With filtering:

http://api.edmaterializer.com/api/v4/stars/?system=HIP%2098020

Currently stars are imported from the "Monster" Distant Worlds spreadsheet's Systems page using an assumption that the primary star is "" for single star systems or "A" for multi-star systems.

Only one record is kept per star, the record is shared by commanders. The last commander to update is the "updater" field. If it's imported from the monster spread sheet it'll be "DW Spreadsheet"

Delete requests will only be accepted when received from the original creator.

Filters

Add filters on the GET "index" round as querystring params in the url:

(eg http://example.com/things/?filter1=a&filter2=b)

  • page
  • system
  • star
  • updater
  • creator
  • updated_before
  • updated_after

Sorting

Use sort (column name) and direction (asc or desc). Eg:

?sort=created_at&direction=desc

Notes / Updates

  • Application users (EDDiscovery) must submit a "user" root level param so we can descern if the request is legal for updates or deletes.
  • System name changes (other than case changes) are not supported. To change a system name apply the change to the the new parent system resource.
