Cool! Check out dv.wikipedia.org though, some of the RTL is messing with your (N views) parens. The only hurdle I found is that the 'articles' property is itself > nested/double encoded JSON, instead of a plain object. This was somewhat > unexpected and makes the API harder to use. > Right, for sure. The data had to be stuffed that way to save space in Cassandra. So we could parse it and reshape the response in RESTBase, and that seems like a good idea and probably wouldn't hurt performance too much. Do you think it's worth the breaking change to the format? I'll post on the bug that MZ filed. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
