HTTP HEAD request

#1

Hello everyone! I’m trying to handle the HTTP request HEAD using SLIM and it doesn’t seems to work like other methods. I can’t have $app->head like I would with GET, POST, PUT or DELETE.

What is the the (best) way to achieve this?

Thanks!

There is indeed no App::head method.

You can use App::map to create a route for requests using the HEAD method:

$app->map(['HEAD'], '/test-head', function(Request $request, Response $response) {
    return $response->withHeader('X-Test', 'head');
});

Using App::any will actually not work, as it will only match the methods GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE and OPTIONS.

It worked! Thanks a lot!
