To set or get any header, an object //! must implement the `Header` trait from this module. Several common headers //! are already provided, such as `Host`, `ContentType`, `UserAgent`, and others. //! //! # Why Typed? //! //! Or, why not stringly-typed? Types give the following advantages: //! //! - More difficult to typo, since typos in types should be caught by the compiler //! - Parsing to a proper type by default //! //! # Defining Custom Headers //! //! ## Implementing the `Header` trait //! //! Consider a Do Not Track header. It can be true or false, but it represents //! that via the numerals `1` and `0`. //! //! ``` //! extern crate http; //! extern crate headers; //! //! use headers::{Header, HeaderName, HeaderValue}; //! //! struct Dnt(bool); //! //! impl Header for Dnt { //! fn name() -> &'static HeaderName { //! &http::header::DNT //! } //! //! fn decode<'i, I>(values: &mut I) -> Result //! where //! I: Iterator, //! { //! let value = values //! .next() //! .ok_or_else(headers::Error::invalid)?; //! //! if value == "0" { //! Ok(Dnt(false)) //! } else if value == "1" { //! Ok(Dnt(true)) //! } else { //! Err(headers::Error::invalid()) //! } //! } //! //! fn encode(&self, values: &mut E) //! where //! E: Extend, //! { //! let s = if self.0 { //! "1" //! } else { //! "0" //! }; //! //! let value = HeaderValue::from_static(s); //! //! values.extend(std::iter::once(value)); //! } //! } //! ``` extern crate base64; #[macro_use] extern crate bitflags; extern crate bytes; extern crate headers_core; extern crate http; extern crate httpdate; extern crate mime; extern crate sha1; #[cfg(all(test, feature = "nightly"))] extern crate test; pub use headers_core::{Error, Header}; #[doc(hidden)] pub use http::HeaderMap; #[doc(hidden)] pub use http::header::{HeaderName, HeaderValue}; #[macro_use] mod util; mod common; mod map_ext; pub use self::common::*; pub use self::map_ext::HeaderMapExt;
