# Interfaces

The purpose of this list is to help in finding the methods when working with PSR-7. This can be considered as a cheatsheet for PSR-7 interfaces.

The interfaces defined in PSR-7 are the following:

| Class Name | Description |
|---|---|
| [Psr\Http\Message\MessageInterface](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-7/#psrhttpmessagemessageinterface) | Representation of a HTTP message |
| [Psr\Http\Message\RequestInterface](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-7/#psrhttpmessagerequestinterface) | Representation of an outgoing, client-side request. |
| [Psr\Http\Message\ServerRequestInterface](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-7/#psrhttpmessageserverrequestinterface) | Representation of an incoming, server-side HTTP request. | 
| [Psr\Http\Message\ResponseInterface](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-7/#psrhttpmessageresponseinterface) | Representation of an outgoing, server-side response. |
| [Psr\Http\Message\StreamInterface](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-7/#psrhttpmessagestreaminterface) | Describes a data stream |
| [Psr\Http\Message\UriInterface](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-7/#psrhttpmessageuriinterface) | Value object representing a URI. |
| [Psr\Http\Message\UploadedFileInterface](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-7/#psrhttpmessageuploadedfileinterface) | Value object representing a file uploaded through an HTTP request. |

> `RequestInterface`, `ServerRequestInterface`, `ResponseInterface` extend `MessageInterface`  because the `Request` and the `Response` are `HTTP Messages`.
> When using `ServerRequestInterface`, both `RequestInterface` and `Psr\Http\Message\MessageInterface` methods are considered.
