API wrapper Concerns
Raw
api-wrapper-concerns.md

  • It must make using the API easier...it shouldn't be an abstraction for abstraction sake

  • when you get a session token - can you store it for future sessions? - what mechanism is used to retrieve a new one if the old one fails within the request/response cycle.

  • automatically close session tokens

  • should you hide error codes - or just raise them from the original api? - for example authentication fails on the client api login - I should raise an exception but what kind?

  • Should you catch API access codes and raise your own errors
