Figure 126 — Project Library Information
Projects may define libraries holding revisions of the project such as model servers or databases. Multiple libraries may be referenced to indicate multiple revisions, multiple branches, and/or multiple servers.
If IfcLibraryInformation is provided, the project must be retrievable (provided the user has access permissions) using values as follows:
| IfcLibraryInformation | HTTP Header | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Location | / | fully qualified URL for retrieving (or updating) the project in the content type specified |
| Version | ETag | version stamp for qualifying a particular version, in a format specific to the server, which may be sorted by ordinal for comparison |
| VersionDate | Last-Modified | UTC date and time of file as recorded on server |
| Publisher | (username) | the account handle submitting a project revision is identified by the Identification of IfcPerson |
The following standard HTTP operations may be supported by a server (in addition to any extended operations) for retrieving or updating such data given access rights:
| HTTP | Description |
|---|---|
| OPTIONS | Determine the available HTTP operations. |
| HEAD | Determine the latest version of a project without downloading it. |
| GET | Download the latest version of a project (or specific version with ETag provided). |
| PUT | Replace the project, clearing any version history. Servers may reject or otherwise modify such submitted content. |
| POST | Upload a new version of a project, appending to version history. Servers may reject, merge, or otherwise modify such submitted content. |
| DELETE | Delete the project. |
The following standard MIME types may be supported by a server (in addition to any proprietary formats) for uploading and downloading data for use in the HTTP Accept header:
| MIME Type | Format |
|---|---|
| application/xml | IFC-XML |
| application/step | IFC-SPF |
