Expose toml contents and location via http #319

Closed stuarteberg closed 1 year ago

stuarteberg commented 5 years ago

Currently, if I'm curious about how a given DVID server is configured, I have to ssh into the machine where it's running, figure out where the toml file is located (not always easy), and inspect it.

It would be nice if DVID exposed an endpoint such as .../api/server/config or .../api/server/toml which returns the complete toml file contents (including comments, etc.), and also showed the filepath to the toml file (say, as a comment inserted at the top of the file).

@DocSavage Can we bump the priority of this, BTW? Is it easy to implement?

The DVID server can return the TOML file location and contents, but under docker swarm the actual TOML location can be aliased so it's not the true path. For non-containerized DVID servers, the location should be correct. I'll add TOML file location to api/server/info endpoint and the TOML contents itself in a new api/server/config endpoint.
