pub struct Response { /* private fields */ }
Expand description
An HTTP response, including body, headers, and status code.
Sending to the client
Each execution of a Compute@Edge program may send a single response back to the client:
If no response is explicitly sent by the program, a default 200 OK
response is sent.
Creation and conversion
Responses can be created programmatically:
Responses are also returned from backend requests:
For interoperability with other Rust libraries, Response
can be converted to and from the
http
crate’s http::Response
type using the From
and
Into
traits.
Builder-style methods
Response
can be used as a
builder, allowing responses to
be constructed and used through method chaining. Methods with the with_
name prefix, such as
with_header()
, return Self
to allow chaining. The builder style is
typically most useful when constructing and using a response in a single expression. For
example:
Response::new()
.with_header("my-header", "hello!")
.with_header("my-other-header", "Здравствуйте!")
.send_to_client();
Setter methods
Setter methods, such as set_header()
, are prefixed by set_
, and can
be used interchangeably with the builder-style methods, allowing you to mix and match styles
based on what is most convenient for your program. Setter methods tend to work better than
builder-style methods when constructing a value involves conditional branches or loops. For
example:
let mut resp = Response::new().with_header("my-header", "hello!");
if needs_translation {
resp.set_header("my-other-header", "Здравствуйте!");
}
resp.send_to_client();
Implementations
Create a new Response
.
The new response is created with status code 200 OK
, no headers, and an empty body.
Return whether the response is from a backend request.
Make a new response with the same headers, status, and version of this response, but no body.
If you also need to clone the response body, use
clone_with_body()
Examples
let original = Response::from_body("hello")
.with_header("hello", "world!")
.with_status(418);
let new = original.clone_without_body();
assert_eq!(original.get_header("hello"), new.get_header("hello"));
assert_eq!(original.get_status(), new.get_status());
assert_eq!(original.get_version(), new.get_version());
assert!(original.has_body());
assert!(!new.has_body());
Clone this response by reading in its body, and then writing the same body to the original and the cloned response.
This method requires mutable access to this response because reading from and writing to the body can involve an HTTP connection.
This operation is potentially expensive if the body is large. Take care when using this
method on bodies with unknown sizes. Consider using methods like BufRead::lines()
or
Body::read_chunks()
to incrementally process a body while limiting the maximum size.
Examples
let mut original = Response::from_body("hello")
.with_header("hello", "world!")
.with_status(418);
let mut new = original.clone_with_body();
assert_eq!(original.get_header("hello"), new.get_header("hello"));
assert_eq!(original.get_status(), new.get_status());
assert_eq!(original.get_version(), new.get_version());
assert_eq!(original.take_body_bytes(), new.take_body_bytes());
Create a new Response
with the given value as the body.
Argument type conversion.
See Body
for details on which types can be used as a body.
Examples
let resp = Response::from_body("hello");
assert_eq!(&resp.into_body_str(), "hello");
let body_bytes: &[u8] = &[1, 2, 3];
let resp = Response::from_body(body_bytes);
assert_eq!(resp.into_body_bytes().as_slice(), body_bytes);
Create a new response with the given status code.
Argument type conversion.
See Body
for details on which types can be used as a body.
Examples
use fastly::http::StatusCode;
let resp = Response::from_status(StatusCode::NOT_FOUND);
assert_eq!(resp.get_status().as_u16(), 404);
use fastly::http::StatusCode;
let resp = Response::from_status(404);
assert_eq!(resp.get_status(), StatusCode::NOT_FOUND);
Create a 303 See Other response with the given value as the Location
header.
Examples
let resp = Response::see_other("https://www.fastly.com");
assert_eq!(resp.get_status(), StatusCode::SEE_OTHER);
assert_eq!(resp.get_header_str(header::LOCATION).unwrap(), "https://www.fastly.com");
Create a 308 Permanent Redirect response with the given value as the Location
header.
Examples
let resp = Response::redirect("https://www.fastly.com");
assert_eq!(resp.get_status(), StatusCode::PERMANENT_REDIRECT);
assert_eq!(resp.get_header_str(header::LOCATION).unwrap(), "https://www.fastly.com");
Create a 307 Temporary Redirect response with the given value as the Location
header.
Examples
let resp = Response::temporary_redirect("https://www.fastly.com");
assert_eq!(resp.get_status(), StatusCode::TEMPORARY_REDIRECT);
assert_eq!(resp.get_header_str(header::LOCATION).unwrap(), "https://www.fastly.com");
Builder-style equivalent of set_body()
.
Get a mutable reference to the body of this response.
An empty body is returned if no body has been set, or if it has previously been returned by a method
like take_body()
.
Examples
use std::io::Write;
let mut resp = Response::from_body("hello,");
write!(resp.get_body_mut(), " world!").unwrap();
assert_eq!(&resp.into_body_str(), "hello, world!");
Get a shared reference to the body of this response if it has one, otherwise return None
.
Examples
use std::io::Write;
let mut resp = Response::new();
assert!(resp.try_get_body_mut().is_none());
resp.set_body("hello,");
write!(resp.try_get_body_mut().expect("body now exists"), " world!").unwrap();
assert_eq!(&resp.into_body_str(), "hello, world!");
Get a prefix of this response’s body containing up to the given number of bytes.
See Body::get_prefix_mut()
for details.
Get a prefix of this response’s body as a string containing up to the given number of bytes.
See Body::get_prefix_str_mut()
for details.
Panics
If the prefix contains invalid UTF-8 bytes, this function will panic. The exception to this is if the bytes are invalid because a multi-byte codepoint is cut off by the requested prefix length. In this case, the invalid bytes are left off the end of the prefix.
To explicitly handle the possibility of invalid UTF-8 bytes, use
try_get_body_prefix_str_mut()
, which returns an
error on failure rather than panicking.
pub fn try_get_body_prefix_str_mut(
&mut self,
length: usize
) -> Result<PrefixString<'_>, Utf8Error>
pub fn try_get_body_prefix_str_mut(
&mut self,
length: usize
) -> Result<PrefixString<'_>, Utf8Error>
Try to get a prefix of the body as a string containing up to the given number of bytes.
See Body::try_get_prefix_str_mut()
for details.
Set the given value as the response’s body.
Argument type conversion.
See Body
for details on which types can be used as a body.
Any previous body that may have been set on the response is discarded. To add to an existing body,
use get_body_mut()
and write to the returned Body
.
Take and return the body from this response.
After calling this method, this response will no longer have a body.
An empty body is returned if no body has been set, or if it has previously been returned by a method
like take_body()
.
Take and return the body from this response if it has one, otherwise return None
.
After calling this method, this response will no longer have a body.
Append another Body
to the body of this response without reading or writing any body
contents.
If this response does not have a body, the appended body is set as the response’s body.
This operation is performed in amortized constant time, and so should always be preferred to reading an entire body and then writing the same contents to another body.
This method should be used when combining bodies that have not necessarily been read yet,
such as a body returned from a backend response. To append contents that are already in
memory as strings or bytes, use get_body_mut()
to write the
contents to the end of the body.
Examples
let mut resp = Response::from_body("hello! backend says: ");
let backend_resp = Request::get("https://example.com/").send("example_backend").unwrap();
resp.append_body(backend_resp.into_body());
resp.send_to_client();
Consume the response and return its body as a byte vector.
Memory usage
This method will cause the entire body to be buffering in WebAssembly memory. You should take care
not to exceed the WebAssembly memory limits, and consider using methods like
read_body_lines()
or
read_body_chunks()
to control how much of the body you process at
once.
Examples
let resp = Response::from_body(b"hello, world!".to_vec());
let bytes = resp.into_body_bytes();
assert_eq!(&bytes, b"hello, world!");
Consume the response and return its body as a string.

not to exceed the WebAssembly memory limits, and consider using methods like
read_body_lines()
or

once.
Panics
If the body does not contain a valid UTF-8 string, this function will panic. To explicitly handle
the possibility of invalid UTF-8 data, use into_body_str_lossy()
for lossy conversion, or use into_body_bytes()
and then convert the
bytes explicitly with a function like String::from_utf8
.
Examples
let resp = Response::from_body("hello, world!");
let string = resp.into_body_str();
assert_eq!(&string, "hello, world!");
Consume the response and return its body as a string, including invalid characters.
Only the valid UTF-8 characters present are returned.

assert!(values.contains(&&HeaderName::from_static("hello")));
assert!(values.contains(&&HeaderName::from_static("goodbye")));
You can use the iterator in a loop:
let resp = Response::new()
.with_header("hello", "world!")
.with_header("goodbye", "latency!");
for name in resp.get_header_names() {
println!("saw header: {:?}", name);
}
Set a response header to the given value, discarding any previous values for the given header name.
Argument type conversion
The header name and value arguments can be any types that implement ToHeaderName
and
ToHeaderValue
, respectively. See those traits for details on which types can be used and when
panics may arise during conversion.
Examples
let mut resp = Response::new();
resp.set_header("hello", "world!");
assert_eq!(resp.get_header_str("hello"), Some("world!"));
resp.set_header("hello", "universe!");
let values = resp.get_header_all_str("hello");
assert_eq!(values.len(), 1);
assert!(!values.contains(&"world!"));
assert!(values.contains(&"universe!"));
Add a response header with given value.
Unlike set_header()
, this does not discard existing values for the
same header name.
Argument type conversion
The header name and value arguments can be any types that implement ToHeaderName
and
ToHeaderValue
, respectively. See those traits for details on which types can be used and when
panics may arise during conversion.
Examples
let mut resp = Response::new();
resp.set_header("hello", "world!");
assert_eq!(resp.get_header_str("hello"), Some("world!"));
resp.append_header("hello", "universe!");
let values = resp.get_header_all_str("hello");
assert_eq!(values.len(), 2);
assert!(values.contains(&"world!"));
assert!(values.contains(&"universe!"));
Remove all response headers of the given name, and return one of the removed header values if any were present.
If the header has multiple values, one is returned arbitrarily. To get all of the removed
header values, or to get a specific value, use
get_header_all()
.
Argument type conversion
The header name argument can be any type that implements ToHeaderName
; see that trait for
details on which types can be used and when panics may arise during conversion.
Examples
let mut resp = Response::new().with_header("hello", "world!");
assert_eq!(resp.get_header_str("hello"), Some("world!"));
assert_eq!(resp.remove_header("hello"), Some(HeaderValue::from_static("world!")));
assert!(resp.remove_header("not-present").is_none());
Remove all response headers of the given name, and return one of the removed header values as a string if any were present.
If the header has multiple values, one is returned arbitrarily. To get all of the removed header
values, use get_header_all()
before removing.
Argument type conversion
The header name argument can be any type that implements ToHeaderName
; see that trait for
details on which types can be used and when panics may arise during conversion.
Panics
This method panics if the value of the header is not a valid UTF-8 string. To handle the possibility
of invalid UTF-8 data, use remove_header_str_lossy
for lossy
conversion, or use remove_header()
and then convert the bytes with
HeaderValue::to_str()
.
Examples
let mut resp = Response::new().with_header("hello", "world!");
assert_eq!(resp.get_header_str("hello"), Some("world!"));
assert_eq!(resp.remove_header_str("hello"), Some("world!".to_string()));
assert!(resp.remove_header_str("not-present").is_none());
Remove all response headers of the given name, and return one of the removed header values as a string, including invalid characters, if any were present.
Only the valid UTF-8 characters present are returned.
Invalid UTF-8 characters are replaced with U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER
.
If the header has multiple values, one is returned arbitrarily. To get all of the removed header
values, use get_header_all()
before removing.
Argument type conversion
The header name argument can be any type that implements ToHeaderName
; see that trait for
details on which types can be used and when panics may arise during conversion.
Examples
let header_value = HeaderValue::from_bytes(b"\xF0\x90\x80 world!").unwrap();
let mut resp = Response::new().with_header("hello", header_value);
assert_eq!(resp.get_header_str_lossy("hello"), Some(Cow::from("� world")));
assert_eq!(resp.remove_header_str_lossy("hello"), Some(String::from("� world")));
assert!(resp.remove_header_str_lossy("not-present").is_none());
Builder-style equivalent of set_status()
.
Get the HTTP status code of the response.
Set the HTTP status code of the response.
Argument type conversion
The status code argument can be any type that implements ToStatusCode
; see that trait for
details on which types can be used and when panics may arise during conversion.
Examples
Using the constants from StatusCode
:
use fastly::http::StatusCode;
let mut resp = Response::from_body("not found!");
resp.set_status(StatusCode::NOT_FOUND);
resp.send_to_client();
Using a u16
:
let mut resp = Response::from_body("not found!");
resp.set_status(404);
resp.send_to_client();
Builder-style equivalent of set_version()
.
Get the HTTP version of this response.
Set the HTTP version of this response.
Get the name of the Backend
this response came from, or None
if the response is
synthetic.
Examples
From a backend response:
let backend_resp = Request::get("https://example.com/").send("example_backend").unwrap();
assert_eq!(backend_resp.get_backend_name(), Some("example_backend"));
From a synthetic response:
let synthetic_resp = Response::new();
assert!(synthetic_resp.get_backend_name().is_none());
Get the backend this response came from, or None
if the response is synthetic.
Examples
From a backend response:
let backend_resp = Request::get("https://example.com/").send("example_backend").unwrap();
assert_eq!(backend_resp.get_backend(), Some(&Backend::from_name("example_backend").unwrap()));
From a synthetic response:
let synthetic_resp = Response::new();
assert!(synthetic_resp.get_backend().is_none());
Get the request this response came from, or None
if the response is synthetic.
Note that the returned request will only have the headers and metadata of the original request, as the body is consumed when sending the request.
This method only returns a reference to the backend request. To instead take and return the
owned request (for example, to subsequently send the request again), use
take_backend_request()
.
Examples
From a backend response:
let backend_resp = Request::post("https://example.com/")
.with_body("hello")
.send("example_backend")
.unwrap();
let backend_req = backend_resp.get_backend_request().expect("response is not synthetic");
assert_eq!(backend_req.get_url_str(), "https://example.com/");
assert!(!backend_req.has_body());
From a synthetic response:
let synthetic_resp = Response::new();
assert!(synthetic_resp.get_backend_request().is_none());
Take and return the request this response came from, or None
if the response is synthetic.
Note that the returned request will only have the headers and metadata of the original request, as the body is consumed when sending the request.
Examples
From a backend response:
let mut backend_resp = Request::post("https://example.com/")
.with_body("hello")
.send("example_backend")
.unwrap();
let backend_req = backend_resp.take_backend_request().expect("response is not synthetic");
assert_eq!(backend_req.get_url_str(), "https://example.com/");
assert!(!backend_req.has_body());
backend_req.with_body("goodbye").send("example_backend").unwrap();
From a synthetic response:
let mut synthetic_resp = Response::new();
assert!(synthetic_resp.take_backend_request().is_none());
Begin sending the response to the client.
This method returns as soon as the response header begins sending to the client, and transmission of the response will continue in the background.
Once this method is called, nothing else may be added to the response body. To stream
additional data to a response body after it begins to send, use
stream_to_client
.
Panics
This method panics if another response has already been sent to the client by this method,
by stream_to_client()
, or by the equivalent methods of
ResponseHandle
.
Examples
Sending a backend response without modification:
Request::get("https://example.com/").send("example_backend").unwrap().send_to_client();
Removing a header from a backend response before sending to the client:
let mut backend_resp = Request::get("https://example.com/").send("example_backend").unwrap();
backend_resp.remove_header("bad-header");
backend_resp.send_to_client();
Sending a synthetic response:
Response::from_body("hello, world!").send_to_client();

pub fn stream_to_client(self) -> StreamingBodyⓘNotable traits for StreamingBodyimpl Write for StreamingBody
pub fn stream_to_client(self) -> StreamingBodyⓘNotable traits for StreamingBodyimpl Write for StreamingBody
impl Write for StreamingBody
Begin sending the response to the client, and return a StreamingBody
that can accept
further data to send.
This method is most useful for programs that do some sort of processing or inspection of a potentially-large backend response body. Streaming allows the program to operate on small parts of the body rather than having to read it all into memory at once.
This method returns as soon as the response header begins sending to the client, and transmission of the response will continue in the background.
Note that the client connection is only closed once the StreamingBody
is dropped. You
can explicitly drop the body once finished to avoid holding the connection open longer than
necessary.
Panics
This method panics if another response has already been sent to the client by this method,
by send_to_client()
, or by the equivalent methods of
ResponseHandle
.
Examples
Count the number of lines in a UTF-8 backend response body while sending it to the client:
use std::io::BufRead;
let mut backend_resp = Request::get("https://example.com/").send("example_backend").unwrap();
// Take the body so we can iterate through its lines later
let backend_resp_body = backend_resp.take_body();
// Start sending the backend response to the client with a now-empty body
let mut client_body = backend_resp.stream_to_client();
let mut num_lines = 0;
for line in backend_resp_body.lines() {
let line = line.unwrap();
num_lines += 1;
// Write the line to the streaming client body
client_body.write_str(&line);
}
// Drop the streaming body to allow the client connection to close
drop(client_body);
println!("backend response body contained {} lines", num_lines);

Create a Response
from the a ResponseHandle
and a BodyHandle
, returning an error
if any ResponseLimits
are exceeded.
The extra metadata associated with a backend response is not tracked by the low-level handle
APIs. As a result, methods like get_backend()
and
get_backend_request()
will always return None
for a
request created from handles.
Create a ResponseHandle

The extra metadata associated with a backend response is not tracked by the low-level handle APIs. As a result, converting to handles will cause the backend and request associated with a backend response to be lost.
