--------------------------------------
Thanks for the information -- I'm still fumbling blindly through a forest of
possibilities.
bq. I just don't know that we need multiple modules for the monitor right now
to support that separation.
What kind of module? Maven module? Assuming that's what you mean -- I think we
would want two: one that produces a jar (and is designed to run an embedded
server using the normal Accumulo classpath) and then one that makes a war
(designed to be more self-contained, sans maybe Hadoop deps?). IIRC, Maven
doesn't really like creating more than one artifact per module, so I'm not sure
how to get around that one. Not to mention, I don't know what would be standard
to include in the war to, say, deploy it "easily" to a Tomcat or JBoss
instance. :)

> The monitor works well for what it does, but it's very much so cobbled
> together. HTML is hand generated. Static state is used liberally which makes
> testing near impossible. View and controller logic are tightly intertwined
> which also adds to the testability problem.
> I've been working on porting the functionality from the existing monitor to a
> proper rest service using
> [dropwizard|https://dropwizard.github.io/dropwizard/]. It's not completely
> functional yet, but it has a number of improvements of the existing monitor
> code.
> I thought I would post what I have already and let people give some feedback
> if they're interested. Help is always welcome.
