NAME¶
HTTP::Headers::ActionPack::MediaType - A Media Type
VERSION¶
version 0.09
SYNOPSIS¶
use HTTP::Headers::ActionPack::MediaType; # normal constructor my $mt = HTTP::Headers::ActionPack::MediaType->new( 'application/xml' => ( 'q' => 0.5, 'charset' => 'UTF-8' ) ); # construct from string my $mt = HTTP::Headers::ActionPack::MediaType->new_from_string( 'application/xml; q=0.5; charset=UTF-8' );
DESCRIPTION¶
This is an object which represents an HTTP media type definition. This is most often found as a member of a HTTP::Headers::ActionPack::MediaTypeList object.
METHODS¶
- "type"
- Accessor for the type.
- "major"
- The major portion of the media type name.
- "minor"
- The minor portion of the media type name.
- "matches_all"
- A media type matched all if the type is "*/*" and if it has no parameters.
- "equals ( $media_type | $media_type_string )"
- This will attempt to determine if the $media_type
is exactly the same as itself. If given a
$media_type_string it will parse it into an
object.
In order for two type to be equal, the types must match exactly and the parameters much match exactly.
- "exact_match ( $media_type | $media_type_string )"
- This will attempt to determine if the $media_type
is a match with itself using the
"type_matches" method below. If given a
$media_type_string it will parse it into an
object.
In order for an exact match to occur it the types must be compatible and the parameters much match exactly.
- "match ( $media_type | $media_type_string )"
- This will attempt to determine if the $media_type
is a match with itself using the
"type_matches" method and
"params_match" method below. If given a
$media_type_string it will parse it into an
object.
In order for an exact match to occur it the types must be compatible and the parameters must be a subset.
- "type_matches ( $media_type | $media_type_string )"
- This will determine type compatibility, properly handling the "*" types and major and minor elements of the type.
- "params_match ( $parameters )"
- This determines if the $parameters are a subset of the invocants parameters.
