Hi Jerome,
No REST is not going away, I think the comment that you read is about the
gadget <-> shindig communication to support the JS API, which used to work
over the REST protocol and has now switched over to using the json-rpc
protocol (so we switched from
shindig/features/opensocial-rest/restfulcontainer.js to
shindig/features/opensocial-jsonrpc/jsonrpccontainer.js to drive the JS
API).
If you read the specification you'll see that the REST protocol is a *MUST*
(RFC talk), and JSON-RPC is optional, however we decide to support it since
it provides a great way of batching requests, and guaranteeing request
ordening, so it's a great protocol to use and support, so both will keep
having a place in shindig.
If you would update to the most recent php-shindig and partuza code (maybe
start out fresh to make sure there's no conflicts and/or old code laying
around) you should be getting 120 tests passed in the container compliance
test, and 8 tests failed. (5 of which are known to broken in the test it's
self, so 3 more left to fix really :).
If your getting different results in your complaince test, then there's
something wrong in your instalation and it might be good to double check if
your configuration is fully working.
So please, continue to use REST and no need to worry about that, and if you
update to the latest code you'll find the test results are a lot better now
then the numbers you mentioned :)
