User Information

####Description: User Information Service

Allows storage and retrieval of user information.

Method: GET

URL: http://pmapi/user

Output: Standard HTTP status codes, and response data JSON dictionary of stored information from the current user. If no user data is currently stored, this will return a 200 status code with an empty dictionary.

Method: GET

URL: _http://pmapi/user/_**data-element**

Output: Standard HTTP status codes, and response data corresponding to data-element of stored information from the current user.

If data-element is a complex object (array or dictionary) then response data will be JSON dictionary of the complex object. If data-element is a simple value-type object, then response data will be the value as a string.

If data-element is not found in the user data dictionary then the response will be a 404 status code.

Examples:

Given a user object: { "user" : "Joe Smith", "isauthenticated" : true, "userRoles" : [100, 200, 300, 500] }

Request-> http://pmapi/user/name
Response-> 200 status code, and http body containing string "Joe Smith"

• Request-> http://pmapi/user/isauthenticated Response-> 200 status code, and http body containing string "true"
• Request-> http://pmapi/user/userRoles Response-> 200 status code, and http body containing [100, 200, 300, 500] as JSON object
• Request-> http://pmapi/user/nonExistantElement Response-> 404 status code

Request-> http://pmapi/user
  POST data: { "user" : "Joe Smith", "isauthenticated" : true, "userRoles" : [100, 200, 300, 500] }

The JSON object would be deserialized as stored as a dictionary for future retrieval. Any existing dictionary currently stored is replaced.
