Request headers

  • API-Version (optional) — Header-based API version selection. Omit it, send an empty value, or send 1.0.0; surrounding whitespace is ignored.
  • Idempotency-Key (optional) — Accepted for clients that attach a key uniformly. GET, HEAD, and OPTIONS are already safe and intrinsically idempotent, so read responses are not stored in an idempotency replay cache.

Examples

Examples use synthetic fixture values. Replace fixture identifiers with public IDs returned by the service. Request bodies and precise locations are transient; keep them out of logs.

curl

curl --fail-with-body --max-time 30 --max-filesize 16777216 --head 'https://irvinebroque.com/api/movies.json'

TypeScript

import { PublicApi } from '@irvinebroque/public-api';
const api = new PublicApi();
const result = await api.movies.listHead({});
console.log(result.status, result.headers.get('content-type')); // Keep transient capabilities in memory.

CLI

irvinebroque movies list-head

The SDK preserves status, headers, and the server envelope. A 304 has no fresh body. Errors retain structured problem details; ordinary error messages omit response details. Responses are limited to 16 MiB and requests time out after 30 seconds by default.
