The GTango Project
##################

State :
=======
Proof of concept

Description :
=============
A Groovy Binding for the Tango Control System
 
Binding Tango :
===============
- DeviceServer.groovy = Groovy Server for Tango Device Server (tango-controls.org)
- DeviceServerProxy = A groovy client for Tango
- RestTangoServer = An HTTP REST Server for Tango 
- RestTangoClient = A groovy client for REST Tango Server

HTTP Server for Tango :
=======================
This application serves any Tango Control System as an HTTP Server.
Based on REST, only few requests are necessary
 - read attribute = (GET)
 - write attribute = (PUT)
 - add properties (POST)
 - delete properties (DELETE)
 - execute commands (GET with parameters)

For example, you can access a device's attrbute by typing http://localhost:8182/devices/sys/tg_test/1/string_scalar into your favorite browser

Launch the server
-----------------
