This patch adds a RESTful HTTP interface to Asterisk.
The API itself is documented using Swagger, a lightweight mechanism for
documenting RESTful API's using JSON. This allows us to use swagger-ui
to provide executable documentation for the API, generate client
bindings in different languages, and generate a lot of the boilerplate
code for implementing the RESTful bindings. The API docs live in the
rest-api/ directory.
The RESTful bindings are generated from the Swagger API docs using a set
of Mustache templates. The code generator is written in Python, and
uses Pystache. Pystache has no dependencies, and be installed easily
using pip. Code generation code lives in rest-api-templates/.
The generated code reduces a lot of boilerplate when it comes to
handling HTTP requests. It also helps us have greater consistency in the
REST API.
