17:20 benzrf hey
17:21 benzrf is the '"links": [{"rel": rel, "href": href}]' form standard
17:22 benzrf or '{"content": ..., "links": <as above>}', for that matter
18:14 saml benzrf, i use {"_links": {"self": {"href": "hehehe.com"}}}
18:14 saml http://stateless.co/hal_specification.html
18:15 saml i don't think there's "standard"
18:15 benzrf dang
18:15 saml html is standard and widely used though
18:15 benzrf yea
18:15 saml <link rel="self" ..>    or <a> or <form>
18:15 benzrf i was imagining a generic rest client lib
18:16 benzrf where you write your specific client code like
18:16 benzrf uh
18:16 saml there can be atompub clients
18:16 benzrf oh?
18:16 benzrf i was just thinking of something that provides an abstraction over sending requests and following links
18:17 benzrf so you can just write 'follow link to register, post request with fields username and password'
18:17 saml i don't know about json.. but html already provides those
18:17 benzrf but you can't abstract over hateoas in general if you dont have a widespread format for how links show up
18:18 benzrf saml: yeah, but if it's in html then interaction is probably driven by the user through the browser
18:18 saml <a href="/accounts">Register</a>    and GET /accounts  gives you <form>
18:18 benzrf im thinking of an abstraction layer for more machine-oriented document types
18:18 saml you want machines to automatically register many accounts?
18:20 benzrf :p
18:20 benzrf just an example
18:21 benzrf html rendered by a browser enables a uniform interface for HATEOAS to humans, but there doesnt seem to be something equivalent for computers
18:21 benzrf you need to know ahead of time how links will be communicated
18:21 saml i don't understand
18:21 benzrf etc
18:21 benzrf for each separate one
18:22 benzrf saml: i can go to almost any human-oriented version of a REST API and it will use links in a way i'm familiar with
18:22 saml google has automated machines that follows links and indexes content
18:22 benzrf saml: but if i visit a bajillion program-oriented versions of REST APIs, they may have different ways of saying what links to what
18:22 benzrf from each other
18:22 saml oh there's standard
18:22 saml link relations registry?
18:23 benzrf iunno
18:23 saml http://www.iana.org/assignments/link-relations/link-relations.xhtml  ?
18:23 benzrf >tfw xml
18:24 benzrf saml: fair enough i suppose q.q
18:24 benzrf have a nice day
