RestConsole

About

The REST console makes remote administration of the various OpenSim services possible.

Syntax

We take the user service(http://foo.bar:8002) as example here. Startup the user service with:

mono OpenSim.Grid.UserServer.exe -console rest

First start a new session by sending a POST. Params: USER, PASS

http://foo.bar:8002/StartSession/ 

Return: (XML) <ConsoleSession><SessionID></SessionID><Prompt></Prompt></ConsoleSession>

Now we got the SessionID, which can be used to send a command. Use the SessionID as ID param, and send a POST again. Params: ID, COMMAND

http://foo.bar:8002/SessionCommand/

Return: (XML) <ConsoleSession><Result></Result></ConsoleSession> If everything went well, the command should have been executed. Try another command.

When you want to close down the connection, send a POST again. PARAMS: ID

http://foo.bar:8002/CloseSession/

Return: (XML) <ConsoleSession><Result></Result></ConsoleSession> The session is closed, and you have to login again, when you want to send a command again.
