Request

HTTP method constants, and the Request extensions the framework relies on.

Method gives the verbs as documented constants. patchGlobalRequest then adds two properties to the global Request: params, which App fills with the matched path parameters before parsing, and cookies, which parses the Cookie header into a Cookies map on first access.

Like patchGlobalHeaders, this must be installed once at startup, before any request is served.

patchGlobalRequest

function

function patchGlobalRequest();

Installs params and cookies on the global Request. Call it once at startup, before any request is served.

The patch is applied twice over, for the same reason as patchGlobalHeaders. The prototype is extended so requests the runtime creates — every incoming request Bun hands to the server — carry the properties, since those never pass through a constructor the framework controls. The global class is then replaced too, so manually constructed requests can seed their cookies from RequestInit.cookies, which the prototype path has no access to.

The subclass overrides Symbol.hasInstance to defer to the native class, so instanceof Request stays true for requests created outside the patch.

Method

const

const Method;
type Method = OrString<ValueOf<typeof Method>>;

Commonly used HTTP verbs. See MDN Reference for the full spec.

An HTTP method. The Method constants are suggested, but OrString keeps any custom verb assignable.
