DESCRIPTION
Mojo::Message::Request is a container for HTTP requests, based on RFC 7230, RFC 7231, RFC 7235 and RFC 2817.
EVENTS
Mojo::Message::Request inherits all events from Mojo::Message.
ATTRIBUTES
Mojo::Message::Request inherits all attributes from Mojo::Message and implements the following new ones.
env
my $env = $req->env;
$req = $req->env({PATH_INFO => '/'});
Direct access to the CGI
or PSGI
environment hash if available.
# Check CGI version
my $version = $req->env->{GATEWAY_INTERFACE};
# Check PSGI version
my $version = $req->env->{'psgi.version'};
method
my $method = $req->method;
$req = $req->method('POST');
HTTP request method, defaults to GET
.
proxy
my $url = $req->proxy;
$req = $req->proxy(Mojo::URL->new('http://127.0.0.1:3000'));
Proxy URL for request.
reverse_proxy
my $bool = $req->reverse_proxy;
$req = $req->reverse_proxy($bool);
Request has been performed through a reverse proxy.
request_id
my $id = $req->request_id;
$req = $req->request_id('aee7d5d8');
Request ID, defaults to a reasonably unique value.
url
my $url = $req->url;
$req = $req->url(Mojo::URL->new);
HTTP request URL, defaults to a Mojo::URL object.
# Get request information
my $info = $req->url->to_abs->userinfo;
my $host = $req->url->to_abs->host;
my $path = $req->url->to_abs->path;
via_proxy
my $bool = $req->via_proxy;
$req = $req->via_proxy($bool);
Request can be performed through a proxy server.
METHODS
Mojo::Message::Request inherits all methods from Mojo::Message and implements the following new ones.
clone
my $clone = $req->clone;
Return a new Mojo::Message::Request object cloned from this request if possible, otherwise return undef
.
cookies
my $cookies = $req->cookies;
$req = $req->cookies(Mojo::Cookie::Request->new);
$req = $req->cookies({name => 'foo', value => 'bar'});
Access request cookies, usually Mojo::Cookie::Request objects.
# Names of all cookies
say $_->name for @{$req->cookies};
every_param
my $values = $req->every_param('foo');
Similar to "param", but returns all values sharing the same name as an array reference.
# Get first value
say $req->every_param('foo')->[0];
extract_start_line
my $bool = $req->extract_start_line(\$str);
Extract request-line from string.
fix_headers
$req = $req->fix_headers;
Make sure request has all required headers.
get_start_line_chunk
my $bytes = $req->get_start_line_chunk($offset);
Get a chunk of request-line data starting from a specific position. Note that this method finalizes the request.
is_handshake
my $bool = $req->is_handshake;
Check Upgrade
header for websocket
value.
is_secure
my $bool = $req->is_secure;
Check if connection is secure.
is_xhr
my $bool = $req->is_xhr;
Check X-Requested-With
header for XMLHttpRequest
value.
param
my $value = $req->param('foo');
Access GET
and POST
parameters extracted from the query string and application/x-www-form-urlencoded
or multipart/form-data
message body. If there are multiple values sharing the same name, and you want to access more than just the last one, you can use "every_param". Note that this method caches all data, so it should not be called before the entire request body has been received. Parts of the request body need to be loaded into memory to parse POST
parameters, so you have to make sure it is not excessively large. There's a 16MiB limit for requests by default.
params
my $params = $req->params;
All GET
and POST
parameters extracted from the query string and application/x-www-form-urlencoded
or multipart/form-data
message body, usually a Mojo::Parameters object. Note that this method caches all data, so it should not be called before the entire request body has been received. Parts of the request body need to be loaded into memory to parse POST
parameters, so you have to make sure it is not excessively large. There's a 16MiB limit for requests by default.
# Get parameter names and values
my $hash = $req->params->to_hash;
parse
$req = $req->parse('GET /foo/bar HTTP/1.1');
$req = $req->parse({PATH_INFO => '/'});
Parse HTTP request chunks or environment hash.
query_params
my $params = $req->query_params;
All GET
parameters, usually a Mojo::Parameters object.
# Turn GET parameters to hash and extract value
say $req->query_params->to_hash->{foo};
start_line_size
my $size = $req->start_line_size;
Size of the request-line in bytes. Note that this method finalizes the request.
