Instantiation

An HTTP response is represented with the help of the Opis\Http\Response class, or by using a class that inherits from the Opis\Http\Response class. The constructor of the class has the following signature.

public function __construct(
    int $statusCode = 200, 
    array $headers = [], 
    \Opis\Stream\IStream $body = null, 
    string $protocolVersion = '1.1'
);

• $statusCode - response status code
• $headers - a key-value mapped array of headers, where the key represents the header’s name and the value represents the actual value of the header
• $body - the response body, if any
• $protocolVersion - the protocol version number

Immutability

By default, all response instances are designed to be immutable. This design choice was made in order to prevent an HTTP response for being unintentionally modified. If you want to modify the response (e.g. add a cookie), then you must use the modify method. This method returns a cloned version of the original response object, that reflects the changes you’ve made.

use Opis\Http\Response;

// ..

$response = $response->modify(function(Response $response){
    // add headers, set status code, add new cookies, etc.
});

Adding new headers

Adding a new header is done with the help of the setHeader method. Because of the immutable nature of the response object, trying to call this method directly, will result into an exception being thrown. Instead, you must use the modify method.

// will throw exception
$response->setHeader('X-Foo', 'Bar');

// The right way to do it
$response = $response->modify(function(Response $response){
    $response->setHeader('X-Foo', 'Bar');
    $response->setHeader('X-Bar', 'Baz');
});

Setting multiple headers at the same time can be accomplished by using the addHeaders method.

$response = $response->modify(function(Response $response){
    $response->addHeaders([
        'X-Foo' => 'Bar',
        'X-Bar' => 'Baz',
    ]);
});

Cookies

Setting a new cookie is done with the help of the setCookie method.

$resposne = $response->modify(function(Response $response){
    // set a cookie named 'foo', having a value 'bar'
    $response->setCookie('foo', 'bar');
});

The better explain the setCookie method, let’s analise its signature.

public function setCookie(
    string $name,
    string $value = '',
    int $expire = 0,
    string $path = '',
    string $domain = '',
    bool $secure = false,
    bool $http_only = false
): self;

• $name - the name of the cookie
• $value - the value of the cookie
• $expire - a UNIX timestamp that tells when this cookie is set to expire.
• $path - tells on which path this cookie is valid
• $domain -
• $secure -
• $http_only -

Getting the full list of cookies is done by calling the getCookies method.

$cookeis = $response->getCookies();

Reading an individual cookie is done by using the getCookie method. You can specify a custom path or domain on which the cookie was set.

if ($response->getCookie('foo')) {
    // do something
}

if ($response->getCookie('foo', '/some/path/')) {
    // do something
}

if ($response->getCookie('foo', '', 'www.domain.com')) {
    // do something
}

if ($response->getCookie('foo', '/some/path/', 'www.domain.com')) {
    // do something
}

If you want to check if a cookie was set or not, simply use the hasCookie method. You can optionally specify a domain and a path, and check if a cookie was set for the specified domain and path.

if ($response->hasCookie('foo')) {
    // do something
}

if ($response->hasCookie('foo', '/some/path/')) {
    // do something
}

if ($response->hasCookie('foo', '', 'www.domain.com')) {
    // do something
}

if ($response->hasCookie('foo', '/some/path/', 'www.domain.com')) {
    // do something
}

Removing a cookie is done by using the clearCookie method.

$response = $response->modify(function(Response $response){
    $response->clearCookie('foo');
    $response->clearCookie('foo', '/some/path/');
    $response->clearCookie('foo', '', 'www.domain.com');
    $response->clearCookie('foo', '/some/path/', 'www.domain.com');
});

You can remove all cookies by using the clearCookies method;

$response = $response->modify(function(Response $response){
    $response->clearCookies();
});

Miscellaneous

You can set the response body by calling the setBody method.

$response = $response->modify(function(Response $response){
    $response->setBody(null);
    // or
    $response->setBody(new \Opis\Stream\Stream("php://temp", "wb+"));
});

You can modify the protocol version number by calling the setProtocolVersion method.

$response = $response->modify(function(Response $response){
    $response->setProtocolVersion('1.0');
});

Modifying the response status code is done by using the setStatusCode method. You can read the current status code with the help of the getStatusCode method.

$code = $response->getStatusCode();

$response = $response->modify(function(Response $response){
    $response->setStatusCode(200);
});
