php://input

My purpose is that the same file/script processes also PUT requests.

My question is if there is a way the script can "understand" what type of request is made,POST or PUT.

 

Because different code/logic must apply for POST and different for PUT,unless the solution being creating a new file for the

PUT request.

 

Thanks.

I haven't used that technique for reading response bodies, but according to the docs, since it just reads the raw request body, it should be accessible the same regardless of the request method (POST vs PUT, for example)

 

For HTTP requests for my API, I have chosen to use the Slim micro framework for handling various HTTP requests and routing accordingly.

You'll find the request method in the $_SERVER array.http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.server.php
