# Class `luci.http.conditionals`

## Functions

if_match (req, stat) | 14.24 / If-Match Test whether the given message object contains an "If-Match" header and compare it against the given stat object.
if_modified_since (req, stat) | 14.25 / If-Modified-Since Test whether the given message object contains an "If-Modified-Since" header and compare it against the given stat object.
if_none_match (req, stat) | 14.26 / If-None-Match Test whether the given message object contains an "If-None-Match" header and compare it against the given stat object.
if_range (req, stat) | 14.27 / If-Range The If-Range header is currently not implemented due to the lack of general byte range stuff in luci.http.protocol .
if_unmodified_since (req, stat) | 14.28 / If-Unmodified-Since Test whether the given message object contains an "If-Unmodified-Since" header and compare it against the given stat object.
mk_etag (stat) | Implement 14.19 / ETag.

## Functions

if_match (req, stat)
  14.24 / If-Match Test whether the given message object contains an "If-Match" header and compare it against the given stat object.

  ### Parameters

  - req: HTTP request message object
  - stat: A file.stat object

  ### Return values:

  1. Boolean indicating whether the precondition is ok
  2. Alternative status code if the precondition failed
if_modified_since (req, stat)
  14.25 / If-Modified-Since Test whether the given message object contains an "If-Modified-Since" header and compare it against the given stat object.

  ### Parameters

  - req: HTTP request message object
  - stat: A file.stat object

  ### Return values:

  1. Boolean indicating whether the precondition is ok
  2. Alternative status code if the precondition failed
  3. Table containing extra HTTP headers if the precondition failed
if_none_match (req, stat)
  14.26 / If-None-Match Test whether the given message object contains an "If-None-Match" header and compare it against the given stat object.

  ### Parameters

  - req: HTTP request message object
  - stat: A file.stat object

  ### Return values:

  1. Boolean indicating whether the precondition is ok
  2. Alternative status code if the precondition failed
  3. Table containing extra HTTP headers if the precondition failed
if_range (req, stat)
  14.27 / If-Range The If-Range header is currently not implemented due to the lack of general byte range stuff in luci.http.protocol . This function will always return false, 412 to indicate a failed precondition.

  ### Parameters

  - req: HTTP request message object
  - stat: A file.stat object

  ### Return values:

  1. Boolean indicating whether the precondition is ok
  2. Alternative status code if the precondition failed
if_unmodified_since (req, stat)
  14.28 / If-Unmodified-Since Test whether the given message object contains an "If-Unmodified-Since" header and compare it against the given stat object.

  ### Parameters

  - req: HTTP request message object
  - stat: A file.stat object

  ### Return values:

  1. Boolean indicating whether the precondition is ok
  2. Alternative status code if the precondition failed
mk_etag (stat)
  Implement 14.19 / ETag.

  ### Parameters

  - stat: A file.stat structure

  ### Return value:

  String containing the generated tag suitable for ETag headers
