00:32	michaeldausmann	hi guys
00:33	pdurbin	hey
00:33	michaeldausmann	I have a rest design question.. right forum?
00:33	* pdurbin	checks the /topic
00:33	pdurbin	michaeldausmann: yup
00:34	michaeldausmann	so I am building a restful api to support a question/answer type service
00:34	michaeldausmann	users will post answers
00:35	michaeldausmann	and the server will respond with advice + more questions
00:35	michaeldausmann	underneath the hood is a rules engine
00:35	pdurbin	sounds like https://api.stackexchange.com
00:36	michaeldausmann	interesting
00:36	michaeldausmann	so my rules are keyed by clientId and ruleId.. so posting/retrieving rules is pretty standard
00:37	michaeldausmann	router.get('/rules/:clientId/:ruleId'
00:37	michaeldausmann	but when the user is engaging in a question/answer way, not sure how tto structure it
00:37	michaeldausmann	I think my 'noun' is 'answers'
00:38	michaeldausmann	so user will POST to answers
00:38	michaeldausmann	but I'm not sure whether to do /rules/:clientId/:ruleId/answers (POST)
00:38	michaeldausmann	or just /answers (POST) and put the ruleId/clientid in the POST data
00:39	michaeldausmann	what is more intuitive?
00:40	pdurbin	/questions/{id}/answers/add is how they do it at https://api.stackexchange.com/docs/create-answer
00:42	michaeldausmann	ok.. but the body still contains the question id
00:42	michaeldausmann	oh, actually maybe it doesn't
00:43	pdurbin	the question id is in the path, the url
00:44	michaeldausmann	ok got it
00:44	michaeldausmann	thanks, thats very helpful
00:44	pdurbin	oh sure
