PHP ConnegP
===========

[](#php-connegp)

A library of functions for HTTP Content Negotiation by Profile ().

This code is online at .

All functions are in [src/functions.php](src/ConnegP.php) while [src/test\_functions.php](src/test_functions.php) contains unit tests for most of them. The functions are documented in place but basically serve the following 3 purposes:

1. supports the *list profiles* function
    - by creating a `Link` header with Alternate Representation information, as per the [HTTP *list profile*](https://w3c.github.io/dxwg/conneg-by-ap/#http-listprofiles) part of the ConnegP specification
    - see `make_header_list_profiles()`
2. supports returning a *Content-Profile* header
    - see `make_header_content_profile()`
    - requires that the URI of the profile that the returned representation conforms to has been calculated
3. supports *get resource by profile*
    - by assisting with parsing `Accept-Profile` HTTP request header: `get_profiles_requested()`
    - by checking if the requested profile matches a supported profile: `get_profile_to_return()`
    - same for Media Types: `get_mediatypes_requested()` & `get_mediatype_to_return()`
