------------------------------------
Summary: Update '/stacks' endpoint to use the api framework
Key: AMBARI-4277
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-4277
Project: Ambari
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: John Speidel
Assignee: John Speidel
Part of the work being done to implement blueprints.
As a result of the blueprint work, the stacks api will be exposed to users and
therefore needs to be updated to use the api framework to be consistent with
the other api endpoints.
We currently have '/stacks' and '/stacks2' endpoints. The '/stacks' endpoint is
very old and doesn't use the api framework and is inconsistent with the rest of
the api. This endpoint isn't used by the UI or any other internal component and
has never been documented. The 'stacks2' endpoint does use the api framework
and is consistent with the other endpoints in it's usage except for the naming
of the endpoint and some of it's children. This endpoint is currently used by
the UI.
This task will basically clone the functionality of the 'stacks2' endpoint in
the 'stacks' endpoint. The 'stacks' endpoint will be augmented with additional
information in future tasks as needed by blueprints. Examples are component
dependencies and topology tokens in config properties. After this work the
'stacks2' endpoint should basically be deprecated and the UI should eventually
be phased over to the new 'stacks' endpoint.
