We have a small vCenter lab. It would be helpful to have a check out system for the virtual resources. Just the basics so users can see what resources are available, check them out, and release them. As a bonus it would be very useful if our automated tests could do the same.
So what we need is:
-
user registration
-
user authentication
-
equipment CRUD
-
equipment reservation
-
web interface
-
scripting interface
-
simple reports
-
use RESTful techniques
We like to code name our product development sprints after bars, so let’s call this project “bar-tender”.
The chronicles of developing bar-tender are in the journal directory. I tried to include every step, but did skip some of my head scratching, research, trail and errors (emphasis on the later) that went into the development.
