We're currently evaluating different options for opening the HTTP based management
layer of WildFly for different clients. At the moment the bundled admin console is the
only client using the HTTP based management layer. We have prototyped two libraries,
clients can use to access the management layer. One for Node.js:
https://github.com/hal/dmr.js and another for Dart:
https://github.com/hal/dmr.dart.
Another idea is to have a standalone console (on OpenShift) which can connect to arbitrary
management endpoints.
All these clients need a secure way to access the management endpoint on behalf of the
user (resource owner). IMO the best way to handle this is OAuth. So I'm very
interested in OAuth support in undertow. Is there already something in place which I can
use? What would be the next steps?
