orienteering.api

API server for orienteering competitions. The current implementation is focussed on single races and not suited for relays, team orienteering and other special forms of orienteering. The result data is retrieved from o-l.ch (SOLV - swiss orienteering) and so currently only data from that backend is available.

The web server is based on expressjs.

Getting started

You have to install nodejs (http://nodejs.org/) and then you can simply type

node index.js

This starts a simple webserver that provides the following routes (for complete reference check index.js):

/api/events
