API calls

Connecting to ARgorithmServer

The APIClient class has to be created whose functions will be called by button manager
functions that will be required:

• connect : to connect to server and check if auth is required
• create : to create user account
• authenticate : to authenticate user credentials and store JWT token
• list : gets list of argorithms from connected server
• run : gets states from server after execution

A very good repo i found as reference

So regarding the web API

I am making a class called APIclient which will have methods you will call like how in the above link the developer calls the routine. you have to catch the callback which will have the data you will need. I'll make classes for Responses which will make it easier for you to take data from them
something like this

    void onclick()
    {
        // send a get request
        StartCoroutine(APIClient.connect(ip_addr, (r) => OnRequestComplete(r)));
    }

    void OnRequestComplete(ConnectionResponse r)
    {
        Debug.Log($"Status: {r.status}");
    }

for connect
It'll return a ConnectionResponse with one member that is status:string.

for create
It'll take input in as a AccountRequest object which will have two members email and password and return a AuthResponse which will have the jwtToken:string and status:string , similarly for login

for list
It'll return a List<ARgorithmResponse> which you can use to generate your list, each ARgorithmResponse will have all the details of ARgorithm, (check in Toolkit or Server)

for run
It'll take a ExecutionRequest as input and give a json file as output which you will forward to the parser

you can either wait a day for me to finish this or you can create your own dummy client to test functions
in case you use dummy functions, Do not push them
