANGE: dir and prefix parameters now accept vectors instead of just single values (backward compatible for single values).
• Enhanced server logging to show all registered directory/prefix pairs during startup.
• Updated server listing to display multiple directories and prefixes in a comma-separated format.
• Improved memory management for handling multiple directory/prefix arrays in C code.
• Updated documentation with comprehensive examples of multiple directory serving.
• All existing functionality remains backward compatible.

goserveR 0.1.2-0.92000

• NEW: Added API key authentication support via auth_keys parameter in runServer(). Users can now secure their file servers with API key authentication using the X-API-Key header.
• Authentication can be combined with TLS for secure, authenticated HTTPS file serving.
• Enhanced security features for production-ready deployments.
• Updated documentation with comprehensive authentication examples.
• All authentication functionality is thoroughly tested and documented.

goserveR 0.1.2-0.91000

• NEW: Added custom log handler support via log_handler parameter in runServer(). Users can now provide custom functions to process server logs (e.g., file logging, custom formatting).
• Fixed race conditions in background log handlers that could cause test hanging during server shutdown.
• Improved thread-safe coordination between server shutdown and async log handler cleanup.
• Enhanced error handling in log callback functions to prevent cascading failures.
• Added proper input handler removal during server finalization to prevent reading from closed pipes.
• All tests now pass reliably without hanging issues during concurrent server operations.
• Added comprehensive tests for custom log handler functionality.

goserveR 0.1.2

• Serve files and directories at the correct URL paths by default (root or prefix), matching standard Go FileServer behavior.
• Directory listing is enabled by default if no index.html is present.
• Always use the absolute path for the served directory at the Go level for robust file serving and logging.
• TLS (tls=TRUE) now reliably enables HTTPS; usage and documentation clarified.
• Range requests and CORS remain fully supported.
• All tinytest tests pass after these changes.

goserveR 0.1.1-3.90000

• Interrupt handling is now fully managed at the C level: the Go server runs in a background thread, and the main C thread checks for user interrupts and signals shutdown if needed.
• Improved portability: platform abstraction macros for threading, pipes, and sleep were added to support both UNIX and Windows (RTools) builds.
• All server output and interrupt handling now work robustly in both blocking and background modes.
• Updated documentation to reflect new architecture and usage.

goserveR 0.1.1

• Bumped version to 0.1.1.
• Initial release of the package with HTTP file server functionality.
• Supports range requests and unbounded CORS.
• Provides an interface to call Go functions from R using cgo.
