A public dsapi server

to publish datasets and images for SmartOS

The primary goal here is it to use the server with imgadm on SmartOS. The API is functional for that purpose and every aspect of the official API that is not needed for imgadm has second priority.

Version 0.1.1 is tested with imgadm on platform 20130125T031721Z.

Why did we build this?

there is already the official repository for datasets so this one is useless

NO - ever tried to publish own images onto the official server? The community builds datasets from time to time and it's a bummer that those are not usable by a larger group of the community

Differences from the official dsapi

• all images on the server are public and can be downloaded by everyone
• there is only a basic authentication for uploads without a central users database
• maybe not all API methods are implemented
