Available APIs • Lots of Google APIs already using this model. –Google+, Prediction, etc. • Google Apps: –Task API v1 –Calendar V3 soon –Others...eventually
Simpler Data Format { • Default format is JSON • Easy to construct, parse, and Text comprehend
Client Libraries - Discovery • Dynamic Discovery –JSON object –Describes resources, URLs, verbs, parameters, (schemas) –Always up to date –Discovery is just another API! https://www.googleapis.com/discovery/v1/apis
Client Libraries • “Generic” client libraries – Discover resources, URL templates, verbs – Use simple classes to represent resources – Generated POJOs to map JSON for strongly typed languages
PHP tasks = service.tasks() .list(tasklist = ‘@default’) .execute() for task in tasks[‘items’]: print task[‘title’] }
Generated classes for Java, .NET
Simple hashes for PHP, Python, Ruby, etc.
