Accessing The Request

A instance of the current HTTP request as a \wiggum\http\Request object is always passed into your Controller. The current request instance will automatically be populated for you:

<?php
namespace app\components\helloWorld;

use \wiggum\model\Component;
use \wiggum\model\Request;
use \wiggum\model\Response;

class HelloWorld extends Controller 
{
	
	// ...
	
	/**
     *
     * @param  Request  $request
     * @param  Response  $response
     * @return Response
     */
	public function doDefault(Request $request, Response $response) 
	{
		$name = $request->getParameter('name');
		
		return $response;
	}
	
	// ...
}

Route parameters are also stored in the Request object and can be retreived with $request->getParameter('name');.
