HTTP::Request(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation HTTP::Request(3)
NAME
HTTP::Request - HTTP style request message
SYNOPSIS
require HTTP::Request;
$request = HTTP::Request->new(GET => 'http://www.example.com/');
and usually used like this:
$ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$response = $ua->request($request);
DESCRIPTION
"HTTP::Request" is a class encapsulating HTTP style requests, consisting of a request line, some headers, and a content body. Note that the
LWP library uses HTTP style requests even for non-HTTP protocols. Instances of this class are usually passed to the request() method of an
"LWP::UserAgent" object.
"HTTP::Request" is a subclass of "HTTP::Message" and therefore inherits its methods. The following additional methods are available:
$r = HTTP::Request->new( $method, $uri )
$r = HTTP::Request->new( $method, $uri, $header )
$r = HTTP::Request->new( $method, $uri, $header, $content )
Constructs a new "HTTP::Request" object describing a request on the object $uri using method $method. The $method argument must be a
string. The $uri argument can be either a string, or a reference to a "URI" object. The optional $header argument should be a
reference to an "HTTP::Headers" object or a plain array reference of key/value pairs. The optional $content argument should be a
string of bytes.
$r = HTTP::Request->parse( $str )
This constructs a new request object by parsing the given string.
$r->method
$r->method( $val )
This is used to get/set the method attribute. The method should be a short string like "GET", "HEAD", "PUT" or "POST".
$r->uri
$r->uri( $val )
This is used to get/set the uri attribute. The $val can be a reference to a URI object or a plain string. If a string is given, then
it should be parseable as an absolute URI.
$r->header( $field )
$r->header( $field => $value )
This is used to get/set header values and it is inherited from "HTTP::Headers" via "HTTP::Message". See HTTP::Headers for details and
other similar methods that can be used to access the headers.
$r->accept_decodable
This will set the "Accept-Encoding" header to the list of encodings that decoded_content() can decode.
$r->content
$r->content( $bytes )
This is used to get/set the content and it is inherited from the "HTTP::Message" base class. See HTTP::Message for details and other
methods that can be used to access the content.
Note that the content should be a string of bytes. Strings in perl can contain characters outside the range of a byte. The "Encode"
module can be used to turn such strings into a string of bytes.
$r->as_string
$r->as_string( $eol )
Method returning a textual representation of the request.
