class Request:
    """Represents a client's HTTP request.

    Note:
        `Request` is not meant to be instantiated directly by responders.

    Args:
        env (dict): A WSGI environment dict passed in from the server. See
            also PEP-3333.

    Keyword Arguments:
        options (dict): Set of global options passed from the App handler.

    Attributes:
        env (dict): Reference to the WSGI environ ``dict`` passed in from the
            server. (See also PEP-3333.)
        context (object): Empty object to hold any data (in its attributes)
            about the request which is specific to your app (e.g. session
            object). Falcon itself will not interact with this attribute after
            it has been initialized.

            Note:
                **New in 2.0:** The default `context_type` (see below) was
                changed from :class:`dict` to a bare class; the preferred way to
                pass request-specific data is now to set attributes directly on
                the `context` object. For example::

                    req.context.role = 'trial'
                    req.context.user = 'guest'

        context_type (class): Class variable that determines the factory or
            type to use for initializing the `context` attribute. By default,
            the framework will instantiate bare objects (instances of the bare
            :class:`falcon.Context` class). However, you may override this
            behavior by creating a custom child class of ``falcon.Request``,
            and then passing that new class to `falcon.App()` by way of the
            latter's `request_type` parameter.

            Note:
                When overriding `context_type` with a factory function (as
                opposed to a class), the function is called like a method of
                the current Request instance. Therefore the first argument is
                the Request instance itself (self).
        scheme (str): URL scheme used for the request. Either 'http' or
            'https'.

            Note:
                If the request was proxied, the scheme may not
                match what was originally requested by the client.
                :py:attr:`forwarded_scheme` can be used, instead,
                to handle such cases.

        forwarded_scheme (str): Original URL scheme requested by the
            user agent, if the request was proxied. Typical values are
            'http' or 'https'.

            The following request headers are checked, in order of
            preference, to determine the forwarded scheme:

                - ``Forwarded``
                - ``X-Forwarded-For``

            If none of these headers are available, or if the
            Forwarded header is available but does not contain a
            "proto" parameter in the first hop, the value of
            :attr:`scheme` is returned instead.

            (See also: RFC 7239, Section 1)

        method (str): HTTP method requested (e.g., 'GET', 'POST', etc.)
        host (str): Host request header field
        forwarded_host (str): Original host request header as received
            by the first proxy in front of the application server.

            The following request headers are checked, in order of
            preference, to determine the forwarded scheme:

                - ``Forwarded``
                - ``X-Forwarded-Host``

            If none of the above headers are available, or if the
            Forwarded header is available but the "host"
            parameter is not included in the first hop, the value of
            :attr:`host` is returned instead.

            Note:
                Reverse proxies are often configured to set the Host
                header directly to the one that was originally
                requested by the user agent; in that case, using
                :attr:`host` is sufficient.

            (See also: RFC 7239, Section 4)

        port (int): Port used for the request. If the Host header is present
            in the request, but does not specify a port, the default one for the
            given schema is returned (80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS). If the
            request does not include a Host header, the listening port for the
            WSGI server is returned instead.
        netloc (str): Returns the "host:port" portion of the request
            URL. The port may be omitted if it is the default one for
            the URL's schema (80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS).
        subdomain (str): Leftmost (i.e., most specific) subdomain from the
            hostname. If only a single domain name is given, `subdomain`
            will be ``None``.

            Note:
                If the hostname in the request is an IP address, the value
                for `subdomain` is undefined.

        root_path (str): The initial portion of the request URI's path that
            corresponds to the application object, so that the
            application knows its virtual "location". This may be an
            empty string, if the application corresponds to the "root"
            of the server.

            (Corresponds to the "SCRIPT_NAME" environ variable defined
            by PEP-3333.)
        app (str): Deprecated alias for :attr:`root_path`.
        uri (str): The fully-qualified URI for the request.
        url (str): Alias for :attr:`uri`.
        forwarded_uri (str): Original URI for proxied requests. Uses
            :attr:`forwarded_scheme` and :attr:`forwarded_host` in
            order to reconstruct the original URI requested by the user
            agent.
        relative_uri (str): The path and query string portion of the
            request URI, omitting the scheme and host.
        prefix (str): The prefix of the request URI, including scheme,
            host, and WSGI app (if any).
        forwarded_prefix (str): The prefix of the original URI for
            proxied requests. Uses :attr:`forwarded_scheme` and
            :attr:`forwarded_host` in order to reconstruct the
            original URI.
        path (str): Path portion of the request URI (not including query
            string).

            Warning:
                If this attribute is to be used by the app for any upstream
                requests, any non URL-safe characters in the path must be URL
                encoded back before making the request.

            Note:
                ``req.path`` may be set to a new value by a
                ``process_request()`` middleware method in order to influence
                routing. If the original request path was URL encoded, it will
                be decoded before being returned by this attribute.

        query_string (str): Query string portion of the request URI, without
            the preceding '?' character.
        uri_template (str): The template for the route that was matched for
            this request. May be ``None`` if the request has not yet been
            routed, as would be the case for ``process_request()`` middleware
            methods. May also be ``None`` if your app uses a custom routing
            engine and the engine does not provide the URI template when
            resolving a route.
        remote_addr(str): IP address of the closest client or proxy to
            the WSGI server.

            This property is determined by the value of ``REMOTE_ADDR``
            in the WSGI environment dict. Since this address is not
            derived from an HTTP header, clients and proxies can not
            forge it.

            Note:
                If your application is behind one or more reverse
                proxies, you can use :py:attr:`~.access_route`
                to retrieve the real IP address of the client.
        access_route(list): IP address of the original client, as well
            as any known addresses of proxies fronting the WSGI server.

            The following request headers are checked, in order of
            preference, to determine the addresses:

                - ``Forwarded``
                - ``X-Forwarded-For``
                - ``X-Real-IP``

            If none of these headers are available, the value of
            :py:attr:`~.remote_addr` is used instead.

            Note:
                Per `RFC 7239`_, the access route may contain "unknown"
                and obfuscated identifiers, in addition to IPv4 and
                IPv6 addresses

                .. _RFC 7239: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7239

            Warning:
                Headers can be forged by any client or proxy. Use this
                property with caution and validate all values before
                using them. Do not rely on the access route to authorize
                requests.

        forwarded (list): Value of the Forwarded header, as a parsed list
            of :class:`falcon.Forwarded` objects, or ``None`` if the header
            is missing. If the header value is malformed, Falcon will
            make a best effort to parse what it can.

            (See also: RFC 7239, Section 4)
        date (datetime): Value of the Date header, converted to a
            ``datetime`` instance. The header value is assumed to
            conform to RFC 1123.
        auth (str): Value of the Authorization header, or ``None`` if the
            header is missing.
        user_agent (str): Value of the User-Agent header, or ``None`` if the
            header is missing.
        referer (str): Value of the Referer header, or ``None`` if
            the header is missing.
        accept (str): Value of the Accept header, or ``'*/*'`` if the header is
            missing.
        client_accepts_json (bool): ``True`` if the Accept header indicates
            that the client is willing to receive JSON, otherwise ``False``.
        client_accepts_msgpack (bool): ``True`` if the Accept header indicates
            that the client is willing to receive MessagePack, otherwise
            ``False``.
        client_accepts_xml (bool): ``True`` if the Accept header indicates that
            the client is willing to receive XML, otherwise ``False``.
        cookies (dict):
            A dict of name/value cookie pairs. The returned object should be
            treated as read-only to avoid unintended side-effects.
            If a cookie appears more than once in the request, only the first
            value encountered will be made available here.

            See also: :meth:`~falcon.Request.get_cookie_values`
        content_type (str): Value of the Content-Type header, or ``None`` if
            the header is missing.
        content_length (int): Value of the Content-Length header converted
            to an ``int``, or ``None`` if the header is missing.
        stream: File-like input object for reading the body of the
            request, if any. This object provides direct access to the
            server's data stream and is non-seekable. In order to
            avoid unintended side effects, and to provide maximum
            flexibility to the application, Falcon itself does not
            buffer or spool the data in any way.

            Since this object is provided by the WSGI
            server itself, rather than by Falcon, it may behave
            differently depending on how you host your app. For example,
            attempting to read more bytes than are expected (as
            determined by the Content-Length header) may or may not
            block indefinitely. It's a good idea to test your WSGI
            server to find out how it behaves.

            This can be particulary problematic when a request body is
            expected, but none is given. In this case, the following
            call blocks under certain WSGI servers::

                # Blocks if Content-Length is 0
                data = req.stream.read()

            The workaround is fairly straightforward, if verbose::

                # If Content-Length happens to be 0, or the header is
                # missing altogether, this will not block.
                data = req.stream.read(req.content_length or 0)

            Alternatively, when passing the stream directly to a
            consumer, it may be necessary to branch off the
            value of the Content-Length header::

                if req.content_length:
                    doc = json.load(req.stream)

            For a slight performance cost, you may instead wish to use
            :py:attr:`bounded_stream`, which wraps the native WSGI
            input object to normalize its behavior.

            Note:
                If an HTML form is POSTed to the API using the
                *application/x-www-form-urlencoded* media type, and
                the :py:attr:`~.RequestOptions.auto_parse_form_urlencoded`
                option is set, the framework
                will consume `stream` in order to parse the parameters
                and merge them into the query string parameters. In this
                case, the stream will be left at EOF.

        bounded_stream: File-like wrapper around `stream` to normalize
            certain differences between the native input objects
            employed by different WSGI servers. In particular,
            `bounded_stream` is aware of the expected Content-Length of
            the body, and will never block on out-of-bounds reads,
            assuming the client does not stall while transmitting the
            data to the server.

            For example, the following will not block when
            Content-Length is 0 or the header is missing altogether::

                data = req.bounded_stream.read()

            This is also safe::

                doc = json.load(req.bounded_stream)

        media (object): Property that acts as an alias for
            :meth:`~.get_media`. This alias provides backwards-compatibility
            for apps that were built for versions of the framework prior to
            3.0::

                # Equivalent to: deserialized_media = req.get_media()
                deserialized_media = req.media

        expect (str): Value of the Expect header, or ``None`` if the
            header is missing.

        range (tuple of int): A 2-member ``tuple`` parsed from the value of the
            Range header, or ``None`` if the header is missing.

            The two members correspond to the first and last byte
            positions of the requested resource, inclusive. Negative
            indices indicate offset from the end of the resource,
            where -1 is the last byte, -2 is the second-to-last byte,
            and so forth.

            Only continuous ranges are supported (e.g., "bytes=0-0,-1" would
            result in an HTTPBadRequest exception when the attribute is
            accessed.)
        range_unit (str): Unit of the range parsed from the value of the
            Range header, or ``None`` if the header is missing
        if_match (list): Value of the If-Match header, as a parsed list of
            :class:`falcon.ETag` objects or ``None`` if the header is missing
            or its value is blank.

            This property provides a list of all ``entity-tags`` in the
            header, both strong and weak, in the same order as listed in
            the header.

            (See also: RFC 7232, Section 3.1)

        if_none_match (list): Value of the If-None-Match header, as a parsed
            list of :class:`falcon.ETag` objects or ``None`` if the header is
            missing or its value is blank.

            This property provides a list of all ``entity-tags`` in the
            header, both strong and weak, in the same order as listed in
            the header.

            (See also: RFC 7232, Section 3.2)

        if_modified_since (datetime): Value of the If-Modified-Since header,
            or ``None`` if the header is missing.
        if_unmodified_since (datetime): Value of the If-Unmodified-Since
            header, or ``None`` if the header is missing.
        if_range (str): Value of the If-Range header, or ``None`` if the
            header is missing.

        headers (dict): Raw HTTP headers from the request with
            canonical dash-separated names. Parsing all the headers
            to create this dict is done the first time this attribute
            is accessed, and the returned object should be treated as
            read-only. Note that this parsing can be costly, so unless you
            need all the headers in this format, you should instead use the
            ``get_header()`` method or one of the convenience attributes
            to get a value for a specific header.

        params (dict): The mapping of request query parameter names to their
            values.  Where the parameter appears multiple times in the query
            string, the value mapped to that parameter key will be a list of
            all the values in the order seen.

        options (dict): Set of global options passed from the App handler.

        The first time this method is called, the request stream will be
        deserialized using the Content-Type header as well as the media-type
        handlers configured via :class:`falcon.RequestOptions`. The result will
        be cached and returned in subsequent calls::

        If the matched media handler raises an error while attempting to
        deserialize the request body, the exception will propagate up
        to the caller.

        See also :ref:`media` for more information regarding media handling.

        Note:
            When ``get_media`` is called on a request with an empty body,
            Falcon will let the media handler try to deserialize the body
            and will return the value returned by the handler or propagate
            the exception raised by it. To instead return a different value
            in case of an exception by the handler, specify the argument
            ``default_when_empty``.

        Warning:
            This operation will consume the request stream the first time
            it's called and cache the results. Follow-up calls will just
            retrieve a cached version of the object.

                (like in the case of the default JSON media handler).
                By default, Falcon uses the value returned by the media handler
                or propagates the raised exception, if any.

class RequestOptions:
    """Defines a set of configurable request options.

    An instance of this class is exposed via :attr:`falcon.App.req_options` and
    :attr:`falcon.asgi.App.req_options` for configuring certain
    :class:`~.Request` and :class:`falcon.asgi.Request` behaviors,
    respectively.

    Attributes:
        keep_blank_qs_values (bool): Set to ``False`` to ignore query string
            params that have missing or blank values (default ``True``).
            For comma-separated values, this option also determines
            whether or not empty elements in the parsed list are
            retained.

        auto_parse_form_urlencoded: Set to ``True`` in order to
            automatically consume the request stream and merge the
            results into the request's query string params when the
            request's content type is
            *application/x-www-form-urlencoded* (default ``False``).

            Enabling this option for WSGI apps makes the form parameters
            accessible via :attr:`~falcon.Request.params`,
            :meth:`~falcon.Request.get_param`, etc.

            Warning:
                The `auto_parse_form_urlencoded` option is not supported for
                ASGI apps, and is considered deprecated for WSGI apps as of
                Falcon 3.0, in favor of accessing URL-encoded forms
                through :attr:`~Request.media`.

                See also: :ref:`access_urlencoded_form`

            Warning:
                When this option is enabled, the request's body
                stream will be left at EOF. The original data is
                not retained by the framework.

            Note:
                The character encoding for fields, before
                percent-encoding non-ASCII bytes, is assumed to be
                UTF-8. The special `_charset_` field is ignored if
                present.

                Falcon expects form-encoded request bodies to be
                encoded according to the standard W3C algorithm (see
                also http://goo.gl/6rlcux).

        auto_parse_qs_csv: Set to ``True`` to split query string values on
            any non-percent-encoded commas (default ``False``).

            When ``False``,
            values containing commas are left as-is. In this mode, list items
            are taken only from multiples of the same parameter name within the
            query string (i.e. ``t=1,2,3&t=4`` becomes ``['1,2,3', '4']``).

            When `auto_parse_qs_csv` is set to ``True``, the query string value
            is also split on non-percent-encoded commas and these items
            are added to the final list (i.e. ``t=1,2,3&t=4,5``
            becomes ``['1', '2', '3', '4', '5']``).

            Warning:
                Enabling this option will cause the framework to misinterpret
                any JSON values that include literal (non-percent-encoded)
                commas. If the query string may include JSON, you can
                use JSON array syntax in lieu of CSV as a workaround.

        strip_url_path_trailing_slash: Set to ``True`` in order to
            strip the trailing slash, if present, at the end of the URL
            path (default ``False``). When this option is enabled,
            the URL path is normalized by stripping the trailing slash
            character. This lets the application define a single route
            to a resource for a path that may or may not end in a
            forward slash. However, this behavior can be problematic in
            certain cases, such as when working with authentication
            schemes that employ URL-based signatures.

        default_media_type (str): The default media-type used to
            deserialize a request body, when the Content-Type header is
            missing or ambiguous. This value is normally
            set to the media type provided to the :class:`falcon.App` or
            :class:`falcon.asgi.App` initializer; however, if created
            independently, this will default to
            :attr:`falcon.DEFAULT_MEDIA_TYPE`.

        media_handlers (Handlers): A dict-like object for configuring the
            media-types to handle. By default, handlers are provided for the
            ``application/json``, ``application/x-www-form-urlencoded`` and
            ``multipart/form-data`` media types.
