06:44	NordiQ	What would be the best pattern to force the server to refresh an external resource? I'm thinking POST path/to/my/resource/refresh

14:02	DevAntoine	hi
14:02	DevAntoine	when doing rest, what's the word delimiter character for parameters? is it an underscore, a hyphen or it's camel case?

14:23	fumanchu	if you're asking about querystring parameters, it's typical to do ?key=val&key2=val2, but that's not specified by REST or even HTTP
14:26	fumanchu	whether you write ?myKey=1 or ?my_key=1 or ?my-key=1 (or dots, or spaces, or whatever) is more a cultural decision than anything else.
14:27	fumanchu	even ?{"my key": 1} if that makes more sense and your server-side can parse it
14:28	fumanchu	(with appropriate % encoding)

19:30	levensailor	anyone have experience using form inputs as json data and making a rest call in wordpress ?

19:33	NoiseEee	hey, is it bad / not REST to have a DELETE route like: /books/page/:pageToken but also want to have a POST route like: /books/page/publish/:pageToken
19:33	NoiseEee	(ie: extra level of route under 'page' in one situation, but the id/token in the other)
19:35	fumanchu_	I would expect something more like "POST books/page/:pageToken with some request payload like {"published": true}
19:36	fumanchu_	(actually, I'd prefer PATCH)
19:36	NoiseEee	hmm okay thanks!
