Set

Set data in api.ldev.no with HTTP POST towards http://api.ldev.no. Below is a list of parameters. Please note that api.ldev.no creates a timestamp on the selected item, to be able to retrive it based on time with «Get».

Get

Fetches data from api.ldev.no and provides it to the client as JSON.

application (required)

Specifies which application this is. The application must be registered and approved to use set/get. Allowed characters: A-Za-z0-9_-


Examples:
  • app1
  • schwingerschwongschwang

key (required)

The key is used to identify the data assosiated with it. To retrieve the value, the key must be supplied in the «Get» operation


Examples:
  • vehicle_type
  • temperature

value (required)

The value you want stored. This could be anything from strings to ints. Since the data will be returned as JSON, it does not make much sense so store JSON directly as value.


Examples:
  • 1
  • 1.234
  • Pølse
  • a/b:c*d

application (required)

See application under «Set»

key (required)

See key under «Set»

timeframe (optional)

Time in seconds. Only makes sense in a data series. Defaults to 3600 seconds (1 hour)

starting_point (optional)

Unix timestamp (in whole seconds, e.g. "int") for when the first data point should be collected. «timeframe» and «starting_point« together provides granularity in time selection of series (e.g. usefull for pagination).


Examples:
  • 1234567890

last (optional)

With this parameter set, api.ldev.no will only return the last value for the series. This parameter overrides both «timeframe» and «starting_point».
