NAME

Web::Machine::Util::BodyEncoding - Module to handle body encoding

VERSION

version 0.17

SYNOPSIS

  use Web::Machine::Util::BodyEncoding;

DESCRIPTION

This handles the body encoding.

FUNCTIONS

"encode_body_if_set ( $resource, $response, $metadata )"

If the $response has a body, this will call "encode_body".

"encode_body ( $resource, $response, $metadata )"

This will find the right encoding (from the 'Content-Encoding' entry in the $metadata HASH ref) and the right charset (from the 'Charset' entry in the $metadata HASH ref), then find the right transformers in the $resource. After that it will attempt to convert the charset and encode the body of the $response. Once completed it will set the "Content-Length" header in the response as well.

CAVEAT: Note that currently this subroutine doesn't do anything when the body is returned as a CODE ref. This is a bug to be remedied in the future.
