A RESTful interface to landlab graphs.

Quickstart

Use conda to install the necessary requirements and landlab_rest,

$ conda install --file=requirements.txt -c conda-forge
$ pip install .

Start the server,

$ start-sketchbook

Look at the line containing Serving on to see what host and port the server is running on. Alternatively, you can use the –host and –port options to specify a specific host and port (–help for help).

Now you should be able to send requests to the server. For instance, to get a RasterModelGrid,

$ curl https://0.0.0.0:8080/graphs/raster

For a list of supported graphs

$ curl https://0.0.0.0:8080/graphs/

You can pass parameters like,

$ curl 'https://0.0.0.0:8080/graphs/raster?shape=4,5&spacing=2.,1.'

Docker

To build a new docker image that will be a landlab-rest server,

docker build . -t landlab-rest

After building, run the server,

docker run -it -p 80:80 landlab-rest

Once running, you can then send requests to the server. For example,

$ curl https://0.0.0.0/graphs/raster
