---------------------------------------
Summary: Let PQS Act As An Admin Tool Endpoint
Key: PHOENIX-6074
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-6074
Project: Phoenix
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: queryserver
Reporter: Mehdi Salarkia
Assignee: Mehdi Salarkia
In our production environment we need to create a lot of indexes and use
indexTool to build the index also sometime use tools like indexScrutiny to
verify the health and status of indexes, etc.
PQS can act as a REST API end point (proxy) that allows developers to call and
run commands that phoenix currently support via command line only:
* IndexTool
* IndexScrutiny
Benefits:
# Allow developers to develop tools in their application to run and integrate
phoenix command line tools into their application without a human intervention.
# Remove unnecessary access permission to production from non admins.
# Simplify the Index management (or any other future command line tool that
will be added to phoenix) and remove the possibility of human error, etc.
I was looking at the implementation PHOENIX-5827 as an example. I think we can
simply define a new context and use that to trigger phoenix command line tools
from PQS and return the result (perhaps the MR job link,...) to the client.
