[jira] [Commented] (QPID-6948) Introduce REST API compatibility
layer
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-6948?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15147280#comment-15147280 ]
Rob Godfrey commented on QPID-6948:
-----------------------------------
Also, currently we have under /service :
# /service/userpreferences
# /service/preferences
# /service/structure
# /service/queuereport
# /service/metadata
Of these I think 1,2,3 and 5 should all actually be versioned and thus under /api. For Queue Reports since the idea of these is to allow those running a Qpid instance to inject their own reporting code into the broker, I don't think it makes sense to version these with the model version.
For backward compatibility I guess the service/foo mapping must be maintained and should always return the "6.0" version of these servlets

> Make the REST API backwardly compatibility with model as used by 0.32.
> In general the compatibility layer should:
> For GET:
> * attributes that are removed should be simulated (e.g. defaultVirtualHost)
> * new attributes/new types don't need to be hidden
> For POST/PUT:
> * on creation, new mandatory attributes should be given sensible defaults
> * removed operations should be supported perhaps by rewriting the request in terms of new operations.
> When the model changes structurally, the compatibility layer should present the old model.
