HappyPDF API Schema

Build Status

Our API (objects,resources) is described with JSON Schema (http://json-schema.org). Each Object has its own description, with those top-level keys:

{ "name": "pdf", // object type "properties": { .. }, // field descriptions "links": [ .. ] // CRUD actions, relationships to other resources }

Look into the /schema/ folder for the resources schema-files For ruby pirates this project is available as gem. It provides some utility methods to read the schema files and convert objects to their schema notation. See /lib/happypdf/schema.rb

Other languages should take advantage of the raw json files.

Field types & formats

Most of the fields are of type 'string'. Their format(espacially date fields) is casted on our side. We try to go with the formats and [types])http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zyp-json-schema-03#section-5.1) defined by JSON-Schema

All text MUST be UTF-8 encoded.

Text-Format length varies, between ~16,000 to 65.535, with the occurence of non-ASCII Characters see this post on stackoverflow
