#15668: Generic views should provide a HEAD implementation
---------------------------+---------------------------
Reporter: j4mie | Owner: nobody

Component: Generic views | Version: 1.2

Currently, HEAD requests are responded to with `405 METHOD NOT ALLOWED`
and an `Allow: get` header.
{{{
$ curl -I localhost:8000
HTTP/1.0 405 METHOD NOT ALLOWED
Date: Wed, 23 Mar 2011 13:04:05 GMT
Server: WSGIServer/0.1 Python/2.6.1
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Allow: get
}}}
Generic views (or perhaps even the base View class?) should provide a
`head()` implementation that should probably just call the `get` method
(if present) and then throw away the content.
