Alejandro Abdelnur commented on HDFS-4513: ------------------------------------------ Should we also clarify that WebHdfsFileSystem implementation does not enforce any additional property not defined in this doc? +1 otherwise. > Clarify WebHDFS REST API that all JSON respsonses may contain additional > properties > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-4513 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4513 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: documentation, webhdfs > Reporter: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE > Assignee: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE > Priority: Minor > Attachments: h4513_20130513.patch > > > According to Section 5.4 in > http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-zyp-json-schema-03.html, the default value of > "additionalProperties" is an empty schema which allows any value for > additional properties. Therefore, all WebHDFS JSON responses allow any > additional property since the WebHDFS REST API do not specify > additionalProperties. > However, it is better to clarify in the API that all JSON respsonses may > contain additional properties. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
