Get request data from current context

current_context.Rd

These read-only helpers provide access to request data for the current HTTP request via the freshwater request context.

  • current_path() returns the request URL path

  • current_method() returns the HTTP method

  • current_query() returns the query parameters

  • current_cookie() returns the value of a cookie by name

  • current_header() returns the value of a header by name

These functions are primarily intended for use inside templates where a request context has been established. If called outside of an active context, an error is raised.

Context is available when freshwater context middleware is active (installed automatically by api_csrf(), api_error_pages(), or api_freshwater()).

Usage

current_path()

current_method()
