[racktables-users] Re: RESTful API for RackTables

RackTables makes it very easy to extend it, but the price you pay is that you must use PHP.

It gets me crazy when people try to fetch data directly from the DB over and over again.

They suffer from undocumented and changing DB schema. The right solution for this kind of problems is to write data exporters in PHP, using all the functions RackTables already has to work with its DB.

Anyway, I'm attempting to gather all the discussion about a RESTful API for
RackTables in one place.  I hope this is useful.

I'd like to see any language-agnostic way to access/update the data -
even a stable/published database schema or stored procedures for
direct sql  access.
