@sryza maybe that is the source of some confusion. This is not intended as
a third party extension point at this time. This exists because we want some
very simple thing that we can support into the future for standalone job
submission because there is no stable API there due to a lack of compatibility
guarantees by akka RPC. Nonetheless, I still think we should do some of the
proposed improvements like using proper GET and POST calls when needed.
Some bigger "design" questions are out of scope for this. The main one is
whether we want to standardize our internal RPC's throughout Spark on an
interface that is stable going forward (SPARK-5124). And that comes with
questions about whether to use some library to generate bindings, etc.
