Developer Guide

For some time, we have had the idea of a separate document containing further explanation about the protocol and best practices for implementations which don't fit into the specification. Here are some points which may be contained in this guide:

  • Retries (exponential backoff, automated reconnecting etc)
  • Single vs multiple requests
  • Method overriding
  • 100-continue
  • Custom extensions
  • Checksums
  • Header naming scheme (prefix and singular)
  • Empty files (length = 0)
  • Obtaining upload URL without Creation extension
  • Handling 200, 204 and 2xx the same
  • Explain tus vocabulary (upload, upload URL, resuming an upload)
  • HTTP2 support

If you have further ideas, feel free to comment!

For those stumbling upon this - work on this is being done in #68
