Paul Ramirez commented on OODT-139:
-----------------------------------
@Chris Instead of documenting the services here I think we should just move
these into our Wiki. It will be easier to organize and maintain. I'll add that
page soon.
@Brian Seeing your documentation helps a lot. I have an issue with the approach
that is being taken given the responses that are coming from your service. It
seems as though you are trying to be too generic and accomplish too much. Maps
are being encoded into JSON even though there are structs that would mimic
that. Why would someone need the list of columns when they can inspect the
first result? Check out
http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/enterprise-web-solutions/json-basics-in-javascript-32660.
What also should be considered is the interpretation of the JSON by the
client. Here is a sample discussion that somewhat illustrates what I'm saying
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1637334/iterating-through-parsing-json-object-via-javascript.
Moreover, even if we were implementing a column service, which I don't
recommend we do, why would it not just return
["InstanceId","ModelId","State","CreationDate","CurrentTasks","AliveTime"]? If
you agree on the endpoints, parameters, and messages passed then both the
interface and server side implementer can begin work and use that as a
contract.

> Now that the PCS core is contributed, it would be great to not just have
> command line versions and APIs for tools like pcs_stat, pcstrace and pcs_ll.
> We should expose them over JAX-RS so that webapps can easily take advantage
> of PCS services.
