-Setup PVE Development Environment
-====================================
+= Setup PVE Development Environment =
-1. Install Debian 'jessie'
+1. Install Debian 'stretch'
2. Configure pvetest repository in apt sources.list
-3. make sure you have a read IP address for your hostname in /etc/hosts
+
+ deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian stretch pvetest
+
+3. Add our repository key with apt-key:
+
+ wget -O- "http://download.proxmox.com/debian/key.asc" | apt-key add -
+
+4. make sure you have a read IP address for your hostname in /etc/hosts
(using 127.0.1.1 will not work)
-3. run: apt-get update
-3. run: apt-get dist-upgrade
-4. run: apt-get install proxmox-ve-3.10.0
-5. Install prerequisites for development environment:
+5. run: apt-get update
+6. run: apt-get dist-upgrade
+7. run: apt-get install proxmox-ve
-# new jessie depends
+You should now have a working Proxmox VE installation.

-REST vs. SOAP
-=============
+= REST vs. SOAP =
We decided to change our SOAP API (1.X) and use a REST like API. The
concept is described in [1] (Resource Oriented Architecture
REST API using JSON. So we were able to remove the server side
template toolkit completely.
-JSON and JSON Schema
-====================
+= JSON and JSON Schema =
We use JSON as data format, because it is simple and parse-able by any
web browser.
- automatic generation of API documentation
- easy way to create command line tools (using same API).
-API Implementation (PVE::RESTHandler)
-=====================================
+= API Implementation (PVE::RESTHandler) =
All classes exposing methods on the API use PVE::RESTHandler as base class.
type => 'string',
},
code => sub {
- my ($conn, $resp, $param) = @_;
+ my ($param) = @_;
return $param->{text};
}
The HTTP server use the URL (a path) to find the corresponding method.
