Event History

Event History

This is a proposed change. It has not been implemented yet.

Proposal

  • Use JSON Patch to keep event history
  • It can be applied to any of Tidepool's data base data models
  • It's up to the server to reject invalid event patch requests

TBD: Since we want event history to be immutable, we are adding the event history to the original event. Since we are not actually "changing" the original event, but providing a change history, we may not want to use the HTTP PATCH verb. We may want to make a new endpoint that "adds" history to an existing data event.

Here is an example of a carb event that was initially a carb entry of 40g, that was changed to 60g 15 minutes later:

Sample Modified Quantity

    "carbohydrate": {
      "net": 40,
      "units": "grams",
      "absorptionTime": 10870000
    }
  },
  "history": [
    {
      "time": "2019-08-13T10:05:19.162Z",
      "changes": [
        {
          "op": "replace",
          "path": "/nutrition/carbohydrate/net",
          "value": 60
        }
      ]
    }
  ],

  "displayOffset": 600
}

Here is an example of a carbohydrate event that was deleted 4 minutes after initial entry:

}

Here is an example of a carb event that was initially a carb entry of 40g, that was changed to occur at an earlier time 5 minutes after originally being entered:
