Constructor Details

#initialize(options = {}, &block) ⇒ CGI

  • tag_maker: html_version: specifies which version of HTML to use in generating tags.

    Value html_version may be one of:

    Example:

    CGI.new(tag_maker: 'html5')
    

    If the option is not given, no HTML generation methods are loaded.

With string argument tag_maker given as tag_maker and no block given, equivalent to CGI.new(tag_maker: tag_maker):

CGI.new('html5')

Outside a Standard Call Environment

This section assumes that ENV['REQUEST_METHOD'] is not defined; for example:

ENV['REQUEST_METHOD'] # => nil

In this mode, the method reads its parameters from the command line or (failing that) from standard input; returns a new CGI object.

Otherwise, cookies and other parameters are parsed automatically from the standard CGI locations, which vary according to the request method.

Options vs Public Methods

Some initialization options configure internal behavior only and do not provide corresponding public getter methods:

  • accept_charset: Configures internal encoding for parsing. The accept_charset method returns the HTTP Accept-Charset header.

  • max_multipart_length: Configures internal multipart size limits. No public getter method is available.

  • tag_maker: Loads HTML generation methods (publicly accessible).

Block

If a block is given, its code is stored as a Proc; whenever CGI::InvalidEncoding would be raised, the proc is called instead.

In this example, the proc simply saves the error:

encoding_errors={}
CGI.new(accept_charset: 'EUC-JP') do |name,value|
  encoding_errors[name] = value
end
# =>
#<CGI:0x000002b0ec11bcd8

 @accept_charset_error_block=#<Proc:0x000002b0ed2ee190 (irb):146>,

Instance Method Details

#http_header(options = 'text/html') ⇒ Object Also known as: header

Create an HTTP header block as a string.

:call-seq:

http_header(content_type_string="text/html")
http_header(headers_hash)

Includes the empty line that ends the header block.

If this form is used, this string is the Content-Type

headers_hash

A Hash of header values. The following header keys are recognized:

type

The Content-Type header. Defaults to “text/html”

charset

The charset of the body, appended to the Content-Type header.

nph

A boolean value. If true, prepend protocol string and status code, and date; and sets default values for “server” and “connection” if not explicitly set.

status

The HTTP status code as a String, returned as the Status header. The values are:

OK

200 OK

PARTIAL_CONTENT

length

The length of the content that will be sent, returned as the Content-Length header.

language

The language of the content, returned as the Content-Language header.

expires

The time on which the current content expires, as a Time object, returned as the Expires header.

cookie

A cookie or cookies, returned as one or more Set-Cookie headers. The value can be the literal string of the cookie; a CGI::Cookie object; an Array of literal cookie strings or Cookie objects; or a hash all of whose values are literal cookie strings or Cookie objects.

These cookies are in addition to the cookies held in the @output_cookies field.

Other headers can also be set; they are appended as key: value.

Examples:

http_header
  # Content-Type: text/html

http_header("text/plain")
  # Content-Type: text/plain

http_header("nph"        => true,
            "status"     => "OK",  # == "200 OK"
              # "status"     => "200 GOOD",

            "my_header1" => "my_value",
            "my_header2" => "my_value")

This method does not perform charset conversion.

#out(options = "text/html") ⇒ Object

Print an HTTP header and body to $DEFAULT_OUTPUT ($>)

:call-seq:

cgi.out(content_type_string='text/html')
cgi.out(headers_hash)
content_type_string

If a string is passed, it is assumed to be the content type.

headers_hash

This is a Hash of headers, similar to that used by #http_header.

block

A block is required and should evaluate to the body of the response.

Content-Length is automatically calculated from the size of the String returned by the content block.

If ENV['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "HEAD", then only the header is output (the content block is still required, but it is ignored).

If the charset is “iso-2022-jp” or “euc-jp” or “shift_jis” then the content is converted to this charset, and the language is set to “ja”.

Example:

cgi = CGI.new
cgi.out{ "string" }
  # Content-Type: text/html
  # Content-Length: 6
  #
  # string

cgi.out("text/plain") { "string" }
  # Content-Type: text/plain
  # Content-Length: 6
  #
  # string

cgi.out("nph"        => true,
        "status"     => "OK",  # == "200 OK"
        "server"     => ENV['SERVER_SOFTWARE'],
        "connection" => "close",
        "type"       => "text/html",
        "charset"    => "iso-2022-jp",
          # Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-2022-jp
        "language"   => "ja",
        "expires"    => Time.now + (3600 * 24 * 30),
        "cookie"     => [cookie1, cookie2],
        "my_header1" => "my_value",
