Hi, I am just getting started with Mesos. My goal is to run some user-submitted code in a Docker container on my cluster. As per my understanding, I would need to write a Scheduler that submits some tasks to the Mesos cluster and tracks their process.
I have discovered that I can write a Scheduler in an arbitrary language (Scala for me) using the Scheduler HTTP API < http://mesos.apache.org/documentation/latest/scheduler-http-api/>. That page says "most scheduler developers should use a library for their language of choice that manages the details of the HTTP API" and links to < http://mesos.apache.org/documentation/latest/api-client-libraries/>. (Note that that page doesn't mention "HTTP" anywhere except in the <title>.) The latter page lists a mesos-scala-api library < https://github.com/nokia/mesos-scala-api> provided by Nokia, but looking at the dependencies (libmesos.so etc.), this is not actually using the HTTP API, is it? Also, the "Hello World" example from < https://gist.github.com/guenter/7471695> directly imports org.apache.mesos and works fine as is, so now I am a bit unsure about which is the way to write a Scheduler, using the "Hello World" approach, the Nokia library or write a client for the HTTP API myself. Any suggestions? Thank you, Tobias
