=head1 NAME

Catalyst::Response - stores output responding to the current client request

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    $res = $c->response;
    $res->body;
    $res->code;
    $res->content_encoding;
    $res->content_length;
    $res->content_type;
    $res->cookies;
    $res->header;
    $res->headers;
    $res->output;
    $res->redirect;
    $res->status;
    $res->write;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is the Catalyst Response class, which provides methods for responding to
the current client request. The appropriate L<Catalyst::Engine> for your environment
will turn the Catalyst::Response into a HTTP Response and return it to the client.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 $res->body( $text | $fh | $iohandle_object )

    $c->response->body('Catalyst rocks!');

Sets or returns the output (text or binary data). If you are returning a large body,
you might want to use a L<IO::Handle> type of object (Something that implements the read method
in the same fashion), or a filehandle GLOB. Catalyst
will write it piece by piece into the response.

When using a L<IO::Handle> type of object and no content length has been
already set in the response headers Catalyst will make a reasonable attempt
to determine the size of the Handle. Depending on the implementation of your
handle object, setting the content length may fail. If it is at all possible
for you to determine the content length of your handle object, 
it is recommended that you set the content length in the response headers
yourself, which will be respected and sent by Catalyst in the response.

Please note that the object needs to implement C<getline>, not just
C<read>.

Starting from version 5.90060, when using an L<IO::Handle> object, you
may want to use L<Plack::Middleware::XSendfile>, to delegate the
actual serving to the frontend server. To do so, you need to pass to
C<body> an IO object with a C<path> method. This can be achieved in
two ways.

Either using L<Plack::Util>:

  my $fh = IO::File->new($file, 'r');
  Plack::Util::set_io_path($fh, $file);

Or using L<IO::File::WithPath>

  my $fh = IO::File::WithPath->new($file, 'r');

And then passing the filehandle to body and setting headers, if needed.

  $c->response->body($fh);
  $c->response->headers->content_type('text/plain');
  $c->response->headers->content_length(-s $file);
  $c->response->headers->last_modified((stat($file))[9]);

L<Plack::Middleware::XSendfile> can be loaded in the application so:

 __PACKAGE__->config(
     psgi_middleware => [
         'XSendfile',
         # other middlewares here...
        ],
 );

B<Beware> that loading the middleware without configuring the
webserver to set the request header C<X-Sendfile-Type> to a supported
type (C<X-Accel-Redirect> for nginx, C<X-Sendfile> for Apache and
Lighttpd), could lead to the disclosure of private paths to malicious
clients setting that header.

Nginx needs the additional X-Accel-Mapping header to be set in the
webserver configuration, so the middleware will replace the absolute
path of the IO object with the internal nginx path. This is also
useful to prevent a buggy app to server random files from the
filesystem, as it's an internal redirect.

An nginx configuration for FastCGI could look so:

 server {
     server_name example.com;
     root /my/app/root;
     location /private/repo/ {
         internal;
         alias /my/app/repo/;
     }
     location /private/staging/ {
         internal;
         alias /my/app/staging/;
     }
     location @proxy {
         include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
         fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME '';
         fastcgi_param PATH_INFO   $fastcgi_script_name;
         fastcgi_param HTTP_X_SENDFILE_TYPE X-Accel-Redirect;
         fastcgi_param HTTP_X_ACCEL_MAPPING /my/app=/private;
         fastcgi_pass  unix:/my/app/run/app.sock;
    }
 }

In the example above, passing filehandles with a local path matching
/my/app/staging or /my/app/repo will be served by nginx. Passing paths
with other locations will lead to an internal server error.

Setting the body to a filehandle without the C<path> method bypasses
the middleware completely.

For Apache and Lighttpd, the mapping doesn't apply and setting the
X-Sendfile-Type is enough.

=head2 $res->has_body

Predicate which returns true when a body has been set.

=head2 $res->code

Alias for $res->status.

=head2 $res->content_encoding

Shortcut for $res->headers->content_encoding.

=head2 $res->content_length

Shortcut for $res->headers->content_length.

=head2 $res->content_type

Shortcut for $res->headers->content_type.

This value is typically set by your view or plugin. For example,
L<Catalyst::Plugin::Static::Simple> will guess the mime type based on the file
it found, while L<Catalyst::View::TT> defaults to C<text/html>.

=head2 $res->cookies

Returns a reference to a hash containing cookies to be set. The keys of the
hash are the cookies' names, and their corresponding values are hash
references used to construct a L<CGI::Simple::Cookie> object.

    $c->response->cookies->{foo} = { value => '123' };

The keys of the hash reference on the right correspond to the L<CGI::Simple::Cookie>
parameters of the same name, except they are used without a leading dash.
Possible parameters are:

=over

=item value

=item expires

=item domain

=item path

=item secure

=item httponly

=back

=head2 $res->header

Shortcut for $res->headers->header.

=head2 $res->headers

Returns an L<HTTP::Headers> object, which can be used to set headers.

    $c->response->headers->header( 'X-Catalyst' => $Catalyst::VERSION );

=head2 $res->output

Alias for $res->body.

=head2 $res->redirect( $url, $status )

Causes the response to redirect to the specified URL. The default status is
C<302>.

    $c->response->redirect( 'http://slashdot.org' );
    $c->response->redirect( 'http://slashdot.org', 307 );

This is a convenience method that sets the Location header to the
redirect destination, and then sets the response status.  You will
want to C< return > or C<< $c->detach() >> to interrupt the normal
processing flow if you want the redirect to occur straight away.

B<Note:> do not give a relative URL as $url, i.e: one that is not fully
qualified (= C<http://...>, etc.) or that starts with a slash
(= C</path/here>). While it may work, it is not guaranteed to do the right
thing and is not a standard behaviour. You may opt to use uri_for() or
uri_for_action() instead.

=cut

sub redirect {
    my $self = shift;

    if (@_) {
        my $location = shift;
        my $status   = shift || 302;

        $self->location($location);
        $self->status($status);
    }

    return $self->location;
}

=head2 $res->location

Sets or returns the HTTP 'Location'.

=head2 $res->status

Sets or returns the HTTP status.

    $c->response->status(404);

$res->code is an alias for this, to match HTTP::Response->code.

=head2 $res->write( $data )

Writes $data to the output stream.

=head2 $res->write_fh

Returns a PSGI $writer object that has two methods, write and close.  You can
close over this object for asynchronous and nonblocking applications.  For
example (assuming you are using a supporting server, like L<Twiggy>

    package AsyncExample::Controller::Root;

    use Moose;

    BEGIN { extends 'Catalyst::Controller' }

    sub prepare_cb {
      my $write_fh = pop;
      return sub {
        my $message = shift;
        $write_fh->write("Finishing: $message\n");
        $write_fh->close;
      };
    }

    sub anyevent :Local :Args(0) {
      my ($self, $c) = @_;
      my $cb = $self->prepare_cb($c->res->write_fh);

      my $watcher;
      $watcher = AnyEvent->timer(
        after => 5,
        cb => sub {
          $cb->(scalar localtime);
          undef $watcher; # cancel circular-ref
        });
    }

=head2 $res->print( @data )

Prints @data to the output stream, separated by $,.  This lets you pass
the response object to functions that want to write to an L<IO::Handle>.

=head2 $self->finalize_headers($c)

Writes headers to response if not already written

=head2 from_psgi_response

Given a PSGI response (either three element ARRAY reference OR coderef expecting
a $responder) set the response from it.

Properly supports streaming and delayed response and / or async IO if running
under an expected event loop.

Example:

    package MyApp::Web::Controller::Test;

    use base 'Catalyst::Controller';
    use Plack::App::Directory;


    my $app = Plack::App::Directory->new({ root => "/path/to/htdocs" })
      ->to_app;

    sub myaction :Local Args {
      my ($self, $c) = @_;
      $c->res->from_psgi_response($app->($c->req->env));
    }

Please note this does not attempt to map or nest your PSGI application under
the Controller and Action namespace or path.  

=head2 DEMOLISH

Ensures that the response is flushed and closed at the end of the
request.
