The Standards supporting REST - Copenhagen Meetup
Details
The second Meetup in the Copenhagen is going to be about the standards supporting REST. The standards is basically the collection of HTTP specifications:
These are e.g. HTTP Methods (https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html), Status Codes (https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html), Content-type (https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc1341/4_Content-Type.html), Header Fields (https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html), Web Linking (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5988#page-10), CURIES (https://www.w3.org/TR/2010/NOTE-curie-20101216/), URI Template (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6570) and HAL Specification (https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-kelly-json-hal-08). After the meeting an opportunity of adding specification https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7807 (elaborated problem information) to the standards agenda. Amandeep Midha will take us through RFC7807.
That is the result of the initial meetup, and we may see code examples of parts of what is in the standards and map the specifications directly to examples.
The important parts of standards, that relates to the construction of solid REST API's are discussed in plenum and explained.
This hopefully results in a lot of discussion and opinionated views.
