Research direction
Start by reviewing the dependent ETag implementation in issue #40 and the server-side cache proposal in issue #60, then consult the linked RFC sections for each conditional-request header. Done means the REST implementation supports If-Match, If-Modified-Since, If-None-Match, If-Range, If-Unmodified-Since, and Last-Modified using the relevant response information.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
This feature is dependent on the implementation of the ETag see #40
Implement capabilities required for conditional requests:
- If-Match,
- If-Modified-Since,
- If-None-Match,
- If-Range,
- If-Unmodified-Since and
- Last-Modified (Not exactly a conditional request but utilizes the same mechanisms)
Because these requests require knowledge of the actual response and to prevent us having to re-compose the response for every question this will benefit considerably from a server side cache solution as suggested in #60
