HttpResponse Node.js Reference Documentation
HttpResponse
Current Version: 10.1.0
Represents a complete HTTP response.
Object Creation
var obj = new chilkat.HttpResponse();
Properties
Body
· Buffer, read-only
The response body returned as a byte array.
topBodyQP
· string, read-only
The same as the Body property, but returned as a quoted-printable encoded string.
topBodyStr
· string, read-only
The response body returned as a string.
topCharset
· string, read-only
The response charset, such as "iso-8859-1", if applicable. Obviously, responses for GIF and JPG files will not have a charset.
topContentLength
· integer, read-only
The content length of the response, in bytes.
topDateStr
· string, read-only
Returns the content of the Date response header field in RFC822 date/time string format.
topDebugLogFilePath
· string
If set to a file path, causes each Chilkat method or property call to automatically append it's LastErrorText to the specified log file. The information is appended such that if a hang or crash occurs, it is possible to see the context in which the problem occurred, as well as a history of all Chilkat calls up to the point of the problem. The VerboseLogging property can be set to provide more detailed information.
This property is typically used for debugging the rare cases where a Chilkat method call hangs or generates an exception that halts program execution (i.e. crashes). A hang or crash should generally never happen. The typical causes of a hang are:
- a timeout related property was set to 0 to explicitly indicate that an infinite timeout is desired,
- the hang is actually a hang within an event callback (i.e. it is a hang within the application code), or
- there is an internal problem (bug) in the Chilkat code that causes the hang.
Domain
· string, read-only
The domain of the HTTP server that created this response.
topFinalRedirectUrl
· string, read-only
Returns the redirect URL for 301/302 responses.
topFullMime
· string, read-only
Header
· string, read-only
The full text of the response header.
topLastErrorHtml
· string, read-only
Provides information in HTML format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.
topLastErrorText
· string, read-only
Provides information in plain-text format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.
LastErrorXml
· string, read-only
Provides information in XML format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.
topLastMethodSuccess
· boolean
Indicate whether the last method call succeeded or failed. A value of true indicates success, a value of false indicates failure. This property is automatically set for method calls. It is not modified by property accesses. The property is automatically set to indicate success for the following types of method calls:
- Any method that returns a string.
- Any method returning a Chilkat object, binary bytes, or a date/time.
- Any method returning a standard boolean status value where success = true and failure = false.
- Any method returning an integer where failure is defined by a return value less than zero.
Note: Methods that do not fit the above requirements will always set this property equal to true. For example, a method that returns no value (such as a "void" in C++) will technically always succeed.
topNumCookies
· integer, read-only
The number of cookies included in the response.
topNumHeaderFields
· integer, read-only
The number of response header fields.
topStatusCode
· integer, read-only
The status code (as an integer) from the first line of an HTTP response. If the StatusLine = "HTTP/1.0 200 OK", the response status code returned is 200.
topStatusLine
· string, read-only
The first line of an HTTP response, such as "HTTP/1.0 200 OK".
topStatusText
· string, read-only
The text that follows the status code in the 1st line of the HTTP response. For example, i the first line of an HTTP response is "HTTP/1.0 200 OK", then this property contains "OK".
topUncommonOptions
· string
This is a catch-all property to be used for uncommon needs. Can be set to a list of the following comma separated keywords:
- "TakeResponseBody" - Introduced in v9.5.0.89. The GetBody* methods will transfer the body to the target object instead of copying the contents. This can be useful if the response body is extremely large because it will reduce the overall memory requirement.
VerboseLogging
· boolean
If set to true, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is false. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.
topVersion
· string, read-only
Methods

Copies the response body to a BinData object.
Returns true for success, false for failure.
GetBodyJarr
· Returns Boolean (true for success, false for failure).

topLoadTaskResult
