DESCRIPTION

This module offers processing and the function that relates to the HTTP request.

CONFIGURATION

max_snip_deep

Depth of directory that can be requested.

# If it is 'max_snip_deep = 3', the following request becomes Forbidden.

http://foo.tld/baa/zuu/hoge/bad_content

request

Option to set or to pass to main body for request.

  • DISABLE_UPLOADS

  • TEMP_DIR

    Work folder for file upload chiefly

  • POST_MAX

    Maximum of standard input accepted when request method is POST.

METHODS

r

The object that actually does the request processing is returned.

For instance, if it is Apache::Request, and usual CGI if it is operating by mod_perl, the object of CGI is restored.

$request-E<gt>r->param;

* The method that can be used depends on the module of the object because it is a direct call.

path

The request passing is returned.

* There is a thing different from 'PATH_INFO' of the environment variable because returned information is processed to process it with Egg.

new

Constructor. When the project is usually started, this is called. It is not necessary to call it specifying it.

snip ( [PARTS_NUMBER] )

The ARRAY reference for which $request->path is resolved by '/' delimitation is returned.

* The depth of passing that can be requested by 'max_snip_deep' of configuration can be setup. Default is undefined.

parameters

The request query is returned by the HASH reference.

  • Alias: params

while (my($key, $value)= each %{$request->params}) {
  print "$key = $value \n";
}

param ( [KEY], [VALUE] )

When the argument is omitted, the key list of the request query is returned with ARRAY.

When KEY is specified, the value of the corresponding request query is returned.

When both KEY and VALUE are given, the value is set.

my $value= $request->param('param_name');

$request->param( in_param => 'in_value' );

Cookie corresponding to KEY is returned.

Because it is an object that is returned that CGI::Cookie returns, it is necessary to use the value method to refer to the value in addition. see CGI::Cookie,

my $cookie= $request->cookie('get_param');

my $value = $cookie->value;

cookies

Fetch of "CGI::Cookie " is returned. * It is HASH reference that returns.

my $cookies = $request->cookies;

while (my($key, $cookie)= each %$cookies) {
	print "$key = ". $cookie->value ."\n";
}

Caene of the value method of Cookie corresponding to KEY is returned. $request->cookie([KEY])->value is done in a word at a time.

my $value= $request->cookie_value('cookie_name');
