Instance Public methods
Print an HTTP header and body to $DEFAULT_OUTPUT ($>)
- content_type_string
-
If a string is passed, it is assumed to be the content type.
-
headers_hash -
This is a Hash of headers, similar to that used by http_header.
-
block -
A block is required and should evaluate to the body of the response.
Content-Length is automatically calculated from the size of
the String returned by the content block.
If ENV['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "HEAD", then only the
header is output (the content block is still required, but it is ignored).
If the charset is âiso-2022-jpâ or âeuc-jpâ or âshift_jisâ then the content is converted to this charset, and the language is set to âjaâ.
Example:
cgi = CGI.new
cgi.out{ "string" }
# Content-Type: text/html
# Content-Length: 6
#
# string
cgi.out("text/plain") { "string" }
# Content-Type: text/plain
# Content-Length: 6
#
# string
cgi.out("nph" => true,
"status" => "OK", # == "200 OK"
"server" => ENV['SERVER_SOFTWARE'],
"connection" => "close",
"type" => "text/html",
"charset" => "iso-2022-jp",
# Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-2022-jp
"language" => "ja",
"expires" => Time.now + (3600 * 24 * 30),
"cookie" => [cookie1, cookie2],
"my_header1" => "my_value",
"my_header2" => "my_value") { "string" }
