Hi Jason This a most welcome development which will definitely revolutionize Web API driven web development. One issue which I recommend you to note would be:
There have been so many changes in the Web API from 2.14 to 2.16 from the perspective of building apps on top of dhis2 such that there is always the risk of apps breaking when the underlying dhis2 backend is upgraded. So not sure how easy it will be to deal with such challenges in the upcoming manual. Maybe some tips and tricks (relevant to the dhis2 version in use) will suffice. Hi there. Based on some good feedback last week during the Oslo DHIS2 Academy, I have made a first cut of a developer manual. As I see it, this basically involves slicing out all of the stuff really aimed more at developers (and in some cases implementers) and less so, users. The chapter on the WebAPI is being constantly expanded by the core developers, but in many cases, far exceeds the level of information required by most users. Some of the developers/implementers which I spoke with last week wanted more information in the developers manual. So, I think moving the really technical stuff to a dedicated developer manual would be a good idea, and allow even more detailed technical stuff to be written, without necessarily addressing the needs of the users. I have , for the time being, left the sections (Technical architecture, Web API, Apps, and the appendix on R) in the main manual, but I think (depending on feedback from the community) that we can slice these out of the main user manual, and put them in a dedicated developer document. Thoughts?
