This section documents the standards, conventions, and best practices for working with the ObjectStack Protocol.
Learn the naming rules for schemas, fields, and identifiers:
- Configuration keys use
camelCase - Machine names use
snake_case - Schema property naming patterns
API design principles and patterns for building consistent interfaces:
- RESTful conventions
- Request/Response envelopes
- Error handling patterns
Consistent error handling strategies across the protocol:
- Error types and codes
- Error messages and localization
- Recovery strategies
Authentication provider implementation standards:
- OAuth, SAML, LDAP integration
- Session management
- Security best practices
Standards ensure:
- Consistency: Predictable behavior across implementations
- Interoperability: Different components work together seamlessly
- Maintainability: Code is easier to understand and modify
- Quality: Best practices prevent common pitfalls
