The PATCH method is used to apply partial modifications to a resource.

The PATCH method

The PATCH method requests that a set of changes described in the request entity be applied to the resource identified by the Request- URI. The set of changes is represented in a format called a "patch document" identified by a media type. If the Request-URI does not point to an existing resource, the server MAY create a new resource, depending on the patch document type (whether it can logically modify a null resource) and permissions, etc.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
x <- HttpClient$new(url = "https://hb.opencpu.org")
x$patch(path = 'patch', body = list(hello = "mars"))
} # }
