Overview

Represents the header fields of an HTTP message. To access a field you can use ‘#[]` and `#[]=`. For example, to get the content type of a response you can do

response.header['Content-Type']  # => "application/xml"

Lookups and modifications done in this way are case insensitive, so ‘Content-Type’, ‘content-type’ and :content_type are all equivalent.

Multi-valued fields

Multi-value fields (e.g. Accept) are always returned as an Array regardless of the number of values, if the field is present. Single-value fields (e.g. Content-Type) are always returned as strings. The multi/single valueness of a header field is determined by the way it is defined in the HTTP spec. Unknown fields are treated as multi-valued.

(This behavior is new in 0.6 and may be slightly incompatible with the way previous versions worked in some situations.)

For example

h = Resourceful::Header.new
h['Accept'] = "application/xml"
h['Accept']                      # => ["application/xml"]
