The BulkTrendServer Add-On to WebCTRL provides a REST style web service to retrieve trend samples more efficiently than the built in SOAP access. This Add-On is intended for use by a programmer who wants to retrieve trends remotely in an efficient manner.
A description of the different branches is in BRANCHES.md.
Data should be retrieved using an HTTP Post request to a URL of webctrl-server/bulktrendserver/read. After installing the BulkTrendServer add-on, the documentation will be available at the /bulktrendserver URL on your WebCTRL site. The source for the documentation is in this project at src/main/webapp/doc.html.
See alclabs Bulk Trend Client tool project for a sample java application that can retrieve data from this add-on.
The ALCshare.com site should be used for discussion or support for this add-on. Binaries for this and other add-ons are available there.
