Why
Waffle currently has a view to expose flag/switch/sample state as a Javascript object via the WaffleJS endpoint.
But there are a number of use cases where it would be preferable to expose that state in a serialized format like JSON.
(Related Issue: #449)
What
Adds a JSON endpoint that returns the state of all flags/switches/samples.
In addition to the state, the endpoint also includes the last-modified time, which can be useful to identify stale flags that may need to be cleaned up.
Quality
Adds unit tests for the new
waffle_status
view.Adds documentation about how to expose and query the endpoint.
