Selfie-Cam: Software API #10

Open SeanTedesco opened 2 years ago

SeanTedesco commented 2 years ago

Motivation ⛰️

The Selfie-Cam is to be used as an application program by the OBC. As such, the PAYLOAD team must provide an Application Programming Interface (API) so the OBC knows how to interact with the PAYLOAD program.

From RedHat: "APIS are sometimes thought of as contracts, with documentation that represents an agreement between parties: If party 1 sends a remote request structured a particular way, this is how party 2’s software will respond."
