I think that API should accomodate general/common needs of its clients. After all, the usefulness of API can be measured by its usability from client's perspective. At one extreme, API adapts to each specific client, which in turn bloats the API. At another extreme, API lives in isolated bubble and doesn't care for its clients. Each of these extremes is dangerous :) > > > > Thanks, > Gilad. > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "Einav Cohen" <eco...@redhat.com> > > To: "Gilad Chaplik" <gchap...@redhat.com> > > Cc: "Vojtech Szocs" <vsz...@redhat.com>, "Juan Hernandez" > > <jhern...@redhat.com>, "engine-devel" > > <engine-devel@ovirt.org> > > Sent: Monday, March 24, 2014 5:38:33 PM > > Subject: Re: [Engine-devel] REST API - where did bookmarks go? > > > > Hi Gilad, "client-side Bookmarks" is a great suggestion, however it > > is a (non-related) RFE, which may be implemented instead of, or in > > addition to, the already-existing server-side Bookmarks. > > > > [keep in mind that server-side bookmarks allow you to add bookmarks > > that may be used by other users; it is also a feature that exists > > for a long time in oVirt, so need to think a little bit before > > removing it] > > > > As long as we have server-side Bookmarks (i.e. as long as Bookmark > > is an engine-managed business entity), they need to be exposed via > > the REST API. > > > > ---- > > Thanks, > > Einav > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > > From: "Gilad Chaplik" <gchap...@redhat.com> > > > To: "Vojtech Szocs" <vsz...@redhat.com> > > > Cc: "Juan Hernandez" <jhern...@redhat.com>, "engine-devel" > > > <engine-devel@ovirt.org> > > > Sent: Monday, March 24, 2014 11:28:02 AM > > > Subject: Re: [Engine-devel] REST API - where did bookmarks go? > > > > > > Hi Guys, > > > > > > Why we need bookmarks in API? a single liner that points out to another > > > single liner? > > > I know that we need it for 'UI over REST' migration, but... > > > IMHO bookmarks should be saved in client side, maybe inject the search > > > string > > > in the url, and get 'real' bookmarks/favorites...
