Struct http::request::Request[][src]

pub struct Request<T> { /* fields omitted */ }

Represents an HTTP request.

An HTTP request consists of a head and a potentially optional body. The body component is generic, enabling arbitrary types to represent the HTTP body. For example, the body could be Vec<u8>, a Stream of byte chunks, or a value that has been deserialized.

Examples

Creating a Request to send

use http::{Request, Response};

let mut request = Request::builder();
request.uri("https://www.rust-lang.org/")
       .header("User-Agent", "my-awesome-agent/1.0");

if needs_awesome_header() {
    request.header("Awesome", "yes");
}

let response = send(request.body(()).unwrap());

fn send(req: Request<()>) -> Response<()> {
    // ...
}

Inspecting a request to see what was sent.

use http::{Request, Response, StatusCode};

fn respond_to(req: Request<()>) -> http::Result<Response<()>> {
    if req.uri() != "/awesome-url" {
        return Response::builder()
            .status(StatusCode::NOT_FOUND)
            .body(())
    }

    let has_awesome_header = req.headers().contains_key("Awesome");
    let body = req.body();

    // ...
}

Deserialize a request of bytes via json:

use http::Request;
use serde::de;

fn deserialize<T>(req: Request<Vec<u8>>) -> serde_json::Result<Request<T>>
    where for<'de> T: de::Deserialize<'de>,
{
    let (parts, body) = req.into_parts();
    let body = serde_json::from_slice(&body)?;
    Ok(Request::from_parts(parts, body))
}

Or alternatively, serialize the body of a request to json

use http::Request;
use serde::ser;

fn serialize<T>(req: Request<T>) -> serde_json::Result<Request<Vec<u8>>>
    where T: ser::Serialize,
{
    let (parts, body) = req.into_parts();
    let body = serde_json::to_vec(&body)?;
    Ok(Request::from_parts(parts, body))
}

impl<T> Request<T>
[src]

Creates a new blank Request with the body

The component ports of this request will be set to their default, e.g. the GET method, no headers, etc.

Examples

let request = Request::new("hello world");

assert_eq!(*request.method(), Method::GET);
assert_eq!(*request.body(), "hello world");

Creates a new Request with the given components parts and body.

Examples

let request = Request::new("hello world");
let (mut parts, body) = request.into_parts();
parts.method = Method::POST;

let request = Request::from_parts(parts, body);

Returns a reference to the associated HTTP method.

Examples

let request: Request<()> = Request::default();
assert_eq!(*request.method(), Method::GET);

Returns a mutable reference to the associated HTTP method.

Examples

let mut request: Request<()> = Request::default();
*request.method_mut() = Method::PUT;
assert_eq!(*request.method(), Method::PUT);

Returns a reference to the associated URI.

Examples

let request: Request<()> = Request::default();
assert_eq!(*request.uri(), *"/");

Returns a mutable reference to the associated URI.

Examples

let mut request: Request<()> = Request::default();
*request.uri_mut() = "/hello".parse().unwrap();
assert_eq!(*request.uri(), *"/hello");

Returns the associated version.

let request: Request<()> = Request::default();
assert_eq!(request.version(), Version::HTTP_11);

Returns a mutable reference to the associated version.

let mut request: Request<()> = Request::default();

let mut request: Request<()> = Request::default();
request.headers_mut().insert(HOST, HeaderValue::from_static("world"));
assert!(!request.headers().is_empty());

Returns a reference to the associated extensions.

Examples

let request: Request<()> = Request::default();
assert!(request.extensions().get::<i32>().is_none());

Returns a mutable reference to the associated extensions.

Examples

let mut request: Request<()> = Request::default();
request.extensions_mut().insert("hello");
assert_eq!(request.extensions().get(), Some(&"hello"));

Returns a reference to the associated HTTP body.

Examples

let request: Request<String> = Request::default();
assert!(request.body().is_empty());

Returns a mutable reference to the associated HTTP body.

Examples

let mut request: Request<String> = Request::default();
request.body_mut().push_str("hello world");
assert!(!request.body().is_empty());

Consumes the request, returning just the body.

Examples

let request = Request::new(10);
let body = request.into_body();
