Small Utility APIs: Roll Dice

Por um escritor misterioso

Descrição

I enjoy documenting APIs that I come across on the Internet. Not all designs catch my attention, but when they do, I like to add them to my monitoring systems, and with some of the smallest, open source designs, I like to fork them. Today I came across the Roll Dice as a Service API, a simple resource for rolling dice, while reading Today in Tabs. I love simple, micro API designs like this, and in addition to adding it to my database, I wanted to make sure I documented the API using Swagger. You never know when an API will go away, so I wanted to capture a snapshot of the API as a machine readable API definition. The code behind is also open source, so I went ahead and forked the Github repository as well. I would like to see more APIs like this. I think they are fun, and potentially very useful, depending on their function. I'd like to see a push button deploy on Heroku, and in Docker containers, so people could build little, localized API stacks.
