The representation and behaviour of containers in Solid corresponds to LDP Basic Container and MUST be supported by server. [Source]
-Servers can determine the value of the HTTP Last-Modified
header field in response to HEAD
and GET
requests targeting a container based on modifications to the selected representation or changes to containment triples.
Servers can determine the value of the HTTP Last-Modified
header field in response to HEAD
and GET
requests targeting a container based on changes to containment triples.
The Last-Modified
of a container will not change when other parts of the container changes. This is to avoid the instant propagation of changes all the way to the root container. As Last-Modified
cannot be reliably used to check whether the container representation has changed in any way. In future versions of this specification, this design may be revisited.
