--------------------------------
Summary: Implement Virtualhost centric REST interface
Key: QPID-7563
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-7563
Project: Qpid
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Java Broker
Affects Versions: qpid-java-6.2
Reporter: Keith Wall
Advertising
For use-cases where the Broker to hosts a shared service where different
applications are assigned to be different virtual hosts the broker should offer
the ability to manage these virtualhosts independently. It should behave as if
it were a chrooted prison.
AMQP Management already offers this ability. The HTTP management interface
should change to offer the same thing.
The REST API of a virtualhost will service the only virtualhost's subtree. The
formation of the service urls will reflect this structure. {{/virtualhost}}
will be analogous to {{//broker}} and will service the virtualhost root.
{{/queue/}} will serve all the queues defined on the virtualhost,
{{/queue/<queuename>}} will serve only the names queue.
To offer the virtualhost service, the HTTPPort will be changed to support
VirtualHostAliases. As with an AMQPPort, with a HostNameAlias, a HTTP port
will be capable of presenting an interface for any virtualhost whose name
matches the hostname of the incoming request. A new alias type will support a
one to one mapping between port and virtualhost interface.
The scope of the work will be the REST API only. Authentication will be
performed by the preemptive authenticator - SASL won't be support yet. Nor
will offer services such as query, reports, metadata etc.
