Function Details

content_disposition/1

content_disposition(Data::binary()) -> disposition()

Parse a content disposition.

content_type/1

content_type(Data::binary()) -> any()

Parse a content type.

We lowercase the charset header as we know it's case insensitive.

delete/2

delete(Key, Headers) -> any()

Delete the header corresponding to key if it is present.

fold/3

fold(Fun, Acc0, Headers) -> any()

fold the list of headers

get_value/2

get_value(Key, Headers) -> any()

get the value of the header

get_value/3

get_value(Key, Headers, Default) -> any()

header_value/2

header_value(Value, Params) -> any()

join value and params in a binary

insert/3

insert(Key, Value, Headers) -> any()

Insert the pair into the headers, merging with any pre-existing key. A merge is done with Value = V0 ++ ", " ++ V1.

insert/4

insert(Key, Value, Params, Headers) -> any()

same as insert/3 but allows to add params to the header value.

make_header/2

make_header(Name, Value) -> any()

Create a binary header

make_header/3

make_header(Name, Value, Params) -> any()

new/0

new() -> headers()

initialise an header dict

new/1

new(D::list()) -> headers()

parse/2

parse(Name::binary(), Headers::list() | headers()) -> any() | undefined | {error, badarg}

Semantically parse headers.

When the value isn't found, a proper default value for the type returned is used as a return value.

See also: parse/3.

store/3

store(Key, Value, Headers) -> any()

store the pair into the headers, replacing any pre-existing key.

to_binary/1

to_binary(Headers) -> any()

return all the headers as a binary that can be sent over the wire.

to_list/1

to_list(Headers) -> any()

update/2

update(Headers, KVs) -> any()

extend the headers with a new list of {Key, Value} pair.
