HTTP Content-* headers parsing.
Lead Maintainer - Rui Quelhas
Install via NPM.
$ npm install content
content allows to parse HTTP Content-*
headers, currently based on the rules established in both RFC 7231 Section 3.1.1.1 and RFC 6266 Section 4.1.
Generates an object containing the associated mime-type and the boundary (if specified).
Content.type('application/json; some=property; and="another"');
// { mime: 'application/json' }
Content.type('application/json; boundary=asdf');
// { mime: 'application/json', boundary: 'asdf' }
If the header is invalid (malformed) or missing required data, such as a multipart/form-data
header missing its boundary
, it returns an HTTP Bad Request
error.
Generates an object containing the details related to the Content-Disposition
header for the form-data
content type with support for utf8
encoding.
Content.disposition('form-data; name="file"; filename=file.jpg');
// { name: 'file', filename: 'file.jpg' }
Content.disposition('form-data; name="file"; filename*=utf-8\'en\'with%20space');
// { name: 'file', filename: 'with space' }
If the header is invalid (malformed, invalid or missing properties) or is empty/missing, it returns an explanatory error.
