v6 v7 36 36 37 37 === Resource Queries === 38 The AM API allows tools to ask for everything that an aggregate has (optionally filtered to what is currently available). But it provides no standard way to ask for only what the tool wants; the tool must parse the full response to find what it wants. Could we support an option (e.g. `geni_query`) in some query language (SPARQL?), allowing aggregates to support richer resource queries? Note that this is a small piece of a potential other topic: allowing RDF format RSpecs. But that larger topic has gotten some push-back.38 The AM API allows tools to ask for everything that an aggregate has (optionally filtered to what is currently available). But it provides no standard way to ask for only what the tool wants; the tool must parse the full response to find what it wants. This capability would better support tools trying to help with topology embedding. Could we support an option (e.g. `geni_query`) in some query language (SPARQL?), allowing aggregates to support richer resource queries? Should this be a separate and optional service, or part of the AM API? Note that this is a small piece of a potential other topic: allowing RDF format RSpecs. But that larger topic has gotten some push-back. 39 39
