Interface CodeIgniter\HTTP\OutgoingRequestInterface

Get the request method. An extension of PSR-7's getMethod to allow casing.

Return an instance with the provided HTTP method.

While HTTP method names are typically all uppercase characters, HTTP method names are case-sensitive and thus implementations SHOULD NOT modify the given string.

This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the changed request method.

Retrieves the URI instance.

Returns an instance with the provided URI.

This method MUST update the Host header of the returned request by default if the URI contains a host component. If the URI does not contain a host component, any pre-existing Host header MUST be carried over to the returned request.

You can opt-in to preserving the original state of the Host header by setting $preserveHost to true. When $preserveHost is set to true, this method interacts with the Host header in the following ways:

• If the Host header is missing or empty, and the new URI contains a host component, this method MUST update the Host header in the returned request.
• If the Host header is missing or empty, and the new URI does not contain a host component, this method MUST NOT update the Host header in the returned request.
• If a Host header is present and non-empty, this method MUST NOT update the Host header in the returned request.

This method MUST be implemented in such a way as to retain the immutability of the message, and MUST return an instance that has the new UriInterface instance.
