val application_script : ?defer:bool -> ?async:bool -> unit -> [> `Script ] Eliom_content.Html.elt

The function application_name () returns a <script> node that represents the javascript part of the application. If you do not include this script in the <head> node of your page, it will be automatically added at the end of the <head> node.

val application_name : string

Unique identifier for this application. Currently, it is just the application name as defined by Appl_params.application_name.

Warning: do not mix up with the "application instance id", that is unique for each instance of the application on a client.

val is_initial_request : unit -> bool

Checks during a request whether it is the initial request of the client process in this Eliom application.

type app_id

The type appl is an abstract type for identifying an application. It usually used a phantom parameter for application_content.

Service registration

val register : ?app:string -> ?scope:[< Eliom_common.scope ] -> ?options:options -> ?charset:string -> ?code:int -> ?content_type:string -> ?headers:Cohttp.Header.t -> ?secure_session:bool -> service: ('get, 'post, _, _, _, Eliom_service.non_ext, Eliom_service.reg, _, _, _, return) Eliom_service.t -> ?error_handler:((string * exn) list -> page Lwt.t) -> ('get -> 'post -> page Lwt.t) -> unit

The function register ~service handler associates the service to the function handler. The handler function takes two parameters, the GET and POST parameters of the current HTTP request, and should return the corresponding page.

The optional parameter ~scope is Eliom_common.global_scope by default. See the Eliom manual for detailed description <<a_manual chapter="server-services" fragment="scope"|of different scopes>>.

The optional parameter ~options is specific to each output module. See the type description for more information.

The optional parameters ?charset, ?code, ?content_type and ?headers can be used to modify the HTTP answer sent by Eliom. Use this with care.

The optional parameter ~secure_session has no effect for scope Eliom_common.global_scope. With other scopes, the parameter is used to force the session service table in which the handler will be registered. By default, the service is registered in the non-secure session if the current request's protocol is http, or in the secure session if the protocol is https. If set to false (resp. true) the handler will be stored in the non-secure (resp. secure) session. See the Eliom manual for an introduction to <<a_manual chapter="server-state"|secure state>>.

The optional parameter ~error_handler is used to specialize the error page when actual parameters aren't compatible with the expected type. The default error handler is fun l -> raise (Eliom_common.Eliom_Typing_Error l) .

val send : ?options:options -> ?charset:string -> ?code:int -> ?content_type:string -> ?headers:Cohttp.Header.t -> page -> result Lwt.t

The function send page builds the HTTP frame corresponding to page. This may be used for example in a service handler registered with Eliom_registration.Any.register, or when building a custom output module.

val create : ?app:string -> ?scope:[< Eliom_common.scope ] -> ?options:options -> ?charset:string -> ?code:int -> ?content_type:string -> ?headers:Cohttp.Header.t -> ?secure_session:bool -> ?https:bool -> ?name:string -> ?csrf_safe:bool -> ?csrf_scope:[< Eliom_common.user_scope ] -> ?csrf_secure:bool -> ?max_use:int -> ?timeout:float -> meth:('m, 'gp, 'gn, 'pp, 'pn, 'tipo, 'gp_) Eliom_service.meth -> path:('att, 'co, 'gp_) Eliom_service.path_option -> ?error_handler:((string * exn) list -> page Lwt.t) -> ('gp -> 'pp -> page Lwt.t) -> ('gp, 'pp, 'm, 'att, 'co, Eliom_service.non_ext, Eliom_service.reg, 'tipo, 'gn, 'pn, return) Eliom_service.t

Create a service and register it at the same time. It calls Eliom_service.create and then performs Eliom_registration_sigs.S.register. Returns the service.

val create_attached_get : ?app:string -> ?scope:[< Eliom_common.scope ] -> ?options:options -> ?charset:string -> ?code:int -> ?content_type:string -> ?headers:Cohttp.Header.t -> ?secure_session:bool -> ?https:bool -> ?name:string -> ?csrf_safe:bool -> ?csrf_scope:[< Eliom_common.user_scope ] -> ?csrf_secure:bool -> ?max_use:int -> ?timeout:float -> fallback: (unit, unit, Eliom_service.get, Eliom_service.att, Eliom_service.non_co, Eliom_service.non_ext, _, [ `WithoutSuffix ], unit, unit, return) Eliom_service.t -> get_params:('gp, [ `WithoutSuffix ], 'gn) Eliom_parameter.params_type -> ?error_handler:((string * exn) list -> page Lwt.t) -> ('gp -> unit -> page Lwt.t) -> ('gp, unit, Eliom_service.get, Eliom_service.att, Eliom_service.co, Eliom_service.non_ext, Eliom_service.reg, [ `WithoutSuffix ], 'gn, unit, return) Eliom_service.t

Create an attached service and register it at the same time. It calls Eliom_service.create_attached_get and then performs Eliom_registration_sigs.S.register. Returns the new service.

val create_attached_post : ?app:string -> ?scope:[< Eliom_common.scope ] -> ?options:options -> ?charset:string -> ?code:int -> ?content_type:string -> ?headers:Cohttp.Header.t -> ?secure_session:bool -> ?https:bool -> ?name:string -> ?csrf_safe:bool -> ?csrf_scope:[< Eliom_common.user_scope ] -> ?csrf_secure:bool -> ?max_use:int -> ?timeout:float -> fallback: ('gp, unit, Eliom_service.get, Eliom_service.att, Eliom_service.non_co, Eliom_service.non_ext, _, [ `WithoutSuffix ], 'gn, unit, return) Eliom_service.t -> post_params:('pp, [ `WithoutSuffix ], 'pn) Eliom_parameter.params_type -> ?error_handler:((string * exn) list -> page Lwt.t) -> ('gp -> 'pp -> page Lwt.t) -> ('gp, 'pp, Eliom_service.post, Eliom_service.att, Eliom_service.co, Eliom_service.non_ext, Eliom_service.reg, [ `WithoutSuffix ], 'gn, 'pn, return) Eliom_service.t

Create an attached POST service and register it at the same time. It calls Eliom_service.create_attached_post and then performs Eliom_registration_sigs.S.register. Returns the new service.
