@ -28,6 +28,22 @@ Package information can be obtained by issuing HTTP GET requests of the form
+/rpc?v=5&type=info&arg[]=_pkg1_&arg[]=_pkg2_&...+ where _pkg1_, _pkg2_, ...
are the names of packages to retrieve package details for.
Request Types
-------------
The GET method here parses arguments in an odd way due to `v=5` historically
supporting this ordering. Later versions will remove support for this kind
of parsing, and the POST method is our first step toward solving it.
* `GET`
- Search arguments are constructed using the last found argument(s).
If the last related argument is `arg[]`, we collect arguments from
end to start until we hit a non-`arg[]` argument. If the last related
argument is `arg`, it used as the one and only argument.
* `POST`
- Search arguments are constructed using `[arg] + args` where
`args == arg[]`.
