In Alternator's HTTP API, response headers can dominate bandwidth for small payloads. The Server, Date, and Content-Type headers were sent on every response but many clients never use them. This patch introduces three Alternator config options: - alternator_http_response_server_header, - alternator_http_response_disable_date_header, - alternator_http_response_disable_content_type_header, which allow customizing or suppressing the respective HTTP response headers. All three options support live update (no restart needed). The Server header is no longer sent by default; the Date and Content-Type defaults preserve the existing behavior. The Server and Date header suppression uses Seastar's set_server_header() and set_generate_date_header() APIs added in https://github.com/scylladb/seastar/pull/3217. This patch also fixes deprecation warnings from older Seastar HTTP APIs. Tests are in test/alternator/test_http_headers.py.

Key Guidelines for Contributors
- The user documentation is written in reStructuredText (RST) - a plaintext markup language similar to Markdown. If you're not familiar with RST, see ScyllaDB RST Examples.
- The developer documentation is written in Markdown. See Basic Markdown Syntax for reference.
- Follow the ScyllaDB Style Guide.
To prevent the build from failing:
-
If you add a new file, ensure it's added to an appropriate toctree, for example:
.. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 :hidden: Page X </folder1/article1> Page Y </folder1/article2> Your New Page </folder1/your-new-article> -
Make sure the link syntax is correct. See the guidelines on creating links
-
Make sure the section headings are correct. See the guidelines on creating headings Note that the markup must be at least as long as the text in the heading. For example:

Building User Documentation
Prerequisites
- Python
- poetry
- make
See the ScyllaDB Sphinx Theme prerequisites to check which versions of the above are currently required.
Mac OS X
You must have a working Homebrew in order to install the needed tools.
You also need the standard utility make.
Check if you have these two items with the following commands:
brew help
make -h
Linux Distributions
Building the user docs should work out of the box on most Linux distributions.
Windows
Use "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" for the same tools and capabilities as on Linux distributions.
Building the Docs
- Run
make previewin thedocs/directory to build the documentation. - Preview the built documentation locally at http://127.0.0.1:5500/.
Cleanup
You can clean up all the build products and auto-installed Python stuff with:
make pristine
