I have a resource that is posted somewhere (r1). And then I want to post that I have a relationship to that resource on another resource (r2). So I would like to post the id for that relationship. Would I do post api/r2/r1 with id (or ref_id) in body, or would i do post api/r2/ref_r1 with id in body? |

trygvis |
you don't post IDs, you post URIs |
| 10:14 |
|
trygvis |
you download r2, add the reference to r1 and POST r2 back to the server |

Trying to get my head around a concept in REST. How do you deal with resources that have inter-dependencies, and maintaining data integrity? (like cascades if thinking in sql terminology)? |
| 10:49 |
|
trygvis |
usually you make your resources coarse grained and self-consistent and use that as your resource type |
| 10:56 |

trygvis: so, for example, what if there was a "tag" resource and a "photo" resource, where photos have tags, and you want to ensure that if a DELETE is issued on a tag, it only succeeds if that tag doesn't exist on any photos - I don't really get how to express such a system with REST? |

should empty sets be represented by http/404 or should the serialization account for empty sets? consider http://server/people/126510/relatives: what if 126510 has no relatives? suppose i request with Accept: application/vnd.peoplelist+xml, theoretically a http/200 response with body <People></People> would be possible |
| 12:50 |
|
interop_madness |
what would also be possible is http/404, suggesting "no relatives found" |
| 12:51 |
|
trygvis |
I would guess most hypermedias have support for empty sets |

trygvis, so it's recommended to return 200 OK with an empty set instead of 404? |
| 13:39 |
|
|
shrink0r joined #rest |
| 13:41 |
|
trygvis |
I don't know if I can find a citation for it, but 404 usually indicates that the client did something silly |
| 13:41 |
|
trygvis |
it's not like the list is not there, it's just empty |
| 13:41 |
|
trygvis |
so I would definitely go for 200 |

HTTP POST with URL query parameters -- good idea or not? - Stack Overflow - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/611906/http-post-with-url-query-parameters-good-idea-or-not |
| 21:18 |
|
pdurbin |
any opinions? :) |
| 21:18 |

I've never had a problem with URL params on a POST/PUT/PATCH |
| 21:23 |
|
gamache |
I try to design my APIs so that they are usable from awful and perverse environments |
| 21:23 |
|
gamache |
I can imagine a situation where it is convenient to put certain params on every request, and that's easier to do in the URL |
| 21:25 |
|
pdurbin |
I'm hearing that https://code.google.com/p/rest-assured/ says the equivalent of "not a good idea". Won't let you do it. |
| 21:29 |
|
gamache |
that sounds annoying |
| 21:30 |
|
gamache |
I often dislike opinionated testing tools |
| 21:31 |
|
gamache |
anyway this Stack Overflow post is specifically about having an empty POST body and all the payload on the URL |
| 21:32 |
|
gamache |
that sounds kind of stupid in its contexxt |
| 21:42 |
|
pdurbin |
well, I haven't tried it myself yet. |
| 21:43 |

stop reading W3C specs and read IETF ones. then query *strings* are just part of the URI and the method is irrelevant. |
| 21:47 |
|
fumanchu_ |
everything before the # identifies the target resource |

fumanchu_: so you're saying POST with whatever in the URI (including query strings) is fine |

most frameworks do not distinguish between arguments in the URL and arguments in teh payload, especially if the arguments in the payload are form encoded. |
| 23:44 |

pdurbin |
I'll have to play around with rest-assured some more. So far I like it. |
