ceph-rest-api is a Python WSGI module for accessing the Ceph cluster.
It supports most of the commands supported by the ceph CLI,
appropriately translated to HTTP GET/PUT requests. It is not a
truly RESTful interface.
Not supported at this moment: "tell", "pg <pgid>", and "daemon"
commands.
Configuration options are specified in ceph.conf, specified with
-c/--conf or obtained from $CEPH_CONF, /etc/ceph/ceph.conf,
~/.ceph/ceph.conf, or ./ceph.conf.
-n/--name specifies the client name, used for the cluster
authentication key and for the ceph.conf section name (default
is client.restapi).
restapi keyring = <keyring file>
restapi public addr = listenIP:port (default 0.0.0.0:5000)
restapi base url = <base path> (default /api/v0.1)
restapi log level = (error, warning, info, debug)
restapi log file = (default /var/log/ceph/<clientname>.log)
Primitive human-level command discovery is supported; GET from
BASEURL (say, http://localhost:5000/api/v0.1) will show an HTML
table of all commands and arguments, method supported, and help strings.

The README provides a list of packages needed to successfully
configure ceph. uuid-dev and libatomic-ops-dev are missing from
the list.

- refer to COPYING, SubmittingPatches
- a word about dependencies
- building packages
- drop the list of built binaries... it's incomplete and not very
interesting.
