Hi,

There is no REST/SOAP API, but there is a high-level C API being
developed that will make it much easier to create such things. The C
API will eventually have C function equivalents of all command-line
tool options, producing XML output that is the same as if the command
were run with --output-as=xml.

The equivalents of a few commands are already available, including
crm_simulate and crmadmin, and crm_mon will be added with the next
release.

In the meantime, most people just execute the command-line tools
directly from their code.
