Basic API #117

Open loehndorf opened 4 years ago

loehndorf commented 4 years ago

I was planning on running multiple scenarios based on distributions of the input parameters to move a way from a deterministic scenarios to quantile projections. This may be more helpful for decision-makers; hospitals, for example, that cannot take the predictions by face value, but that would plan for the most likely outcome and prepare for less likely ones.

The problem so far is that I must manually use the web interface to run different scenarios. It would be nice to have an API that accepts parameters as HTTP request and then throws out a CSV.
