REST API

The Barkeep server has a RESTful HTTP API for retrieving data programmatically (e.g. with the Barkeep client, see below).

HTTP Method	Route	Required parameters	Optional parameters	Result
POST	/api/add_repo	url	none	This route adds a git repo to Barkeep for tracking.
GET	/api/commits/{repo_name}/{sha}	none	none	This gives the user information about a single commit. The sha provided must be a full 40 characters. The result is a JSON-formatted map: { "approved":[boolean], "approved_by":[user name and email (string)], "approved_at": [unix timestamp (int)], "comment_count":[number of comments (int)], "link":[link for viewing this commit (string)] }
