[che-dev] ProjectService GET vs PUT properties

["Sharafy, Tareq" <tareq.sharafy@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am noticing an inconsistency between the request/response JSON fields of the project service APIs.

The list of mix-in types is returned by the metadata service GET /project/{ws}/{path} in a property named "mixins". However, the list of mix-in types that is received by the update service PUT /project/{ws}/{path} is expected to be in a property named "mixinTypes". The response of the project update service is again the same as the metadata service. This leads to some confusion and ad-hoc workarounds in some client code we are trying to write.

Shouldn't the JSONs that are send back and forth be as similar as possible?

thank you
