Web Application with REST-based API for remote access and usage
---------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DNA-55
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/DNA-55
Project: DNA
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Server, Web Application
Reporter: Randall Hauch
Fix For: 0.5
Create a DNA server that uses a REST-based API, allowing client applications to access
and use the repository using HTTP for protocol/transport.
AtomPub is also very interesting (as it is RESTful) for a message structure, but it
doesn't currently support hierarchical data. And although one could build a
repository to be flatter (or at least exposed though collections; see how Bento does it:
http://www.filemaker.com/bento/), it may be difficult to have no way of interacting with
the hierarchical data. Bento and iTunes both show how powerful user-defined collections
(and "smart collections") can be, so maybe adopting a collection-only approach
would work (at least for remote access).
