Dave Marion commented on ACCUMULO-3005:
---------------------------------------

bq.  I need to start looking how to replace the HTML renderings which is the 
big unknown presently.

  Looking at some of your resources (for example, MasterResource), the class 
produces only JSON and returns simple Java objects (String, Map<>, List<>). You 
could instead return JAX-B annotated objects, then register serialization 
providers to support things other than JSON, to include HTML. Looks like an 
example in the Jersey docs is located at: 
https://jersey.java.net/documentation/latest/message-body-workers.html#d0e5405. 
I'm more familiar with JBoss RestEasy, but Jersey is the reference 
implementation I believe, so it should be able to do the same things at the 
spec level.

> 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.
