Get server status information

```

```

Parameters:

* none

Response:

The JSON data returned comprises the following properties:

* ''anonymous'' - true if the current user is anonymous
* ''read_only'' - true if the current user is restricted to read only access to the server
* ''logout_is_available'' - true if the server supports logging out (optional, defaults to true)
* ''space'' - always contains the object `{recipe: "default"}`
* ''tiddlywiki_version''  - the current TiddlyWiki version

For example:

```
{
  "username": "",
  "anonymous": true,
  "read_only": false,
  "space": {
    "recipe": "default"
  },
  "tiddlywiki_version": "5.1.18"
}
```
