Cluster Applications API

With the Applications API, you can obtain a collection of resources, each of which represents an application. When you run a GET operation on this resource, you obtain a collection of Application Objects.

URI

  * http://<rm http address:port>/ws/v1/cluster/apps

HTTP Operations Supported 

  * GET

Query Parameters Supported

Multiple parameters can be specified for GET operations. The started and finished times have a begin and end parameter to allow you to specify ranges. For example, one could request all applications that started between 1:00am and 2:00pm on 12/19/2011 with startedTimeBegin=1324256400&startedTimeEnd=1324303200. If the Begin parameter is not specified, it defaults to 0, and if the End parameter is not specified, it defaults to infinity.

  * state [deprecated] - state of the application
  * states - applications matching the given application states, specified as a comma-separated list.
  * finalStatus - the final status of the application - reported by the application itself
  * user - user name
  * queue - queue name
  * limit - total number of app objects to be returned
  * startedTimeBegin - applications with start time beginning with this time, specified in ms since epoch
  * startedTimeEnd - applications with start time ending with this time, specified in ms since epoch
  * finishedTimeBegin - applications with finish time beginning with this time, specified in ms since epoch
  * finishedTimeEnd - applications with finish time ending with this time, specified in ms since epoch
  * applicationTypes - applications matching the given application types, specified as a comma-separated list.
  * applicationTags - applications matching any of the given application tags, specified as a comma-separated list.

Elements of the apps (Applications) object

When you make a request for the list of applications, the information will be returned as a collection of app objects. See also Application API for syntax of the app object.

Item Data Type Description
app array of app objects(JSON)/zero or more application objects(XML) The collection of application objects

Cluster Application Statistics API

With the Application Statistics API, you can obtain a collection of triples, each of which contains the application type, the application state and the number of applications of this type and this state in ResourceManager context. Note that with the performance concern, we currently only support at most one applicationType per query. We may support multiple applicationTypes per query as well as more statistics in the future. When you run a GET operation on this resource, you obtain a collection of statItem objects.

URI

  * http://<rm http address:port>/ws/v1/cluster/appstatistics

HTTP Operations Supported

  * GET

Query Parameters Required

Two paramters can be specified. The parameters are case insensitive.

  * states - states of the applications, specified as a comma-separated list. If states is not provided, the API will enumerate all application states and return the counts of them.
  * applicationTypes - types of the applications, specified as a comma-separated list. If applicationTypes is not provided, the API will count the applications of any application type.

Cluster Applications API(Submit Application)

The Submit Applications API can be used to submit applications. In case of submitting applications, you must first obtain an application-id using the Cluster New Application API. The application-id must be part of the request body. The response contains a URL to the application page which can be used to track the state and progress of your application.

URI

  * http://<rm http address:port>/ws/v1/cluster/apps

HTTP Operations Supported 

  * POST

POST Response Examples

POST requests can be used to submit apps to the ResourceManager. As mentioned above, an application-id must be obtained first. Successful submissions result in a 202 response code and a Location header specifying where to get information about the app. Please note that in order to submit an app, you must have an authentication filter setup for the HTTP interface. The functionality requires that a username is set in the HttpServletRequest. If no filter is setup, the response will be an "UNAUTHORIZED" response.

Please note that this feature is currently in the alpha stage and may change in the future.

Cluster Application State API

With the application state API, you can query the state of a submitted app as well kill a running app by modifying the state of a running app using a PUT request with the state set to "KILLED". To perform the PUT operation, authentication has to be setup for the RM web services. In addition, you must be authorized to kill the app. Currently you can only change the state to "KILLED"; an attempt to change the state to any other results in a 400 error response. Examples of the unauthorized and bad request errors are below. When you carry out a successful PUT, the iniital response may be a 202. You can confirm that the app is killed by repeating the PUT request until you get a 200, querying the state using the GET method or querying for app information and checking the state. In the examples below, we repeat the PUT request and get a 200 response.

Please note that in order to kill an app, you must have an authentication filter setup for the HTTP interface. The functionality requires that a username is set in the HttpServletRequest. If no filter is setup, the response will be an "UNAUTHORIZED" response.

This feature is currently in the alpha stage and may change in the future.

Cluster Delegation Tokens API

The Delegation Tokens API can be used to create, renew and cancel YARN ResourceManager delegation tokens. All delegation token requests must be carried out on a Kerberos authenticated connection(using SPNEGO). Carrying out operations on a non-kerberos connection will result in a FORBIDDEN response. In case of renewing a token, only the renewer specified when creating the token can renew the token. Other users(including the owner) are forbidden from renewing tokens. It should be noted that when cancelling or renewing a token, the token to be cancelled or renewed is specified by setting a header.

This feature is currently in the alpha stage and may change in the future.

URI

Use the following URI to create and cancel delegation tokens.

  * http://<rm http address:port>/ws/v1/cluster/delegation-token

Use the following URI to renew delegation tokens.

  * http://<rm http address:port>/ws/v1/cluster/delegation-token/expiration

HTTP Operations Supported

  * POST
  * DELETE

Query Parameters Supported

  None

Elements of the delegation-token object

The response from the delegation tokens API contains one of the fields listed below.

Item Data Type Description
token string The delegation token
renewer string The user who is allowed to renew the delegation token
owner string The owner of the delegation token
kind string The kind of delegation token
expiration-time long The expiration time of the token
max-validity long The maximum validity of the token

Authentication using delegation tokens

This feature is in the alpha mode and may change in the future.

You can use delegation tokens to authenticate yourself when using YARN RM webservices. However, this requires setting the right configurations. The conditions for this are:

  • Hadoop is setup in secure mode with the authentication type set to kerberos.
  • Hadoop HTTP authentication is setup with the authentication type set to kerberos

Once setup, delegation tokens can be fetched using the web services listed above and used as shown in an example below:

  PUT http://<rm http address:port>/ws/v1/cluster/apps/application_1399397633663_0003/state
  X-Hadoop-Delegation-Token: MgASY2xpZW50QEVYQU1QTEUuQ09NDHRlc3QtcmVuZXdlcgCKAUbjqcHHigFHB7ZFxwQCFKWD3znCkDSy6SQIjRCLDydxbxvgE1JNX0RFTEVHQVRJT05fVE9LRU4A
  Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF8
