Here's the specifications for the KTH places API.

EricLewe commented 8 years ago

I have recieved a mail from the IT Administration at KTH, we need a key from them inorder to use their API, this is to ensure that we get notified if there are changes occuring in the API in order to secure our own code from being :bug: . However they said we will recieve the key this week. So we will see if it gets there on time.

The following data is useful for us to extract from webrequests:

GET /v3/room/name/{name} If there is power outlets or not in the room also the following fields: floorUid imageUrls geodata buildingName campus typeName placeName uid id //Not sure if needed

GET /v3/room/exists/{id} this is used to make sure the room specifed exists

GET /v3/room/id/{id}/freeSeats is useful if we want to monitor computer labs spaces, perhaps possible to make lab scheduled things automatically display free seats

GET /v3/floorplan/{id} get floor image, which I currently dont know what to pass in.

The principle is now implemented and addig future features are easily possible!
