Use input stream

#	Description	Details	Decisions
1	Should the java interface take in one (JSON) objects(like REST interface) or a few individual fields in a signature?	Mapping the request body to an object
2	Input streams or files?	Toine has a preference for input stream.	03/11/12 Team meeting Niamh, Toine, Rishi, Aditya, Bruno, Phillipee We have decided to use input streams.
3	API uses (generated) ID's or customer provided names ? If names are used should we return IDs at all?	03/11/12 Team meeting notes - Niamh, Toine, Rishi, Aditya, Bruno, Phillipee Using ID would mean client has to get/cache ID's all the time. Maybe the Java API should use names like the REST API does. anchors & nodes - may need ID The Java API follow the REST API. If the rest API is using names then the java API should also use names. Create methods should return the objects created. Should throw an exception if it already exists If the module already exists, an exception should be thrown. All ID's generated should be in the response. If we return it the ID we also need methods to use the ID. If we update the java API to use ID, we should also update the rest API. Create methods will should be void .Create methods could return false if already exists .

CPS provides the following interfaces:
