[GitHub] [openwhisk] klcodanr opened a new issue #5187: Feature Request: Support PATCH Requests in the API

[GitBox <gi...@apache.org>]

klcodanr opened a new issue #5187:
URL: https://github.com/apache/openwhisk/issues/5187


   
   
   ## Environment details:
   
    - N/A (Cloud Service)
   
   ## Steps to reproduce the issue:
   
   1.   Create an Action (or another entity) via the AIO CLI or REST API
   2.   Find a necessary use case to update one or more properties, annotations or others on the action
   3.   The only option is now to PUT a new version of the action including it's code
   
   ## Provide the expected results and outputs:
   
   The API should support sending a PATCH request in a well-understood format like JSON Patch (rfc6902):
   http://jsonpatch.com/
   
   Which has a Scalia implementation: 
   https://github.com/gnieh/diffson
   
   For example you could send a PATCH request to `/api/v1/actions/[my-action` with the body:
   
   ```
   [
     { "op": "replace", "path": "/properties/2", "value": {
               "key": "SERVICE_HOST",
               "value": "https://my-sevice.companygateway.io"
           } },
   ]
   ```
   
   ## Provide the actual results and outputs:
   
   Not Supported
   
   ## Additional information you deem important:
