# Dummy API
## What it is and what is it good for?
This simple webservice have a few methods that helps me play around when i want to create or test the process of
making post and get requests.
There is no real database connection, authentication or any of that fancy stuff.
## Methods
### Ping
```
[GET, POST] https://raccoon-ninja-dummy-api.herokuapp.com/api/v1/ping
```
This method will just return the string "Ping? Pong!"
### Echo
```
[POST] https://raccoon-ninja-dummy-api.herokuapp.com/api/v1/echo
```
As the name suggests, this method will return anything passed to it. You post "bacon" and echo will return "bacon".
Please, don't try anything funny. I just decode requests.data and return it.
### Echo Args
```
[POST] https://raccoon-ninja-dummy-api.herokuapp.com/api/v1/echoargs
```
As the name suggests, this method will return anything passed to it via querystring.
### Hash me
```
[GET, POST] https://raccoon-ninja-dummy-api.herokuapp.com/api/v1/hashme
```
Will return a random SHA256 hash.
### Users
```
[GET] https://raccoon-ninja-dummy-api.herokuapp.com/api/v1/users
[GET] https://raccoon-ninja-dummy-api.herokuapp.com/api/v1/users?&format=json
[GET] https://raccoon-ninja-dummy-api.herokuapp.com/api/v1/users?&format=xml
```
This method will return a list of users from my dummy database. The default return format is JSON, but you can use the
query argument "format" to specify if you want a XML instead.
