Hi list,
in the last days we had some problems here that had to do with
updating/manipulating the mediapackage with JavaScript in the UI.
We would like to come up with a proposal to encapsulate the methods to
manipulate the mediapackage in a REST enpoint. This webservice would not
have and own storage or whatever.
To give an example this REST endpoint would have a method addTrack that
has as required parameters the mediapackage-xml, the URL of the new file
in the working file repository and the flavor of this track and it
returns the updated mediapackage-xml with the track information inside.
The data that was submited to this service is not stored anywhere, we
can make sure that the XML that the service returns is valid and we
could maybe add some additional benefits like checking if the URL of the
new file exists in the WFR and that the path is correct etc.
What do others think about such a service? We would do the
implementation here if there are no rejections.
Thanks
Rüdiger
