OpenAPI Specification - Wikipedia History[edit] On 1 January 2016, the Swagger specification was renamed the OpenAPI Specification (OAS), and was moved to a new repository in GitHub. In September 2016, the API World conference presented an API Infrastructure award to SmartBear for its ongoing work on Swagger.[8] In July 2017, the OpenAPI Initiative released version 3.0.0 of its specification.[9] MuleSoft, the main contributor to the alternative RESTful API Modeling Language (RAML), joined the OAS and open sourced their API Modeling Framework tool, which can generate OAS documents from RAML input.[10] Usage[edit] Applications implemented based on OpenAPI interface files can automatically generate documentation of methods, parameters and models.
Help:CirrusSearch - MediaWiki If your question is not answered here, feel free to ask on the talk page and someone will answer it for you. §What's improved?Edit The new search engine features three main improvements over the old search engine, namely: Better support for searching in different languages.Faster updates to the search index, meaning changes to articles are reflected in search results much faster.Expanding templates, meaning that all content in an article that's in a template is now reflected in search results. Foundations of RESTful Architecture - DZone - Refcardz The limited number of verbs in RESTful systems confuses and frustrates people new to the approach. What seem like arbitrary and unnecessary constraints are actually intended to encourage predictable behavior in non-application-specific ways. By explicitly and clearly defining the behavior of these verbs, clients can be self-empowered to make decisions in the face of network interruptions and failure. There are four main HTTP verbs (sometimes called methods) used by well-designed RESTful systems.
Features 100% JavaScript. Like other MVC frameworks, Sails is built with an emphasis on developer happiness and a convention-over-configuration philosophy. But Node.js takes this principle to the next level. Building on top of Sails means your app is written entirely in JavaScript, the language you and your team are already using in the browser. Since you spend less time context-shifting, you're able to write code in a more consistent style, which makes development more productive and fun. Any database.
hal HAL is a hypermedia-aware serialization format, which can be represented using JSON and XML format. It's obviously particularly useful for RESTful API delivering real Hypermedia contents (cf HATEOAS). Usage Testing your API with Postman Published Feb 03, 2017Last updated Feb 24, 2017 I'm sure you already know the famous tool call Postman. This is a super useful tool for test your API and looks at the response you get from your server. But I see a lot of people just using it as a manual tester. This is not wrong but you can get much better productivity with if you use some of Postman features. Google Knols Move to WordPress: The Annotum Platform Today, we’d like to give a warm welcome to Google Knol users who are migrating to WordPress.com. Begun in 2007, the Google Knol project has provided people in many fields with a place to share their knowledge and expertise with the world using a platform designed for scholarly authoring and publishing. Starting today, those same authors can move their articles and collaborative journals to WordPress—and they have the power to choose whether to move to a self-hosted WordPress installation powered by the freely-available, open-source Annotum themes, or to have their Annotum-powered site hosted for free here on WordPress.com. Knol will slowly shut down over the next year, and we’ve worked closely with Google, Solvitor LLC, and Crowd Favorite to make this transition as simple as possible.
A Brief Introduction to REST You may or may not be aware that there is debate going on about the “right” way to implement heterogeneous application-to-application communication: While the current mainstream clearly focuses on web services based on SOAP, WSDL and the WS-* specification universe, a small, but very vocal minority claims there’s a better way: REST, short for REpresentational State Transfer. In this article, I will try to provide a pragmatic introduction to REST and RESTful HTTP application integration without digressing into this debate. I will go into more detail while explaining those aspects that, in my experience, cause the most discussion when someone is exposed to this approach for the first time. Key REST principles
Best Practices REST API from Scratch - Introduction The current internet ecosystem has literally been invaded by APIs, and for good reasons. By using third party APIs in your products or services, you have access to a ton of useful features — such as authentication or storage services — that can benefit both you and your users. By exposing your own API, your application becomes “part of the mix” and will be used in ways you’ve never thought before… if you do it the right way, obviously. In this two part series I’ll show you how to create a RESTful API layer for your PHP applications, using a collection of real world best practices. The full source code of this project will be available at the end of part 2.
json-gate json-gate validates JSON objects against a JSON schema. In other words, it makes sure an object conforms to the type and structure that your code expects. For example, a server can use it to ensure input received from a client conforms to the API. The JSON schema can also help with documentation and collaboration. Copy it to your API document and everybody should understand exactly what is expected. json-gate likes you! REST Security with JWT, Spring Security and Java Security Security is the enemy of convenience, and vice versa. This statement is true for any system, virtual or real, from the physical house entrance to web banking platforms. Engineers are constantly trying to find the right balance for the given use case, leaning to one side or the other. Usually, when a new threat appears, we move towards security and away from convenience.
Get Lucid v3.3 for free! We are celebrating the 10th anniversary of Lucid's initial release by providing “Lucid v3.3” free*.

Lucid v3.3 is compatible with the latest Lucid v3.5 builder, so that any keys developed using Lucid v3.3 can be easily imported to Lucid v3.5. Updated version now available (v3.3.2 07082010 FREE). Apiary — How It Works If things go wrong with your developers' API calls, helping them debug can be a royal pain—TCP dumps, Wireshark, installing local HTTP proxies… Not fun. But now your developers can just opt to send their API calls through Apiary's debugging proxy. We'll show them the exact data, down to HTTP level, and outline differences from API documentation, or even perform validations against your schema. If that doesn't help, they can always send you a bug report with all the detailed data attached. List of records Single record Diff description
