Public REST API?

#1

Are there any plans for making a public, documented REST API for concourse?
I tried out implementing a small python concourse lib for which I used [1] as reference.
Unfortunately it seems like the API is not that stable and also the authentication feels quite hacky…

Background is that we have concourse instances running in multiple landscapes and would like to have a single dashboard to see failed builds etc. . I could you use the fly CLI but I would like to avoid using binaries and instead use a REST API.

This is something that has been on the radar for a while but hasn’t happened yet. That routes.go you linked is the best “documentation” of the API that I’ve ever been able to find. Someone from the Concourse team may be able to give you a better answer on whether this is something that is coming soon. (ping @vito)

It isn’t quite what you’re looking for but I’ve worked with client who use go-concourse-summary to monitor their various Concourses (Concii?).
