Specs
chunk(payload(), body :: Plug.Conn.body()) :: :ok | {:ok, sent_body :: binary(), payload()} | {:error, term()}
Sends a chunk in the chunked response.
If the request has method "HEAD"
, the adapter should
not send the response to the client.
Webservers are advised to return :ok
and not modify
any further state for each chunk. However, the test
implementation returns the actual body and payload so
it can be used during testing.
Specs
get_http_protocol(payload()) :: http_protocol()
Returns the HTTP protocol and its version.
Specs
Returns peer information such as the address, port and ssl cert.
Specs
inform(payload(), status :: Plug.Conn.status(), headers :: Keyword.t()) :: :ok | {:error, term()}
Send an informational response to the client.
If the adapter does not support inform, then {:error, :not_supported}
should be returned.
Specs
Push a resource to the client.
If the adapter does not support server push then {:error, :not_supported}
should be returned.
Specs
read_req_body(payload(), options :: Keyword.t()) :: {:ok, data :: binary(), payload()} | {:more, data :: binary(), payload()} | {:error, term()}
Reads the request body.
Read the docs in Plug.Conn.read_body/2
for the supported
options and expected behaviour.
Specs
send_chunked( payload(), status :: Plug.Conn.status(), headers :: Plug.Conn.headers() ) :: {:ok, sent_body :: binary() | nil, payload()}
Sends the given status, headers as the beginning of a chunked response to the client.
Webservers are advised to return nil
as the sent_body,
as the body can no longer be manipulated. However, the
test implementation returns the actual body so it can
be used during testing.
Specs
send_file( payload(), status :: Plug.Conn.status(), headers :: Plug.Conn.headers(), file :: binary(), offset :: integer(), length :: integer() | :all ) :: {:ok, sent_body :: binary() | nil, payload()}
Sends the given status, headers and file as a response back to the client.
If the request has method "HEAD"
, the adapter should
not send the response to the client.
Webservers are advised to return nil
as the sent_body,
as the body can no longer be manipulated. However, the
test implementation returns the actual body so it can
be used during testing.
Specs
send_resp( payload(), status :: Plug.Conn.status(), headers :: Plug.Conn.headers(), body :: Plug.Conn.body() ) :: {:ok, sent_body :: binary() | nil, payload()}
Sends the given status, headers and body as a response back to the client.
If the request has method "HEAD"
, the adapter should
not send the response to the client.
Webservers are advised to return nil
as the sent_body,
as the body can no longer be manipulated. However, the
test implementation returns the actual body so it can
