headers

The request/response headers object.

Key-value pairs of header names and values. Header names are lower-cased.

// Prints something like:
//
// { 'user-agent': 'curl/7.22.0',
//   host: '127.0.0.1:8000',
//   accept: '*' }
console.log(request.headers);

Duplicates in raw headers are handled in the following ways, depending on the header name:

• Duplicates of age, authorization, content-length, content-type, etag, expires, from, host, if-modified-since, if-unmodified-since, last-modified, location, max-forwards, proxy-authorization, referer, retry-after, server, or user-agent are discarded. To allow duplicate values of the headers listed above to be joined, use the option joinDuplicateHeaders in {@link request} and {@link createServer}. See RFC 9110 Section 5.3 for more information.

• set-cookie is always an array. Duplicates are added to the array.

• For duplicate cookie headers, the values are joined together with ; .

• For all other headers, the values are joined together with , .
