<span style="color:red">This page contains non-validated information about the APIs of the EGI middleware services. Consult with the provider of the particular service for further information. Use the [http://helpdesk.egi.eu/ EGI helpdesk] to contact the middleware service providers.</span>
 
This wiki page provides information about Application Programming Interfaces (API) that exist for application developers to connect community/user specific applications to services of the European Grid Infrastructure. The information on this page has been collected by the User Community Support Team of EGI.eu in order to:
 
* Provide a single documentation about EGI APIs for the application developers
* Provide a structure for collecting feedback about service APIs (about individual APIs and about conherency/compatibility of multiple APIs)
 
If you have any feedback, comment, correction or addition to the table, please email this to '''ucst@egi.eu''', or make the changes yourself ([https://www.egi.eu/sso/ EGI SSO account] is required for editing.)
 
* Information about graphical environments to interact with the European Grid Infrastructure can be found in the EGI Application Database: http://appdb.egi.eu. (Both reusable tools for software developers and reusable applications for scientific end users are available in the database.)
* Information about command line interfaces of the middleware services of the European Grid Infrastructure can be found at [[User_Interfaces]].

* [https://rt.egi.eu/guest/Ticket/Display.html?id=914 #914] - LSGC would like to see WS and Java API for all middleware services.
* [https://rt.egi.eu/guest/Ticket/Display.html?id=2769 #2769] - APIs are not integrated enough. For example to transfer a single file from one site to another one has to use three different APIs.

Latest revision as of 19:54, 24 July 2013

This page contains non-validated information about the APIs of the EGI middleware services. Consult with the provider of the particular service for further information. Use the EGI helpdesk to contact the middleware service providers.

This wiki page provides information about Application Programming Interfaces (API) that exist for application developers to connect community/user specific applications to services of the European Grid Infrastructure. The information on this page has been collected by the User Community Support Team of EGI.eu in order to:

  • Provide a single documentation about EGI APIs for the application developers
  • Provide a structure for collecting feedback about service APIs (about individual APIs and about conherency/compatibility of multiple APIs)

If you have any feedback, comment, correction or addition to the table, please email this to ucst@egi.eu, or make the changes yourself (EGI SSO account is required for editing.)

  • Information about graphical environments to interact with the European Grid Infrastructure can be found in the EGI Application Database: http://appdb.egi.eu. (Both reusable tools for software developers and reusable applications for scientific end users are available in the database.)
  • Information about command line interfaces of the middleware services of the European Grid Infrastructure can be found at User_Interfaces.
