Hi,
I have finished and uploaded a rather significant update of the Core &
Models [1] document. The Infrastructure document [2] has been updated
accordingly while the HTTP Rendering document is still in the works.
The Core & Models changelog:
- Updated UML diagram. Fixes the issue with Actions.
- Updated and re-structured description/definition of the base types.
Please read everything through.
- Templates definition added, it is just a Category but without the
requirement to be a type construct.
- Added full description of the Category base type.
- Removed all REST and HTTP stuff. This information will reappear in the
HTTP Rendering document.
- HTTP related Open Issues will reappear in the HTTP Rendering document.
- Extension rules properly defined.
- Discovery mechanism from the Core perspective.
Hopefully the new version should be a lot more consistent and only address
things relevant to the Core specification. The information which was
specific to the HTTP rendering will reappear in that document when it is
completed.
I put some effort into describing how to extend OCCI Core so each base
type now has its on subsection describing the rules for domain-specific
extensions.
Comments welcome.
regards, Ralf
