A service resource represents a service inside MaxScale. A service is a
collection of network listeners, filters, a router and a set of backend servers.
Resource Operations
The :name in all of the URIs must be the name of a service in MaxScale.

} Create a service
Create a new service by defining the resource. The posted object must define at
least the following fields.
Type of the object, must be services
data.attributes.parameters.user
data.attributes.parameters.password
The data.attributes.parameters object is used to define router and service
parameters. All configuration parameters that can be defined in the
configuration file can also be added to the parameters object. The exceptions to
this are the type, router, servers and filters parameters which must not
be defined.
As with other REST API resources, the data.relationships field defines the
relationships of the service to other resources. Services can have two types of
relationships: servers and filters relationships.
If the request body defines a valid relationships object, the service is
linked to those resources. For servers, this is equivalent to adding the list of
server names into theservers parameter. For
filters, this is equivalent to adding the filters in thedata.relationships.filters.data array to thefilters parameter in the
order they appear. For other services, this is equivalent to adding the list of
server names into thetargets parameter.
The following example defines a new service with both a server and a filter
relationship.
Copy {
"data": {
"id": "my-service",
"type": "services",
"attributes": {
"router": "readwritesplit",
"parameters": {
"user": "maxuser",
"password": "maxpwd"
}
},
"relationships": {
"filters": {
"data": [
{
"id": "QLA",
"type": "filters"
}
]
},
"servers": {
"data": [
{
"id": "server1",
"type": "servers"
}
]
}
}
}
} Response
Service is created:
Status: 204 No Content
Destroy a service
Copy DELETE /v1/services/:name A service can only be destroyed if the service uses no servers or filters and
all the listeners pointing to the service have been destroyed. This means that
the data.relationships must be an empty object and data.attributes.listeners
must be an empty array in order for the service to qualify for destruction.
If there are open client connections that use the service when it is destroyed,
they are allowed to gracefully close before the service is destroyed. This means
that the destruction of a service can be acknowledged via the REST API before
the destruction process has fully completed.
To find out whether a service is still in use after it has been destroyed, thesessions resource should be used. If a session for
the service is still open, it has not yet been destroyed.
This endpoint also supports the force=yes parameter that will unconditionally
delete the service by first unlinking it from all servers and filters that it
uses.
Response
Service is destroyed:
Status: 204 No Content
Update a service
Copy PATCH /v1/services/:name The request body must be a JSON object which represents a set of new definitions
for the service.
All standard service parameters can be modified. Refer to theservice documentation on
the details of these parameters.
In addition to the standard service parameters, router parameters can be updated
at runtime if the router module supports it. Refer to the individual router
documentation for more details on whether the router supports it and which
parameters can be updated at runtime.
The following example modifies a service by changing the user parameter to admin.
Copy {
"data": {
"attributes": {
"parameters": {
"user": "admin"
}
}
}
} Response
Service is modified:
Status: 204 No Content
Update service relationships
Copy PATCH /v1/services/:name/relationships/:type The :type in the URI must be either servers , services or filters ,
depending on which relationship is being modified.
The request body must be a JSON object that defines only the data field. The
value of the data field must be an array of relationship objects that define
the id and type fields of the relationship. This object will replace the
existing relationships of this type for the service.
Note: The order of the values in the filters relationship will define the
order the filters are set up in. The order in which the filters appear in the
array will be the order in which the filters are applied to each query. Refer
to the filters parameter
for more details.
The following is an example request and request body that defines a single
server relationship for a service that is equivalent to a servers=my-server
parameter.
Copy PATCH /v1/services/my-rw-service/relationships/servers
{
data: [
{ "id": "my-server", "type": "servers" }
]
} All relationships for a service can be deleted by sending an empty array as thedata field value. The following example removes all servers from a service.
Copy PATCH /v1/services/my-rw-service/relationships/servers
{
data: []
} Response
Service relationships modified:
Status: 204 No Content
Invalid JSON body:
Status: 403 Forbidden
Stop a service
Copy PUT /v1/services/:name/stop Stops a started service.
Parameters
This endpoint supports the following parameters:
Close all existing connections that were created through this listener.
Response
Service is stopped:
Status: 204 No Content
Start a service
Copy PUT /v1/services/:name/start Starts a stopped service.
Response
Service is started:
Status: 204 No Content
Reload users of a service
Copy POST /v1/services/:name/reload Reloads the list of database users used for authentication.
Response
Users are reloaded:
Status: 204 No Content
Get service listeners
Copy GET /v1/services/:name/listeners This endpoint is deprecated, use thethis listeners endpoint instead.
Get a single service listener
Copy GET /v1/services/:name/listeners/:listener This endpoint is deprecated, use the this
listeners endpoint instead.
Create a new listener
Copy POST /v1/services/:name/listeners This endpoint is deprecated, use thethis listeners endpoint instead.
Destroy a listener
Copy DELETE /v1/services/:service/listeners/:name This endpoint is deprecated, use thethis listeners endpoint instead.
