StandaloneWSResponse

The response body decoded as String, using a simple algorithm to guess the encoding.

This decodes the body to a string representation based on the following algorithm:

1. Look for a "charset" parameter on the Content-Type. If it exists, set charset to its value and go to step 3.
2. If the Content-Type is of type "text", set charset to "ISO-8859-1"; else set charset to "UTF-8".
3. Decode the raw bytes of the body using charset.

Note that this does not take into account any special cases for specific content types. For example, for application/json, we do not support encoding autodetection and will trust the charset parameter if provided..

Get only one cookie, using the cookie name.

Get all the cookies.

Returns the current headers for this response.

The response status code.

The response status message.

Get the underlying response object.

Returns the URI for this response, which can differ from the request one in case of redirection.

The response body as the given type. This renders as the given type. You must have a BodyReadable in implicit scope.

The simplest use case is

import play.api.libs.ws.StandaloneWSResponse
import play.api.libs.ws.DefaultBodyReadables._

def responseBodyAsString(response: StandaloneWSResponse): String =
 response.body[String]

But you can also render as JSON

// not compilable: requires `play-ws-standalone-json` dependency
import play.api.libs.json.JsValue
import play.api.libs.ws.StandaloneWSResponse

def responseBodyAsJson(response: StandaloneWSResponse): JsValue =
 response.body[JsValue]

or as binary:

import org.apache.pekko.util.ByteString
import play.api.libs.ws.StandaloneWSResponse
import play.api.libs.ws.DefaultBodyReadables._

def responseBodyAsByteString(response: StandaloneWSResponse): ByteString =
 response.body[ByteString]

Get the value of the header with the specified name. If there are more than one values for this header, the first value is returned. If there are no values, than a None is returned.

Get all the values of header with the specified name. If there are no values for the header with the specified name, than an empty sequence is returned.
