### Attributes

base_uri[RW]

returns a `URI` that is the base of relative URIs in the data. It may differ from the `URI` supplied by a user due to redirection.

meta[R]

returns a Hash that represents header fields. The Hash keys are downcased for canonicalization. The Hash values are a field body. If there are multiple field with same field name, the field values are concatenated with a comma.

### Public Instance Methods

charset() click to toggle source

returns a charset parameter in Content-Type field. It is downcased for canonicalization.

If charset parameter is not given but a block is given, the block is called and its result is returned. It can be used to guess charset.

If charset parameter and block is not given, nil is returned except text type in HTTP. In that case, “iso-8859-1” is returned as defined by RFC2616 3.7.1.

                   # File open-uri.rb, line 533
    def charset
      type, *parameters = content_type_parse
      if pair = parameters.assoc('charset')
        pair.last.downcase
      elsif block_given?
        yield
      elsif type && %r{\Atext/} =~ type &&
            @base_uri && /\Ahttp\z/i =~ @base_uri.scheme
        "iso-8859-1" # RFC2616 3.7.1
      else
        nil
      end
    end

content_encoding() click to toggle source

Returns a list of encodings in Content-Encoding field as an array of strings.

The encodings are downcased for canonicalization.

                   # File open-uri.rb, line 551
    def content_encoding
      vs = @metas['content-encoding']
      if vs && %r{\A#{RE_LWS}?#{RE_TOKEN}#{RE_LWS}?(?:,#{RE_LWS}?#{RE_TOKEN}#{RE_LWS}?)*}o =~ (v = vs.join(', '))
        v.scan(RE_TOKEN).map {|content_coding| content_coding.downcase}
      else
        []
      end
    end

content_type() click to toggle source

returns “type/subtype” which is MIME Content-Type. It is downcased for canonicalization. Content-Type parameters are stripped.

                   # File open-uri.rb, line 518
    def content_type
      type, *_ = content_type_parse
      type || 'application/octet-stream'
    end

last_modified() click to toggle source

returns a Time that represents the Last-Modified field.

                   # File open-uri.rb, line 480
    def last_modified
      if vs = @metas['last-modified']
        v = vs.join(', ')
        Time.httpdate(v)
      else
        nil
      end
    end
