RimuHosting's REST-ful Resources Reference

• These APIs are in beta and are subject to change. Please feel free to experiment with them. If you need to rely on them being stable, please contact RimuHosting so we can advise.
• These URIs are currently running on https://api.rimuhosting.com. This may change. For example, a sample URL would be https://rimuhosting.com/r/pricing-plans
• The most reliable data marshalling media type at this point is application/json. Include 'Accept: application/json' and 'Content-Type: application/json' headers in your requests.
• You will need an authorization key to use most of the resources.

Path: / r / orders / order-{order-oid}-{domain} / vps / reinstall

Reinstall a VPS. Most of the arguments will default to the existing ones unless over ridden. You can pass in things like different memory values, passwords, distros, etc and we will attempt to make those changes. Input that causes a host value to change (different data center location, different host server, etc) will result in an input validation error. Use a move for changing hosts. Sample usage: curl -X PUT \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "Accept: application/json" \ -H "Authorization: rimuhosting apikey=$APIKEY" \ --data "{'reinstall_request': {}" \ "https://api.rimuhosting.com/r/orders/order-${ORDER_OID}-namedoesntmatter/reinstall"

Path parameters:

order-oid ([0-9]+) - The id of the order and a domain name.  The domain name is not used in the lookup (we rely solely on the order oid) but the name makes the uri more user-friendly.  The order oid is immuatable.  It won't change.  Even if you rename the server.  So it makes a good id.

domain ([^;/]*) - This parameter is ignored.  But having it makes the urls a little more recognizable.  Typically the VPS domain name is inserted here.
