REST API Design Doc

Base URL

Each version of the API should remain functional for a period of time after the next version is released to allow client applications time to migrate to the next version. Typically this is done by placing a version number in a query parameter ?version=20151201. If no version is provided, the latest API version will be assumed.

Upgrading Rails 4.1 to 4.2 with RSpec 2

Upgrading Rails is normally a simple task, especially if the difference between the versions is not very large. But in the case of 4.1 to 4.2 upgrade of an application (or a library) using RSpec 2, it can get messy, because RSpec 2 is not fully compatible with Rails 4.2. So in order to upgrade Rails, you have to upgrade RSpec first. Here how we did that:

In order to upgrade to RSpec 3 we first upgrade to RSpec 2.99.0, run the specs to see the deprecations, fix the deprecations and then upgrade to 3.1.0.

1. First remove all RSpec gems except rspec-rails (all the rspec-* gems).
2. Then update rspec-rails gem to version 2.99.0.
