ReadRequest Method

Reads the AS2 request from the HTTP session.

Syntax

as2receiver.readRequest([callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

ReadRequest reads the AS2 request from the content of the Request (and optionally the RequestHeadersString) property. The class will parse the request from Request. The headers will be read into RequestHeaders. Finally, the class will parse the headers and populate the following properties:

• AS2From
• AS2To
• AS2VersionIncoming
• MessageId
• MDNTo
• ReceiptDeliveryOption
• RequestedSignatureProtocol
• RequestedMICAlgorithms

ParseRequest may be used to scan the entire message.
