Remove HTTP / HTTPS streaming constants? #9

Closed defagos closed 6 years ago

defagos commented 7 years ago

We currently have two strange HTTP / HTTPS values in streaming constants. Those are valid according to IL specs, but look strange on mobile (as HLS, another streaming constant, can be delivered over both).

We should check with the IL team whether these values make sense for the mobile (or portal as well), and remove them if they are not needed for mobile libraries.

Asked on Slack, no answer yet:

For streaming information in resources, we have HTTP and HTTPS. Do these values still mean something? We can namely obtain an HLS playlist through HTTP or HTTPS, which let us think that the HTTP and HTTPS values should not be at the same level as the HLS streaming constant. Is this something we needed to keep, which is maybe not relevant anymore nowadays, or values that apps might not support? Thanks for your clarifications!

Ask again later.

For the moment, we'll leave things as they are. We probably have more important topics to discuss.
