API

appserver.io up from version 1.1.1 comes with a RESTFul JSON API that can be browsed with the bundled Swagger UI via the URL http://127.0.0.1:9024/swagger-ui/.

The API itself has been implemented as a Web Application using the Servlet Engine and follows the json:api specification.

Availability

To make it available, the IP for the responsible server has to be changed from 127.0.0.1 to one, that is reachable from the internet or 0.0.0.0 to listen to all IP addresses bound to the server's network interfaces.
