Issue

How does the Mesos REST API work?
I would like to understand what is behind cje run support-mesos.

Environment

CloudBees Jenkins Enterprise (CJE) 1.x
Mesos

Resolution

Mesos provides a list HTTP Endpoints and for Masters and Agents.

IMPORTANT: This endpoints are used by cje run support-mesos (see [How to use cje command line tools]) to extract relevant information about the Mesos component in your CJE cluster .

Following some examples of the Mesos API REST for master and slaves (Note: cje run support-mesos is the recommendation) as the scope of this article is understanding the API

Master

System:

curl -u $MESOS_USER:$MESOS_PASSWORD -X GET http://mesos.$CLUSTER_FQDN/system/stats.json

Slaves:

curl -u $MESOS_USER:$MESOS_PASSWORD -X GET http://mesos.$CLUSTER_FQDN/slaves

Slave

System:

curl -u $MESOS_USER:$MESOS_PASSWORD -X GET http://$SLAVE_HOST_NAME:$SLAVE_PORT/system/stats.json

where:

$CLUSTER_FQDN is the domain name of palace in your cluster:
$MESOS_USER is the palace username
$MESOS_PASSWORD is the palace password
$SLAVE_HOST_NAME is one mesos slave hostname
$SLAVE_PORT is one mesos slave port

Concrete example

From the root of the CJE project, you can retrieve the different variables:

export MESOS_USER=$(cje run echo-secrets mesos_web_ui_username)
export MESOS_PASSWORD=$(cje run echo-secrets mesos_web_ui_password)
export CLUSTER_FQDN=$(awk '/domain_name/ {print $3}' .dna/project.config)

Slave | System

From one of the listed slaves from the command above we selected get the $PORT from pid and the
hostname then:

$ curl -u $MESOS_USER:$MESOS_PASSWORD -X GET http://$example.slave.com:5051/system/stats.json
{
avg_load_15min: 1.56,
avg_load_1min: 2.14,
