Would you extend TECH being lower case to replacing all cases where PJSIP is output in response to an ARI request (and thus could get copied into a URL)? For example, instead of:
{ "technology": "IAX2", "resource": "demo", "state": "unknown", "channel_ids": [] }, { "technology": "PJSIP", "resource": "200", "state": "offline", "channel_ids": [] },
You would want:
{ "technology": "iax2", "resource": "demo", "state": "unknown", "channel_ids": [] }, { "technology": "pjsip", "resource": "200", "state": "offline", "channel_ids": [] },
Or would it be sufficient to say that lowercase is preferred, but due to case insensitivity it's not necessary to change all existing cases where it is output?

Okay, so the consensus I'm hearing is to change from case sensitive
throughout to case sensitive only for identifiers and resources, and
leave everything else insensitive and lower case (including technology).
PREFIX: case insensitive
PATH: case insensitive
TECH: case insensitive, case determined by actual technology name,
convention is all UPPERCASE, but either will match
RESOURCE: case sensitive, must match actual configured value.
ID: case sensitive, must match actual identifier
OPERATION: case insensitive
Going forward (all future ARI URIs), the standard then is that all
portions of a URI are case insensitive except where they are identifiers
or resource names where the case matters.
Unless I receive any objections to this plan, I will go ahead and
implement this later (in the coming days) when I get to the originating
issue.

The preference should be for lowercase throughout, except for

channel or peer identifiers which need to be case sensitive due
to
naming conventions.

Personally, I prefer everything to be lower case when possible.
So,
things like TECH, if PJSIP, pjsip, PjSiP, are all valid inside
asterisk, lets round down to pjsip. However, if ENDPOINT is
case
sensitive in Asterisk, then expect the end user to enter it as
such.
So using your example above:
127.0.0.1:8088/ari/endpoints/pjsip/200
or
127.0.0.1:8088/ari/endpoints/pjsip/FooBar
or
127.0.0.1:8088/ari/endpoints/pjsip/foobar
All return different endpoints.
Additionally, have we even considered embedding the actually
resource
URL when we list an object in the return result? Then Asterisk
can
tell the user exactly how to get a specific item in the list.
For example, we create a links: [] object, that would list the
actual
URI for said item.
