http::request::params

HTTP::Request::Params(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				HTTP::Request::Params(3pm)

NAME

       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.
