# Snippets API Reference

## Request Object

### HTTP Properties

```javascript
request.method // GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc.
request.url // Full URL string
request.headers // Headers object
request.body // ReadableStream (for POST/PUT)
request.cf // Cloudflare properties (see below)
```

### URL Operations

```javascript
const url = new URL(request.url)
url.hostname // "example.com"
url.pathname // "/path/to/page"
url.search // "?query=value"
url.searchParams.get('q') // "value"
url.searchParams.set('q', 'new')
url.searchParams.delete('q')
```

### Header Operations

```javascript
// Read headers
request.headers.get('User-Agent')
request.headers.has('Authorization')
request.headers.getSetCookie() // Get all Set-Cookie headers

// Modify headers (create new request)
const modifiedRequest = new Request(request)
modifiedRequest.headers.set('X-Custom', 'value')
modifiedRequest.headers.delete('X-Remove')
```

### Cloudflare Properties (`request.cf`)

Access Cloudflare-specific metadata about the request:

```javascript
// Geolocation
request.cf.city // "San Francisco"
request.cf.continent // "NA"
request.cf.country // "US"
request.cf.region // "California" or "CA"
request.cf.regionCode // "CA"
request.cf.postalCode // "94102"
request.cf.latitude // "37.7749"
request.cf.longitude // "-122.4194"
request.cf.timezone // "America/Los_Angeles"
request.cf.metroCode // "807" (DMA code)

// Network
request.cf.colo // "SFO" (airport code of datacenter)
request.cf.asn // 13335 (ASN number)
request.cf.asOrganization // "Cloudflare, Inc."

// Bot Management (if enabled)
request.cf.botManagement.score // 1-99 (1=bot, 99=human)
request.cf.botManagement.verified_bot // true/false
request.cf.botManagement.static_resource // true/false

// TLS/HTTP version
request.cf.tlsVersion // "TLSv1.3"
request.cf.tlsCipher // "AEAD-AES128-GCM-SHA256"
request.cf.httpProtocol // "HTTP/2"

// Request metadata
request.cf.requestPriority // "weight=192;exclusive=0"
```

**Use cases**: Geo-routing, bot detection, security decisions, analytics.

## Response Object

### Response Constructors

```javascript
// Plain text
new Response('Hello', { status: 200 })

// JSON
Response.json({ key: 'value' }, { status: 200 })

// HTML
new Response('<h1>Hi</h1>', {
  status: 200,
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'text/html' },
})

// Redirect
Response.redirect('https://example.com', 301) // or 302

// Stream (pass through)
new Response(response.body, response)
```

### Response Headers

```javascript
// Create modified response
const newResponse = new Response(response.body, response)

// Set/modify headers
newResponse.headers.set('X-Custom', 'value')
newResponse.headers.append('Set-Cookie', 'session=abc; Path=/')
newResponse.headers.delete('Server')

// Common headers
newResponse.headers.set('Cache-Control', 'public, max-age=3600')
newResponse.headers.set('Content-Type', 'application/json')
```

### Response Properties

```javascript
response.status // 200, 404, 500, etc.
response.statusText // "OK", "Not Found", etc.
response.headers // Headers object
response.body // ReadableStream
response.ok // true if status 200-299
response.redirected // true if redirected
```

- `URL` / `URLSearchParams` - URL manipulation
- `Headers` - Header manipulation
- `TextEncoder` / `TextDecoder` - Text encoding
- `crypto.subtle` - Web Crypto API (hashing, signing)
- `crypto.randomUUID()` - UUID generation

### ❌ Not Supported in Snippets

- `addEventListener` - Use `export default { async fetch() {}` pattern

## Snippet Structure

```javascript
export default {
  async fetch(request) {
    // Your logic here
    const response = await fetch(request)
    return response // or modified response
  },
}
```
