Re: [Koha-devel] REST api developments (Benjamin Rokseth)
Hi Tomas, Great to head you're committed to the REST API development! And some good steps already taken. We're heavy users of the API, and have been for some time, and have just converted our endpoints to the OpenAPI coming in 17.11. Most importantly for us would be the endpoints for patrons and circulation, (biblios, items, checkouts, holds, etc.) that we already use, but there is also one aspect we'd like to add - the auth module. The auth module should be rewritten entirely, we have already done parts of this, to stop using CGI session. (perhaps) use plack sessions instead, and API might use JSON tokens or whatever is more approproate. What are your thoughts on this? Hope we can contribute!

With recent additions and specially all enhancements surrounding bug 19410, we should be able to start writing endpoints faster and easier. The REST api is top priority for us, and making it easier to code, one of our short-term goals. Let us know the endpoints your project might benefit from, we can commit to writing those endpoints, or help you in the process. We still need to have better documentation, but we'll be looking for 'REST api' tagged bugs trying to help.

Agreed with Benjamin. We mostly would like endpoints for biblio/item CRUD and checkouts, holds, and auth. I was just thinking last night how I could have done my OAI-PMH harvester differently if there was a persistent REST service offering biblio CRUD...
