Bharath,

I agree with Hongbin on this. Let’s not expand magnum to deal with apps or 
appgroups in the near term. If there is a strong desire to add these things, we 
could allow it by having a plugin/extensions interface for the Magnum API to 
allow additional COE specific features. Honestly, it’s just going to be a 
nuisance to keep up with the various upstreams until they become completely 
stable from an API perspective, and no additional changes are likely. All of 
our COE’s still have plenty of maturation ahead of them, so this is the wrong 
time to wrap them.

If someone really wants apps and appgroups, (s)he could add that to an 
experimental branch of the magnum client, and have it interact with the 
marathon API directly rather than trying to represent those resources in 
Magnum. If that tool became popular, then we could revisit this topic for 
further consideration.
