----------------------------------
Summary: Considering changing /reserve, /unreserve endpoint syntax
Key: MESOS-3920
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3920
Project: Mesos
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Neil Conway
Priority: Minor
Right now, the "reserve" and "unreserve" endpoints work as follows:
1. slaveID is sent as a separate query parameter
2. the resources to reserve are sent as the "reserve" query parameter, where
the value is encoded in JSON
This is weird, for two reasons:
1. It is more typical for POST to send the content of the new document in the
request body, not as parameters to the query string (e.g.,
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14551194/how-are-parameters-sent-in-an-http-post-request)
2. It is weird to mix query parameters (slaveID, resources) with JSON-encoded
values. Why not just post a single JSON document with all the information
required for a dynamic reservation?
Obviously, there are some backward compatibility concerns if we want to change
this.
