Requests 2.0.13 API

Session

Session handler for persistent requests and default parameters

Allows various options to be set as default values, and merges both the options and URL properties together. A base URL can be set for all requests, with all subrequests resolved from this. Base options can be set (including a shared cookie jar), then overridden for individual requests.

Properties

$data

Base data for requests

public array<string|int, mixed> $data = []

If both the base data and the per-request data are arrays, the data will be merged before sending the request.

$headers

Base headers for requests

public array<string|int, mixed> $headers = []

$options

Base options for requests

public array<string|int, mixed> $options = []

The base options are merged with the per-request data for each request. The only default option is a shared cookie jar between requests.

Values here can also be set directly via properties on the Session object, e.g. $session->useragent = 'X';

$url

Base URL for requests

public string|null $url = null

URLs will be made absolute using this as the base
