Description Alan Santos 2012-08-02 13:06:09 UTC 
Description of problem:

There's no way to discover available links from the top level REST api 

Currently a user must browse the documentation to discover links. While WADL may be overkill, perhaps a simple JSON object of links could be returned..

e.g.

wget http://127.0.0.1:7080/rest

"links": [
            {
                "rel": "resources",
                "href": "/rest/1/resource/"
            }

etc...

Also - the '1' seems unintuitive in paths...
Comment 1 Heiko W. Rupp 2013-03-05 07:03:23 UTC 
The '1' is long gone in master and a / resource has been added long before the RHQ 4.6 release
Comment 2 Larry O'Leary 2013-09-06 14:30:53 UTC 
As this is MODIFIED or ON_QA, setting milestone to ER1.
