    11  # Purge methods: POST HTTP verb
    12  
    13  This rule enforces that all `Purge` RPCs use the `POST` HTTP verb, as
    14  mandated in [AIP-165][].
    15  
    16  ## Details
    17  
    18  This rule looks at any message beginning with `Purge`, and complains
    19  if the HTTP verb is anything other than `POST`. It _does_ check additional
    20  bindings if they are present.
    21  
    22  ## Examples
    23  
    24  **Incorrect** code for this rule:
    25  
    26  ```proto
    27  // Incorrect.
    28  rpc PurgeBooks(PurgeBooksRequest) returns (google.longrunning.Operation) {
    29    option (google.api.http) = {
    30      get: "/v1/{parent=publishers/*}/books:purge"  // Should be `post:`.
    31    };
    32    option (google.longrunning.operation_info) = {
    33      response_type: "PurgeBooksResponse"
    34      metadata_type: "PurgeBooksMetadata"
    35    };
    36  }
    37  ```
    38  
    39  **Correct** code for this rule:
    40  
    41  ```proto
    42  // Correct.
    43  rpc PurgeBooks(PurgeBooksRequest) returns (google.longrunning.Operation) {
    44    option (google.api.http) = {
    45      post: "/v1/{parent=publishers/*}/books:purge"
    46      body: "*"
    47    };
    48    option (google.longrunning.operation_info) = {
    49      response_type: "PurgeBooksResponse"
    50      metadata_type: "PurgeBooksMetadata"
    51    };
    52  }
    53  ```
    54  
    55  ## Disabling
    56  
    57  If you need to violate this rule, use a leading comment above the method.
    58  Remember to also include an [aip.dev/not-precedent][] comment explaining why.
    59  
    60  ```proto
    61  // (-- api-linter: core::0165::http-method=disabled
    62  //     aip.dev/not-precedent: We need to do this because reasons. --)
    63  rpc PurgeBooks(PurgeBooksRequest) returns (google.longrunning.Operation) {
    64    option (google.api.http) = {
    65      get: "/v1/{parent=publishers/*}/books:purge"
    66    };
    67    option (google.longrunning.operation_info) = {
    68      response_type: "PurgeBooksResponse"
    69      metadata_type: "PurgeBooksMetadata"
    70    };
    71  }
    72  ```
    73  
    74  If you need to violate this rule for an entire file, place the comment at the
    75  top of the file.
