The following errata report has been submitted for RFC6902, "JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Patch". -------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=6902&eid=4787 -------------------------------------- Type: Technical Reported by: Daniel Frey <d.frey@gmx.de> Section: 4.2 Original Text ------------- The "remove" operation removes the value at the target location. The target location MUST exist for the operation to be successful. For example: { "op": "remove", "path": "/a/b/c" } If removing an element from an array, any elements above the specified index are shifted one position to the left. Corrected Text -------------- The "remove" operation removes the value at the target location. The target location MUST exist for the operation to be successful. For example: { "op": "remove", "path": "/a/b/c" } If removing an element from an array, any elements above the specified index are shifted one position to the left. The target location MUST NOT be a reference to the root. It is an error in this document: { "op": "remove", "path": "" } Notes ----- The semantics of { "op": "remove", "path": "" } are never specified. If we allow to remove the root element, what would the result be? It would no longer be a valid JSON document, hence I propose to explicitly require the path of the "remove" operation to not reference the root. Instructions: ------------- This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party (IESG) can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary. -------------------------------------- RFC6902 (draft-ietf-appsawg-json-patch-10) -------------------------------------- Title : JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Patch Publication Date : April 2013 Author(s) : P.
