RESTful api to mobile devices #13
Comments
Is @larry725 interested in making an mobile app? Welecome :) We can use exactly the same API for mobile devices, though additional workarounds are needed to keep the session with the server when you are not using a web browser. Look at For Web API, the server uses server-side session variables. But a client-side cookie is still needed to identify users.
We need
Then the server recognizes the user in session. I don't know how to do this using smartphone's library but there muse be ways to include additional HTTP header field. |
Yes, I am interested in the app. But I need some time to learn about the current code. Lol. |
You don't really need to know the whole back-end codes. This API document provides interface to get data from the server. |
@kbumsik I was thinking let Lin Huang do this. He and I are doing the senior project together. This will be an assignment for him to get more familiar with Android Development. He wants to learn more about programming, especially with Java. Larry is just here to learn about our project. Hopefully, he can pick up and start contributing something. @larry725 |

Can our APIs be used by mobile devices? How does authentication work in mobile devices using our web server. We might have a person interested in build a mobile app for this project. If we could expose these api to him, he can do it.
I assume the mechanism for doing it will be similar to our IoT nodes interacting with the web server.
