Implementation Notes

The Content-Length and Content-Type headers provide information about the retrieved file.

Use GET:files to retrieve a list of files across the site or GET:pages/{pageid}/files to retrieve the files on a specified page.

Code Samples

The following code example retrieves the headers for the file with ID 456:

Plug p = Plug.New("http://deki-hayes/@api/deki");
p.At("users", "authenticate").WithCredentials("admin", "password").Get();
DreamMessage msg = p.At("files", "456").Invoke("HEAD", DreamMessage.Ok());

Sample output:

Connection=close
Content-Length=110326
Content-Type=image/jpeg
Date=Wed, 14 May 2008 22:31:30 GMT
Server=Dream-HTTPAPI/1.5.2.25231 Microsoft-HTTPAPI/1.0
Via=1.0 deki-hayes
