-<h1 class="lined-header"><span>Reading the request body</span></h1>
-
-<p>The request body can be read using the Req object.</p>
-<p>Cowboy will not attempt to read the body until requested. You need to call the body reading functions in order to retrieve it.</p>
-<p>Cowboy will not cache the body, it is therefore only possible to read it once.</p>
-<p>You are not required to read it, however. If a body is present and was not read, Cowboy will either cancel or skip its download, depending on the protocol.</p>
-<p>Cowboy provides functions for reading the body raw, and read and parse form urlencoded or <a href="../multipart">multipart bodies</a>. The latter is covered in its own chapter.</p>
-<h2 id="_request_body_presence">Request body presence</h2>
-<p>Not all requests come with a body. You can check for the presence of a request body with this function:</p>

-<pre><tt><b><font color="#000000">cowboy_req:has_body</font></b>(<font color="#009900">Req</font>)<font color="#990000">.</font></tt></pre>
-</div></div>
-<p>It returns <code>true</code> if there is a body; <code>false</code> otherwise.</p>
-<p>In practice, this function is rarely used. When the method is <code>POST</code>, <code>PUT</code> or <code>PATCH</code>, the request body is often required by the application, which should just attempt to read it directly.</p>
-<h2 id="_request_body_length">Request body length</h2>
-<p>You can obtain the length of the body:</p>

-</div></div>
-<p>Note that the length may not be known in advance. In that case <code>undefined</code> will be returned. This can happen with HTTP/1.1&apos;s chunked transfer-encoding, or HTTP/2 when no content-length was provided.</p>
-<p>Cowboy will update the body length in the Req object once the body has been read completely. A length will always be returned when attempting to call this function after reading the body completely.</p>
-<h2 id="_reading_the_body">Reading the body</h2>
-<p>You can read the entire body with one function call:</p>

-</div></div>
-<p>Cowboy returns an <code>ok</code> tuple when the body has been read fully.</p>
-<p>By default, Cowboy will attempt to read up to 8MB of data, for up to 15 seconds. The call will return once Cowboy has read at least 8MB of data, or at the end of the 15 seconds period.</p>
-<p>These values can be customized. For example, to read only up to 1MB for up to 5 seconds:</p>

-</div></div>
-<p>You may also disable the length limit:</p>

-</div></div>
-<p>This makes the function wait 15 seconds and return with whatever arrived during that period. This is not recommended for public facing applications.</p>
-<p>These two options can effectively be used to control the rate of transmission of the request body.</p>
-<h2 id="_streaming_the_body">Streaming the body</h2>
-<p>When the body is too large, the first call will return a <code>more</code> tuple instead of <code>ok</code>. You can call the function again to read more of the body, reading it one chunk at a time.</p>
