QHttpServerResponse::QHttpServerResponse(const QByteArray &mimeType, QByteArray &&data, QHttpServerResponse::StatusCode status = StatusCode::Ok)

QHttpServerResponse::QHttpServerResponse(const QByteArray &mimeType, const QByteArray &data, QHttpServerResponse::StatusCode status = StatusCode::Ok)

Creates a QHttpServer response.

The response will use the given status code and deliver the data as its body, with a ContentType header describing it as being of MIME type mimeType.

QHttpServerResponse::QHttpServerResponse(QHttpServerResponse::StatusCode statusCode)

Creates a QHttpServerResponse object with the status code statusCode.

QHttpServerResponse::QHttpServerResponse(QByteArray &&data, QHttpServerResponse::StatusCode status = StatusCode::Ok)

Move-constructs a QHttpServerResponse whose body will contain the given data with the status code status.

QHttpServerResponse::QHttpServerResponse(const QByteArray &data, QHttpServerResponse::StatusCode status = StatusCode::Ok)

Creates a QHttpServerResponse object from data with the status code status.

QHttpServerResponse::QHttpServerResponse(const QJsonArray &data, QHttpServerResponse::StatusCode status = StatusCode::Ok)

Creates a QHttpServerResponse object from data with the status code status.

QHttpServerResponse::QHttpServerResponse(const QJsonObject &data, QHttpServerResponse::StatusCode status = StatusCode::Ok)

Creates a QHttpServerResponse object from data with the status code status.

QHttpServerResponse::QHttpServerResponse(const QString &data, QHttpServerResponse::StatusCode status = StatusCode::Ok)

Creates a QHttpServerResponse object from data with the status code status.

QHttpServerResponse::QHttpServerResponse(const char *data, QHttpServerResponse::StatusCode status = StatusCode::Ok)

Creates a QHttpServerResponse object from data with the status code status.

[noexcept] QHttpServerResponse::QHttpServerResponse(QHttpServerResponse &&other)

Move-constructs a new QHttpServerResponse from other.

[noexcept] QHttpServerResponse::~QHttpServerResponse()

Destroys a QHttpServerResponse object.

void QHttpServerResponse::addHeader(const QByteArray &name, const QByteArray &value)

Adds the HTTP header with name name and value value, does not override any previously set headers.

void QHttpServerResponse::clearHeader(const QByteArray &name)

Removes the HTTP header with name name.

void QHttpServerResponse::clearHeaders()

Removes all HTTP headers.

QByteArray QHttpServerResponse::data() const

Returns the response body.

[static] QHttpServerResponse QHttpServerResponse::fromFile(const QString &fileName)

Returns a QHttpServerResponse from the content of the file fileName.

It is the caller's responsibility to sanity-check the filename, and to have a well-defined policy for which files the server will request.

bool QHttpServerResponse::hasHeader(const QByteArray &header) const

Returns true if the response contains an HTTP header with name header, otherwise returns false.

bool QHttpServerResponse::hasHeader(const QByteArray &name, const QByteArray &value) const

Returns true if the response contains an HTTP header with name name and with value value, otherwise returns false.

QList<QByteArray> QHttpServerResponse::headerData(const QByteArray &name) const

Returns values of the HTTP header with name name.

[since 6.8] QHttpHeaders QHttpServerResponse::headers() const

Returns the currently set HTTP headers.

This function was introduced in Qt 6.8.

QByteArray QHttpServerResponse::mimeType() const

Returns the value of the HTTP "Content-Type" header.

Note: Default value is "text/html"

void QHttpServerResponse::setHeader(const QByteArray &name, const QByteArray &value)

Sets the HTTP header with name name and value value, overriding any previously set headers.

See also hasHeader().

QHttpServerResponse::StatusCode QHttpServerResponse::statusCode() const

Returns the status code.

[noexcept] void QHttpServerResponse::swap(QHttpServerResponse &other)

Swaps this QHttpServerResponse with other. This operation is very fast and never fails.

[since 6.8] QHttpServerResponse &QHttpServerResponse::withHeaders(QHttpHeaders &&headers)

Sets headers as the HTTP headers, overriding any previously set headers. Returns a reference to this object.

This function was introduced in Qt 6.8.

[since 6.8] QHttpServerResponse &QHttpServerResponse::withHeaders(const QHttpHeaders &headers)

Sets headers as the HTTP headers, overriding any previously set headers. Returns a reference to this object.

This function was introduced in Qt 6.8.

[noexcept] QHttpServerResponse &QHttpServerResponse::operator=(QHttpServerResponse &&other)

Move-assigns other to this QHttpServerResponse instance.
