public class HttpRequestDecoder
extends HttpObjectDecoder

Decodes ByteBufs into HttpRequests and HttpContents.

Parameters that prevents excessive memory consumption

Name	Meaning
maxInitialLineLength	The maximum length of the initial line (e.g. "GET / HTTP/1.0") If the length of the initial line exceeds this value, a TooLongHttpLineException will be raised.
maxHeaderSize	The maximum length of all headers. If the sum of the length of each header exceeds this value, a TooLongHttpHeaderException will be raised.
maxChunkSize	The maximum length of the content or each chunk. If the content length exceeds this value, the transfer encoding of the decoded request will be converted to 'chunked' and the content will be split into multiple HttpContents. If the transfer encoding of the HTTP request is 'chunked' already, each chunk will be split into smaller chunks if the length of the chunk exceeds this value. If you prefer not to handle HttpContents in your handler, insert HttpObjectAggregator after this decoder in the ChannelPipeline.

Parameters that control parsing behavior

Name	Default value	Meaning
allowDuplicateContentLengths		When set to false, will reject any messages that contain multiple Content-Length header fields. When set to true, will allow multiple Content-Length headers only if they are all the same decimal value. The duplicated field-values will be replaced with a single valid Content-Length field. See RFC 7230, Section 3.3.2.
allowPartialChunks		If the length of a chunk exceeds the ByteBufs readable bytes and allowPartialChunks is set to true, the chunk will be split into multiple HttpContents. Otherwise, if the chunk size does not exceed maxChunkSize and allowPartialChunks is set to false, the ByteBuf is not decoded into an HttpContent until the readable bytes are greater or equal to the chunk size.
