Management of Pictures adds support of the following actions:
POST /api/pictures
{
"extension": "<extension of image>",
"content": "<base 64 encoded image here>"
}
Supported extensions include:
| Extension |
|---|
| jpg |
| png |
| svg |
Querying pictures like any other collection:
GET /api/pictures?expand=resources
{
"name": "pictures",
"count": 5,
"subcount": 5,
"resources": [
{
"href": "http://localhost:3000/api/pictures/1",
"id": "1",
"image_href" : "http://localhost:3000/pictures/1.jpg",
"extension" : "jpg"
},
...
{
"href": "http://localhost:3000/api/pictures/4",
"id": "4",
"image_href" : "http://localhost:3000/pictures/4.png",
"extension" : "png",
"resource_id": "1",
"resource_type": "ServiceTemplate"
},
{
"href": "http://localhost:3000/api/pictures/5",
"id": "5",
"image_href" : "http://localhost:3000/pictures/5.jpg",
"extension" : "jpg"
}
],
"actions": [
{
"name": "create",
"method": "post",
"href": "http://localhost:3000/api/pictures"
}
]
}
This query does not return the pictures themselves, simply metadata about the pictures.
Actually fetching the particular picture is done by getting the image by its image_href.
GET /api/pictures/4
{
"href": "http://localhost:3000/api/pictures/4",
"id": "4",
"resource_id": "1",
"resource_type": "ServiceTemplate",
"image_href": "http://localhost:3000/pictures/4.jpg"
}
In which case the image can simply be downloaded with a GET:
GET http://localhost:3000/pictures/4.jpg
For fetching information about pictures pertaining to services, see the section Querying Pictures for details.
