RJ Nowling commented on SPARK-3644: ----------------------------------- [~joshrosen] Several users commented above about using a REST API for submitting and killing jobs to support integration with Sahara and web-based front-ends. Adding support for killing jobs shouldn't be too hard. Submitting jobs is properly harder to add at the moment since the Spark master doesn't exist until the application is launched. But I think we should acknowledge the needs of these users instead of just closing this JIRA. > REST API for Spark application info (jobs / stages / tasks / storage info) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-3644 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3644 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Spark Core, Web UI > Reporter: Josh Rosen > Assignee: Imran Rashid > Fix For: 1.4.0 > > > This JIRA is a forum to draft a design proposal for a REST interface for > accessing information about Spark applications, such as job / stage / task / > storage status. > There have been a number of proposals to serve JSON representations of the > information displayed in Spark's web UI. Given that we might redesign the > pages of the web UI (and possibly re-implement the UI as a client of a REST > API), the API endpoints and their responses should be independent of what we > choose to display on particular web UI pages / layouts. > Let's start a discussion of what a good REST API would look like from > first-principles. We can discuss what urls / endpoints expose access to > data, how our JSON responses will be formatted, how fields will be named, how > the API will be documented and tested, etc. > Some links for inspiration: > https://developer.github.com/v3/ > http://developer.netflix.com/docs/REST_API_Reference > https://helloreverb.com/developers/swagger -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
