MIME::Multipart::Parser - Crystal 1.5.0

# class MIME::Multipart::Parser

- MIME::Multipart::Parser
- Reference
- Object

##
Overview

Parses multipart MIME messages.

###
Example

    require "mime/multipart"

    multipart = "--aA40\r\nContent-Type: text/plain\r\n\r\nbody\r\n--aA40--"
    parser = MIME::Multipart::Parser.new(IO::Memory.new(multipart), "aA40")

    while parser.has_next?
      parser.next do |headers, io|
        headers["Content-Type"] # => "text/plain"
        io.gets_to_end          # => "body"
      end
    end

Please note that the IO object yielded by `#next` is only valid until the block returns.

##
Defined in:

mime/multipart/parser.cr

##
Constructors

- .new(io : IO, boundary : String)

  Creates a new `Multipart::Parser` which parses io with multipart boundary boundary.

##
Instance Method Summary

- #has_next? : Bool

  True if `#next` can be called legally.

- #next(&)

  Parses the next body part and yields headers as `HTTP::Headers` and the body text as an `IO`.

##
Constructor Detail

def self.new(io : IO, boundary : String) #

Creates a new `Multipart::Parser` which parses io with multipart boundary boundary.

##
Instance Method Detail

def has_next? : Bool #

True if `#next` can be called legally.

def next(&) #

Parses the next body part and yields headers as `HTTP::Headers` and the body text as an `IO`.

This method yields once instead of returning the values, because the IO object yielded to the block is only valid while the block is executing. The IO object will be closed as soon as the block returns. To store the content of the body part for longer than the block, the IO must be read into memory.

    require "mime/multipart"

    multipart = "--aA40\r\nContent-Type: text/plain\r\n\r\nbody\r\n--aA40--"
    parser = MIME::Multipart::Parser.new(IO::Memory.new(multipart), "aA40")
    parser.next do |headers, io|
      headers["Content-Type"] # => "text/plain"
      io.gets_to_end          # => "body"
    end
