USA Web Service

Development Server

Requests are RESTful URL calls combined with XML sent as raw Standard Input (non-urlencoded POST Requests). To reach the Web Service, use this URL:

http://signals.thewhiteroom.com/cgi-bin/ws

The URL must be combined with a command such as login, shipping, tax, or checkout. So a full request will look like one of these:

• http://signals.thewhiteroom.com/cgi-bin/ws/login
• http://signals.thewhiteroom.com/cgi-bin/ws/shipping
• http://signals.thewhiteroom.com/cgi-bin/ws/tax
• http://signals.thewhiteroom.com/cgi-bin/ws/checkout

User Login

Allow access to membership database so mobile app can authenticate existing accounts. Calls will be made directly to MySQL database to authenticate user login. Response will be name, address, phone, etc of customer table.

Here is an example of how to make this call:

• RESTful Request

Shipping Info

Allow access to Hazel's shipping cost calculator (a custom Hazel template). Web service will allow for remotely calling Hazel with given products and address information with filtered response of shipping options and costs. This is specific to the customer. Currently, only the products themselves are used in the calculation (not the address).

Tax Calculator

Only the state is used to calculate tax (on the store used on the devel site). We may need to expand this in a later revision. Other options can be sent, but only <State> is read from the Tax Request.

Checkout

The order will travel the "normal" process once submitted to Hazel in this way. All emails will be sent, and order information added to the database. The only difference will be the custom response (in XML) back mobile client.
