Make state-modifying API calls POSTs (!1051) · Merge requests · NebulousLabs / Sia

Christopher Schinnerl requested to merge api-push-vs-get into master Apr 06, 2016

Created by: VoidingWarranties

This PR is intended to serve as an area for discussion about API improvements, not just this specific suggested improvement. As we approach v1.0.0 we need to finalize the API. The change in this PR (so far) is to make every state-modifying call a POST and all other calls a GET.

Another proposed API change we have talked about offline before is adding more HTTP verbs. DELETE in particular would be more semantic for the renter / hostdb / gateway when deleting or removing files / hosts / peers.
