Description

This library provides a RESTful-like API for clients to connect to the MaidSafe network. Client interactivity with the network will create the appropriate policies to be passed to the policy-based class design environment. This library can be considered a helper library to connect clients such as LifeStuff to distributed networks such as the MaidSafe Platform.

Features

• Separation of responsibilities between client applications and network requests.
• Serialisation and parsing of network messages.

Status

This library is considered PRE-ALPHA quality and is provided with a full test suite and QA suite. Developers should be aware of this PRE-ALPHA state if considering using this library for production quality systems at this time. This library will be Alpha quality imminently (undergoing rapid development).

Roadmap

• Imminent release to Beta
• Improve API to allow client created policies to be passed to the RESTful interface
• Improve efficiency of message types
• Implement further type safety
• Investigate option of passing new structured data types via the network.
• Implement manual merge capabilities for structured data
