- /identify/
- /convert/

Houdini only accepts `GET` requests containing the path an image in Fedora at both of these endpoints.
Houdini is meant for use with API-X, and accepts `GET` and `OPTIONS` requests to those endpoints. The `OPTIONS` requests are for use with the API-X service loading mechanism, and return RDF describing the
service for API-X. The `GET` requests are used to execute the services, and must contain the URI to an image in Fedora in the `ApixLdpResource` header.

### Identify

This runs the imagemagick identify command on the specified resource and returns the results as JSON with the mimetype application/json.

For example, suppose if you have a TIFF in Fedora at `http://localhost:8080/fcrepo/rest/foo/bar`. If running the PHP built-in server command described in the Installation section:
```
$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer blabhlahblah" "localhost:8888/identify/foo/bar"
$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer blabhlahblah" -H "ApixLdpResource: http://localhost:8080/fcrepo/rest/foo/bar" "localhost:8888/identify"
```

But you're probably going to use Houdini through API-X, which exposes this service as `svc:identify`. Assuming your API-X proxy is on port 8081, you can access the service with
```
$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer blabhlahblah" "http://localhost:8081/services/foo/bar/svc:identify"
```

For example, suppose if you have an image in Fedora at `http://localhost:8080/fcrepo/rest/foo/bar`. If running the PHP built-in server command described in the Installation section:
```
$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer blabhlahblah" -H "Accept: image/png" "localhost:8888/convert/foo/bar"
$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer blabhlahblah" -H "ApixLdpResource: http://localhost:8080/fcrepo/rest/foo/bar" -H "Accept: image/png" "localhost:8888/convert/foo/bar"
```

This will return the TIFF converted into a PNG file.

Additional arguments can be specified using the X-Islandora-Args header. For example to resize to 10% the size use:
```
$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer blabhlahblah" -H "X-Islandora-Args: -resize 10%" "localhost:8888/convert/foo/bar"
$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer blabhlahblah" -H "ApixLdpResource: http://localhost:8080/fcrepo/rest/foo/bar" -H "X-Islandora-Args: -resize 10%" "localhost:8888/convert/foo/bar"
```
