Class HttpServerRequest

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    ReadStream<Buffer>, StreamBase

    public class HttpServerRequest
    extends Object
    implements ReadStream<Buffer>
    Represents a server-side HTTP request.

    Instances are created for each request and passed to the user via a handler.

    Each instance of this class is associated with a corresponding HttpServerResponse instance via response().

    It implements ReadStream so it can be used with Pipe to pipe data with flow control.

    NOTE: This class has been automatically generated from the original non RX-ified interface using Vert.x codegen.

        Be aware that the attributes will only be available after the whole body has been received, i.e. after the request end handler has been called.

        setExpectMultipart(boolean) must be called first before trying to get the form attributes.

      • toWebSocket

        public Single<ServerWebSocket> toWebSocket()
        Upgrade the connection of the current request to a WebSocket.

        This is an alternative way of handling WebSockets and can only be used if no WebSocket handler is set on the HttpServer, and can only be used during the upgrade request during the WebSocket handshake.

        Both handler(io.vertx.core.Handler<io.vertx.core.buffer.Buffer>) and endHandler(io.vertx.core.Handler<java.lang.Void>) will be set to get the full body of the request that is necessary to perform the WebSocket handshake.

        If you need to do an asynchronous upgrade, i.e not performed immediately in your request handler, you need to pause() the request in order to not lose HTTP events necessary to upgrade the request.

        Returns:
        a future notified with the upgraded WebSocket
      • rxToWebSocket

        public Single<ServerWebSocket> rxToWebSocket()

        public Set<Cookie> cookies​(String name)
        Returns a read only set of parsed cookies that match the given name, or an empty set. Several cookies may share the same name but have different keys. A cookie is unique by its tuple. The set entries are references to the request original set. This means that performing property changes in the cookie objects will affect the original object too. NOTE: the returned is read-only. This means any attempt to modify (add or remove to the set), will throw UnsupportedOperationException.
        Parameters:
        name - the name to be matches

        the matching cookies or empty set
      • cookies

        Returns a modifiable set of parsed cookies from the COOKIE header. Several cookies may share the same name but have different keys. A cookie is unique by its tuple. Request cookies are directly linked to response cookies. Any modification to a cookie object in the returned set will mark the cookie to be included in the HTTP response. Removing a cookie from the set, will also mean that it will be removed from the response, regardless if it was modified or not.
        Returns:
        a set with all cookies in the cookie jar.
