    public
        CookieCollection
    $cookies

The cookie collection.

$cookieValidationKey


    public
        string
    $cookieValidationKey

a secret key used for cookie validation. This property must be set if [[enableCookieValidation]] is true.

$csrfCookie


    public
        array<string|int, mixed>
    $csrfCookie
     = ['httpOnly' => true]

the configuration for creating the CSRF [[Cookie|cookie]]. This property is used only when both [[enableCsrfValidation]] and [[enableCsrfCookie]] are true.

$csrfParam


    public
        string
    $csrfParam
     = '_csrf'

the name of the token used to prevent CSRF. Defaults to '_csrf'. This property is used only when [[enableCsrfValidation]] is true.

    public
        string
    $csrfToken

The token used to perform CSRF validation.

$csrfTokenFromHeader read-only


    public
        string|null

$enableCsrfCookie


    public
        bool
    $enableCsrfCookie
     = true

whether to use cookie to persist CSRF token. If false, CSRF token will be stored in session under the name of [[csrfParam]]. Note that while storing CSRF tokens in session increases security, it requires starting a session for every page, which will degrade your site performance.

$enableCsrfValidation


    public
        bool
    $enableCsrfValidation
     = true

whether to enable CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) validation. Defaults to true. When CSRF validation is enabled, forms submitted to an Yii Web application must be originated from the same application. If not, a 400 HTTP exception will be raised.

Note, this feature requires that the user client accepts cookie. Also, to use this feature, forms submitted via POST method must contain a hidden input whose name is specified by [[csrfParam]]. You may use [[\yii\helpers\Html::beginForm()]] to generate his hidden input.

In JavaScript, you may get the values of [[csrfParam]] and [[csrfToken]] via yii.getCsrfParam() and yii.getCsrfToken(), respectively. The [[\yii\web\YiiAsset]] asset must be registered. You also need to include CSRF meta tags in your pages by using [[\yii\helpers\Html::csrfMetaTags()]].

To enable parsing for JSON requests you can use the [[JsonParser]] class like in the following example:

[
    'application/json' => 'yii\web\JsonParser',
]

To register a parser for parsing all request types you can use '*' as the array key. This one will be used as a fallback in case no other types match.

$pathInfo

    'X-Rewrite-Url',
    // ngrok:
    'X-Original-Host',
]

lists of headers that are, by default, subject to the trusted host configuration. These headers will be filtered unless explicitly allowed in [[trustedHosts]]. If the list contains the Forwarded header, processing will be done according to RFC 7239. The match of header names is case-insensitive.

$securePort


    public

$trustedHosts


    public
        array<string|int, mixed>
    $trustedHosts
     = []

the configuration for trusted security related headers.

An array key is an IPv4 or IPv6 IP address in CIDR notation for matching a client.

An array value is a list of headers to trust. These will be matched against [[secureHeaders]] to determine which headers are allowed to be sent by a specified host. The case of the header names must be the same as specified in [[secureHeaders]].

For example, to trust all headers listed in [[secureHeaders]] for IP addresses in range 192.168.0.0-192.168.0.254 write the following:

[
    '192.168.0.0/24',
]

To trust just the X-Forwarded-For header from 10.0.0.1, use:

[
    '10.0.0.1' => ['X-Forwarded-For']
]

Default is to trust all headers except those listed in [[secureHeaders]] from all hosts. Matches are tried in order and searching is stopped when IP matches.

Info: Matching is performed using [[IpValidator]]. See [[IpValidator::::setRanges()|IpValidator::setRanges()]] and [[IpValidator::networks]] for advanced matching.

Return values

mixed —

the method return value

__clone()

This method is called after the object is created by cloning an existing one.

The default implementation does two things:

Initializes the object with the given configuration $config.
Call [[init()]].

If this method is overridden in a child class, it is recommended that

the last parameter of the constructor is a configuration array, like $config here.
call the parent implementation at the end of the constructor.

Parameters

$config : array<string|int, mixed> = []: name-value pairs that will be used to initialize the object properties

__get()

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

a property defined by a getter: return the getter result
a property of a behavior: return the behavior property value

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing $value = $component->property;.

Parameters

$name : string: the property name

Return values

mixed —

the property value or the value of a behavior's property

__isset()

Checks if a property is set, i.e. defined and not null.


    public
                    __isset(string $name) : bool

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

a property defined by a setter: return whether the property is set
a property of a behavior: return whether the property is set
return false for non existing properties

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing isset($component->property).

Parameters

$name : string: the property name or the event name

Return values

bool —

whether the named property is set

__set()

Sets the value of a component property.


    public
                    __set(string $name, mixed $value) : mixed

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

a property defined by a setter: set the property value
an event in the format of "on xyz": attach the handler to the event "xyz"
a behavior in the format of "as xyz": attach the behavior named as "xyz"
a property of a behavior: set the behavior property value

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing $component->property = $value;.

Parameters

$name : string: the property name or the event name
$value : mixed: the property value

__unset()

Sets a component property to be null.


    public
                    __unset(string $name) : mixed

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

a property defined by a setter: set the property value to be null
a property of a behavior: set the property value to be null

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing unset($component->property).

    public
                    attachBehavior(string $name, string|array<string|int, mixed>|Behavior $behavior) : Behavior

This method will create the behavior object based on the given configuration. After that, the behavior object will be attached to this component by calling the [[Behavior::attach()]] method.

Parameters

$name : string

the name of the behavior.

$behavior : string|array<string|int, mixed>|Behavior

the behavior configuration. This can be one of the following:

a [[Behavior]] object
a string specifying the behavior class
an object configuration array that will be passed to [[Yii::createObject()]] to create the behavior object.

Return values

Behavior —

the behavior object

attachBehaviors()

    public
                    attachBehaviors(array<string|int, mixed> $behaviors) : mixed

Each behavior is indexed by its name and should be a [[Behavior]] object, a string specifying the behavior class, or an configuration array for creating the behavior.

Parameters

$behaviors : array<string|int, mixed>: list of behaviors to be attached to the component

behaviors()

Returns a list of behaviors that this component should behave as.


    public
                    behaviors() : array<string|int, mixed>

Child classes may override this method to specify the behaviors they want to behave as.

The return value of this method should be an array of behavior objects or configurations indexed by behavior names. A behavior configuration can be either a string specifying the behavior class or an array of the following structure:

'behaviorName' => [
    'class' => 'BehaviorClass',
    'property1' => 'value1',
    'property2' => 'value2',
]

Note that a behavior class must extend from [[Behavior]]. Behaviors can be attached using a name or anonymously. When a name is used as the array key, using this name, the behavior can later be retrieved using [[getBehavior()]] or be detached using [[detachBehavior()]]. Anonymous behaviors can not be retrieved or detached.

Behaviors declared in this method will be attached to the component automatically (on demand).

Return values

array<string|int, mixed> —

the behavior configurations.

Warning: Dependent on the server configuration this information may not be reliable and may be faked by the user sending the HTTP request. If the webserver is configured to serve the same site independent of the value of the Host header, this value is not reliable. In such situations you should either fix your webserver configuration or explicitly set the value by setting the [[setHostInfo()|hostInfo]] property. If you don't have access to the server configuration, you can setup [[\yii\filters\HostControl]] filter at application level in order to protect against such kind of attack.

                    hasProperty(string $name[, bool $checkVars = true ][, bool $checkBehaviors = true ]) : bool

A property is defined if:

the class has a getter or setter method associated with the specified name (in this case, property name is case-insensitive);
the class has a member variable with the specified name (when $checkVars is true);
an attached behavior has a property of the given name (when $checkBehaviors is true).

Parameters

$name : string: the property name
$checkVars : bool = true: whether to treat member variables as properties
$checkBehaviors : bool = true: whether to treat behaviors' properties as properties of this component

off()

Detaches an existing event handler from this component.


    public
                    off(string $name[, callable|null $handler = null ]) : bool

This method is the opposite of [[on()]].

Note: in case wildcard pattern is passed for event name, only the handlers registered with this wildcard will be removed, while handlers registered with plain names matching this wildcard will remain.

Parameters

$name : string: event name
$handler : callable|null = null: the event handler to be removed. If it is null, all handlers attached to the named event will be removed.

Return values

bool —

if a handler is found and detached

on()

Attaches an event handler to an event.


    public
                    on(string $name, callable $handler[, mixed $data = null ][, bool $append = true ]) : mixed

The event handler must be a valid PHP callback. The following are some examples:

function ($event) { ... }         // anonymous function
[$object, 'handleClick']          // $object->handleClick()
['Page', 'handleClick']           // Page::handleClick()
'handleClick'                     // global function handleClick()

The event handler must be defined with the following signature,

function ($event)

where $event is an [[Event]] object which includes parameters associated with the event.

Since 2.0.14 you can specify event name as a wildcard pattern:

$component->on('event.group.*', function ($event) {
    Yii::trace($event->name . ' is triggered.');
});

Parameters

$name : string: the event name
$handler : callable: the event handler
$data : mixed = null: the data to be passed to the event handler when the event is triggered. When the event handler is invoked, this data can be accessed via [[Event::data]].
$append : bool = true: whether to append new event handler to the end of the existing handler list. If false, the new handler will be inserted at the beginning of the existing handler list.

$header = 'text/plain; q=0.5, application/json; version=1.0, application/xml; version=2.0;';
$accepts = $request->parseAcceptHeader($header);
print_r($accepts);
// displays:
// [
//     'application/json' => ['q' => 1, 'version' => '1.0'],
