pindonga |
hi, a question about desiging a specific endpoint.. I have some items for a shopping cart... those items have an id (primary identifier at db level) and a sku (user friendly identifier) |
| 15:04 |
|
pindonga |
the id will never change for an item, but the sku might change |
| 15:04 |
|
pindonga |
I need to support both retrieve and update operations on the items |
| 15:05 |
|
pindonga |
and I'd like to support retrieving an item by either id or sku (like GET /items/{id} or GET /items/{sku}), but when updating an item I need to specify the path by id (POST /items/{id}) |
| 15:06 |
|
pindonga |
the problem is how to specify which field I'm using to look up the item by, in a way that leaves the api simple for the user |
| 15:06 |
|
pindonga |
I tried using GET /items/foo?lookup_key=sku but that's not as simple as just /items/foo |
| 15:06 |
|
pindonga |
any suggestions? |
| 15:08 |
|
pindonga |
I also tried looking up by id first then by sku server side and returning the first match, but that also has a problem: if the user sees a link for an item with sku '2' (thus the url is /items/2) and some time before the user requests that item a new item is added with id 2 (thus /items/2) the user will get the wrong item |
| 15:13 |
|
pdurbin |
pindonga: here we support lookup by id number (long) or alias (String) ... in the findDataverse method: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/master/src/main/java/edu/harvard/iq/dataverse/api/AbstractApiBean.java#L160 |
| 15:14 |
|
pindonga |
pdurbin, but then you have the constraint that alias cannot be numeric, correct? |
| 15:14 |
|
pindonga |
ie, you're restricting the possible values for alias |
| 15:14 |
|
pindonga |
based on an implementation detail (which is what I was trying to avoid) |
| 15:15 |
|
pdurbin |
pindonga: yes, exactly: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/1461 |
| 15:16 |
|
pindonga |
thx |

pindonga: I would have items/bysku/{sku} redirect to items/{id} |
| 15:35 |
|
fumanchu |
or even skus/{sku} redirect to items/{id} |
| 15:35 |
|
pindonga |
fumanchu, ack, thx for the idea |
| 15:35 |
|
pindonga |
I was also considering using filtering for sku access, like /items?sku=sku |
| 15:35 |
|
pindonga |
and have specific item be accessible only via id |
| 15:36 |
|
fumanchu |
can a sku map to more than one id? |
| 15:41 |
|
pindonga |
it shouldn't |
| 15:42 |
|
pindonga |
at any given time, but it could change to which id it maps to |
| 15:42 |
|
pindonga |
ie, item 1 has sku foo1, then it gets renamed to foo2, then item 2 is added with sku foo1 |
| 15:42 |
|
pindonga |
this is valid |
| 15:42 |
|
fumanchu |
sounds like the reason HTTP redirects were created ;) |
| 15:42 |
|
pindonga |
but you cannot have item1 and item2 have sku foo1 at the same time |
| 15:54 |
|
trygvis |
pindonga: I would let the resource include a link with rel=self which should be used to update the resource |
