> Sidecar endpoint to support on-demand repair operation
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSSIDECAR-268
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSSIDECAR-268
> Project: Sidecar for Apache Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Rest API
> Reporter: Arjun Ashok
> Assignee: Arjun Ashok
> Priority: Normal
> Time Spent: 10h 40m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> This proposal is part of an effort to introduce bespoke Sidecar APIs to
> support key operational functionality currently managed through nodetool
> commands. Introducing these APIs offers several benefits:
>
> Strong Contract Definition: APIs provide a well-defined contract for both
> request and response structures, reducing errors in operational tooling by
> eliminating the need to parse command results.
> Error Handling: A clear response contract allows for meaningful error
> messages to be communicated to clients, without exposing internal
> implementation details.
> Input Validation: APIs can incorporate input validation to enhance security
> by protecting against command injection attacks.
> Version Compatibility: By exposing a standardized interface, APIs ensure
> compatibility across different Cassandra versions, through the sidecar's
> abstraction.
> Access Control: APIs enable fine-grained access control, leveraging
> permissions and roles associated with client identities for precise
> authorization.
>
> This specific task introduces an endpoint that performs the repair operation
> for a given keyspace with several options ranging from the set of tables,
> token-range to be repaired, type of repair (incremental vs full) etc.. Since
> repair is a long-running operation, this API will leverage the async job
> management framework tracked in CASSANDRASC-150.
