Net::HTTPServer::Request - HTTP request SYNOPSIS
Net::HTTPServer::Request handles the parsing of a request. DESCRIPTION
Net::HTTPServer::Request takes a full request, parses it, and then provides a nice OOP interface to pulling out the information you want from a request. METHODS
Cookie([cookie]) Returns a hash reference of cookie/value pairs. If you specify a cookie, then it returns the value for that cookie, or undef if it does not exist. Env([var]) Returns a hash reference of variable/value pairs. If you specify a variable, then it returns the value for that variable, or undef if it does not exist. Header([header]) Returns a hash reference of header/value pairs. If you specify a header, then it returns the value for that header, or undef if it does not exist. Method() Returns the method of the request (GET,POST,etc...) Path() Returns the path portion of the URL. Does not include any query strings. Procotol() Returns the name and revision that the request came in with. Query() Returns the query portion of the URL (if any). You can combine the Path and the Query with a ? to get the real URL that the client requested. Request() Returns the entire request as a string. Response() Returns a Net::HTTPServer::Response object with various bits prefilled in. If you have created session via the Session() method, then the session will already be registered with the response. Session() Create a new Net::HTTPServer::Session object. If the cookie value is set, then the previous state values are loaded, otherwise a new session is started. URL() Returns the URL of the request. AUTHOR

HTTP::Request::Params - Retrieve GET/POST Parameters from HTTP Requests SYNOPSIS
use HTTP::Request::Params; my $http_request = read_request(); my $parse_params = HTTP::Request::Params->new({ req => $http_request, }); my $params = $parse_params->params; DESCRIPTION
This software does all the dirty work of parsing HTTP Requests to find incoming query parameters. new my $parser = HTTP::Request::Params->new({ req => $http_request, }); "req" - This required argument is either an "HTTP::Request" object or a string containing an entier HTTP Request. Incoming query parameters come from two places. The first place is the "query" portion of the URL. Second is the content portion of an HTTP request as is the case when parsing a POST request, for example. params my $params = $parser->params; Returns a hash reference containing all the parameters. The keys in this hash are the names of the parameters. Values are the values associated with those parameters in the incoming query. For parameters with multiple values, the value in this hash will be a list reference. This is the same behaviour as the "CGI" module's "Vars()" function. req my $req_object = $parser->req; Returns the "HTTP::Request" object. mime my $mime_object = $parser->mime; Returns the "Email::MIME" object. Now, you may be wondering why we're dealing with an "Email::MIME" object. The answer is simple. It's an amazing parser for MIME compliant messages, and RFC 822 compliant messages. When parsing incoming POST data, especially file uploads, "Email::MIME" is the perfect fit. It's fast and light. SEE ALSO
