Implementation Notes

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

Code Samples

The following code example retrieves the headers for the file called "myfile.jpg" on the home page:

Plug p = Plug.New("http://deki-hayes/@api/deki");
p.At("users", "authenticate").WithCredentials("admin", "password").Get();
DreamMessage msg = p.At("pages", "home", "files", "=myfile%252ejpg").Invoke("HEAD", DreamMessage.Ok());

Sample output:

Connection=close
