[GSoC 2021] OpenWISP REST API

[Manish Shah]

Greetings Everyone,

In the past few months, I along with my mentors worked on the project OpenWISP REST API  in building the  RESTful API's for some of the major modules(openwisp-controller, openwisp-network-topology, & openwisp-users) of OpenWISP as a part of the Google Summer of Code 2021 programme.

Here are some of the important features of the endpoints:-
- All the endpoints respects multi-tenancy.
- Properly paginated.
- Permissions & Authentication taken into effect.
- Documentation. (both in module's repo and DRF-Yasg)
- Tested manually and included unit tests.

Here is the final project report: OpenWISP REST API: GSoC’21 Project Report where I have highlighted the features of the endpoints and shared my experiences and challenges during this period. Please give it a read. It would also be great if more people use these features and come up with issues or feature requests in order to improve these endpoints further.

Kind Regards,
Manish
