=head1 NAME
HTTP::Headers::Util - Header value parsing utility functions
=head1 VERSION
version 6.18
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use HTTP::Headers::Util qw(split_header_words);
@values = split_header_words($h->header("Content-Type"));
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module provides a few functions that helps parsing and
construction of valid HTTP header values. None of the functions are
exported by default.
The following functions are available:
=over 4
=item split_header_words( @header_values )
This function will parse the header values given as argument into a
list of anonymous arrays containing key/value pairs. The function
knows how to deal with ",", ";" and "=" as well as quoted values after
"=". A list of space separated tokens are parsed as if they were
separated by ";".
If the @header_values passed as argument contains multiple values,
then they are treated as if they were a single value separated by
comma ",".
This means that this function is useful for parsing header fields that
follow this syntax (BNF as from the HTTP/1.1 specification, but we relax
the requirement for tokens).
headers = #header
header = (token | parameter) *( [";"] (token | parameter))
token = 1*<any CHAR except CTLs or separators>
separators = "(" | ")" | "<" | ">" | "@"
| "," | ";" | ":" | "\" | <">
| "/" | "[" | "]" | "?" | "="
| "{" | "}" | SP | HT
quoted-string = ( <"> *(qdtext | quoted-pair ) <"> )
qdtext = <any TEXT except <">>
quoted-pair = "\" CHAR
parameter = attribute "=" value
attribute = token
value = token | quoted-string
Each I<header> is represented by an anonymous array of key/value
pairs. The keys will be all be forced to lower case.
The value for a simple token (not part of a parameter) is C<undef>.
Syntactically incorrect headers will not necessarily be parsed as you
would want.
This is easier to describe with some examples:
split_header_words('foo="bar"; port="80,81"; DISCARD, BAR=baz');
split_header_words('text/html; charset="iso-8859-1"');
split_header_words('Basic realm="\\"foo\\\\bar\\""');
will return
[foo=>'bar', port=>'80,81', discard=> undef], [bar=>'baz' ]
['text/html' => undef, charset => 'iso-8859-1']
[basic => undef, realm => "\"foo\\bar\""]
If you don't want the function to convert tokens and attribute keys to
lower case you can call it as C<_split_header_words> instead (with a
leading underscore).
=item join_header_words( @arrays )
This will do the opposite of the conversion done by split_header_words().
It takes a list of anonymous arrays as arguments (or a list of
key/value pairs) and produces a single header value. Attribute values
are quoted if needed.
Example:
join_header_words(["text/plain" => undef, charset => "iso-8859/1"]);
join_header_words("text/plain" => undef, charset => "iso-8859/1");
will both return the string:
text/plain; charset="iso-8859/1"
