Description

This plugin manages volunteer networks. More specifically, the contributions of these volunteers have configured your campaigns here.

It lets you create “campaigns” in which you need to collect data from different people who want to contribute to your cause. For each campaign you can define a specific data model (using data types that we have implemented, such as geo, images, dictionaries, text, numbers, dates, …) and can receive contributions of structured data.

The plugin exposes a RESTful API in yourdomain.tld/cindaAPI/ that can be consumed by any client. We have built one for Android (especially nice;-)), but if you want you can program another.

  • GET /cindaAPI/opendata/contributions/

  • before any POST you need to get a temporary token (nonce), here is the way you can get it:
    • Register: /cindaAPI/nonce/volunteer_register/?token=[token]
    • update endpoint: /cindaAPI/nonce/volunteer_update_endpoint/?token=[token]
    • Subscribe: /cindaAPI/nonce/campaign_suscribe/?token=[token]
    • Unsubscribe: /cindaAPI/nonce/campaign_unsuscribe/?token=[token]
    • Send contribution: /cindaAPI/nonce/campaign_sendData/?token=[token]
    • Send tracking: /cindaAPI/nonce/tracking_send/?token=[token]

The token especified is obtained on the (POST /cindaAPI/volunteer/register/) and before you must call /cindaAPI/nonce/volunteer_register, so you have to generate your own unique “first token” for this call (ex. = device UUID)

Almost the GET operations have a (optional) token. It is not compulsory, but necessary to consult own data.
