Robert Francis 99b89aea10 Symlink implementation.

Add a symbolic link ("symlink") object support to Swift. This
object will reference another object. GET and HEAD
requests for a symlink object will operate on the referenced object.
DELETE and PUT requests for a symlink object will operate on the
symlink object, not the referenced object, and will delete or
overwrite it, respectively.
POST requests are *not* forwarded to the referenced object and should
be sent directly. POST requests sent to a symlink object will
result in a 307 Error.

Historical information on symlink design can be found here:

Discoverability

Swift will by default provide clients with an interface providing details about the installation. Unless disabled (i.e expose_info=false in proxy-server-config), a GET request to /info will return configuration data in JSON format. An example response:

{"swift": {"version": "1.11.0"}, "staticweb": {}, "tempurl": {}}

This would signify to the client that swift version 1.11.0 is running and that staticweb and tempurl are available in this installation.

There may be administrator-only information available via /info. To retrieve it, one must use an HMAC-signed request, similar to TempURL. The signature may be produced like so:

swift tempurl GET 3600 /info secret 2>/dev/null | sed s/temp_url/swiftinfo/g
