The Cache-Control: no-cache HTTP/1.1 header field is also intended for use in requests made by the client. It is a means for the browser to tell the server and any intermediate caches that it wants a fresh version of the resource. The Pragma: no-cache header field, defined in the HTTP/1.0 spec, has the same purpose. It, however, is only defined ...
In computing, POST is a request method supported by HTTP used by the World Wide Web. By design, the POST request method requests that a web server accepts the data enclosed in the body of the request message, most likely for storing it. [1] It is often used when uploading a file or when submitting a completed web form.
JSON Schema specifies a JSON-based format to define the structure of JSON data for validation, documentation, and interaction control. It provides a contract for the JSON data required by a given application and how that data can be modified. [ 29 ]
CGI programs precompiled to machine code, e.g. precompiled from C or C++ programs, rather than CGI programs executed by an interpreter, e.g. Perl, PHP or Python programs. Web server extensions such as Apache modules (e.g. mod_perl , mod_php and mod_python ), NSAPI plugins, and ISAPI plugins which allow long-running application processes ...
To allow intermediate HTTP nodes (proxy servers, web caches, etc.) to accomplish their functions, some of the HTTP headers (found in HTTP requests/responses) are managed hop-by-hop whereas other HTTP headers are managed end-to-end (managed only by the source client and by the target web server).
JSON streaming comprises communications protocols to delimit JSON objects built upon lower-level stream-oriented protocols (such as TCP), that ensures individual JSON objects are recognized, when the server and clients use the same one (e.g. implicitly coded in). This is necessary as JSON is a non-concatenative protocol (the concatenation of ...
[9] start_response is a callable itself, taking two positional parameters, status and response_headers. Line 2 calls start_response, specifying "200 OK" as the HTTP status and a "Content-Type" response header. Line 3 makes the function into a generator. The body of the response is returned as an iterable of byte strings.
The range header is used by HTTP clients to enable resuming of interrupted downloads, or split a download into multiple simultaneous streams. 207 Multi-Status (WebDAV; RFC 4918) The message body that follows is by default an XML message and can contain a number of separate response codes, depending on how many sub-requests were made.
