REST wiki documentation incorrect
---------------------------------
Key: HBASE-1029
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1029
Project: Hadoop HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Craig Macdonald
The only source of documentation for the REST interface is the wiki page,
located at http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/HbaseRest. On trying to use this
interface, we have noted the following issues:
* The wiki page says that the content-type sent for XML data is
application/xml - the correct content-type is text/xml
* The wiki page says that the content-type multipart/related is supported - it
is not yet supported as far as I can tell from the source of RowHandler.
* Values must always be base64 encoded - wiki page does not state this for PUT
operations
* Finally, I think it would be desirable to have a package.html in
src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/rest/
