class HTTP::Server::Response

Overview

The response to configure and write to in an HTTP::Server handler.

The response #status and #headers must be configured before writing the response body. Once response output is written, changing the #status and #headers properties has no effect.

The HTTP::Server::Response is a write-only IO, so all IO methods are available in it.

A response can be upgraded with the #upgrade method. Once invoked, headers are written and the connection IO (a socket) is yielded to the given block. This is useful to implement protocol upgrades, such as websockets.

Defined in:

http/server/response.cr

Instance Method Detail

def closeSource

Closes this response, writing headers and body if not done yet. This method must be implemented if wrapping the response output.

def closed?Source

Returns true if this response has been closed.

def content_length=(content_length : Int)Source

Convenience method to set the Content-Length header.

def content_type=(content_type : String)Source

Convenience method to set the Content-Type header.

def cookiesSource

Convenience method to set cookies, see HTTP::Cookies.

def flushSource

Flushes the output. This method must be implemented if wrapping the response output.

def headers : HTTP::HeadersSource

The response headers (HTTP::Headers). These must be set before writing to the response.

def output : IOSource

The IO to which output is written. This can be changed/wrapped to filter the response body (for example to compress the output).

def output=(output : IO)Source

The IO to which output is written. This can be changed/wrapped to filter the response body (for example to compress the output).

def respond_with_status(status : HTTP::Status, message : String? = nil)Source

Sends status and message as response.

This method calls #reset to remove any previous settings and writes the given status and message to the response IO. Finally, it closes the response.

If message is nil, the default message for status is used provided by HTTP::Status#description.

def respond_with_status(status : Int, message : String? = nil)Source

Sends status and message as response.

This method calls #reset to remove any previous settings and writes the given status and message to the response IO. Finally, it closes the response.

If message is nil, the default message for status is used provided by HTTP::Status#description.

def status : HTTP::StatusSource

The status code of this response, which must be set before writing the response body. If not set, the default value is 200 (OK).

def status=(status : HTTP::Status)Source

The status code of this response, which must be set before writing the response body. If not set, the default value is 200 (OK).

def status_codeSource

Convenience method to retrieve the HTTP status code.

def status_code=(status_code : Int32)Source

Convenience method to set the HTTP status code.

def upgrade(&block : IO -> )Source

Upgrades this response, writing headers and yieling the connection IO (a socket) to the given block. This is useful to implement protocol upgrades, such as websockets.

def version : StringSource

The version of the HTTP::Request that created this response.

def write(slice : Bytes) : NilSource

See IO#write(slice).
