This led us to developing the concept of an API which would enable a master database to be queried and updated by various components. In developing an API-central infrastructure, we were also looking down th line towards supporting client-developed applications and native applications for various platforms (iOS, Android, Windows, OS X). -<p style="text-align:center">[](/assets/images/forest_interaction_diagram.png)</p> +<p style="text-align:center"> + <a href="/assets/images/forest_interaction_diagram.png"> + <img src="/assets/images/forest_interaction_diagram.png" alt="Forest Interaction Diagram"> + </a> +</p> Our first task was to develop a data format and database schema. As we intended to use [actionhero](http://actionherojs.com) for the API server, we created a [schema for MongoDB](https://github.com/printerSystemCSI210/api-server/blob/master/initializers/_project.js) and a base [set of API commands](https://github.com/printerSystemCSI210/api-server/tree/master/actions) we would need to implement in order to get a framework of the service up and running. We [deployed this on Heroku](https://forest-api.herokuapp.com). |
