ServerRequestInterface
interface ServerRequestInterface implements RequestInterface (View source)
Representation of an incoming, server-side HTTP request.
Per the HTTP specification, this interface includes properties for each of the following:
- Protocol version
- HTTP method
- URI
- Headers
- Message body
Additionally, it encapsulates all data as it has arrived to the application from the CGI and/or PHP environment, including:
- The values represented in $_SERVER.
- Any cookies provided (generally via $_COOKIE)
- Query string arguments (generally via $_GET, or as parsed via parse_str())
- Upload files, if any (as represented by $_FILES)
- Deserialized body parameters (generally from $_POST)
$_SERVER values MUST be treated as immutable, as they represent application state at the time of request; as such, no methods are provided to allow modification of those values. The other values provide such methods, as they can be restored from $_SERVER or the request body, and may need treatment during the application (e.g., body parameters may be deserialized based on content type).
Additionally, this interface recognizes the utility of introspecting a request to derive and match additional parameters (e.g., via URI path matching, decrypting cookie values, deserializing non-form-encoded body content, matching authorization headers to users, etc). These parameters are stored in an "attributes" property.
Requests are considered immutable; all methods that might change state MUST be implemented such that they retain the internal state of the current message and return an instance that contains the changed state.

string
getProtocolVersion()
Retrieves the HTTP protocol version as a string.
The string MUST contain only the HTTP version number (e.g., "1.1", "1.0").
in MessageInterface at line 41
MessageInterface
withProtocolVersion(string $version)
Return an instance with the specified HTTP protocol version.
The version string MUST contain only the HTTP version number (e.g., "1.1", "1.0").
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the new protocol version.
in MessageInterface at line 68
string[][]
getHeaders()
Retrieves all message header values.
The keys represent the header name as it will be sent over the wire, and each value is an array of strings associated with the header.
// Represent the headers as a string
foreach ($message->getHeaders() as $name => $values) {
echo $name . ": " . implode(", ", $values);
}
// Emit headers iteratively:
foreach ($message->getHeaders() as $name => $values) {
foreach ($values as $value) {
header(sprintf('%s: %s', $name, $value), false);
}
}
While header names are not case-sensitive, getHeaders() will preserve the exact case in which headers were originally specified.
in MessageInterface at line 78
bool
hasHeader(string $name)
Checks if a header exists by the given case-insensitive name.
in MessageInterface at line 94
string[]
getHeader(string $name)
Retrieves a message header value by the given case-insensitive name.
This method returns an array of all the header values of the given case-insensitive header name.
If the header does not appear in the message, this method MUST return an empty array.
in MessageInterface at line 115
string
getHeaderLine(string $name)
Retrieves a comma-separated string of the values for a single header.
This method returns all of the header values of the given case-insensitive header name as a string concatenated together using a comma.
NOTE: Not all header values may be appropriately represented using comma concatenation. For such headers, use getHeader() instead and supply your own delimiter when concatenating.
If the header does not appear in the message, this method MUST return an empty string.
in MessageInterface at line 132
MessageInterface
withHeader(string $name, string|string[] $value)
Return an instance with the provided value replacing the specified header.
While header names are case-insensitive, the casing of the header will be preserved by this function, and returned from getHeaders().
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the new and/or updated header and value.
in MessageInterface at line 150
MessageInterface
withAddedHeader(string $name, string|string[] $value)
Return an instance with the specified header appended with the given value.
Existing values for the specified header will be maintained. The new value(s) will be appended to the existing list. If the header did not exist previously, it will be added.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the new header and/or value.
in MessageInterface at line 164
MessageInterface
withoutHeader(string $name)
Return an instance without the specified header.
Header resolution MUST be done without case-sensitivity.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that removes the named header.
in MessageInterface at line 171
StreamInterface
getBody()
Gets the body of the message.
in MessageInterface at line 186
MessageInterface
withBody(StreamInterface $body)
Return an instance with the specified message body.
The body MUST be a StreamInterface object.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return a new instance that has the new body stream.
in RequestInterface at line 42
string
getRequestTarget()
Retrieves the message's request target.
Retrieves the message's request-target either as it will appear (for clients), as it appeared at request (for servers), or as it was specified for the instance (see withRequestTarget()).
In most cases, this will be the origin-form of the composed URI, unless a value was provided to the concrete implementation (see withRequestTarget() below).
If no URI is available, and no request-target has been specifically provided, this method MUST return the string "/".
in RequestInterface at line 61
RequestInterface
withRequestTarget(mixed $requestTarget)
Return an instance with the specific request-target.
If the request needs a non-origin-form request-target — e.g., for specifying an absolute-form, authority-form, or asterisk-form — this method may be used to create an instance with the specified request-target, verbatim.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the changed request target.
in RequestInterface at line 68
string
getMethod()
Retrieves the HTTP method of the request.
in RequestInterface at line 85
RequestInterface
withMethod(string $method)
Return an instance with the provided HTTP method.
While HTTP method names are typically all uppercase characters, HTTP method names are case-sensitive and thus implementations SHOULD NOT modify the given string.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the changed request method.
in RequestInterface at line 96
UriInterface
getUri()
Retrieves the URI instance.
This method MUST return a UriInterface instance.
in RequestInterface at line 128
RequestInterface
withUri(UriInterface $uri, bool $preserveHost = false)
Returns an instance with the provided URI.
This method MUST update the Host header of the returned request by default if the URI contains a host component. If the URI does not contain a host component, any pre-existing Host header MUST be carried over to the returned request.
You can opt-in to preserving the original state of the Host header by
setting $preserveHost
to true
. When $preserveHost
is set to
true
, this method interacts with the Host header in the following ways:
- If the Host header is missing or empty, and the new URI contains a host component, this method MUST update the Host header in the returned request.
- If the Host header is missing or empty, and the new URI does not contain a host component, this method MUST NOT update the Host header in the returned request.
- If a Host header is present and non-empty, this method MUST NOT update the Host header in the returned request.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the new UriInterface instance.

array
getServerParams()
Retrieve server parameters.
Retrieves data related to the incoming request environment, typically derived from PHP's $_SERVER superglobal. The data IS NOT REQUIRED to originate from $_SERVER.
at line 66
array
getCookieParams()
Retrieve cookies.
Retrieves cookies sent by the client to the server.
The data MUST be compatible with the structure of the $_COOKIE superglobal.
at line 85
ServerRequestInterface
withCookieParams(array $cookies)
Return an instance with the specified cookies.
The data IS NOT REQUIRED to come from the $_COOKIE superglobal, but MUST be compatible with the structure of $_COOKIE. Typically, this data will be injected at instantiation.
This method MUST NOT update the related Cookie header of the request instance, nor related values in the server params.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the updated cookie values.
at line 99
array
getQueryParams()
Retrieve query string arguments.
Retrieves the deserialized query string arguments, if any.
Note: the query params might not be in sync with the URI or server
params. If you need to ensure you are only getting the original
values, you may need to parse the query string from getUri()->getQuery()
or from the QUERY_STRING
server param.
at line 123
ServerRequestInterface
withQueryParams(array $query)
Return an instance with the specified query string arguments.
These values SHOULD remain immutable over the course of the incoming request. They MAY be injected during instantiation, such as from PHP's $_GET superglobal, or MAY be derived from some other value such as the URI. In cases where the arguments are parsed from the URI, the data MUST be compatible with what PHP's parse_str() would return for purposes of how duplicate query parameters are handled, and how nested sets are handled.
Setting query string arguments MUST NOT change the URI stored by the request, nor the values in the server params.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the updated query string arguments.
at line 137
array
getUploadedFiles()
Retrieve normalized file upload data.
This method returns upload metadata in a normalized tree, with each leaf an instance of Psr\Http\Message\UploadedFileInterface.
These values MAY be prepared from $_FILES or the message body during instantiation, or MAY be injected via withUploadedFiles().
at line 150
ServerRequestInterface
withUploadedFiles(array $uploadedFiles)
Create a new instance with the specified uploaded files.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the updated body parameters.
at line 167
null|array|object
getParsedBody()
Retrieve any parameters provided in the request body.
If the request Content-Type is either application/x-www-form-urlencoded or multipart/form-data, and the request method is POST, this method MUST return the contents of $_POST.
Otherwise, this method may return any results of deserializing the request body content; as parsing returns structured content, the potential types MUST be arrays or objects only. A null value indicates the absence of body content.
at line 197
ServerRequestInterface
withParsedBody(null|array|object $data)
Return an instance with the specified body parameters.
These MAY be injected during instantiation.
If the request Content-Type is either application/x-www-form-urlencoded or multipart/form-data, and the request method is POST, use this method ONLY to inject the contents of $_POST.
The data IS NOT REQUIRED to come from $_POST, but MUST be the results of deserializing the request body content. Deserialization/parsing returns structured data, and, as such, this method ONLY accepts arrays or objects, or a null value if nothing was available to parse.
As an example, if content negotiation determines that the request data is a JSON payload, this method could be used to create a request instance with the deserialized parameters.
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the updated body parameters.
at line 210
array
getAttributes()
Retrieve attributes derived from the request.
The request "attributes" may be used to allow injection of any parameters derived from the request: e.g., the results of path match operations; the results of decrypting cookies; the results of deserializing non-form-encoded message bodies; etc. Attributes will be application and request specific, and CAN be mutable.
at line 227
mixed
getAttribute(string $name, mixed $default = null)
Retrieve a single derived request attribute.
Retrieves a single derived request attribute as described in getAttributes(). If the attribute has not been previously set, returns the default value as provided.
This method obviates the need for a hasAttribute() method, as it allows specifying a default value to return if the attribute is not found.
at line 244
ServerRequestInterface
withAttribute(string $name, mixed $value)
Return an instance with the specified derived request attribute.
This method allows setting a single derived request attribute as described in getAttributes().
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the updated attribute.
at line 260
ServerRequestInterface
withoutAttribute(string $name)
Return an instance that removes the specified derived request attribute.
This method allows removing a single derived request attribute as described in getAttributes().
This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that removes the attribute.
