Steps to use API to upload Spots

Notes:

modified_timestamp is unix_time + milliseconds for a total of 13 digits.

id is unix_time + 4 random integers for a total of 14 digits.

All API calls use HTTP Basic Auth for authentication

First, create a project...

POST https://strabospot.org/db/project

{
   "modified_timestamp":1512678555360,
   "description":{
      "project_name":"My test project"
   },
   "date":"2017-12-07T20:28:54.036Z",
   "id":15126785340366
}

Next, create a dataset...

POST https://strabospot.org/db/dataset

{
   "name":"My Test Dataset",
   "date":"2017-12-07T20:28:54.116Z",
   "id":15126785341167,
   "modified_timestamp":1512678534116
}

Next, add dataset to project...

POST https://strabospot.org/db/projectDatasets/15126785340366

{
	"id":15126785341167
}

Next, upload your image(s) using the API:

POST: https://strabospot.org/db/image

Due to a file being uploaded, this service accepts multiple POST variables:

Variable Name: "id" - ID of image being uploaded. (required)
Variable Name: "image_file" - File containing image to be uploaded. (required)


Also, please note the the encapsulation type MUST be set to "multipart/form-data".

Note: Due to the complexity of using multipart/form-data, a test page has been created to test this service. This page can be found at: https://strabospot.org/imageupload.

Next, use datasetspots controller to add spots to dataset...

POST https://strabospot.org/db/datasetspots/15126785341167
