gluster-rest

A server providing a RESTful web api for access to the Gluster management daemon.

Presently it is just a quick hack written in go, which given the gluster cli arguments with a '/' as the seperator, runs the gluster cli with the arguments and returns the xml output. There is no input validation or proper error reporting as yet, but these will come soon.

The GoRest framework 1 is used to build the server.

To install and test, run # go get github.com/kshlm/gluster-rest
This will download, compile and install gluster-rest and GoRest in your $GOPATH.

Run $GOPATH/bin/gluster-rest as root, to start the server.
The base URI for requests will be http://localhost:7331/gluster

To get the list of volumes, you can do a GET request on http://localhost:7331/gluster/volume/list
This will return an xml document containing the list of volumes in the cluster.

To get information regarding a volume do a GET request on http://localhost:7331/gluster/volume/info/<VOLUMENAME>
This will return an xml document containing information on the given volume.
