[Koha-devel] API error responses change

[Tomas Cohen Arazi]

Hi all, I wanted to mention that I've submitted patches for bug 28020 [1].
The change introduces a new attribute to the generic error response object
that is reused everywhere in the spec. The new attribute is called
'error_code' and is intended to be adopted so API consumers have better
means to deal with error responses.
Remember that right now we return an error status (e.g. 409) and a (too)
generic description in textual form (e.g. Conflict found).

A good use case for this can be seen here [2], in which we already have a
handy error string, but we translate it to some text, while we should be
returning the error_code attribute, and have it documented on the spec as
proposed on bug 28020.

Early feedback is welcome, as I would base several things on top of this!

THANKS!
