Updated Spec.
Changes:
-
Moved files into the form as that is how that is pushed in if you are doing multiple files
-
Support multiple files of the same name
-
Support multiple headers of the same name
-
Support multiple form fields of the same name
-
Specified that the get function is just a helper method. I think obj.header.get(“content”) is cleaner IMO than HashMap<Text, [Text]>.ofList(“content”, myList); (And I can’t actually find ofList in the base library…is this something new @nomeata ?)
