API Endpoints

SignUp (User Schema)

Test the API (POST)

  1. Open a new terminal located at the root of this project and type http POST localhost:8000/api/signup username="user2" password="password2" email="testing2@test.com"
  2. You should get a JSON response with a 200 status code, and a token for future authentication, like this example:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Length: 205
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8

SignIn (User Schema)

Test the API (GET)

After making a POST, you can make a GET request by signing in.

  1. Make a GET request, like this example: http GET localhost:8000/api/signin -a user3:password3 since upon splitting off the end of the Basic base64 string, we can transform this into a UTF-8 string and grab the username and password as they are now available and split with a : -- ex: username:password. The -a allows for authorization, as explained here: http://blog.mashape.com/postman-httpie-test-apis/.

  2. You should get a JSON response with a 200 status code, like this example:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Length: 205
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
