We currently accept a nodes.json blob in the following format:

[{
    "pm_password": "foo",
    "mac": ["78:e7:d1:24:99:a5"],
    "pm_addr": "10.22.51.66",
    "pm_type": "pxe_ipmitool",
    "memory": 98304,
    "disk": 1600,
    "arch": "amd64",
    "cpu": 24,
    "pm_user": "Administrator"
},
...
]

So this might be a good starting point?
