Intro
Learning about Flask and creating nice REST API's
Reasoning
I like bikes, and I like Python.

I wrote it for Python 3.5, but it may work in Python 2.7 YMMV
git clone https://gitlab.com/abvavgjeremy/bikesaledemo.gitcd bikesaledemopip install requirements.txtpython app.py

API Resources:
GET A BIKE AND/OR BIKES
- To return all bikes in memory:
curl -X GET http://127.0.0.1:5000/ - To return a specific bike id (i.e. bike1)
curl -X GET http://127.0.0.1:5000/bike1

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:5000/bike1 -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"bicycle": "Trek 930","year": "1995","color": "blue/green","size": "21 inches","price": 549.99}'
