WebDyne::Request::Fake

NAME

WebDyne::Request::Fake - synthetic request/response object used for direct WebDyne rendering

SYNOPSIS

use WebDyne::Request::Fake;

my $r = WebDyne::Request::Fake->new(
    filename => 'page.psp',
    method   => 'GET',
);

DESCRIPTION

WebDyne::Request::Fake is the baseline WebDyne request adapter. It is used when rendering pages outside a real web server environment, for example through WebDyne::html, WebDyne::html_sr, wdrender, and related command-line tooling.

The module provides a normalized request/response API and also acts as the fallback implementation for methods not implemented by more specific request adapters.

METHODS

Notable methods implemented directly by this class include:

• new(%options)

  Construct a synthetic request object.

• filename()

  Get or derive the current source filename being requested.

• uri()

  Return a URI object for the current request.

• headers_in() / headers_out()

  Access request and response headers.

• status() / status_line()

  Access or update response status information.

• print() / write()

  Append response body output.

• finalize()

  Finalize the synthetic response for downstream consumers.

• redirect($url)

  Set redirect-style response headers and status.

• dir_config($name)

  Look up directory-style configuration, including values sourced from WEBDYNE_DIR_CONFIG and optional local .webdyne.conf.pl loading.

• err_html()

  Generate an error response using WebDyne’s HTML error facilities.

NOTES

WebDyne::Request::Fake intentionally carries both request and response responsibilities. More specialized adapters such as WebDyne::Request::Apache, WebDyne::Request::PSGI, and WebDyne::Request::PAGI inherit from it for missing behavior.
