Depending on the volume, python's usage of the REST APIs I've used (like Aws

client HTTP code snippets I've seen in Google.

Classic REXX using the socket() API would be doable. But I wouldn't go there.


But the python one works great - using Rocket's ported tools.  fwiw.

All of the web APIs (HTTP etc) in Rockets z/OS Python port are broken. They haven't done the ASCII/EBCDIC work on the HTTP protocol. Until they do Rockets Python port is nothing but a broken toy.

Sounds interesting.  Anyone have any experience with it?
We are still on z/OS 1.13.  I don't know when we'll go to 2.1, much less 2.2, 
but its certainly something to consider.

I'm still open to other ideas.

Thanks!

Maybe the z/OS client web enablement toolkit?

You can use web application APIs to create a client/server application
using a
request-response protocol that can link a client residing anywhere in the
world
with any web server. Many web applications have evolved to a simpler
programming model based on representational state transfer (REST). Governed
by
a set of architectural constraints, RESTful applications can be much easier
to
develop, enabling the creation of elegant and secure web applications.
RESTful
applications typically use the ubiquitous Hypertext Transfer Protocol
(HTTP) as the
means of communication and either JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) or
Extensible Markup Language (XML) as the format of data exchange between the
client and server programs
