Validation and interpretation based on **RFC 7231, section 5.3.1 and 5.3.2**. Conversion of the list of media types to ordered Laravel Collections (by priority, according to RFC). Features -------- [](#features) - Validation: Validates if Accept Header content is valid, according to specification; - Conversion: Converts the list of media types to a Laravel Collection (automatically sorted by priority according to specification); Installation ------------ [](#installation) `composer require ejetar/accept-header-interpreter` Examples -------- [](#examples) ### First Example: Entering *valid* content [](#first-example-entering-valid-content) ``` use Ejetar\AcceptHeaderInterpreter\AcceptHeaderInterpreter; try { $content = request()->headers->get('Accept'); //return accept header content //let's assume that $content is now: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,image/apng,*/*;q=0.8 $acceptHeaderInterpreter = new AcceptHeaderInterpreter($content); dd($acceptHeaderInterpreter->toCollection()); } catch (\Exception $ex) { echo $ex->getMessage(); } /* the code above will print Collection {#756 ▼ #items: array:6 [▼ 0 => array:3 [▼ "type" => "text" "subtype" => "html" "parameters" => array:1 [▼ "q" => 1 ] ] 1 => array:3 [▼ "type" => "application" "subtype" => "xhtml+xml" "parameters" => array:1 [▼ "q" => 1 ] ] 3 => array:3 [▼ "type" => "image" "subtype" => "webp" "parameters" => array:1 [▼ "q" => 1 ] ] 4 => array:3 [▼ "type" => "image" "subtype" => "apng" "parameters" => array:1 [▼ "q" => 1 ] ] 2 => array:3 [▼ "type" => "application" "subtype" => "xml" "parameters" => array:1 [▼ "q" => "0.9" ] ] 5 => array:3 [▼ "type" => "*" "subtype" => "*" "parameters" => array:1 [▼ "q" => "0.8" ] ] ] } REALIZE THAT THE ORDER OF MEDIA TYPES HAS BEEN MODIFIED */ ``` ### Second Example: Entering *invalid* content [](#second-example-entering-invalid-content) ``` use Ejetar\AcceptHeaderInterpreter\AcceptHeaderInterpreter; try { $content = request()->headers->get('Accept'); //return accept header content //let's assume that $content is now: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=1.1,image/webp,image/apng,*/*;q=0.8 //It is only allowed to inform values from 0 to 1 for the parameter Q, that is, the contents of this Accept Header is invalid $acceptHeaderInterpreter = new AcceptHeaderInterpreter($content); dd($acceptHeaderInterpreter->toCollection()); } catch (\Exception $ex) { echo $ex->getMessage(); } /* the code above will print Accept header value is invalid! */ ``` ### Third Example: Priority [](#third-example-priority) ``` use Ejetar\AcceptHeaderInterpreter\AcceptHeaderInterpreter; try { $content = request()->headers->get('Accept'); //return accept header content //let's assume that $content is now: */*, application/*, text/html, application/xhtml+xml $acceptHeaderInterpreter = new AcceptHeaderInterpreter($content); dd($acceptHeaderInterpreter->toCollection()); } catch (\Exception $ex) { echo $ex->getMessage(); } /* the code above will print Collection {#756 ▼ #items: array:4 [▼ 2 => array:3 [▼ "type" => " text" "subtype" => "html" "parameters" => array:1 [▼ "q" => 1 ] ] 3 => array:3 [▼ "type" => " application" "subtype" => "xhtml+xml" "parameters" => array:1 [▼ "q" => 1 ] ] 1 => array:3 [▼ "type" => " application" "subtype" => "*" "parameters" => array:1 [▼ "q" => 1 ] ] 0 => array:3 [▼ "type" => "*" "subtype" => "*" "parameters" => array:1 [▼ "q" => 1 ] ] ] } NOTE THAT ORDER OF THE MEDIA TYPES IS NO LONGER THE SAME, IT WAS MODIFIED AS A PRIORITY, ACCORDING TO THE SPECIFICATION. */ ``` ### Fourth Example: Displaying the original content of the Accept Header [](#fourth-example-displaying-the-original-content-of-the-accept-header) ``` use Ejetar\AcceptHeaderInterpreter\AcceptHeaderInterpreter; try { $content = request()->headers->get('Accept'); //return accept header content //let's assume that $content is now: application/json $acceptHeaderInterpreter = new AcceptHeaderInterpreter($content); echo $acceptHeaderInterpreter->getOriginalContent(); } catch (\Exception $ex) { echo $ex->getMessage(); } /* the code above will print application/json */ ``` Changelog --------- [](#changelog) Nothing for now...
