Hi all, I am Shiva Teja, an undergrad student from IIT Mandi, India. I will be participating in GSoC this year. I'd like to work on the new CloudStack UI with bootstrap project[1]. I've been experimenting with API for the past few days. After reading a couple of blog posts by Sebastien, his recent hack on this[2] and a recent discussion[3] on the mailing list about making CloudStack API RESTfull, here are the things I plan to do.
1. A more "human", RESTfull wrapper API on top of CloudStack API using Flask python framework. Something like "GET /users" will directly correspond to "listUsers" API command. "DELETE /user/<id>" will correspond to the respective "deleteUser" API call. 2. A complete UI designed using Twitter Bootstrap and Backbone.js. Obviously this will use the API that I'll be making. (An app made using Bootstrap and Backbone.js: http://coenraets.org/directory/ ) Any suggestions/comments ?
