Instance Attribute Details

#form_data?Boolean (readonly)

Determine whether the request body contains form-data by checking the request Content-Type for one of the media-types: application/x-www-form-urlencoded or multipart/form-data. The list of form-data media types can be modified through the FORM_DATA_MEDIA_TYPES array.

A request body is not assumed to contain form-data when no Content-Type header is provided and the request_method is #POST.

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/request.rb', line 366

def form_data?
  FORM_DATA_MEDIA_TYPES.include?(media_type)
end

#ignore_accept_header (rw)

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/mime_negotiation.rb', line 18

mattr_accessor :ignore_accept_header, default: false

#local?Boolean (readonly)

True if the request came from localhost, 127.0.0.1, or ::1.

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/request.rb', line 428

def local?
  LOCALHOST.match?(remote_addr) && LOCALHOST.match?(remote_ip)
end

#remote_ip (rw)

Returns the IP address of client as a ::String, usually set by the RemoteIp middleware.

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/request.rb', line 306

def remote_ip
  @remote_ip ||= (get_header("action_dispatch.remote_ip") || ip).to_s
end

def remote_ip=(remote_ip)
  @remote_ip = nil
  set_header "action_dispatch.remote_ip", remote_ip
end

#request_id (rw) Also known as: #uuid

Returns the unique request id, which is based on either the X-Request-Id header that can be generated by a firewall, load balancer, or web server, or by the RequestId middleware (which sets the action_dispatch.request_id environment variable).

This unique ID is useful for tracing a request from end-to-end as part of logging or debugging. This relies on the ::Rack variable set by the RequestId middleware.

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/request.rb', line 323

def request_id
  get_header ACTION_DISPATCH_REQUEST_ID
end

#request_method (rw)

Returns the HTTP method that the application should see. In the case where the method was overridden by a middleware (for instance, if a HEAD request was converted to a #GET, or if a _method parameter was used to determine the method the application should use), this method returns the overridden value, not the original.

[ GitHub ]

#xml_http_request?Boolean (readonly) Also known as: #xhr?

Returns true if the X-Requested-With header contains “XMLHttpRequest” (case-insensitive), which may need to be manually added depending on the choice of JavaScript libraries and frameworks.

[ GitHub ]

#send_early_hints(links)

Early Hints is an HTTP/2 status code that indicates hints to help a client start making preparations for processing the final response.

The send_early_hints method accepts a hash of links as follows:

send_early_hints("link" => "</style.css>; rel=preload; as=style,</script.js>; rel=preload")

If you are using javascript_include_tag or stylesheet_link_tag the Early Hints headers are included by default if supported.
