## Phase 2.4: Content Negotiation Implementation
### Overview (Completed 2025-11-26)
Implemented HTTP content negotiation for feed formats, allowing clients to request their preferred format via Accept headers while maintaining backward compatibility and providing explicit format endpoints.
**Time Invested**: 1 hour (as estimated)
### Implementation Details
#### Content Negotiation Module
Created `starpunk/feeds/negotiation.py` with three main functions:
**1. Accept Header Parsing**
```python
def _parse_accept_header(accept_header: str) -> List[tuple]:
"""
Parse Accept header into (mime_type, quality) tuples
Features:
- Parses quality factors (q=0.9)
- Sorts by quality (highest first)
- Handles wildcards (*/* and application/*)
- Simple implementation (StarPunk philosophy)
"""
```
**2. Format Scoring**
```python
def _score_format(format_name: str, media_types: List[tuple]) -> float:
"""
Score a format based on Accept header
Matching:
- Exact MIME type match (e.g., application/rss+xml)
- Alternative MIME types (e.g., application/json for JSON Feed)
- Wildcard matches (*/* and application/*)
- Returns highest quality score
"""
```
**3. Format Negotiation**
```python
def negotiate_feed_format(accept_header: str, available_formats: List[str]) -> str:
"""
Determine best feed format from Accept header
Returns:
- Best matching format name ('rss', 'atom', or 'json')
Raises:
- ValueError if no acceptable format (caller returns 406)
Default behavior:
- Wildcards (*/*) default to RSS
- Quality ties default to RSS, then ATOM, then JSON
"""
```
**4. MIME Type Helper**
```python
def get_mime_type(format_name: str) -> str:
"""Get MIME type string for format name"""
```
#### MIME Type Mappings
```python
MIME_TYPES = {
'rss': 'application/rss+xml',
'atom': 'application/atom+xml',
'json': 'application/feed+json',
}
MIME_TO_FORMAT = {
'application/rss+xml': 'rss',
'application/atom+xml': 'atom',
'application/feed+json': 'json',
'application/json': 'json', # Also accept generic JSON
}
```
### Route Implementation
#### Content Negotiation Endpoint
Added `/feed` endpoint to `starpunk/routes/public.py`:
```python
@bp.route("/feed")
def feed():
"""
Content negotiation endpoint for feeds
Behavior:
- Parse Accept header
- Negotiate format (RSS, ATOM, or JSON)
- Route to appropriate generator
- Return 406 if no acceptable format
"""
```
Example requests:
```bash
# Request ATOM feed
curl -H "Accept: application/atom+xml" https://example.com/feed
# Request JSON Feed with fallback
curl -H "Accept: application/json, */*;q=0.8" https://example.com/feed
# Browser (defaults to RSS)
curl -H "Accept: text/html,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8" https://example.com/feed
```
#### Explicit Format Endpoints
Added four explicit endpoints:
```python
@bp.route("/feed.rss")
def feed_rss():
"""Explicit RSS 2.0 feed"""
@bp.route("/feed.atom")
def feed_atom():
"""Explicit ATOM 1.0 feed"""
@bp.route("/feed.json")
def feed_json():
"""Explicit JSON Feed 1.1"""
@bp.route("/feed.xml")
def feed_xml_legacy():
"""Backward compatibility - redirects to /feed.rss"""
```
#### Cache Helper Function
Added shared note caching function:
```python
def _get_cached_notes():
"""
Get cached note list or fetch fresh notes
Benefits:
- Single cache for all formats
- Reduces repeated DB queries
- Respects FEED_CACHE_SECONDS config
"""
```
All endpoints use this shared cache, ensuring consistent behavior.
### Test Coverage
#### Unit Tests (41 tests)
Created `tests/test_feeds_negotiation.py`:
**Accept Header Parsing (12 tests)**:
- Single and multiple media types
- Quality factor parsing and sorting
- Wildcard handling (`*/*` and `application/*`)
- Whitespace handling
- Invalid quality factor handling
- Quality clamping (0-1 range)
**Format Scoring (6 tests)**:
- Exact MIME type matching
- Wildcard matching
- Type wildcard matching
- No match scenarios
- Best quality selection
- Invalid format handling
**Format Negotiation (17 tests)**:
- Exact format matches (RSS, ATOM, JSON)
- Generic `application/json` matching JSON Feed
- Wildcard defaults to RSS
- Quality factor selection
- Tie-breaking (prefers RSS > ATOM > JSON)
- No acceptable format raises ValueError
- Complex Accept headers
- Browser-like Accept headers
- Feed reader Accept headers
- JSON API client Accept headers
**Helper Functions (6 tests)**:
- `get_mime_type()` for all formats
- MIME type constant validation
- Error handling for unknown formats
#### Integration Tests (22 tests)
Created `tests/test_routes_feeds.py`:
**Explicit Endpoints (4 tests)**:
- `/feed.rss` returns RSS with correct MIME type
- `/feed.atom` returns ATOM with correct MIME type
- `/feed.json` returns JSON Feed with correct MIME type
- `/feed.xml` backward compatibility
**Content Negotiation (10 tests)**:
- Accept: application/rss+xml → RSS
- Accept: application/atom+xml → ATOM
- Accept: application/feed+json → JSON Feed
- Accept: application/json → JSON Feed
- Accept: */* → RSS (default)
- No Accept header → RSS
- Quality factors work correctly
- Browser Accept headers → RSS
- Returns 406 for unsupported formats
**Cache Headers (3 tests)**:
- All formats include Cache-Control header
- Respects FEED_CACHE_SECONDS config
**Feed Content (3 tests)**:
- All formats contain test notes
- Content is correct for each format
**Backward Compatibility (2 tests)**:
- `/feed.xml` returns same content as `/feed.rss`
- `/feed.xml` contains valid RSS
### Design Decisions
#### Simplicity Over RFC Compliance
Per StarPunk philosophy, implemented simple content negotiation rather than full RFC 7231 compliance:
**What We Implemented**:
- Basic quality factor parsing (split on `;`, parse `q=`)
- Exact MIME type matching
- Wildcard matching (`*/*` and type wildcards)
- Default to RSS on ties
**What We Skipped**:
- Complex media type parameters
- Character set negotiation
- Language negotiation
- Partial matches on parameters
This covers 99% of real-world use cases with 1% of the complexity.
#### Default Format Selection
Chose RSS as default for several reasons:
1. **Universal Support**: Every feed reader supports RSS
2. **Backward Compatibility**: Existing tools expect RSS
3. **Wildcard Behavior**: `*/*` should return most compatible format
4. **User Expectation**: RSS is synonymous with "feed"
On quality ties, preference order is RSS > ATOM > JSON Feed.
#### Dual Endpoint Strategy
Implemented both content negotiation AND explicit endpoints:
**Benefits**:
- Content negotiation for smart clients
- Explicit endpoints for simple cases
- Clear URLs for users (`/feed.atom` vs `/feed?format=atom`)
- No query string pollution
- Easy to bookmark specific formats
**Backward Compatibility**:
- `/feed.xml` continues to work (maps to `/feed.rss`)
- No breaking changes to existing feed consumers
