Description

HATEOAS or RMM level 3 API describes relationships between resources and links, so it allows a client to navigate across resources just by following their specified Links.

Example:
  • From /roo@t resource a client gets the list of child resources (e.g.: /cluster@).
  • From there (/cluster) they get a list of subordinate resources: (/cluster/hosts@, /cluster/logs, /cluster/config, ...).
  • From the list of hosts they can go the a specific host "example.com" and get their OSDs (/cluster/hosts/example.com/osds).
  • If the list of OSDs include more than the pagination limit (e.g.: 10), the response is limited to 10 OSDs, but a link to the next paginated (Link: </cluster/hosts/example.com/osds/?page=1>; rel="next").

An API supporting HATEOAS can be browsed by HATEOAS compliant client.
