  2. 8.x drupal/core/vendor/symfony/http-foundation/Symfony/Component/HttpFoundation/Request.php \Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request::getMethod()

Gets the request "intended" method.

If the X-HTTP-Method-Override header is set, and if the method is a POST, then it is used to determine the "real" intended HTTP method.

The _method request parameter can also be used to determine the HTTP method, but only if enableHttpMethodParameterOverride() has been called.

The method is always an uppercased string.
