Available since version2.0
Source Code https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/web/Request.php

The web Request class represents an HTTP request.

It encapsulates the $_SERVER variable and resolves its inconsistency among different Web servers. Also it provides an interface to retrieve request parameters from $_POST, $_GET, $_COOKIES and REST parameters sent via other HTTP methods like PUT or DELETE.

Request is configured as an application component in yii\web\Application by default. You can access that instance via Yii::$app->request.

For more details and usage information on Request, see the guide article on requests.

A secret key used for cookie validation. This property must be set if $enableCookieValidation is true.

$cookies public property

The cookie collection.

$csrfCookie public property

The configuration for creating the CSRF cookie. This property is used only when both $enableCsrfValidation and $enableCsrfCookie are true.

public array $csrfCookie = [
    
'httpOnly' => true,
]

The entity tags.

public array $eTags null
$enableCookieValidation public property

Whether cookies should be validated to ensure they are not tampered. Defaults to true.

$enableCsrfCookie public property

Whether to use cookie to persist CSRF token. If false, CSRF token will be stored in session under the name of $csrfParam. Note that while storing CSRF tokens in session increases security, it requires starting a session for every page, which will degrade your site performance.

public boolean $enableCsrfCookie true
$enableCsrfValidation public property

Whether to enable CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) validation. Defaults to true. When CSRF validation is enabled, forms submitted to an Yii Web application must be originated from the same application. If not, a 400 HTTP exception will be raised.

Note, this feature requires that the user client accepts cookie. Also, to use this feature, forms submitted via POST method must contain a hidden input whose name is specified by $csrfParam. You may use yii\helpers\Html::beginForm() to generate his hidden input.

In JavaScript, you may get the values of $csrfParam and $csrfToken via yii.getCsrfParam() and yii.getCsrfToken(), respectively. The yii\web\YiiAsset asset must be registered. You also need to include CSRF meta tags in your pages by using yii\helpers\Html::csrfMetaTags().

The parsers for converting the raw HTTP request body into $bodyParams. The array keys are the request Content-Types, and the array values are the corresponding configurations for creating the parser objects. A parser must implement the yii\web\RequestParserInterface.

To enable parsing for JSON requests you can use the yii\web\JsonParser class like in the following example:

[
    'application/json' => 'yii\web\JsonParser',
]

Lists of headers that are, by default, subject to the trusted host configuration. These headers will be filtered unless explicitly allowed in $trustedHosts. If the list contains the Forwarded header, processing will be done according to RFC 7239. The match of header names is case-insensitive.

See also:

public array $secureHeaders = [
    
'X-Forwarded-For',
    
'X-Forwarded-Host',
    
'X-Forwarded-Proto',

$trustedHosts public property (available since version 2.0.13)

The configuration for trusted security related headers.

An array key is an IPv4 or IPv6 IP address in CIDR notation for matching a client.

An array value is a list of headers to trust. These will be matched against $secureHeaders to determine which headers are allowed to be sent by a specified host. The case of the header names must be the same as specified in $secureHeaders.

For example, to trust all headers listed in $secureHeaders for IP addresses in range 192.168.0.0-192.168.0.254 write the following:

[
    '192.168.0.0/24',
]

To trust just the X-Forwarded-For header from 10.0.0.1, use:

[
    '10.0.0.1' => ['X-Forwarded-For']
]

Default is to trust all headers except those listed in $secureHeaders from all hosts. Matches are tried in order and searching is stopped when IP matches.

Info: Matching is performed using yii\validators\IpValidator. See IpValidator::::setRanges() and yii\validators\IpValidator::$networks for advanced matching.

See also $secureHeaders.

__call() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__call()

Calls the named method which is not a class method.

This method will check if any attached behavior has the named method and will execute it if available.

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when an unknown method is being invoked.

public mixed __call ( $name, $params )
$name string

The method name

$params array

Method parameters

return mixed

The method return value

throws yii\base\UnknownMethodException

when calling unknown method

                public function __call($name, $params)
{
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($this->_behaviors as $object) {
        if ($object->hasMethod($name)) {
            return call_user_func_array([$object, $name], $params);
        }
    }
    throw new UnknownMethodException('Calling unknown method: ' . get_class($this) . "::$name()");
}

            
__clone() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__clone()

This method is called after the object is created by cloning an existing one.

It removes all behaviors because they are attached to the old object.

public void __clone ( )

                public function __clone()
{
    $this->_events = [];
    $this->_eventWildcards = [];
    $this->_behaviors = null;
}

            
__construct() public method

Defined in: yii\base\BaseObject::__construct()

Constructor.

The default implementation does two things:

  • Initializes the object with the given configuration $config.
  • Call init().

If this method is overridden in a child class, it is recommended that

  • the last parameter of the constructor is a configuration array, like $config here.
  • call the parent implementation at the end of the constructor.
public void __construct ( $config = [] )
$config array

Name-value pairs that will be used to initialize the object properties

                public function __construct($config = [])
{
    if (!empty($config)) {
        Yii::configure($this, $config);
    }
    $this->init();
}

            
__get() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__get()

Returns the value of a component property.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a getter: return the getter result
  • a property of a behavior: return the behavior property value

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing $value = $component->property;.

See also __set().

public mixed __get ( $name )
$name string

The property name

return mixed

The property value or the value of a behavior's property

throws yii\base\UnknownPropertyException

if the property is not defined

throws yii\base\InvalidCallException

if the property is write-only.

                public function __get($name)
{
    $getter = 'get' . $name;
    if (method_exists($this, $getter)) {
        // read property, e.g. getName()
        return $this->$getter();
    }
    // behavior property
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
        if ($behavior->canGetProperty($name)) {
            return $behavior->$name;
        }
    }
    if (method_exists($this, 'set' . $name)) {
        throw new InvalidCallException('Getting write-only property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
    }
    throw new UnknownPropertyException('Getting unknown property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
}

            
__isset() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__isset()

Checks if a property is set, i.e. defined and not null.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a setter: return whether the property is set
  • a property of a behavior: return whether the property is set
  • return false for non existing properties

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing isset($component->property).

__set() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__set()

Sets the value of a component property.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a setter: set the property value
  • an event in the format of "on xyz": attach the handler to the event "xyz"
  • a behavior in the format of "as xyz": attach the behavior named as "xyz"
  • a property of a behavior: set the behavior property value

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing $component->property = $value;.

See also __get().

public void __set ( $name, $value )
$name string

The property name or the event name

$value mixed

The property value

throws yii\base\UnknownPropertyException

if the property is not defined

throws yii\base\InvalidCallException

__unset() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__unset()

Sets a component property to be null.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a setter: set the property value to be null
  • a property of a behavior: set the property value to be null

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing unset($component->property).

See also https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.unset.php.

public void __unset ( $name )

}

            
attachBehavior() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::attachBehavior()

Attaches a behavior to this component.

This method will create the behavior object based on the given configuration. After that, the behavior object will be attached to this component by calling the yii\base\Behavior::attach() method.

See also detachBehavior().

public yii\base\Behavior attachBehavior ( $name, $behavior )
$name string

The name of the behavior.

$behavior string|array|yii\base\Behavior

The behavior configuration. This can be one of the following:

return yii\base\Behavior

The behavior object

                public function attachBehavior($name, $behavior)
{
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    return $this->attachBehaviorInternal($name, $behavior);
}

            
attachBehaviors() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::attachBehaviors()

Attaches a list of behaviors to the component.

Each behavior is indexed by its name and should be a yii\base\Behavior object, a string specifying the behavior class, or an configuration array for creating the behavior.

See also attachBehavior().

public void attachBehaviors ( $behaviors )
$behaviors array

List of behaviors to be attached to the component

                public function attachBehaviors($behaviors)

    }
}

            
behaviors() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::behaviors()

Returns a list of behaviors that this component should behave as.

Child classes may override this method to specify the behaviors they want to behave as.

The return value of this method should be an array of behavior objects or configurations indexed by behavior names. A behavior configuration can be either a string specifying the behavior class or an array of the following structure:

'behaviorName' => [
    'class' => 'BehaviorClass',
    'property1' => 'value1',
    'property2' => 'value2',
]

Note that a behavior class must extend from yii\base\Behavior. Behaviors can be attached using a name or anonymously. When a name is used as the array key, using this name, the behavior can later be retrieved using getBehavior() or be detached using detachBehavior(). Anonymous behaviors can not be retrieved or detached.

Behaviors declared in this method will be attached to the component automatically (on demand).

getHostInfo() public method

Returns the schema and host part of the current request URL.

The returned URL does not have an ending slash.

By default this value is based on the user request information. This method will return the value of $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] if it is available or $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] if not. You may want to check out the PHP documentation for more information on these variables.

You may explicitly specify it by setting the hostInfo property.

Warning: Dependent on the server configuration this information may not be reliable and may be faked by the user sending the HTTP request. If the webserver is configured to serve the same site independent of the value of the Host header, this value is not reliable. In such situations you should either fix your webserver configuration or explicitly set the value by setting the hostInfo property. If you don't have access to the server configuration, you can setup yii\filters\HostControl filter at application level in order to protect against such kind of attack.

on() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::on()

Attaches an event handler to an event.

The event handler must be a valid PHP callback. The following are some examples:

function ($event) { ... }         // anonymous function
[$object, 'handleClick']          // $object->handleClick()
['Page', 'handleClick']           // Page::handleClick()
'handleClick'                     // global function handleClick()

The event handler must be defined with the following signature,

function ($event)

where $event is an yii\base\Event object which includes parameters associated with the event.

Since 2.0.14 you can specify event name as a wildcard pattern:

$component->on('event.group.*', function ($event) {
    Yii::trace($event->name . ' is triggered.');
});

See also off().

public void on ( $name, $handler, $data null, $append true )
