stack commented on HBASE-795:
-----------------------------
This is a nice patch. Applies fine. I took it for a spin doing the
prescription outlined above. All works nicely. Only issues I see is what if
there exists already a table named 'tables' and the lack of documentation of
REST in general (not your fault).
Maybe you should rename the 'tables' switch to be a name you know is illegal as
a legit tablename: e.g. _tables or some such (See
HTableDescriptor.isLegalTableName for rules).
Meantime, I'm going to apply this since it adds nice functionality. If you get
a chance, add package doc. to REST, if only to point back at the wiki page, and
fix the 'tables' issue if you come up w/ an idea better than mine above.

> In the current implementation, only the metadata query of table allowed. It's
> not convinent to use the REST interface to write a third-party client
> library. I think the functionality of REST interface should be similar with
> the hbase shell. So user can create/show/update/delate/enable/disable the
> table.
