JSON-LD and Hydra support? #13

Open pe3 opened 9 years ago

pe3 commented 9 years ago

I think Markus Lanthaler's presentation about JSON-LD and Hydra is worth seeing. If you are in a hurry jump straight to [13:45] where functional Hydra-annotations are discussed.

JSON-LD/Hydra tooling is limited compared to RAML and friends. Markus says in SO that he is working on a document generator but I haven't see anything yet. On the video he presents HydraConsole for automated interaction but it would also be nice to have a traditional document generator for onboarding traditional developers who don't want to understand JSON-LD.

JSON-LD and Hydra could be useful in the X-Road context for the horizontal scalability. Maybe it would even help in bridging WDSL-wisdom to the REST-world (and vice versa).

This is golden. Do you have any contact information of Markus to share? Would love to get his feedback on some JSON-LD stuff we are doing.

I don't know him personally. He is present here on GitHub as lanthaler and active on Twitter as markuslanthaler. Hydra also has an active mailing list.
