abstract class web::WebReq

sys::Obj
  web::WebReq

Source

WebReq encapsulates a web request.

See pod doc.

absUri

virtual Uri absUri()

Source

The absolute request URI including the full authority and the query string. Also see uri, modBase, and modRel. This method is equivalent to:

"http://" + headers["Host"] + uri

Examples:

http://www.foo.com/a/b/c
http://www.foo.com/a?q=bar

cookies

virtual Str:Str cookies()

Source

Map of cookie values keyed by cookie name. The cookies map is readonly and case insensitive.

form

virtual [Str:Str]? form()

Source

Get the key/value pairs of the form data. If the request content type is "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", then the first time this method is called the request content is read and parsed using Uri.decodeQuery. If the content type is not "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" this method returns null.

headers

abstract Str:Str headers()

Source

Map of HTTP request headers. The headers map is readonly and case insensitive (see Map.caseInsensitive).

Examples:

req.headers["Accept-Language"]

in

abstract InStream in()

Source

Get the stream to read request body. See WebUtil.makeContentInStream to check under which conditions request content is available. If request content is not available, then throw an exception.

If the client specified the "Expect: 100-continue" header, then the first access of the request input stream will automatically send the client a 100 Continue response.

isGet

abstract Bool isGet()

Source

Return if the method is GET

isPost

abstract Bool isPost()

Source

Return if the method is POST

locales

virtual Locale[] locales()

Source

Get the accepted locales for this request based on the "Accept-Language" HTTP header. List is sorted by preference, where locales.first is best, and locales.last is worst. This list is guarenteed to contain Locale("en").

method

abstract Str method()

Source

The HTTP request method in uppercase. Example: GET, POST, PUT.

mod

abstract WebMod mod

Source

Get the WebMod which is currently responsible for processing this request.

modBase

Uri modBase := `/`

Source

Base URI of the current WebMod. This Uri always ends in a slash. This is the URI used to route to the WebMod itself. The remainder of uri is stored in modRel so that the following always holds true (with exception of a trailing slash):

modBase + modRel == uri

For example if the current WebMod is mounted as /mod then:

uri          modBase   modRel
----------   -------   -------
`/mod`       `/mod/`   ``
`/mod/`      `/mod/`   ``
`/mod?q`     `/mod/`   `?q`
`/mod/a`     `/mod/`   `a`
`/mod/a/b`   `/mod/`   `a/b`

modRel

Uri modRel()

Source

WebMod relative part of the URI - see modBase.

parseMultiPartForm

Void parseMultiPartForm(|Str,InStream,Str:Str| cb)

Source

Given a web request:

1. check that the content-type is form-data
2. get the boundary string
3. invoke callback for each part (see WebUtil.parseMultiPart)

For each part in the stream call the given callback function with the part's form name, headers, and an input stream used to read the part's body.

remoteAddr

abstract IpAddr remoteAddr()

Source

Get the IP host address of the client socket making this request.

remotePort

abstract Int remotePort()

Source

Get the IP port of the client socket making this request.

session

abstract WebSession session()

Source

Get the session associated with this browser "connection". The session must be accessed the first time before the response is committed.

socketOptions

abstract SocketOptions socketOptions()

Source

Access to socket options for this request.

stash

virtual Str:Obj? stash()

Source

Stash allows you to stash objects on the WebReq object in order to pass data b/w Weblets while processing this request.

uri

abstract Uri uri()

Source

The request URI including the query string relative to this authority. Also see absUri, modBase, and modRel.

Examples:

/a/b/c
/a?q=bar

version

abstract Version version()

Source

The HTTP version of the request.
