Hi All, Pradeep Fernando will conduct our next hangout session. Please do join. Topic: Discussion on RESTful API for Stratos Controller Tuesday, 17th of September, 2013 - 7.30 AM (PDT) Introduction:
At the moment, the Stratos admin interfaces are tightly coupled to Carbon admin services. Hence All the backend interfaces are exposed as web-services. This in turn has encouraged developers to develop stratos controller front-ends as Carbon UI components. It is possible to develop Stratos backend interfaces as RESTful services. The initial proposal is to develop them as a seperate JAX-WS webapp. But the topic is open for discusssion. This would allow Stratos developers to, - Create front-ends (simple web-apps) that make use of restful APIs. - Commandline tooling can make use of REST APIs as well. Following is the agenda: - Carbon admin services and how frontend components interacts with them - Stratos controller API (existing) and its UI components. - What it takes to deploy a web-app in Carbon kernel - Accessing core OSGi services by means of CarbonContext API - JAX-RS web-app exposing admin services of Stratos - big picture - How Custom web-app frontend/command line tooling can interact with the deployed REST apis. -- Best Regards, Nirmal C.S.Nirmal J.
