#form_data?Boolean

Determine whether the request body contains form-data by checking the request ‘Content-Type` for one of the media-types: `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` or `multipart/form-data`. The list of form-data media types can be modified through the `FORM_DATA_MEDIA_TYPES` array.

A request body is not assumed to contain form-data when no ‘Content-Type` header is provided and the request_method is POST.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

#request_idObject Also known as: uuid

Returns the unique request id, which is based on either the ‘X-Request-Id` header that can be generated by a firewall, load balancer, or web server, or by the RequestId middleware (which sets the `action_dispatch.request_id` environment variable).

This unique ID is useful for tracing a request from end-to-end as part of logging or debugging. This relies on the Rack variable set by the ActionDispatch::RequestId middleware.

Returns the HTTP method that the application should see.

#send_early_hints(links) ⇒ Object

Early Hints is an HTTP/2 status code that indicates hints to help a client start making preparations for processing the final response.

If the env contains ‘rack.early_hints` then the server accepts HTTP2 push for link headers.

The ‘send_early_hints` method accepts a hash of links as follows:

send_early_hints("link" => "</style.css>; rel=preload; as=style,</script.js>; rel=preload")

If you are using ‘javascript_include_tag` or `stylesheet_link_tag` the Early Hints headers are included by default if supported.
