Server Module

HTTP/REST Return Types

The body of all HTTP/REST responses will contain a JSON object that is tagged as either an error or a value.

{ error: {
  message: 'some human readable string',
  details: 'maybe some more technical details'
} }

... or ...

{ value: {
  ... some useful attributes ...
} }

##HTTP Errors: Server and global errors will result in an HTTP error code; however, REST errors are propagated through the JSON object in the body of a 200 response.

• database down
• bad request uri
• general failure

REST Errors

REST failures can originate both remotely on the REST server and locally within the client application.
