Issue #14972 has been updated by naruse (Yui NARUSE).
Backport changed from 2.3: UNKNOWN, 2.4: UNKNOWN, 2.5: UNKNOWN to 2.3: DONTNEED, 2.4: \
DONTNEED, 2.5: DONTNEED Target version set to 2.7
I checked the code again and I noticed I wrote a code which depends current behavior \
before. It is to resume with the partially downloaded result.
I consider something like this code with a option or changing the behavior with \
migration period...

Bug #14972: Net::HTTP inconsistently raises EOFError when peer closes the connection
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14972#change-76570
* Author: joshc (Josh C)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee:
* Target version: 2.7
* ruby -v: ruby 2.4.3p205 (2017-12-14 revision 61247) [x86_64-darwin15]
* Backport: 2.3: DONTNEED, 2.4: DONTNEED, 2.5: DONTNEED
----------------------------------------
If chunked transfer encoding is used, and the peer closes the connection while the \
caller is reading data, then the `Net::HTTP::Response#read_body` method will raise \
`EOFError`. If chunked transfer encoding is not used (and an explicit \
`Content-Length` is used instead), the `read_body` method swallows the `EOFError` \
exception. I would expect `read_body` to raise EOFError if it reads fewer than \
`Content-Length` bytes.
The current behavior is explained by the `ignore_eof` parameter in \
https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/v2_4_3/lib/net/http/response.rb#L284-L301. However, \
RFC 7230 section 3.3.3 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.3.3 says:
~~~
5. If a valid Content-Length header field is present without
Transfer-Encoding, its decimal value defines the expected message
body length in octets. If the sender closes the connection or
the recipient times out before the indicated number of octets are
received, the recipient MUST consider the message to be
incomplete and close the connection.
~~~
As it is now, if chunked encoding is not used, then the caller is unaware when the \
response body is truncated. In order to detect it, the caller must count the number \
of bytes read until `Content-Length` is reached. However, that means you can't use \
ruby's automatic decompression, because `Content-Length` is the number of compressed \
bytes, while `read_body` yields chunks of uncompressed data.
Here's sample code to reproduce. Run the following http server. Note chunked is \
currently false, but can be toggled.
~~~
require 'webrick'
server = WEBrick::HTTPServer.new :Port => 8000
trap 'INT' do
server.shutdown
end
# toggle this
chunked = false
server.mount_proc '/' do |req, res|
res.status = 200
res['Content-Type'] = 'text/plain'
str = "0123456789" * 10000
res.body = str
if chunked
res.chunked = true
else
res['Content-Length'] = str.length
end
end
server.start
~~~
Run the following http client code. In order to simulate a closed connection, the \
block raises EOFError. ~~~
require 'net/http'
require 'uri'
uri = URI("http://localhost:8000/")
Net::HTTP.start(uri.host, uri.port) do |http|
http.request_get(uri.path) do |response|
response.read_body do |chunk|
puts "Read #{chunk.length} bytes"
raise EOFError.new("whoops")
end
end
end
puts "EOF was silently caught"
~~~
When chunked encoding is used, the exception is properly raised. I believe ruby is \
retrying the request because `GET` is idempotent:

~~~
When chunked encoding is not used, the exception is not raised:
~~~
ruby client.rb
Content-Length: 100000
Transfer-Encoding:
Read 0 bytes
EOF was silently caught
~~~
I verified the behavior exists as far back as ruby 1.9.3p551. It was introduced in \
https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/cdc7602379c9d911983db2c044d69ac417869266#diff-8c2ab8e0fb4f052e1d95ab6334e192c1R949.
