RequestInterface
Uses
MessageImplementation, RequestImplementation
A PSR-7 HTTP request message for Horde
The RequestInterface is supposed to be used by a client making a request. When processing an incoming request on the server, use ServerRequest.
Per the HTTP specification, this interface includes properties for each of the following:
- Protocol version
- HTTP method
- URI
- Headers
- Message body
During construction, implementations MUST attempt to set the Host header from a provided URI if no Host header is provided.
Requests are considered immutable; all methods that might change state MUST be implemented such that they retain the internal state of the current message and return an instance that contains the changed state.

Return values
mixed —getBody()
Gets the body of the message.
public
getBody() : StreamInterface
Return values
StreamInterface —Returns the body as a stream.
getHeader()
Retrieves a message header value by the given case-insensitive name.
public
getHeader(string $name) : array<string|int, string>
This method returns an array of all the header values of the given case-insensitive header name.
If the header does not appear in the message, this method MUST return an empty array.
Parameters
- $name : string
-
Case-insensitive header field name.
Return values
array<string|int, string> —An array of string values as provided for the given header. If the header does not appear in the message, this method MUST return an empty array.
getHeaderLine()
Retrieves a comma-separated string of the values for a single header.
public
getHeaderLine(string $name) : string
This method returns all of the header values of the given case-insensitive header name as a string concatenated together using a comma.
NOTE: Not all header values may be appropriately represented using comma concatenation. For such headers, use getHeader() instead and supply your own delimiter when concatenating.
If the header does not appear in the message, this method MUST return an empty string.
Parameters
- $name : string
-
Case-insensitive header field name.
Return values
string —A string of values as provided for the given header concatenated together using a comma. If the header does not appear in the message, this method MUST return an empty string.
getHeaders()
Retrieves all message header values.
public
getHeaders() : array<string|int, array<string|int, string>>
The keys represent the header name as it will be sent over the wire, and each value is an array of strings associated with the header.
// Represent the headers as a string
foreach ($message->getHeaders() as $name => $values) {
echo $name . ": " . implode(", ", $values);
}
// Emit headers iteratively:
foreach ($message->getHeaders() as $name => $values) {
foreach ($values as $value) {
header(sprintf('%s: %s', $name, $value), false);
}
}
While header names are not case-sensitive, getHeaders() will preserve the exact case in which headers were originally specified.
Return values
array<string|int, array<string|int, string>> —Returns an associative array of the message's headers. Each key MUST be a header name, and each value MUST be an array of strings for that header.
getMethod()
Retrieves the HTTP method of the request.
public
getMethod() : string
Return values
string —Returns the request method.
getProtocolVersion()
Retrieves the HTTP protocol version as a string.
public
getProtocolVersion() : string
The string MUST contain only the HTTP version number (e.g., "1.1", "1.0").
Return values
string —HTTP protocol version.
getRequestTarget()
Retrieves the message's request target.
public
getRequestTarget() : string
Retrieves the message's request-target either as it will appear (for clients), as it appeared at request (for servers), or as it was specified for the instance (see withRequestTarget()).
In most cases, this will be the origin-form of the composed URI, unless a value was provided to the concrete implementation (see withRequestTarget() below).
If no URI is available, and no request-target has been specifically provided, this method MUST return the string "/".
Return values
string —getUri()
Retrieves the URI instance.
public
getUri() : UriInterface
This method MUST return a UriInterface instance.
Tags
Return values
UriInterface —Returns a UriInterface instance representing the URI of the request.
hasHeader()
Checks if a header exists by the given case-insensitive name.
public
hasHeader(string $name) : bool
Parameters
- $name : string
-
Case-insensitive header field name.
Return values
bool —Returns true if any header names match the given header name using a case-insensitive string comparison. Returns false if no matching header name is found in the message.
withAddedHeader()
Return an instance with the specified header appended with the given value.
public
withAddedHeader(string $name, string|array<string|int, string> $value) : static
Existing values for the specified header will be maintained. The new value(s) will be appended to the existing list. If the header did not exist previously, it will be added.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the new header and/or value.
Parameters
- $name : string
-
Case-insensitive header field name to add.
- $value : string|array<string|int, string>
-
Header value(s).
Tags
Return values
static —withBody()
Return an instance with the specified message body.
public
withBody(StreamInterface $body) : static

This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return a new instance that has the new body stream.
Parameters
- $body : StreamInterface
-
Body.
Tags
Return values
static —withHeader()
Return an instance with the provided value replacing the specified header.
public
withHeader(string $name, string|array<string|int, string> $value) : static
While header names are case-insensitive, the casing of the header will be preserved by this function, and returned from getHeaders().
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the new and/or updated header and value.
Parameters
- $name : string
-
Case-insensitive header field name.
- $value : string|array<string|int, string>
-
Header value(s).
Tags
Return values
static —withMethod()
Return an instance with the provided HTTP method.
public
withMethod(string $method) : static
While HTTP method names are typically all uppercase characters, HTTP method names are case-sensitive and thus implementations SHOULD NOT modify the given string.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the changed request method.
Parameters
- $method : string
-
Case-sensitive method.
Tags
Return values
static —withoutHeader()
Return an instance without the specified header.
public
withoutHeader(string $name) : static
Header resolution MUST be done without case-sensitivity.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that removes the named header.
Parameters
- $name : string
-
Case-insensitive header field name to remove.
Return values
static —withProtocolVersion()
Return an instance with the specified HTTP protocol version.
public
withProtocolVersion(string $version) : static
The version string MUST contain only the HTTP version number (e.g., "1.1", "1.0").
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the new protocol version.
Parameters
- $version : string
-
HTTP protocol version
Return values
static —withRequestTarget()
Return an instance with the specific request-target.
public
withRequestTarget(mixed $requestTarget) : static
If the request needs a non-origin-form request-target — e.g., for specifying an absolute-form, authority-form, or asterisk-form — this method may be used to create an instance with the specified request-target, verbatim.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the changed request target.
Parameters
- $requestTarget : mixed
Tags
Return values
static —withUri()
Returns an instance with the provided URI.
public
withUri(UriInterface $uri[, bool $preserveHost = false ]) : static
This method MUST update the Host header of the returned request by default if the URI contains a host component. If the URI does not contain a host component, any pre-existing Host header MUST be carried over to the returned request.
You can opt-in to preserving the original state of the Host header by
setting $preserveHost to true. When $preserveHost is set to
true, this method interacts with the Host header in the following ways:
- If the Host header is missing or empty, and the new URI contains a host component, this method MUST update the Host header in the returned request.
- If the Host header is missing or empty, and the new URI does not contain a host component, this method MUST NOT update the Host header in the returned request.
- If a Host header is present and non-empty, this method MUST NOT update the Host header in the returned request.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the new UriInterface instance.
Parameters
- $uri : UriInterface
-
New request URI to use.
- $preserveHost : bool = false
-
Preserve the original state of the Host header.
