###Endpoints

All requests originate from the following URL

http://lendme-dmnhackathon.rhcloud.com/

The server handles data based on the endpoint you request. To put or pull data from the database, use the format below:

/action/<login|post|put>

Requests that require parameters, using the POST method for example, are formatted as such:

{
    parmeter1 : "parameter_value", 
    parmeter2 : "parameter_value"
}

Requests to any endpoints using the /put format must be done with a POST method. Think of them as actions that require data to be "pushed" to the server / database in order to obtain a result

• login takes two parameters

  • username String containing a user identifier
  • password String containing a user password

• put takes two parameters

  • table database table where row will
  • data String of data to put into database

Requests to any endpoints using the /get must be done with a GET method. Think of them as actions that simply request specific data. Formats for this action are shown below:

• <table_name> String containing the name of the table where the item resides
• <identifier_type> How you plan on retrieving the data, by id, username, etc... (If all is used, every item on the database is returned.
• <identifier> String containing the identifier of the item you wish to retrieve from the table (user_id, user_username)

An example GET request might look like:

/get/item/id/1

/get/user/username/masonjar
