API

[dronov]

Hello @samuels410 ! We have a list of features according with API.

• 1.Get recent donors (public api no token ,GET)
• 2.Search donors (public api no token ,POST)
• 3.List requirements (public api no token,GET)
• 4.User registration (need oath & token)
• 5.Post requirement (Need user token,POST)

Could you tell me about the last unchecked requirements? Thank you.

5.Post requirement (Need user token,POST)
As part of the helpalife.in feature, registered users can post blood requirement in our site.

https://github.com/samuels410/helpalife/blob/master/app/controllers/needs_controller.rb#L12

To post requirement from mobile app we need to authenticate the users by access_token.
for this we can use the gem https://github.com/doorkeeper-gem/doorkeeper .

Please watch this rails casts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zN9BylV81rw This is what we are trying to implement.
After watching this video I thought we can use this stratagey for all our api instead of doing open api,
becaue open api may abused by anybody.
