Delete methods: Request message

This rule enforces that all Delete RPCs have a request message name of Delete*Request, as mandated in AIP-135.

Details

This rule looks at any message matching beginning with Delete, and complains if the name of the corresponding input message does not match the name of the RPC with the suffix Request appended.

Examples

Incorrect code for this rule:

// Incorrect.
// Should be `DeleteBookRequest`.
rpc DeleteBook(Book) returns (google.protobuf.Empty) {
  option (google.api.http) = {
    delete: "/v1/{name=publishers/*/books/*}"
  };
}

Correct code for this rule:

// Correct.
rpc DeleteBook(DeleteBookRequest) returns (Book) {
  option (google.api.http) = {
    delete: "/v1/{name=publishers/*/books/*}"
  };
}

Disabling

If you need to violate this rule, use a leading comment above the method. Remember to also include an aip.dev/not-precedent comment explaining why.

// (-- api-linter: core::0135::request-message-name=disabled
//     aip.dev/not-precedent: We need to do this because reasons. --)
rpc DeleteBook(Book) returns (google.protobuf.Empty) {
  option (google.api.http) = {
    get: "/v1/{name=publishers/*/books/*}"
  };
}

If you need to violate this rule for an entire file, place the comment at the top of the file.
