Other question:
Why use the plural when retrieving a single instance.
For example:
/spaces --> All spaces
/space/{space} --> One space
Ah just saw you changed that but not everywhere.
Like classes/{class} should be class/{class}
And pages/{page} should be page/{page}
no?
Actually this was a leftover of my Ruby On Rails experience... But yes,
I think that this can be worked out without any problem :)
Re nested spaces the best is probably to define a
delimiter other than
"/"
Something like:
/space/this::is::nested/page/WebHome
Of course this would mean that "::" is not allowed in space names.
BTW this would also means that "/" is not allowed in space names.
This is an interesting solution.
In fact, I don't know if Restlet supports some kind of regular
expression extension on URI templates.
I mean, I am not sure if we can define a "/{space}+/pages/{page}" URI
template as a route for catching nested spaces... To be investigated.
