Instance Attribute Details

#captures ⇒ Object (readonly)

The current captures for the request. This gets modified as routing occurs.

# File 'lib/roda.rb', line 430

def captures
  @captures
end

#scope ⇒ Object (readonly)

The Roda instance related to this request object. Useful if routing methods need access to the scope of the Roda route block.

# File 'lib/roda.rb', line 434

def scope
  @scope

Instance Method Details

#block_result(result) ⇒ Object

Handle match block return values. By default, if a string is given and the response is empty, use the string as the response body.

def block_result(result)
  res = response
  if res.empty? && (body = block_result_body(result))
    res.write(body)
  end
end

#full_path_info ⇒ Object

As request routing modifies SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO, this exists as a helper method to get the full path of the request.

r.env['SCRIPT_NAME'] = '/foo'
r.env['PATH_INFO'] = '/bar'
r.full_path_info
# => '/foo/bar'



450
451
452
 
# File 'lib/roda.rb', line 450

def full_path_info
  "#{@env[SCRIPT_NAME]}#{@env[PATH_INFO]}"
end

#halt(res = response.finish) ⇒ Object

Immediately stop execution of the route block and return the given rack response array of status, headers, and body. If no argument is given, uses the current response.

r.halt [200, {'Content-Type'=>'text/html'}, ['Hello World!']]

response.status = 200
response['Content-Type'] = 'text/html'
response.write 'Hello World!'
r.halt



464
465
466
 
# File 'lib/roda.rb', line 464

def halt(res=response.finish)
  throw :halt, res
end

#initialize(scope, env) ⇒ Object

Store the roda instance and environment.

# File 'lib/roda.rb', line 437

def initialize(scope, env)
  @scope = scope
  @captures = []
  super(env)
end

#inspect ⇒ Object

Show information about current request, including request class, request method and full path.

r.inspect
# => '#<Roda::RodaRequest GET /foo/bar>'



489
490
491
 
# File 'lib/roda.rb', line 489

def inspect
  "#<#{self.class.inspect} #{@env[REQUEST_METHOD]} #{full_path_info}>"
end

#is(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

Does a terminal match on the current path, matching only if the arguments have fully matched the path. If it matches, the match block is executed, and when the match block returns, the rack response is returned.

r.path_info
# => "/foo/bar"

r.is 'foo' do
  # does not match, as path isn't fully matched (/bar remaining)
end

r.is 'foo/bar' do
  # matches as path is empty after matching
end

If no arguments are given, matches if the path is already fully matched.

r.on 'foo/bar' do
  r.is do
    # matches as path is already empty
  end
end

Note that this matches only if the path after matching the arguments is empty, not if it still contains a trailing slash:

r.path_info
# =>  "/foo/bar/"

r.is 'foo/bar' do
  # does not match, as path isn't fully matched (/ remaining)
end

r.is 'foo/bar/' do
  # matches as path is empty after matching
end

r.on 'foo/bar' do
  r.is "" do
    # matches as path is empty after matching
  end
end

def is(*args, &block)
  if args.empty?
    if @env[PATH_INFO] == EMPTY_STRING
      always(&block)
    end
  else
    args << TERM
    if_match(args, &block)
  end
end

#is_get? ⇒ Boolean

Optimized method for whether this request is a GET request. Similar to the default Rack::Request get? method, but can be overridden without changing rack’s behavior.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

# File 'lib/roda.rb', line 471

def is_get?
  @env[REQUEST_METHOD] == GET_REQUEST_METHOD
end

#on(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

Does a match on the path, matching only if the arguments have matched the path. Because this doesn’t fully match the path, this is usually used to setup branches of the routing tree, not for final handling of the request.

r.path_info
# => "/foo/bar"

r.on 'foo' do
  # matches, path is /bar after matching
end

r.on 'bar' do
  # does not match
end

Like other routing methods, If it matches, the match block is executed, and when the match block returns, the rack response is returned. However, in general you will call another routing method inside the match block that fully matches the path and does the final handling for the request:

r.on 'foo' do
  r.is 'bar' do
    # handle /foo/bar request
  end
end

def on(*args, &block)

    always(&block)
  else
    if_match(args, &block)
  end
end

#redirect(path = default_redirect_path, status = 302) ⇒ Object

Immediately redirect to the path using the status code. This ends the processing of the request:

r.redirect '/page1', 301 if r['param'] == 'value1'
r.redirect '/page2' # uses 302 status code
response.status = 404 # not reached

If you do not provide a path, by default it will redirect to the same path if the request is not a GET request. This is designed to make it easy to use where a POST request to a URL changes state, GET returns the current state, and you want to show the current state after changing:

r.is "foo" do
  r.get do
    # show state
  end

  r.post do
    # change state
    r.redirect
  end
end

# File 'lib/roda.rb', line 615

def redirect(path=default_redirect_path, status=302)
  response.redirect(path, status)
  throw :halt, response.finish
end

#response ⇒ Object

The response related to the current request. See ResponseMethods for instance methods for the response, but in general the most common usage is to override the response status and headers:

response.status = 200
response['Header-Name'] = 'Header value'



588

# File 'lib/roda.rb', line 588

def response
  scope.response
end

#root(&block) ⇒ Object

Routing matches that only matches GET requests where the current path is /. If it matches, the match block is executed, and when the match block returns, the rack response is returned.

[r.request_method, r.path_info]
# => ['GET', '/']

r.root do
  # matches
end

This is usuable inside other match blocks:

[r.request_method, r.path_info]
# => ['GET', '/foo/']

r.on 'foo' do
  r.root do
    # matches
  end
end

Note that this does not match non-GET requests:

[r.request_method, r.path_info]
# => ['POST', '/']

r.root do
  # does not match
end

Use r.post "" for POST requests where the current path is /.

Nor does it match empty paths:

[r.request_method, r.path_info]
# => ['GET', '/foo']

r.on 'foo' do
  r.root do
    # does not match
  end
end

Use r.get true to handle GET requests where the current path is empty.

end

#run(app) ⇒ Object

Call the given rack app with the environment and return the response from the rack app as the response for this request. This ends the processing of the request:

r.run(proc{[403, {}, []]}) unless r['letmein'] == '1'
r.run(proc{[404, {}, []]})
response.status = 404 # not reached
