	Session manager process: it spawns a new process, passing a
	command line argument, to just be a little key/value store
	of some serializable struct. On Windows, it CreateProcess.
	On Linux, it can just fork or maybe fork/exec. The session
	key is in a cookie.

	Server-side event process: spawns an async manager. You can
	push stuff out to channel ids and the clients listen to it.

	websocket process: spawns an async handler. They can talk to
	each other or get info from a cgi request.

	Tempting to put web.d 2.0 in here. It would:
		* map urls and form generation to functions
		* have data presentation magic
		* do the skeleton stuff like 1.0
		* auto-cache generated stuff in files (at least if pure?)
		* introspect functions in json for consumers

/++
	Provides a uniform server-side API for CGI, FastCGI, SCGI, and HTTP web applications.

	---
	import arsd.cgi;

	// Instead of writing your own main(), you should write a function
	// that takes a Cgi param, and use mixin GenericMain
	// for maximum compatibility with different web servers.
	void hello(Cgi cgi) {
		cgi.setResponseContentType("text/plain");

		if("name" in cgi.get)
			cgi.write("Hello, " ~ cgi.get["name"]);
		else
			cgi.write("Hello, world!");
	}

	mixin GenericMain!hello;
	---

	Test on console (works in any interface mode):
	$(CONSOLE
		$ ./cgi_hello GET / name=whatever
	)

	If using http version (default on `dub` builds, or on custom builds when passing `-version=embedded_httpd` to dmd):
	$(CONSOLE
		$ ./cgi_hello --port 8080
		# now you can go to http://localhost:8080/?name=whatever
	)


	Compile_versions:

	If you are using `dub`, use:

	```sdlang
	subConfiguration "arsd-official:cgi" "VALUE_HERE"
	```

	or to dub.json:

	```json
        	"subConfigurations": {"arsd-official:cgi": "VALUE_HERE"}
	```

	to change versions. The possible options for `VALUE_HERE` are:

	$(LIST
		* `embedded_httpd` for the embedded httpd version (built-in web server). This is the default.
		* `cgi` for traditional cgi binaries.
		* `fastcgi` for FastCGI builds.
		* `scgi` for SCGI builds.
	)

	With dmd, use:

	$(TABLE_ROWS

		* + Interfaces
		  + (mutually exclusive)

		* - `-version=plain_cgi`
			- The default building the module alone without dub - a traditional, plain CGI executable will be generated.
		* - `-version=embedded_httpd`
			- A HTTP server will be embedded in the generated executable. This is default when building with dub.
		* - `-version=fastcgi`
			- A FastCGI executable will be generated.
		* - `-version=scgi`
			- A SCGI (SimpleCGI) executable will be generated.

		* - `-version=embedded_httpd_threads`
			- The embedded HTTP server will use a single process with a thread pool. (use instead of plain `embedded_httpd` if you want this specific implementation)
		* - `-version=embedded_httpd_processes`
			- The embedded HTTP server will use a prefork style process pool. (use instead of plain `embedded_httpd` if you want this specific implementation)
		* - `-version=embedded_httpd_processes_accept_after_fork`
			- It will call accept() in each child process, after forking. This is currently the only option, though I am experimenting with other ideas. You probably should NOT specify this right now.

		* + Tweaks
		  + (can be used together with others)

		* - `-version=cgi_with_websocket`
			- The CGI class has websocket server support.

		* - `-version=with_openssl`
			- not currently used
		* - `-version=cgi_embedded_sessions`
			- The session server will be embedded in the cgi.d server process
		* - `-version=cgi_session_server_process`
			- The session will be provided in a separate process, provided by cgi.d.
	)

	Compile_and_run:
	
	For CGI, `dmd yourfile.d cgi.d` then put the executable in your cgi-bin directory.

	For FastCGI: `dmd yourfile.d cgi.d -version=fastcgi` and run it. spawn-fcgi helps on nginx. You can put the file in the directory for Apache. On IIS, run it with a port on the command line.

	For SCGI: `dmd yourfile.d cgi.d -version=scgi` and run the executable, providing a port number on the command line.

	For an embedded HTTP server, run `dmd yourfile.d cgi.d -version=embedded_httpd` and run the generated program. It listens on port 8085 by default. You can change this on the command line with the --port option when running your program.

	You can also simulate a request by passing parameters on the command line, like:

	$(CONSOLE
	./yourprogram GET / name=adr
	)

	And it will print the result to stdout.

	CGI_Setup_tips:

	On Apache, you may do `SetHandler cgi-script` in your `.htaccess` file.

	Integration_tips:

	cgi.d works well with dom.d for generating html. You may also use web.d for other utilities and automatic api wrapping.

	dom.d usage:

	---
		import arsd.cgi;
		import arsd.dom;

		void hello_dom(Cgi cgi) {
			auto document = new Document();

			static import std.file;
			// parse the file in strict mode, requiring it to be well-formed UTF-8 XHTML
			// (You'll appreciate this if you've ever had to deal with a missing </div>
			// or something in a php or erb template before that would randomly mess up
			// the output in your browser. Just check it and throw an exception early!)
			//
			// You could also hard-code a template or load one at compile time with an
			// import expression, but you might appreciate making it a regular file
			// because that means it can be more easily edited by the frontend team and
			// they can see their changes without needing to recompile the program.
			//
			// Note on CTFE: if you do choose to load a static file at compile time,
			// you *can* parse it in CTFE using enum, which will cause it to throw at
			// compile time, which is kinda cool too. Be careful in modifying that document,
			// though, as it will be a static instance. You might want to clone on on demand,
			// or perhaps modify it lazily as you print it out. (Try element.tree, it returns
			// a range of elements which you could send through std.algorithm functions. But
			// since my selector implementation doesn't work on that level yet, you'll find that
			// harder to use. Of course, you could make a static list of matching elements and
			// then use a simple e is e2 predicate... :) )
			document.parseUtf8(std.file.read("your_template.html"), true, true);

			// fill in data using DOM functions, so placing it is in the hands of HTML
			// and it will be properly encoded as text too.
			//
			// Plain html templates can't run server side logic, but I think that's a
			// good thing - it keeps them simple. You may choose to extend the html,
			// but I think it is best to try to stick to standard elements and fill them
			// in with requested data with IDs or class names. A further benefit of
			// this is the designer can also highlight data based on sources in the CSS.
			//
			// However, all of dom.d is available, so you can format your data however
			// you like. You can do partial templates with innerHTML too, or perhaps better,
			// injecting cloned nodes from a partial document.
			//
			// There's a lot of possibilities.
			document["#name"].innerText = cgi.request("name", "default name");

			// send the document to the browser. The second argument to `cgi.write`
			// indicates that this is all the data at once, enabling a few small
			// optimizations.
			cgi.write(document.toString(), true);
		}

	Guide_for_PHP_users:
		If you are coming from PHP, here's a quick guide to help you get started:

		$(SIDE_BY_SIDE
			$(COLUMN
				```php
				<?php
					$foo = $_POST["foo"];
					$bar = $_GET["bar"];
					$baz = $_COOKIE["baz"];

					$user_ip = $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"];
					$host = $_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"];
					$path = $_SERVER["PATH_INFO"];

					setcookie("baz", "some value");

					echo "hello!";
				?>
				```
			)
			$(COLUMN
				---
				import arsd.cgi;
				void app(Cgi cgi) {
					string foo = cgi.post["foo"];
					string bar = cgi.get["bar"];
					string baz = cgi.cookies["baz"];

					string user_ip = cgi.remoteAddress;
					string host = cgi.host;
					string path = cgi.pathInfo;

					cgi.setCookie("baz", "some value");

					cgi.write("hello!");
				}

				mixin GenericMain!app
				---
			)
		)

		$(H3 Array elements)


		In PHP, you can give a form element a name like `"something[]"`, and then
		`$_POST["something"]` gives an array. In D, you can use whatever name
		you want, and access an array of values with the `cgi.getArray["name"]` and
		`cgi.postArray["name"]` members.

		$(H3 Databases)

		PHP has a lot of stuff in its standard library. cgi.d doesn't include most
		of these, but the rest of my arsd repository has much of it. For example,
		to access a MySQL database, download `database.d` and `mysql.d` from my
		github repo, and try this code (assuming, of course, your database is
		set up):

		---
		import arsd.cgi;
		import arsd.mysql;

		void app(Cgi cgi) {
			auto database = new MySql("localhost", "username", "password", "database_name");
			foreach(row; mysql.query("SELECT count(id) FROM people"))
				cgi.write(row[0] ~ " people in database");
		}

		mixin GenericMain!app;
		---

		Similar modules are available for PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, and SQLite databases,
		implementing the same basic interface.

			For small files, cgi.d will buffer the uploaded file in memory, and make it
			directly accessible to you through the content member. I find this very convenient
			and somewhat efficient, since it can avoid hitting the disk entirely. (I
			often want to inspect and modify the file anyway!)

			I find the file is very large, it is undesirable to eat that much memory just
			for a file buffer. In those cases, if you pass a large enough value for maxContentLength
			to the constructor so they are accepted, cgi.d will write the content to a temporary
			file that you can re-read later.

			You can override this behavior by subclassing Cgi and overriding the protected
			handlePostChunk method. Note that the object is not initialized when you
			write that method - the http headers are available, but the cgi.post method
			is not. You may parse the file as it streams in using this method.


			Anyway, if the file is small enough to be in memory, contentInMemory will be
			set to true, and the content is available in the content member.

			If not, contentInMemory will be set to false, and the content saved in a file,
			whose name will be available in the contentFilename member.


			Tip: if you know you are always dealing with small files, and want the convenience
			of ignoring this member, construct Cgi with a small maxContentLength. Then, if
			a large file comes in, it simply throws an exception (and HTTP error response)
			instead of trying to handle it.

			The default value of maxContentLength in the constructor is for small files.

	cgi.d now uses a hybrid of event i/o and threads at the top level.

	Top level thread is responsible for accepting sockets and selecting on them.

	It then indicates to a child that a request is pending, and any random worker
	thread that is free handles it. It goes into blocking mode and handles that
	http request to completion.

	At that point, it goes back into the waiting queue.


	This concept is only implemented on Linux. On all other systems, it still
	uses the worker threads and semaphores (which is perfectly fine for a lot of
	things! Just having a great number of keep-alive connections will break that.)


	So the algorithm is:

	select(accept, event, pending)
		if accept -> send socket to free thread, if any. if not, add socket to queue
		if event -> send the signaling thread a socket from the queue, if not, mark it free
			- event might block until it can be *written* to. it is a fifo sending socket fds!

	A worker only does one http request at a time, then signals its availability back to the boss.

	The socket the worker was just doing should be added to the one-off epoll read. If it is closed,
	great, we can get rid of it. Otherwise, it is considered `pending`. The *kernel* manages that; the
	actual FD will not be kept out here.

	So:
		queue = sockets we know are ready to read now, but no worker thread is available
		idle list = worker threads not doing anything else. they signal back and forth

	the workers all read off the event fd. This is the semaphore wait

	the boss waits on accept or other sockets read events (one off! and level triggered). If anything happens wrt ready read,
	it puts it in the queue and writes to the event fd.

	The child could put the socket back in the epoll thing itself.

	The child needs to be able to gracefully handle being given a socket that just closed with no work.

	Here's the way the RPC interface works:

	You define the interface that lists the functions you can call on the remote process.
	The interface may also have static methods for convenience. These forward to a singleton
	instance of an auto-generated class, which actually sends the args over the pipe.

	An impl class actually implements it. A receiving server deserializes down the pipe and
	calls methods on the class.

	I went with the interface to get some nice compiler checking and documentation stuff.

	I could have skipped the interface and just implemented it all from the server class definition
	itself, but then the usage may call the method instead of rpcing it; I just like having the user
	interface and the implementation separate so you aren't tempted to `new impl` to call the methods.


	I fiddled with newlines in the mixin string to ensure the assert line numbers matched up to the source code line number. Idk why dmd didn't do this automatically, but it was important to me.

	Realistically though the bodies would just be
		connection.call(this.mangleof, args...) sooooo.

	FIXME: overloads aren't supported

	A convenience object for talking to the [BasicDataServer] from a higher level.
	See: [Cgi.getSessionObject].

	You pass it a `Data` struct describing the data you want saved in the session.
	Then, this class will generate getter and setter properties that allow access
	to that data.

	Note that each load and store will be done as-accessed; it doesn't front-load
	mutable data nor does it batch updates out of fear of read-modify-write race
	conditions. (In fact, right now it does this for everything, but in the future,
	I might batch load `immutable` members of the Data struct.)

	At some point in the future, I might also let it do different backends, like
	a client-side cookie store too, but idk.

	Note that the plain-old-data members of your `Data` struct are wrapped by this
	interface via a static foreach to make property functions.

	See_Also: [MockSession]

			idleLifetime = How long, in seconds, the session
			should remain in memory when not being read from
			or written to. The default is one day.

			NOT IMPLEMENTED

			useExtendedLifetimeCookie = The session ID is always
			stored in a HTTP cookie, and by default, that cookie
			is discarded when the user closes their browser.

			But if you set this to true, it will use a non-perishable
			cookie for the given idleLifetime.

	Argument conversions: for the most part, it is to!Thing(string).

	But arrays and structs are a bit different. Arrays come from the cgi array. Thus
	they are passed

	arr=foo&arr=bar <-- notice the same name.

	Structs are first declared with an empty thing, then have their members set individually,
	with dot notation. The members are not required, just the initial declaration.

	struct Foo {
		int a;
		string b;
	}
	void test(Foo foo){}

	foo&foo.a=5&foo.b=str <-- the first foo declares the arg, the others set the members

	Arrays of structs use this declaration.

	void test(Foo[] foo) {}

	foo&foo.a=5&foo.b=bar&foo&foo.a=9

	You can use a hidden input field in HTML forms to achieve this. The value of the naked name
	declaration is ignored.

	Mind that order matters! The declaration MUST come first in the string.

	Arrays of struct members follow this rule recursively.

	struct Foo {
		int[] a;
	}

	foo&foo.a=1&foo.a=2&foo&foo.a=1


	Associative arrays are formatted with brackets, after a declaration, like structs:

	foo&foo[key]=value&foo[other_key]=value


	Note: for maximum compatibility with outside code, keep your types simple. Some libraries
	do not support the strict ordering requirements to work with these struct protocols.

	FIXME: also perhaps accept application/json to better work with outside trash.


	Return values are also auto-formatted according to user-requested type:
		for json, it loops over and converts.
		for html, basic types are strings. Arrays are <ol>. Structs are <dl>. Arrays of structs are tables!

	Usage of this function will add a dependency on [arsd.dom] and [arsd.jsvar] unless you have overriden

	FIXME: explain this better

	You can overload functions to a limited extent: you can provide a zero-arg and non-zero-arg function,
	and non-zero-arg functions can filter via UDAs for various http methods. Do not attempt other overloads,
	the runtime result of that is undefined.

	A method is assumed to allow any http method unless it lists some in UDAs, in which case it is limited to only those.
	(this might change, like maybe i will use pure as an indicator GET is ok. idk.)

						Even names I feel is better done inside the function, so I'm not
						going to support that here. But the HTTP verbs and zero vs some

						Moreover, I'm of the opinion that empty overload really only makes
						sense on GET for this case. On a POST, it is just a missing argument

						let the user define that, D only allows one empty arg thing anyway

	Serves a REST object, similar to a Ruby on Rails resource.

	You put data members in your class. cgi.d will automatically make something out of those.

	It will call your constructor with the ID from the URL. This may be null.
	It will then populate the data members from the request.
	It will then call a method, if present, telling what happened. You don't need to write these!
	It finally returns a reply.

	Your methods are passed a list of fields it actually set.

	The URL mapping - despite my general skepticism of the wisdom - matches up with what most REST
	APIs I have used seem to follow. (I REALLY want to put trailing slashes on it though. Works better
	with relative linking. But meh.)

	GET /items -> index. all values not set.
	GET /items/id -> get. only ID will be set, other params ignored.
	POST /items -> create. values set as given
	PUT /items/id -> replace. values set as given
		or POST /items/id with cgi.post["_method"] (thus urlencoded or multipart content-type) set to "PUT" to work around browser/html limitation
		a GET with cgi.get["_method"] (in the url) set to "PUT" will render a form.
	PATCH /items/id -> update. values set as given, list of changed fields passed
		or POST /items/id with cgi.post["_method"] == "PATCH"
	DELETE /items/id -> destroy. only ID guaranteed to be set
		or POST /items/id with cgi.post["_method"] == "DELETE"

	Following the stupid convention, there will never be a trailing slash here, and if it is there, it will
	redirect you away from it.

	API clients should set the `Accept` HTTP header to application/json or the cgi.get["_format"] = "json" var.

	I will also let you change the default, if you must.

	// One add-on is validation. You can issue a HTTP GET to a resource with _method = VALIDATE to check potential changes.

	You can define sub-resources on your object inside the object. These sub-resources are also REST objects
	that follow the same thing. They may be individual resources or collections themselves.

	Your class is expected to have at least the following methods:

	FIXME: i kinda wanna add a routes object to the initialize call

	create
		Create returns the new address on success, some code on failure.
	show
	index
	update
	remove

	You will want to be able to customize the HTTP, HTML, and JSON returns but generally shouldn't have to - the defaults
	should usually work. The returned JSON will include a field "href" on all returned objects along with "id". Or omething like that.

	Usage of this function will add a dependency on [arsd.dom] and [arsd.jsvar].

	NOT IMPLEMENTED


	Really, a collection is a resource with a bunch of subresources.

		GET /items
			index because it is GET on the top resource

		GET /items/foo
			item but different than items?

		class Items {

		}

	... but meh, a collection can be automated. not worth making it
	a separate thing, let's look at a real example. Users has many
	items and a virtual one, /users/current.

	the individual users have properties and two sub-resources:
	session, which is just one, and comments, a collection.

	class User : RestObject!() { // no parent
		int id;
		string name;

		// the default implementations of the urlId ones is to call load(that_id) then call the arg-less one.
		// but you can override them to do it differently.

		// any member which is of type RestObject can be linked automatically via href btw.

		void show() {}
		void show(string urlId) {} // automated! GET of this specific thing
		void create() {} // POST on a parent collection - this is called from a collection class after the members are updated
		void replace(string urlId) {} // this is the PUT; really, it just updates all fields.
		void update(string urlId, string[] fieldList) {} // PATCH, it updates some fields.
		void remove(string urlId) {} // DELETE

		void load(string urlId) {} // the default implementation of show() populates the id, then

		this() {}

		mixin Subresource!Session;
		mixin Subresource!Comment;
	}

	class Session : RestObject!() {
		// the parent object may not be fully constructed/loaded
		this(User parent) {}

	}

	class Comment : CollectionOf!Comment {
		this(User parent) {}
	}
