# File lib/open-uri.rb, line 523
def charset
  type, *parameters = content_type_parse
  if pair = parameters.assoc('charset')
    pair.last.downcase
  elsif block_given?
    yield
  elsif type && %r{\Atext/} =~ type &&
        @base_uri && /\Ahttp\z/i =~ @base_uri.scheme
    "iso-8859-1" # RFC2616 3.7.1
  else
    nil
  end
end

content_encoding() click to toggle source

# File lib/open-uri.rb, line 541
def content_encoding
  vs = @metas['content-encoding']
  if vs && %r{\A#{RE_LWS}?#{RE_TOKEN}#{RE_LWS}?(?:,#{RE_LWS}?#{RE_TOKEN}#{RE_LWS}?)*}o =~ (v = vs.join(', '))
    v.scan(RE_TOKEN).map {|content_coding| content_coding.downcase}
