Eric Yang edited comment on YARN-8161 at 4/18/18 3:04 AM: ---------------------------------------------------------- [~gsaha] Thank you for filing this issue. The current REST API performs operations such as: {code} curl -i --negotiate -u : -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d@/tmp/flex.json http://eyang-2.openstacklocal:8088/app/v1/services/q1/components/ping {code} The payload of JSON shows: {code} { "number_of_containers" : 3, "state" : "FLEXING" } {code} The state is in progressive tense. There is no clear indicator when querying GET status API, whether AM is actually performing the operation, or the state was set by user who issued the operation request. It would be nice to enhance the API to be more responsive by separating user requested operation and state change. For example, the pay load could be: {code} { "number_of_containers" : 3, "state" : "FLEX" } {code} Application Master code will change to FLEXING when operation is being worked on. GET status API is invoked. {code} ... { "number_of_containers" : 3, "state" : "FLEXING" } ... {code} When operation is finished, it reaches STABLE state: {code} ... { "number_of_containers" : 3, "state" : "STABLE" } ... {code} The state transition provides better user feedback between state being triggered, or server is currently working on the operation. The original code was written such that -flex operation is in cli code, which switch to FLEXING when it reaches REST API. For third party developer that does not rely on cli code base, this can be confusing. I think more feedback from the community, can help to decide to simplify code base by removing present tense state transition, or adding present tense transition for better user feedback. was (Author: eyang): [~gsaha] Thank you for filing this issue.
