The new version of the CURT API used the GoEngine Boilerplate for being Content-Type agnostic to XML and JSON. Some of the best features are listed below:
- Concurrent MySQL access using Goroutines
- JSON rendering powered by encoding/json
- XML rendering powered by encoding/xml
- MySQL Persistence using mymysql
- ACES Compliant vehicle lookup with product groups
Our API Reference can be found in the Docs folder. Below you can see a summary of our most commonly used APIs.
Note: this application is still in heavy development and all endpoints/objects have the potential to change at any time.
You can view example endpoints for all of the routes in the index_test.go file.

This version if the API is meant to focus on data quantity while maintaining, if not improving performance, by leveraging concurrency. We would like the client to have the ability to make fewer requests to the API Server and be provided with a larger amount of data in the response.
Directions for setting up a local development environment can be found in DEVELOPER.md.
The project uses GoConvey as a testing framework. Follow the install directions from the GitHub repo and make sure you have$GOPATH/bin in your $PATH. Then go to the directory you want to test and run goconvey
Example
~/workspace/gocode/src/github.com/curt-labs/API $ cd models/products/
~/workspace/gocode/src/github.com/curt-labs/API/models/products $ goconvey
Deployment will be done using the master branch on Github. Once a commit is pushed to Github it will route that commit to Drone.io, which will then running CI testing across the project and then deploy new Docker containers to all CURT servers.
