[Koha-devel] REST api RFCs

[Andreas Hedström Mace]

Hi!

This sounds like a really good initiative Tomás, getting the major endpoints listed and structured so that the REST API work can proceed!

However, I’m surprised that the endpoint for accountlines is not listed in the RFC. Some reasons why I think that this should be included:

We at Stockholm University Library is already using (a previous) version of this endpoint in production
You mentioned that you included other endpoints BibLibre is working on: we sponsored BibLibre to build this endpoint a while back
But above all I believe other libraries will also be interested in using this endpoint! (At the hackfest in Lund recently, there was interest in using this endpoint from Oslo Public Library etc.)

Best regards,
Andreas Hedström Mace

Ämne: [Koha-devel] REST api RFCs

Hi everyone. Following yesterday's dev meeting (I'm sorry I couldn't attend) it was clear there should be some votes on the changes that we belive need to be made.

In order to organize the documentation on this decision making process, and have something more precise to vote on, I've put together a front wiki page:

https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/REST_api_RFCs

in which all endpoint-specific RFCs can be found. I have added the endpoints I've been, am and will be working on. Also endpoints I know Biblibre is working on.

As the discussion was about the patrons endpoint specifically, I started by creating an RFC for it:

https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Patrons_endpoint_RFC

It is organized in two sections: actions and paths, and the object definition. The idea is that you can add your own column (put your name on it) with your personal proposal. Discussions can happen in other places like IRC or koha-devel.

Please add your comments on each issue you think it is worth, and please contact me if you have any doubts or want to discuss specific stuffs.

I will be spending the next days polishing this RFC and moving into the rest of them in the same way.

Before adding new endpoints to that list, I would suggest we have a small conversation here in koha-devel to avoid polluting the front page with several variations of the same endpoints. This is just a suggestion, though.

Thanks for your interest and feedback!
Cheers
