An idea to put URL query parameters in the body pf the request.

It is useful to avoid the limitations of the URL length. Another use case is a custom DSL inside the request body.

At the end, it's a less readable than GET but more powerful.

The W3C Technical Architecture group eventually decided to resolve the architectural problem that if an HTTP response code of 200 (a successful retrieval) was given, that indicated that the URI indeed was for an information resource, but with no such response, or with a different code, no such assumption could be made.

This repository contains the code for our paper: "Who's Breaking the Rules? Studying Conformance to the HTTP Specifications and its Security Impact" ACM ASIACCS 2024. It contains a test suite for HTTP conformance tests of responses and test runners to run it on both local web servers and on real websites.

A great resource to get into them

Hurl is a command line tool that runs HTTP requests defined in a simple plain text format.

It can asserts results.

A request method is considered idempotent if the intended effect on the server of multiple identical requests with that method is the same as the effect for a single such request

It supplants the previous 8601 for http api errors.

In the hypertext architecture, when making a reference, such as a hypertext link, we don't just refer to an information resource. Well, we can, but we can also refer to a particular part of or view of a resource. The string which, within the document, defines the other end of the link has two parts. It has the identifier of the document as a whole, and then optionally it has a hash sign "#" and a string representing the view of the object required.

Avoid a round trip for the slow start TCP algorithm. Depending of the internet connexion it can save 100s of ms.

A draft that proposes to emit the CO2 emission of a request

It follows best practices :)

One status code, one http code.
Similar to Htto Status Cats... for dogs.
