class FormDataReader
import { FormDataReader } from "https://dotland-vbqsvsrpfncg.deno-staging.dev/x/oak@v11.1.0/mod.ts?p=prototype.all&s=FormDataReader";

An interface which provides an interface to access the fields of a multipart/form-data body.

Normally an instance of this is accessed when handling a request body, and dealing with decoding it. There are options that can be set when attempting to read a multi-part body (see: FormDataReadOptions).

If you .read() the value, then a promise is provided of type FormDataBody. If you use the .stream() property, it is an async iterator which yields up a tuple of with the first element being a

Examples

Using .read():

import { Application } from "https://deno.land/x/oak/mod.ts";

const app = new Application();

app.use(async (ctx) => {
  const body = ctx.request.body();
  if (body.type === "form-data") {
    const value = body.value;
    const formData = await value.read();
    // the form data is fully available
  }
});

Using .stream():

import { Application } from "https://deno.land/x/oak/mod.ts";

const app = new Application();

app.use(async (ctx) => {
  const body = ctx.request.body();
  if (body.type === "form-data") {
    const value = body.value;
    for await (const [name, value] of value.stream()) {
      // asynchronously iterate each part of the body
    }
  }
});

Methods

Reads the multipart body of the response and resolves with an object which contains fields and files that were part of the response.

Note: this method handles multiple files with the same name attribute in the request, but by design it does not handle multiple fields that share the same name. If you expect the request body to contain multiple form data fields with the same name, it is better to use the .stream() method which will iterate over each form data field individually.

stream(options?: FormDataReadOptions): AsyncIterableIterator<[string, string | FormDataFile]>[src]

Returns an iterator which will asynchronously yield each part of the form data. The yielded value is a tuple, where the first element is the name of the part and the second element is a string or a FormDataFile object.
