Create an api for communication between the server and clients #4

Open ujjwalt opened 11 years ago

ujjwalt commented 11 years ago

We require an api for communication between a client and the server for tasks like :-

This has to be an http api

@karimkhanp: There doesn't seem to be an easy way to find the free ram of mac os x. That is concerned with how the memory model of mac works. But right now we can't switch to Linux because of the sandboxing facility. So on OSX our client does not need to determine wether to work or not on the basis of system resources. It can request work straight away and we can make a commitment such as not to use more than 100MB of RAM

Ok, For login upload and other work, we just provide command line access right now or GUI is possible? I saw Networking for Go book, they have explained https api for authentication, file transfer.

And we keep working on Mac now, and problem you mentioned we keep as limitation for current system version.

It's not a limitation. There are apis for finding the free ram but they're not very direct and will most probably involve the use of cgo. If we go through feb then surely we can incorporate this and even add support for linux
