The isAJAX method does not exist in filters

[luispastendev]

I need to do a comparison inside a filter to know if $request is of type ajax. but it seems that the method loaded in the callback is not there:

public function before(RequestInterface $request, $args = null){
    if($request->isAJAX()){ // <- not defined method
          ......
    }
}

I think that method should be inside the request since until now it could only be solved in the following way:

if($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH'] == 'XMLHttpRequest'){
    ....
}

greetings

The method definitely exists, IncomingRequest line 279:

public function isAJAX(): bool

You may have something wrong with your installation, or perhaps using a custom Request object? Since Filters receive RequestInterface $request it isn't necessarily an IncomingRequest. Add this to your filter to see what kind of object you're actually getting: dd($request);

I can't reproduce, I used it in https://github.com/samsonasik/ci4-vue project and working OK:

I couldn't reproduce it either. What version of CI are you using?

OMG A thousand apologies for raising this stupid issue, I was distracted, it works correctly but it seems to have been some problem with the linter I'm using! I close the issue :(
