HATEOASHypermedia As The Evader Of App Stores
What do I know?
• Deploying native applications is a pain• Hypermedia can reduce
deployment frequency
Where does the business logic go?
Hypermedia ?
More code less theory
Hypermedia API – Example 1
Switch
On
Off
GET /switchPOST /switch/on
POST /switch/off
Demo
So what?• Links convey options to the client• Following Links captures the user’s intent• Client is limited to dealing with the what, not the how
Hypermedia API – Example 2
Expense AppHome Expenses
Approve
Unapprove
Receipt
{ExpenseId}
{ExpenseId}
{?filename}
Demo
Conclusions• Client state as an implementation artifact can be
valuable• Using Link types to encapsulate behavior isolates
coupling and enables re-use• Allowing the server to take responsibility of application
workflow reduces dependencies on client UI frameworks• Putting your business logic on the server can save you
trips to the app store
