/**
|
||
|
|
HTTP defines methods (sometimes referred to as _verbs_) to indicate the desired action to be
|
||
|
|
performed on the identified resource. What this resource represents, whether pre-existing data
|
||
|
|
or data that is generated dynamically, depends on the implementation of the server.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Often, the resource corresponds to a file or the output of an executable residing on the server.
|
||
|
|
The HTTP/1.0 specification defined the `GET`, `POST` and `HEAD` methods and the HTTP/1.1
|
||
|
|
specification added 5 new methods: `OPTIONS`, `PUT`, `DELETE`, `TRACE` and `CONNECT`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By being specified in these documents their semantics are well known and can be depended upon.
|
||
|
|
Any client can use any method and the server can be configured to support any combination of methods.
|
||
|
|
If a method is unknown to an intermediate it will be treated as an unsafe and non-idempotent method.
|
||
|
|
There is no limit to the number of methods that can be defined and this allows for future methods to
|
||
|
|
be specified without breaking existing infrastructure.

a new subordinate of the web resource identified by the URI.

|
|
|
||
|
|
The data `POST`ed might be, for example, an annotation for existing resources;
|
||
|
|
a message for a bulletin board, newsgroup, mailing list, or comment thread;
|
||
|
|
a block of data that is the result of submitting a web form to a data-handling process;

principles on this distinction, saying, _"Web application design should be informed
