Managing convoy command through REST API #176

Hello,

Is it possible to execute snapshot/backup/restore via REST API ? Would you be interested by a PR about this feature ?

Thanks a lot Best regards

I do not represent anyone associated with convoy, but ...

This "feature" already exists. You can access the complete convoy REST api by sending requests to the /var/run/convoy/convoy.sock socket. I have created a "node-convoy" project, a library you can use in NodeJS scripts for managing convoy using the API. Even if you don't use NodeJS, you could look at the source code to see how it works.

See: https://github.com/peebles/node-convoy

@peebles is right, all the API already exists through the local socket.
