The package provides:

- Constants for HTTP protocol headers, methods and statuses. All along with short descriptions and RFC links.
- PSR-7, PSR-17 PhpStorm meta for HTTP protocol headers, methods and statuses.
- `ContentDispositionHeader` that has static methods to generate `Content-Disposition` header name and value.
- `HeaderValueHelper` that has static methods to parse the header value parameters.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 7.4 - 8.5.
- `mbstring` PHP extension.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

The package could be installed with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org):

```
composer require yiisoft/http
```

Method constants
----------------

[](#method-constants)

Individual HTTP methods could be referenced as

```
use Yiisoft\Http\Method;

Method::GET;
Method::POST;
Method::PUT;
Method::DELETE;
Method::PATCH;
Method::HEAD;
Method::OPTIONS;
```

To have a list of these, use:

```
use Yiisoft\Http\Method;

Method::ALL;
```

HTTP status codes
-----------------

[](#http-status-codes)

Status codes could be referenced by name as:

```
use Yiisoft\Http\Status;

Status::NOT_FOUND;
```

Status text could be obtained as the following:

```
use Yiisoft\Http\Status;

Status::TEXTS[Status::NOT_FOUND];
```

`ContentDispositionHeader` usage
--------------------------------

[](#contentdispositionheader-usage)

`ContentDispositionHeader` methods are static so usage is like the following:

```
use Yiisoft\Http\ContentDispositionHeader;

$name = ContentDispositionHeader::name();

$value = ContentDispositionHeader::value(
    ContentDispositionHeader::INLINE,
    'avatar.png',
);

$value = ContentDispositionHeader::inline('document.pdf');

$value = ContentDispositionHeader::attachment('document.pdf');
```

`HeaderValueHelper` usage
-------------------------

[](#headervaluehelper-usage)

`HeaderValueHelper` provides the following static methods:

```
use Yiisoft\Http\HeaderValueHelper;

// Result: ['a' => '1', 'b' => '2']
HeaderValueHelper::getParameters('a=1;b=2');

// Result: ['value', 'a' => '1', 'b' => '2']
HeaderValueHelper::getValueAndParameters('value;a=1;b=2'));

// Result: [['value2', 'q' => 1.0], ['value1', 'q' => 0.2]]
HeaderValueHelper::getSortedValueAndParameters('value1;q=0.2,value2'));

// Result: ['text/xml', 'text/html']
HeaderValueHelper::getSortedAcceptTypes('text/html;q=0.2,text/xml;q=0.4'));
```

PSR-7 and PSR-17 PhpStorm meta
------------------------------

[](#psr-7-and-psr-17-phpstorm-meta)

The package includes PhpStorm meta-files that help IDE to provide values when completing code in cases such as:

```
use Psr\Http\Message\ResponseFactoryInterface;
use Psr\Http\Message\ResponseInterface;
use Yiisoft\Http\Header;
use Yiisoft\Http\Status;

class StaticController
{
    private ResponseFactoryInterface $responseFactory;

    public function actionIndex(): ResponseInterface
    {
        return $this->responseFactory
            ->createResponse()
            ->withStatus(Status::OK)
            ->withoutHeader(Header::ACCEPT);
    }
}
```
