註釋"A concept-rich book on API design patterns. Deeply engrossing and fun to read." - Satej Sahu, Honeywell

API Design Patterns lays out a set of design principles for building internal and public-facing APIs.

In API Design Patterns you will learn:

Guiding principles for API patterns
Fundamentals of resource layout and naming
Handling data types for any programming language
Standard methods that ensure predictability
Field masks for targeted partial updates
Authentication and validation methods for secure APIs
Collective operations for moving, managing, and deleting data
Advanced patterns for special interactions and data transformations

API Design Patterns reveals best practices for building stable, user-friendly APIs. These design patterns can be applied to solve common API problems and flexibly altered to fit specific needs. Hands-on examples and relevant cases illustrate patterns for API fundamentals, advanced functionalities, and uncommon scenarios.

Foreword by Jon Skeet.

Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.

About the technology

APIs are contracts that define how applications, services, and components communicate. API design patterns provide a shared set of best practices, specifications and standards that ensure APIs are reliable and simple for other developers. This book collects and explains the most important patterns from both the API design community and the experts at Google.

About the book

API Design Patterns lays out a set of principles for building internal and public-facing APIs. Google API expert JJ Geewax presents patterns that ensure your APIs are consistent, scalable, and flexible. You’ll improve the design of the most common APIs, plus discover techniques for tricky edge cases. Precise illustrations, relevant examples, and detailed scenarios make every pattern clear and easy to understand.
