Expand description

If-Range header, defined in RFC 7233 §3.2

If a client has a partial copy of a representation and wishes to have an up-to-date copy of the entire representation, it could use the Range header field with a conditional GET (using either or both of If-Unmodified-Since and If-Match.) However, if the precondition fails because the representation has been modified, the client would then have to make a second request to obtain the entire current representation.

The If-Range header field allows a client to "short-circuit" the second request. Informally, its meaning is as follows: if the representation is unchanged, send me the part(s) that I am requesting in Range; otherwise, send me the entire representation.

ABNF

If-Range = entity-tag / HTTP-date

Example Values

Examples

use actix_web::HttpResponse;
use actix_web::http::header::{EntityTag, IfRange};

let mut builder = HttpResponse::Ok();
builder.insert_header(
    IfRange::EntityTag(
        EntityTag::new(false, "abc".to_owned())
    )
);
use std::time::{Duration, SystemTime};
use actix_web::{http::header::IfRange, HttpResponse};

let mut builder = HttpResponse::Ok();
let fetched = SystemTime::now() - Duration::from_secs(60 * 60 * 24);
builder.insert_header(
    IfRange::Date(fetched.into())
);

Variants
