6 APR::Request - wrapper for libapreq2's module/handle API.
7
9 use APR::Request;
10
11 $req = APR::Request::Custom->handle($pool,
12 "foo=arg1&bar=arg2",
13 "apache=quux",
14 $parser, 1e6, $bb);
15 $param = $req->param("foo");
16 $cookie = $req->jar("apache");
17
19 The "APR::Request" module provides the base methods for interfacing
20 with libapreq2's module API. It also provides a few utility functions
21 and constants.
22
23 This manpage documents version 2.13 of the APR::Request,
24 APR::Request::Custom, APR::Request::Cookie::Table, and
25 APR::Request::Param::Table packages.
26
28 APR::Request::Custom - derived from APR::Request.
29
30 handle
31 APR::Request::Custom->handle($pool,
32 $query_string,
33 $cookie_header,
34 $parser,
35 $read_limit,
36 $brigade)
37
38 Creates a new APR::Request::Custom object. The $query_string and
39 $cookie_headers are immediately parsed into the "args" and "jar"
40 tables. The $parser is an APR::Request::Parser object which is invoked
41 when fetching "body" entries from the $brigade. The $read_limit
42 represents the maximum number of bytes this handle may feed into the
43 parser.
44
46 APR::Request
47
48 pool
49 $req->pool()
50
51 Returns the APR::Pool object associated to this handle.
52
53 bucket_alloc
54 $req->bucket_alloc()
55
56 Returns the APR::BucketAlloc object associated to this handle.
57
58 jar_status
59 $req->jar_status()
60
61 Returns the final status code of the handle's cookie header parser.
62
63 args_status
64 $req->args_status()
65
66 Returns the final status code of the handle's query-string parser.
67
68 body_status
69 $req->body_status()
70
71 Returns the final status code of the handle's body parser.
72
73 param_status
74 $req->param_status()
75
76 Returns "($req->args_status, $req->body_status)" in list context;
77 otherwise returns "$req->args_status || $req->body_status".
78
79 parse
80 $req->parse()
81
82 Parses the jar, args, and body tables. Returns "$req->jar_status,
83 $req->args_status, $req->body_status".
84
85 @status = $req->parse;
86 ok @status == 3;
87 ok $status[0] == $req->jar_status;
88 ok $status[1] == $req->args_status;
89 ok $status[2] == $req->body_status;
90
91 jar
92 $req->jar()
93 $req->jar($key)
94
95 With no arguments, this method returns a tied
96 APR::Request::Cookie::Table object (or undef if the "Cookie" header is
97 absent) in scalar context, or the names (in order, with repetitions) of
98 all the parsed cookies.
99
100 With the $key argument, in scalar context this method fetches the first
101 matching cookie. In list context it returns all matching cookies. The
102 returned cookies are the values as they appeared in the incoming Cookie
103 header.
104
105 jar() will throw an APR::Request::Error object whenever jar_status() is
106 non-zero and the return value is potentially invalid (eg "scalar
107 $req->jar($key)" will not die if the desired cookie was successfully
108 parsed).
109
110 $jar = $req->jar;
111 @cookie_names = $req->jar;
112 ok $jar->isa("APR::Request::Cookie::Table");
113 ok shift @cookie_names eq $_ for keys %$jar;
114
115 $cookie = $req->jar("apache");

117
118 args
119 $req->args()
120 $req->args($key)
121
122 With no arguments, this method returns a tied
123 APR::Request::Param::Table object (or undef if the query string is
124 absent) in scalar context, or the names (in order, with repetitions) of
125 all the parsed query-string arguments.
126
127 With the $key argument, in scalar context this method fetches the first
128 matching query-string arg. In list context it returns all matching
129 args.
130
131 args() will throw an APR::Request::Error object whenever args_status()
132 is non-zero and the return value is potentially invalid (eg "scalar
133 $req->args($key)" will not die if the desired query argument was
134 successfully parsed).
135
136 $args = $req->args;
137 @arg_names = $req->args;
138 ok $args->isa("APR::Request::Param::Table");
139 ok shift @arg_names eq $_ for keys %$args;

143
144 body
145 $req->body()
146 $req->body($key)
147
148 With no arguments, this method returns a tied
149 APR::Request::Param::Table object (or undef if the request body is
150 absent) in scalar context, or the names (in order, with repetitions) of
151 all the parsed cookies.
152
153 With the $key argument, in scalar context this method fetches the first
154 matching body param. In list context it returns all matching body
155 params.
156
157 body() will throw an APR::Request::Error object whenever body_status()
158 is non-zero and the return value is potentially invalid (eg "scalar
159 $req->body($key)" will not die if the desired body param was
160 successfully parsed).
161
162 $body = $req->body;
163 @body_names = $req->body;
164 ok $body->isa("APR::Request::Param::Table");
165 ok shift @body_names eq $_ for keys %$body;
166
167 $alpha = $req->body("alpha");
168 @beta = $req->body("beta");
169
170 param
171 $req->param()
172 $req->param($key)
173
174 With no arguments, this method returns a tied
175 APR::Request::Param::Table object (or undef, if the query string and
176 request body are absent) in scalar context, or the names (in order,
177 with repetitions) of all the incoming (args + body) params.
178
179 With the $key argument, in scalar context this method fetches the first
180 matching param. In list context it returns all matching params.
181
182 param() will throw an APR::Request::Error object whenever
183 param_status() is non-zero and the return value is potentially invalid
184 (eg "scalar $req->param($key)" will not die if the desired param was
185 successfully parsed).
186
187 $param = $req->param;
188 @param_names = $req->param;
189 ok $param->isa("APR::Request::Param::Table");
190 ok shift @param_names eq $_ for keys %$param;
191

193 @foo = $req->param("foo");
194
195 upload
196 $req->upload()
197 $req->upload($key)
198
199 With no arguments, this method returns a tied
200 APR::Request::Param::Table object (or undef if the request body is
201 absent) in scalar context (whose entries are APR::Request::Param
202 objects), or the names (in order, with repetitions) of all the incoming
203 uploads.
204
205 With the $key argument, in scalar context this method fetches the first
206 matching upload. In list context it returns all matching uploads. The
207 return values are APR::Request::Param objects.
208
209 upload() will throw an APR::Request::Error object whenever
210 body_status() is non-zero.
211
212 $uploads = $req->upload;
213 @upload_names = $req->upload;
214 ok $uploads->isa("APR::Request::Param::Table");

222
223 read_limit
224 $req->read_limit()
225 $req->read_limit($set)
226
227 Get/set the read limit, which controls the total amount of bytes that
228 can be fed to the current parser.
229
230 brigade_limit
231 $req->brigade_limit()
232 $req->brigade_limit($set)
233
234 Get/set the brigade_limit for the current parser. This limit
235 determines how many bytes of a file upload that the parser may spool
236 into main memory. Uploads exceeding this limit are written directly to
237 disk.
238
239 temp_dir
240 $req->temp_dir()
241 $req->temp_dir($set)
242
243 Get/set the spool directory for uploads which exceed the configured
244 brigade_limit.
245
246 disable_uploads
247 $req->disable_uploads()
248
249 Engage the disable_uploads hook for this request.
250
251 upload_hook
252 $req->upload_hook($callback)
253
254 Add an upload hook callback for this request. The arguments to the
255 $callback sub are ($upload, $new_data).
256
257 import
258 Exports a list of subs into the caller's package.
259
261 APR::Request
262
263 encode
264 encode($string)
265
266 Exportable sub which returns the url-encoded form of $string.
267
268 decode
269 decode($string)
270
271 Exportable sub which returns the url-decoded form of $string.
272
274 APR::Request
275
276 If the instances of your subclass are hash references then you can
277 actually inherit from APR::Request as long as the APR::Request object
278 is stored in an attribute called "r" or "_r". (The APR::Request class
279 effectively does the delegation for you automagically, as long as it
280 knows where to find the APR::Request object to delegate to.) For
281 example:
282
283 package MySubClass;
284 use APR::Request::Custom;
285 our @ISA = qw(APR::Request);
286 sub new {
287 my($class, @args) = @_;
288 return bless { r => APR::Request::Custom->handle(@args) }, $class;
289 }
290
292 APR::Request::Cookie::Table - read-only version of APR::Table.
293
294 Tables in this class normally arise from calls to
295 "APR::Request::jar()".
296
297 cookie_class
298 $table->cookie_class()
299 $table->cookie_class($set)
300
301 Get/set the class each table element is blessed into during a get or
302 FETCH call. If defined, the class must be derived from
303 APR::Request::Cookie. When called with $set, it returns the $table.
304 Otherwise it returns the name of the current class, or undef if no
305 cookie class is defined.
306
307 get
308 $table->get($key)
309
310 Same as FETCH.
311
312 FETCH
313 $table->FETCH($key)
314
315 In scalar context, this returns the first value matching $key (note:
316 see NEXTKEY for additional notes). The match is always case-
317 insensitive. In list context, this returns all matching values. Note:
318 the type of the return values depends on the table's current
319 cookie_class.
320
321 EXISTS
322 Synonym for "defined"; these tables are not allowed to contain
323 undefined values. Since these are constant tables, they don't
324 autovivify either.
325
326 FIRSTKEY
327 $table->FIRSTKEY()
328
329 Returns the first key in the table.
330
331 NEXTKEY
332 $table->NEXTKEY()
333
334 Returns the next key in the table. For perl 5.8+, if the key is
335 multivalued, a subsequent FETCH on this key will return the
336 corresponding value, until either NEXTKEY or FIRSTKEY is invoked again.
337 For perl 5.6, FETCH always returns the first value.
338
339 do
340 $table->do($callback, @keys)
341
342 Same as APR::Table::do; iterates over the table calling
343 $callback->($key, $value) for each matching @keys. If @keys is empty,
344 this iterates over the entire table.
345
346 Note: The type of $value inserted into the callback depends on the
347 table's current cookie_class.
348
350 APR::Request::Param::Table
351
352 param_class
353 $table->param_class()
354 $table->param_class($set)
355
356 Get/set the class each table element is blessed into during a "get" or
357 "FETCH" call. If defined, the class must be derived from
358 APR::Request::Param. When called with $set, it returns the $table.
359 Otherwise it returns the name of the current class, or undef if no
360 param class is defined.
361
362 get
363 $table->get($key)
364
365 Same as FETCH.
366
367 FETCH
368 $table->FETCH($key)
369
370 In scalar context, this returns the first value matching $key (see
371 NEXTKEY for additional notes on this). The match is always case-
372 insensitive. In list context, this returns all matching values. Note:
373 the type of the return values depends on the table's current
374 param_class.
375
376 EXISTS
377 Synonym for "defined"; these tables are not allowed to contain
378 undefined values. Since these are constant tables, they don't
379 autovivify either.
380
381 NEXTKEY
382 $table->NEXTKEY()
383
384 Returns the next key in the table. For perl 5.8+, if the key is
385 multivalued, a subsequent FETCH on this key will return the
386 corresponding value, until either NEXTKEY or FIRSTKEY is invoked again.
387 For perl 5.6, FETCH always returns the first value.
388
389 FIRSTKEY
390 $table->FIRSTKEY()
391
392 Returns the first key in the table.
393
394 do
395 $table->do($callback, @keys)
396
397 Same as APR::Table::do; iterates over the table calling
398 $callback->($key, $value) for each matching @keys. If @keys is empty,
399 this iterates over the entire table.
400
401 Note: The type of $value inserted into the callback depends on the
402 table's current value_class.
