In complex environment it would be better to have new map option - manual link creation (at least some line between two nodes, not necessarily 'real link') instead of linkd automatic discovery.
Or some .xml file, where we can define correct links manually. Nowadays it's possible via database modification only, as far as I know.

Creating Link using Rest Service is an option. We have to rember that we should not remove this option when removing Linkd from code

Ok so from what I understand there is still no way to create links between nodes from WEB UI. Is there any way to implement this? I would like to have something like CA Spectrum offers - basically to be able to click on interface and connect it to another interface.

No, its active by default.
You need to use a full URL for any of the ReST APIs, not the base URL.
There are examples using curl interspersed with the documentation.
The main command line method for interacting with most portions of the rest interface is using the 'provision.pl' script in $OPENNMS_HOME/bin/.
