Methods

  • Decode request using decoder stored at HBApplication.decoder.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func decode<Type>(as type: Type.Type) throws -> Type where Type : Decodable

    Parameters

    type

    Type you want to decode to

  • Return failed EventLoopFuture

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func failure<T>(_ error: Error) -> EventLoopFuture<T>

  • Return failed EventLoopFuture with http response status code

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func failure<T>(_ status: HTTPResponseStatus) -> EventLoopFuture<T>

  • Return failed EventLoopFuture with http response status code and message

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func failure<T>(_ status: HTTPResponseStatus, message: String) -> EventLoopFuture<T>

  • Return succeeded EventLoopFuture

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func success<T>(_ value: T) -> EventLoopFuture<T>

EventLoopStorage

  • Access extension data associated with the EventLoop used by this Request

    Declaration

    Swift

    public var eventLoopStorage: HBApplication.EventLoopStorage { get }

Response patching

  • Patches Response via HBResponse.apply(patch:)

    Allow you to patch the response generated by your route handler via the HBRequest supplied. If your handler is only returning the payload you can edit the status and headers via request.response eg.

    func myHandler(_ request: HBRequest) -> String {
    request.response.status = .accepted
    return "hello"
}

    Declaration

    Swift

    public final class ResponsePatch

  • Allows you to edit the status and headers of the response.

    HBRequest.response is only available within route handlers that have had the option .editResponse. Trying to access it outside of one of these will cause the application to crash

    Declaration

    Swift

    public var response: ResponsePatch { get set }

  • return ResponsePatch only if it exists. Used internally

    Declaration

    Swift

    var optionalResponse: ResponsePatch? { get }

  • Undocumented

    Declaration

    Swift

    public struct Persist

  • Accessor for persist framework

    Declaration

    Swift

    public var persist: HBRequest.Persist { get }
