Implementation Notes

This feature is useful when a variety of information is required about the page. If only one type of information is needed, such as files or page security settings, it is more efficient to call the feature specifically designed for this purpose.

C# Code Sample: Retrieve Page Info

The following code example retrieves a summary of all information available for the home page:

Sample Code

Plug p = Plug.New("http://deki-hayes/@api/deki");
p.At("users", "authenticate").WithCredentials("admin", "password").Get();
p.At("pages", "home").Get();

Retrieve the page "Page/SubPage":

Plug p = Plug.New("http://deki-hayes/@api/deki");
p.At("users", "authenticate").WithCredentials("admin", "password").Get();
string pageName = XUri.DoubleEncodeSegment("Page/Subpage");
p.At("pages", "=" + pageName).Get();

Curl Code Sample: Retrieve Page Info

The following command retrieves aggregate information of page "foo":

Sample Code

curl -u username:password -i http://mindtouch.address/@api/deki/pages/=foo

-i
Outputs the HTTP response headers. Useful for debugging.
