(add to couchdb the ability to generate a list of tag names and their counts, if possible. two display options would be nice: by tag name and count. like with Grebe and Junco. need the couchdb equivalent to count(*) and group_by in SQL.)
Read a Single Post
==================
Grab my profile page, which has the _id of "profile".
Currently, the default is to return HTML only.
curl http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/posts/profile
This produces the same thing.
curl http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/posts/profile/?text=html
{
"status":200,
"description":"OK",

}
}
Get the markup. The _rev is returned for updating. To include the _rev info, the user's logged-in info must be submitted on the query string with the text=markup.
This will not include the _rev info.
curl http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/posts/profile/?text=markup
To include _rev info:
curl http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/posts/profile/?text=markup

Stream of posts from a search request
=====================================
** Currently, searches are done with GET requests. Should this change only to POST requests, or should POST requests be added to the GET requests?
String which could be comprised of one or more words
----------------------------------------------------
Search on "beer"
curl http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/searches/string/beer
Search on "craft beer"
curl http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/searches/string/craft%20beer
** Elasticsearch notes: it seems that when entering a text string surrounded by double quotes, then an exact string match is conducted by Elasticsearch. When a plus sign separates words, then it seems that an 'OR' Boolean search is conducted. I have not yet exploited the full power of Elasticsearch, such as creating patterns. Currently, I'm using only its basic functionality.
Tag search

todo : Add: curl http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/tags/beer to simplify tag searches. This exists with Grebe, but the "tags" API in Grebe performs other duties too.
todo : Grebe has AND and OR Boolean options with tag searches. Does not exist with Scaup, and I may add advanced searching functions to Veery at a later date.
Doing a string search on a hashtag
-------------------------------------
curl http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/searches/string/%23scarf
Login - creating and sending the no password login link
=======================================================
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{ "email" : "x@x.com", "url" : "http://veeryclientperl.soupmode.com/nopwdlogin"}' http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/users/login
{
"status":200,

"system_message":"A new login link has been created and sent.",
"user_message":"Creating New Login Link",
"description":"OK"
}
The 'session_id_rev' name=value is only included in the returned JSON when 'debug_mode' equals '1' in the API's YAML config file.
Login - activating the no password login link
=============================================
This will create the user's login session.
curl http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/users/login/?rev=12345
Returned JSON:
{
"author_name":"MrX",
"session_id":"50ff8f05c0f5d95aabbe7c5d810323c8",
"status":200,
"description":"OK"
}
Get User Info
=============
The submitted author name is case-sensitive, for now, with regards to the lookup within CouchDB.
This API call is used to determine if the user is logged-in.
curl http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/users/MrX
If author is found, the returned JSON:
{
"is_logged_in":0,
"status":200,
"name":"MrX",
"type":"author",
"description":"OK"
}
If author was not found, the returned JSON is:
{
"status":"400",
"description":"Bad Request",
"user_message":"Unable to complete action.",
"system_message":"Author not found. ErnestH"
}
If valid login, then additional info is returned:
curl http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/users/MrX/?author=MrX\&session_id=50ff8f05c0f5d95aabbe7c5d810340c1
{

Updating author's info
======================
At the moment, only email address can be updated because little else is stored within the author's doc that can be modified.
curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"author": "MrX", "session_id": "5aabbe7c5d810346cb", "id": "2384849494", "rev": "45454554", "new_email" : "new@new.com", "old_email" : "old@old.com"}' http://veeryapiperl.soupmode.com/api/users

Three "doc" types. If this was SQL, these would be three separate tables.
