API or command-line method for registering zookeeper

[jpotter]

Is there a way to register zookeeper programmatically? Either by including the settings in a conf file or including them on the command line?

Thanks for what looks to be a great tool!

Yes, you can use the console's JSON API. An API console was added in the latest snapshot which you can use to test it (http://[hostname]:[port]/api/console).

Hi Claude,

Hmm, I'm getting 404 issues with this. Reading through the RAML, I'm able to get settings via: http://localhost:8088/api/settings.json (not http://localhost:8088/api/console/settings.json) but not able to PUT to http://localhost:8088/api/zookeepers.json (404 not found), nor able to get http://localhost:8088/api/zookeepers.json/all -- suggestions? (I tried a number of variations.)

Thanks, Jeff

(This is from the current head of the project -- I'm having other problems getting it to list any brokers or topics, although I see them listed in zookeeper and kafka.)

Jeff, the JSON API is accessed using http://localhost:8088/settings.json, http://localhost:8088/zookeepers.json and so on; not http://localhost:8088/api/zookeepers.json. The URL http://localhost:8088/api/console is used to access the API console and play around with the JSON api.
