ParamsReturnRelatedSource
Returns information about the type of content that the client is requesting.

Parameters

  • $type mixed If not specified, returns the media type name that the client prefers, using content negotiation. If a media type name (string) is passed, returns `true` or `false`, indicating whether or not that type is accepted by the client at all. If `true`, returns the raw content types from the `Accept` header, parsed into an array and sorted by client preference.

Returns

string Returns a simple type name if the type is registered (i.e. `'json'`), or a fully-qualified content-type if not (i.e. `'image/jpeg'`), or a boolean or array, depending on the value of `$type`.
