Software architecture

• API Web server (dPT_server):

  • GET /projects/ -> returns projects list
  • GET /projects/:id -> returns project :id
  • PUT /projects/:id -> edits project :id
  • POST /projects/:id -> saves a new project called :id

• Database made of 5 tables

  • users(Laravel-implemented)
  • devices
  • projects
  • interfaces
  • connections

Issues

• Define API -> done
• Use a canvas HTML5 and save it on server -> to try SVG conversion
