So, having 2 objections to clones, let me give my thoughts:
- What I'm working on is a microservices design spec that has multiple
API's with apps that interact with those API's
- Let's say the API has a function 'PUT /updatePosition' that takes
these arguments
- ID
- Latitude
- Longitude
- In the smartphone app spec, I want to add the documentation which says:
- When you've changed X miles in position, do a PUT to
/updatePosition with the arguments:
- clone ID
- clone Latitude
- clone Longitude
So, from a documentation point of view, I'm maintaining the definition for
those parameters once, and referencing them consistently across specs
Is this still discouraged?
