=head1 DESCRIPTION
-This is the Catalyst Request class, which provides a set of accessors to the
-request data. The request object is prepared by the specialized Catalyst
-Engine module thus hiding the details of the particular engine implementation.
-
+This is the Catalyst Request class, which provides an interface to data for the
+current client request. The request object is prepared by L<Catalyst::Engine>,
+thus hiding the details of the particular engine implementation.
=head1 METHODS
-=over 4
+=head2 $req->action
-=item $req->action
+Returns the requested action as a L<Catalyst::Action> object.
-Contains the action.
+=head2 $req->address
- print $c->request->action;
+Returns the IP address of the client.
-=item $req->address
+=head2 $req->arguments
-Contains the remote address.
+Returns a reference to an array containing the arguments.
- print $c->request->address
+ print $c->request->arguments->[0];
-=item $req->arguments
+For example, if your action was
-=item $req->args
+ package MyApp::C::Foo;
+
+ sub moose : Local {
+ ...
+ }
-Returns a reference to an array containing the arguments.
+and the URI for the request was C<http://.../foo/moose/bah>, the string C<bah>
+would be the first and only argument.
- print $c->request->arguments->[0];
+=head2 $req->args
+
+Shortcut for arguments.
+
+=head2 $req->base
+
+Contains the URI base. This will always have a trailing slash.
+
+If your application was queried with the URI
+C<http://localhost:3000/some/path> then C<base> is C<http://localhost:3000/>.
+
+=cut
+
+sub base {
+ my ( $self, $base ) = @_;
-=item $req->base
+ return $self->{base} unless $base;
+
+ $self->{base} = $base;
+
+ # set the value in path for backwards-compat
+ if ( $self->uri ) {
+ $self->path;
+ }
+
+ return $self->{base};
+}
+
+=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>.
+
+=cut
+
+sub body {
+ my ( $self, $body ) = @_;
+ $self->{_context}->prepare_body;
+ return $self->{_body}->body;
+}
+
+=head2 $req->body_parameters
+
+Returns a reference to a hash containing body (POST) parameters. Values can
+be either a scalar or an arrayref containing scalars.
+
+ print $c->request->body_parameters->{field};
+ print $c->request->body_parameters->{field}->[0];
+
+These are the parameters from the POST part of the request, if any.
+
+=head2 $req->body_params
+
+Shortcut for body_parameters.
+
+=cut
-Contains the uri base.
+sub body_parameters {
+ my ( $self, $params ) = @_;

+ $self->{body_parameters} = $params if $params;
+ return $self->{body_parameters};
+}
-=item $req->cookies
+=head2 $req->content_encoding
+
+Shortcut for $req->headers->content_encoding.
+
+=head2 $req->content_length
+
+Shortcut for $req->headers->content_length.
+
+=head2 $req->content_type
+
+Shortcut for $req->headers->content_type.
+
+=head2 $req->cookie
+
+A convenient method to access $req->cookies.
+
+ $cookie = $c->request->cookie('name');
+ @cookies = $c->request->cookie;
+
+=cut
+
+sub cookie {
+ my $self = shift;

+ my $name = shift;
+
+ unless ( exists $self->cookies->{$name} ) {
+ return undef;
+ }
+
+ return $self->cookies->{$name};
+ }
+}
+
+=head2 $req->cookies
Returns a reference to a hash containing the cookies.
print $c->request->cookies->{mycookie}->value;
-=item $req->headers
+The cookies in the hash are indexed by name, and the values are L<CGI::Cookie>
+objects.
-Returns an L<HTTP::Headers> object containing the headers.
+=head2 $req->header
- print $c->request->headers->header('X-Catalyst');
+Shortcut for $req->headers->header.
-=item $req->hostname
+=head2 $req->headers
-Contains the remote hostname.
+Returns an L<HTTP::Headers> object containing the headers for the current request.
- print $c->request->hostname
+ print $c->request->headers->header('X-Catalyst');
-=item $req->match
+=head2 $req->hostname
-Contains the match.
+Returns the hostname of the client.
+
+=cut

+ }
-Returns a reference to a hash containing the parameters.
+ return $self->{hostname};
+}
- print $c->request->parameters->{foo};
+=head2 $req->input
-=item $req->path
+Alias for $req->body.
-Contains the path.
+=head2 $req->match
- print $c->request->path;
+This contains the matching part of a Regex action. Otherwise
+it returns the same as 'action'.
-=item $req->method
+=head2 $req->method
Contains the request method (C<GET>, C<POST>, C<HEAD>, etc).
- print $c->request->method
+=head2 $req->param
+
+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' );
+ @values = $c->request->param( 'foo' );
+ @params = $c->request->param;
+
+Like L<CGI>, and B<unlike> earlier versions of Catalyst, passing multiple
+arguments to this method, like this:
+
+ $c->request->param( 'foo', 'bar', 'gorch', 'quxx' );
+
+will set the parameter C<foo> to the multiple values C<bar>, C<gorch> and
+C<quxx>. Previously this would have added C<bar> as another value to C<foo>
+(creating it if it didn't exist before), and C<quxx> as another value for
+C<gorch>.

+
