This page is designed to give you a quickstart on getting to know the system and how to work with it simply by following a step-by-step guide.

outline	true

Prerequisites

There is not a lot that you need to start these first steps, but it includes a computer and some free time!

Additionally some basic knowledge about terminal usage within Linux (Ubuntu) is assumed. You can find some good starter information on the official Ubuntu documentation, although you should be able to copy all the commands from this tuturial and learn on the go!

Installation

See the installation page for instructions on how to install the system and get it running.

Using the API

Prerequisites

Before you ask, API stands for Application Programming Interface, it describes how to use a system and what it can do, for us this is the place to start as it quickly shows you the power of the system!

To use the API we are going to use a tool called Postman, it is a well-established chrome extension that makes using a REST API a breeze.

If you are using chrome you can find Postman here, if you do not use chrome I suggest you install chrome first

Steps to take

Run the OMS system as instructed in the installation guide
Fire up postman
Check to see if the system is running and ready to be used
1. Enter the URL to be `localhost`
2. Set the method to GET (left of the URL)
3. Hit Send!
Check if the response matches screenshot 1 on the left
1. Above the response are buttons: (pretty|raw|preview)
  1. These change the way the response is viewed
2. Press preview
3. It should look a little bit better now!
Log in as a User
1. Change the method to POST
2. Change the URL to `localhost/api/login`
3. Right below the the URL bar are buttons: (authorization|headers|body|pre-request scripts|tests)
  1. These are tabs to enter additional request settings.
  2. Note that the response has similar buttons, yet these are for the response!
4. Click the body button (of the request)
  1. Enter 2 new keys
    1. key='username', value='admin@aegee.org'
    2. key='password', value='1234'
5. Hit send!
6. Verify the response looks similar to response 1
See all the Users
1. Open a new tab within Postman
  1. I like to keep one tab open to quickly login
2. Set the method to GET
3. Set the URL to `localhost/api/users`
4. Open the request Header tab
  1. Enter a new key
    1. key='X-Auth-Token', value='yourlogintoken'
5. Hit send!
  1. You should get a forbidden message
6. Enter the correct login token
  1. Go back to your login request
  2. Copy the value with the key "data"
    1. In the example response this is `da78dbb0-6ff4-11e7-bb7e-476b0d476473`
  3. Paste it in the value for the X-Auth-Token
7. Hit Send again!
8. Check if the response equals response 2
