At DLS we are currently looking at integrating our Odin detectors (Excalibur, Percival, TimePix), which have a RESTful API, into areaDetector. The main target being Excalibur at the moment. I like the rest interface implemented by Bruno Martins in ADEiger, so I think it would be worthwhile to extract the generic parts of it to use for my use case. ADEiger could then be refactored to use the new module. This leads to a few questions:
Does a standalone epics module implementing a rest client API already exist?
Is this a good design for such an interface?
Should it be called rest, or restclient, allowing a separate restserver module to be created should that be useful in the future?
Cheers,
Gary
