Support for application/x-base64-frpc in python handlers #77

komackaj commented 5 years ago

I've just found out that at least Flask handler in python/fastrpc/handler/flask.py - probably the other two are affected too - doesn't support base64-encoded data (Content-Type :application/x-base64-frpc).

IMHO it should

detect encoded data from header
automatically decode it
encode output to base64
reply with corect ContentType header

encode output to base64

reply with corect ContentType header

Ideally, the output encoding shall be driven by the Accept request header (as opposed to Content-Type. A client implementation can, in theory, send base64 but accept binary.
