Available since version2.0
Source Code https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/web/Response.php

The web Response class represents an HTTP response

It holds the $headers, $cookies and $content that is to be sent to the client. It also controls the HTTP status code.

Response is configured as an application component in yii\web\Application by default. You can access that instance via Yii::$app->response.

You can modify its configuration by adding an array to your application config under components as it is shown in the following example:

'response' => [
    'format' => yii\web\Response::FORMAT_JSON,
    'charset' => 'UTF-8',
    // ...
]

For more details and usage information on Response, see the guide article on responses.

public string $acceptMimeType null
$acceptParams public property

The parameters (e.g. ['q' => 1, 'version' => '1.0']) associated with the chosen MIME type. This is a list of name-value pairs associated with $acceptMimeType from the ACCEPT HTTP header. This property is mainly set by yii\filters\ContentNegotiator.

public array $acceptParams = []
$charset public property

The charset of the text response. If not set, it will use the value of yii\web\Application::$charset.

public string $charset null

public $this setDownloadHeaders ( $attachmentName, $mimeType null, $inline false, $contentLength null )
$format public property

The response format. This determines how to convert $data into $content when the latter is not set. The value of this property must be one of the keys declared in the $formatters array. By default, the following formats are supported:

  • FORMAT_RAW: the data will be treated as the response content without any conversion. No extra HTTP header will be added.
  • FORMAT_HTML: the data will be treated as the response content without any conversion. The "Content-Type" header will set as "text/html".
  • FORMAT_JSON: the data will be converted into JSON format, and the "Content-Type" header will be set as "application/json".
  • FORMAT_JSONP: the data will be converted into JSONP format, and the "Content-Type" header will be set as "text/javascript". Note that in this case $data must be an array with "data" and "callback" elements. The former refers to the actual data to be sent, while the latter refers to the name of the JavaScript callback.
  • FORMAT_XML: the data will be converted into XML format. Please refer to yii\web\XmlResponseFormatter for more details.

You may customize the formatting process or support additional formats by configuring $formatters.

getDispositionHeaderValue() protected method (available since version 2.0.10)

Returns Content-Disposition header value that is safe to use with both old and new browsers

Fallback name:

  • Causes issues if contains non-ASCII characters with codes less than 32 or more than 126.
  • Causes issues if contains urlencoded characters (starting with %) or % character. Some browsers interpret filename="X" as urlencoded name, some don't.
  • Causes issues if contains path separator characters such as \ or /.
  • Since value is wrapped with ", it should be escaped as \".
  • Since input could contain non-ASCII characters, fallback is obtained by transliteration.

UTF name:

  • Causes issues if contains path separator characters such as \ or /.
  • Should be urlencoded since headers are ASCII-only.
  • Could be omitted if it exactly matches fallback name.
protected string getDispositionHeaderValue ( $disposition, $attachmentName )
$disposition string
$attachmentName string

public integer getStatusCode ( )
return integer

The HTTP status code to send with the response.

init() public method

Initializes this component.

public void init ( )
prepare() protected method

Prepares for sending the response.

The default implementation will convert $data into $content and set headers accordingly.

protected void prepare ( )
throws yii\base\InvalidConfigException

if the formatter for the specified format is invalid or $format is not supported

redirect() public method

Redirects the browser to the specified URL.

This method adds a "Location" header to the current response. Note that it does not send out the header until send() is called. In a controller action you may use this method as follows:

return Yii::$app->getResponse()->redirect($url);

In other places, if you want to send out the "Location" header immediately, you should use the following code:

Yii::$app->getResponse()->redirect($url)->send();
return;

In AJAX mode, this normally will not work as expected unless there are some client-side JavaScript code handling the redirection. To help achieve this goal, this method will send out a "X-Redirect" header instead of "Location".

If you use the "yii" JavaScript module, it will handle the AJAX redirection as described above. Otherwise, you should write the following JavaScript code to handle the redirection:

$document.ajaxComplete(function (event, xhr, settings) {
    var url = xhr && xhr.getResponseHeader('X-Redirect');
    if (url) {
        window.location = url;
    }
});
public $this redirect ( $url, $statusCode 302, $checkAjax true )
$url string|array

The URL to be redirected to. This can be in one of the following formats:

  • a string representing a URL (e.g. "http://example.com")
  • a string representing a URL alias (e.g. "@example.com")
  • an array in the format of [$route, ...name-value pairs...] (e.g. ['site/index', 'ref' => 1]). Note that the route is with respect to the whole application, instead of relative to a controller or module. yii\helpers\Url::to() will be used to convert the array into a URL.

Any relative URL that starts with a single forward slash "/" will be converted into an absolute one by prepending it with the host info of the current request.

$statusCode integer

The HTTP status code. Defaults to 302. See http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html for details about HTTP status code

$checkAjax boolean

Whether to specially handle AJAX (and PJAX) requests. Defaults to true, meaning if the current request is an AJAX or PJAX request, then calling this method will cause the browser to redirect to the given URL. If this is false, a Location header will be sent, which when received as an AJAX/PJAX response, may NOT cause browser redirection. Takes effect only when request header X-Ie-Redirect-Compatibility is absent.

return $this

The response object itself

refresh() public method

Refreshes the current page.

The effect of this method call is the same as the user pressing the refresh button of his browser (without re-posting data).

In a controller action you may use this method like this:

return Yii::$app->getResponse()->refresh();
public yii\web\Response refresh ( $anchor '' )
$anchor string

The anchor that should be appended to the redirection URL. Defaults to empty. Make sure the anchor starts with '#' if you want to specify it.

return yii\web\Response

The response object itself

send() public method

Sends the response to the client.

public void send ( )
sendContent() protected method

Sends the response content to the client

protected void sendContent ( )
sendContentAsFile() public method

Sends the specified content as a file to the browser.

Note that this method only prepares the response for file sending. The file is not sent until send() is called explicitly or implicitly. The latter is done after you return from a controller action.

See also sendFile() for an example implementation.

public $this sendContentAsFile ( $content, $attachmentName, $options = [] )
$content string

The content to be sent. The existing $content will be discarded.

$attachmentName string

The file name shown to the user.

$options array

Additional options for sending the file. The following options are supported:

  • mimeType: the MIME type of the content. Defaults to 'application/octet-stream'.
  • inline: boolean, whether the browser should open the file within the browser window. Defaults to false, meaning a download dialog will pop up.
return $this

The response object itself

throws yii\web\RangeNotSatisfiableHttpException

if the requested range is not satisfiable

sendCookies() protected method

Sends the cookies to the client.

protected void sendCookies ( )
sendFile() public method

Sends a file to the browser.

Note that this method only prepares the response for file sending. The file is not sent until send() is called explicitly or implicitly. The latter is done after you return from a controller action.

The following is an example implementation of a controller action that allows requesting files from a directory that is not accessible from web:

public function actionFile($filename)
{
    $storagePath = Yii::getAlias('@app/files');

    // check filename for allowed chars (do not allow ../ to avoid security issue: downloading arbitrary files)
    if (!preg_match('/^[a-z0-9]+\.[a-z0-9]+$/i', $filename) || !is_file("$storagePath/$filename")) {
        throw new \yii\web\NotFoundHttpException('The file does not exists.');
    }
    return Yii::$app->response->sendFile("$storagePath/$filename", $filename);
}

See also:

public $this sendFile ( $filePath, $attachmentName null, $options = [] )
$filePath string

The path of the file to be sent.

$attachmentName string

The file name shown to the user. If null, it will be determined from $filePath.

$options array

Additional options for sending the file. The following options are supported:

  • mimeType: the MIME type of the content. If not set, it will be guessed based on $filePath
  • inline: boolean, whether the browser should open the file within the browser window. Defaults to false, meaning a download dialog will pop up.
return $this

The response object itself

sendHeaders() protected method

Sends the response headers to the client

protected void sendHeaders ( )
sendStreamAsFile() public method

Sends the specified stream as a file to the browser.

Note that this method only prepares the response for file sending. The file is not sent until send() is called explicitly or implicitly. The latter is done after you return from a controller action.

See also sendFile() for an example implementation.

public $this sendStreamAsFile ( $handle, $attachmentName, $options = [] )
$handle resource

The handle of the stream to be sent.

$attachmentName string

The file name shown to the user.

$options array

Additional options for sending the file. The following options are supported:

  • mimeType: the MIME type of the content. Defaults to 'application/octet-stream'.
  • inline: boolean, whether the browser should open the file within the browser window. Defaults to false, meaning a download dialog will pop up.
  • fileSize: the size of the content to stream this is useful when size of the content is known and the content is not seekable. Defaults to content size using ftell(). This option is available since version 2.0.4.
return $this

The response object itself

throws yii\web\RangeNotSatisfiableHttpException

if the requested range is not satisfiable

This method will set the corresponding status text if $text is null.

public $this setStatusCode ( $value, $text null )
$value integer

The status code

$text string

The status text. If not set, it will be set automatically based on the status code.

return $this

The response object itself

throws yii\base\InvalidParamException

if the status code is invalid.

setStatusCodeByException() public method (available since version 2.0.12)

Sets the response status code based on the exception.

public $this setStatusCodeByException ( $e )
$e Exception|Error

The exception object.

return $this

The response object itself

throws yii\base\InvalidParamException

if the status code is invalid.

xSendFile() public method

Sends existing file to a browser as a download using x-sendfile.

X-Sendfile is a feature allowing a web application to redirect the request for a file to the webserver that in turn processes the request, this way eliminating the need to perform tasks like reading the file and sending it to the user. When dealing with a lot of files (or very big files) this can lead to a great increase in performance as the web application is allowed to terminate earlier while the webserver is handling the request.

The request is sent to the server through a special non-standard HTTP-header. When the web server encounters the presence of such header it will discard all output and send the file specified by that header using web server internals including all optimizations like caching-headers.

As this header directive is non-standard different directives exists for different web servers applications:

So for this method to work the X-SENDFILE option/module should be enabled by the web server and a proper xHeader should be sent.

Note

This option allows to download files that are not under web folders, and even files that are otherwise protected (deny from all) like .htaccess.

Side effects

If this option is disabled by the web server, when this method is called a download configuration dialog will open but the downloaded file will have 0 bytes.

Known issues

There is a Bug with Internet Explorer 6, 7 and 8 when X-SENDFILE is used over an SSL connection, it will show an error message like this: "Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found.". You can work around this problem by removing the Pragma-header.

Example

Yii::$app->response->xSendFile('/home/user/Pictures/picture1.jpg');

See also sendFile().

public $this xSendFile ( $filePath, $attachmentName null, $options = [] )
$filePath string

File name with full path

$attachmentName string

File name shown to the user. If null, it will be determined from $filePath.

$options array

Additional options for sending the file. The following options are supported:

  • mimeType: the MIME type of the content. If not set, it will be guessed based on $filePath
  • inline: boolean, whether the browser should open the file within the browser window. Defaults to false, meaning a download dialog will pop up.
  • xHeader: string, the name of the x-sendfile header. Defaults to "X-Sendfile".
