=head1 METHODS
-=head2 $req->action
-
-[DEPRECATED] Returns the name of the requested action.
-
-
-Use C<< $c->action >> instead (which returns a
-L<Catalyst::Action|Catalyst::Action> object).
-
=head2 $req->address
Returns the IP address of the client.
For example, if your action was
- package MyApp::C::Foo;
+ package MyApp::Controller::Foo;
sub moose : Local {
...
and the URI for the request was C<http://.../foo/moose/bah>, the string C<bah>
would be the first and only argument.
+Arguments get automatically URI-unescaped for you.
+
=head2 $req->args
-Shortcut for arguments.
+Shortcut for L</arguments>.
=head2 $req->base
-Contains the URI base. This will always have a trailing slash.
+Contains the URI base. This will always have a trailing slash. Note that the
+URI scheme (e.g., http vs. https) must be determined through heuristics;
+depending on your server configuration, it may be incorrect. See $req->secure
+for more info.
If your application was queried with the URI
C<http://localhost:3000/some/path> then C<base> is C<http://localhost:3000/>.
=head2 $req->body
-Returns the message body of the request, unless Content-Type is
-C<application/x-www-form-urlencoded> or C<multipart/form-data>.
+Returns the message body of the request, as returned by L<HTTP::Body>: a string,
+unless Content-Type is C<application/x-www-form-urlencoded>, C<text/xml>, or
+C<multipart/form-data>, in which case a L<File::Temp> object is returned.
+
+=head2 $req->body_data
+
+Returns a Perl representation of POST/PUT body data that is not classic HTML
+form data, such as JSON, XML, etc. By default, Catalyst will parse incoming
+data of the type 'application/json' and return access to that data via this
+method. You may define addition data_handlers via a global configuration
+setting. See L<Catalyst\DATA HANDLERS> for more information.
+
+If the POST is malformed in some way (such as undefined or not content that
+matches the content-type) we raise a L<Catalyst::Exception> with the error
+text as the message.
+
+If the POSTed content type does not match an available data handler, this
+will also raise an exception.
=head2 $req->body_parameters
These are the parameters from the POST part of the request, if any.
+B<NOTE> If your POST is multipart, but contains non file upload parts (such
+as an line part with an alternative encoding or content type) we do our best to
+try and figure out how the value should be presented. If there's a specified character
+set we will use that to decode rather than the default encoding set by the application.
+However if there are complex headers and we cannot determine
+the correct way to extra a meaningful value from the upload, in this case any
+part like this will be represented as an instance of L<Catalyst::Request::PartData>.
+
+Patches and review of this part of the code welcomed.
+
=head2 $req->body_params
Shortcut for body_parameters.

+The cookies in the hash are indexed by name, and the values are L<CGI::Simple::Cookie>
objects.
=head2 $req->header
=head2 $req->hostname
-Returns the hostname of the client.
+Returns the hostname of the client. Use C<< $req->uri->host >> to get the hostname of the server.
=head2 $req->input
present.
http://localhost/path?some+keywords
-

+Returns GET and POST parameters with a CGI.pm-compatible param method. This
is an alternative method for accessing parameters in $c->req->parameters.
$value = $c->request->param( 'foo' );
(creating it if it didn't exist before), and C<quxx> as another value for
C<gorch>.
+B<NOTE> this is considered a legacy interface and care should be taken when
+using it. C<< scalar $c->req->param( 'foo' ) >> will return only the first
+C<foo> param even if multiple are present; C<< $c->req->param( 'foo' ) >> will
+return a list of as many are present, which can have unexpected consequences
+when writing code of the form:
+
+ $foo->bar(
+ a => 'b',
+ baz => $c->req->param( 'baz' ),
+ );
+
+If multiple C<baz> parameters are provided this code might corrupt data or
+cause a hash initialization error. For a more straightforward interface see
+C<< $c->req->parameters >>.
+
+B<NOTE> Interfaces like this, which are based on L<CGI> and the C<param> method
+are known to cause demonstrated exploits. It is highly recommended that you
+avoid using this method, and migrate existing code away from it. Here's a
+whitepaper of the exploit:
+
+L<http://blog.gerv.net/2014/10/new-class-of-vulnerability-in-perl-web-applications/>
+
+B<NOTE> Further discussion on IRC indicate that the L<Catalyst> core team from 'back then'
+were well aware of this hack and this is the main reason we added the new approach to
+getting parameters in the first place.
+
+Basically this is an exploit that takes advantage of how L<\param> will do one thing
+in scalar context and another thing in list context. This is combined with how Perl
+chooses to deal with duplicate keys in a hash definition by overwriting the value of
+existing keys with a new value if the same key shows up again. Generally you will be
+vulnerable to this exploit if you are using this method in a direct assignment in a
+hash, such as with a L<DBIx::Class> create statement. For example, if you have
+parameters like:
+
+ user?user=123&foo=a&foo=user&foo=456
+
+You could end up with extra parameters injected into your method calls:
+
+ $c->model('User')->create({
+ user => $c->req->param('user'),
+ foo => $c->req->param('foo'),
+ });
+
+Which would look like:
+
+ $c->model('User')->create({
+ user => 123,
+ foo => qw(a user 456),
+ });
+
+(or to be absolutely clear if you are not seeing it):
+
+ $c->model('User')->create({
+ user => 456,
+ foo => 'a',
+ });
+
+Possible remediations include scrubbing your parameters with a form validator like
+L<HTML::FormHandler> or being careful to force scalar context using the scalar
+keyword:
+
+ $c->model('User')->create({
+ user => scalar($c->req->param('user')),
+ foo => scalar($c->req->param('foo')),
+ });
+
+Upcoming versions of L<Catalyst> will disable this interface by default and require
+you to positively enable it should you require it for backwards compatibility reasons.

+Returns true or false, indicating whether the connection is secure
+(https). The reliability of $req->secure may depend on your server
+configuration; Catalyst relies on PSGI to determine whether or not a
+request is secure (Catalyst looks at psgi.url_scheme), and different
+PSGI servers may make this determination in different ways (as by
+directly passing along information from the server, interpreting any of
+several HTTP headers, or using heuristics of their own).

=head2 $req->upload
A convenient method to access $req->uploads.
=head2 $req->uploads
Returns a reference to a hash containing uploads. Values can be either a
-L<Catalyst::Request::Upload> object, or an arrayref of
+L<Catalyst::Request::Upload> object, or an arrayref of
L<Catalyst::Request::Upload> objects.

+Returns a L<URI> object for the current request. Stringifies to the URI text.

+=head2 $req->mangle_params( { key => 'value' }, $appendmode);
+
+Returns a hashref of parameters stemming from the current request's params,
+plus the ones supplied. Keys for which no current param exists will be
+added, keys with undefined values will be removed and keys with existing
+params will be replaced. Note that you can supply a true value as the final
+argument to change behavior with regards to existing parameters, appending
+values rather than replacing them.
+
+A quick example:
+
+ # URI query params foo=1
+ my $hashref = $req->mangle_params({ foo => 2 });
+ # Result is query params of foo=2
+
+versus append mode:
+
+ # URI query params foo=1
+ my $hashref = $req->mangle_params({ foo => 2 }, 1);
+ # Result is query params of foo=1&foo=2
+
+This is the code behind C<uri_with>.

+=head1 SETUP METHODS
+
+You should never need to call these yourself in application code,

+
+=head2 $self->prepare_headers()

+
+=head2 $self->prepare_body()
+
+Sets up the body using L<HTTP::Body>
+
+=head2 $self->prepare_body_chunk()
+
+Add a chunk to the request body.
+
+=head2 $self->prepare_body_parameters()
+
+Sets up parameters from body.
+
+=head2 $self->prepare_cookies()
+
+Parse cookies from header. Sets up a L<CGI::Simple::Cookie> object.
+
+=head2 $self->prepare_connection()
+
+Sets up various fields in the request like the local and remote addresses,
+request method, hostname requested etc.
+
+=head2 $self->prepare_parameters()
+
+Ensures that the body has been parsed, then builds the parameters, which are
+combined from those in the request and those in the body.
+
+If parameters have already been set will clear the parameters and build them again.
+
+=head2 $self->env
+
+Access to the raw PSGI env.
