Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for automatically discovering an API for publishing within a data repository. A discovery tool is used either on a server computer or a customer computer to examine the files stored in the data repository. A search of the repository is conducted to identify root API files that form the basis of an API. A first examination is conducted in which the files are examined for common indicia associated with known API standards. Then a second examination is done of the root API candidates found in the first examination to identify which of the root API candidates is actually a root API. Once the root API has been located, it is executed in a computer environment, and its dependents are detected. Once all the necessary API files have been located, they are packaged and automatically published.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for providing asynchronous backend processing of complex, time consuming, and/or expensive jobs. A command line interface (CLI) provides a command interface between a user and a backend processing server. The CLI sends a job request to the backend server, which immediately replies to the request with a confirmation message that includes a job identifier. This response is sufficient to allow the CLI to end its wait for the job response. Meanwhile, the backend server carries out the job by parsing the job into component tasks according to a declaration file and assigns those different tasks to different work servers. The backend server functions as a master server, tracking the statuses of the different tasks and assigning out new tasks until the job is complete. An overall job status is provided to the CLI upon request by referencing the job identifier.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for automatically cataloging updated Application Programming Interface (API) specifications. The API specifications may have been previously published to an application exchange platform. An automatic cataloging tool installed at an API development system may identify an updated API specification committed to an API specification repository. To validate that a change has been made, the automatic cataloging tool may compare the updated specification, metadata, and/or referenced documentation files to an API specification previously posted to the application exchange platform. In response to determining that the API specifications differ, the automatic cataloging tool may transmit the updated API specification to the application exchange platform. The application exchange platform may then replace the previous API specification with the updated API specification for client devices to view.

Abstract: Embodiments of apparatus, systems, and methods are described for creating and managing an abstract, API-based infrastructure base model. The API-based model can abstract infrastructure assets, such as infrastructure components or connections between components, into a metadata model using standardized syntax and interfaces, for defining and building an infrastructure. Using a modeling document, connections and components of an infrastructure can be abstracted into an API-based model having semantics that covers them all. Connections and infrastructure components can be made available for selection, arrangement, and grouping to build complex infrastructure models without requiring complex API coding by the user. Other infrastructure models having different API definitions can be by abstracted to standardize the assets for building new APIs. The APIs can be further modified and exported to another or the same implementation project.
