I'm working on an overhaul of the OpenBD admin console and "API" (in
quotes because I fully realize the term API can only be applied
loosely to what's there now), and wanted to get people's feedback on a
couple of things.
First, will it impact anyone significantly if the structure of the
code changes substantially? I'm referring to things like where the
files are with this question. I just don't have any insight into what
if anything people might be doing directly with the CFCs under the
adminapi directory for example (which is where all the action is).
Mach-II does some stuff in the 1.9 BER with the CFCs directly, but that
is easily fixed.
Second, and related, will it impact anyone if a true RESTful API is
created and you have to use that vs. messing with the CFCs directly?
I think we need to offer both in this case. If we have a properly
designed CFC API, the REST is merely a security and thin interface to that.
