The Return to Ritherdon API has HTTP-Push requests. I have not
provided any functions to make these types of requests because I do
not want to run the risk of breaking that system. The API is part of
an active art exhibition and I do not want to corrupt the data it
stores/created in any way.

I have ran this project on Linux and nothing else. I have no idea if
this work on Windows or MacOS. I, also, have no urge to find
out. Unfortunately, you are on your own here because I have no means
to test it.
As stated near the top of this document, I am expecting to shutdown
the API near the end of 2021. When that happens, this will remain as a
reference repository.
