DESCRIPTION

      # From a Catmandu Fix
      lookup_in_store(
        book_id,
        REST,
        base_url: https://www.example.org/api/v1/books,
        query_string: /page/1
      )

    Uses a RESTful API as a Catmandu::Store
    <http://librecat.org/Catmandu/#stores>.

    The module allows you to use a RESTful API that uses JSON as data
    format and uses the URL format [base_url]/[id][query_string] as a Store
    for Catmandu.

    Retrieving (GET), adding (POST), updating (PUT) and deleting (DELETE)
    single items is supported. Data must be provided as JSON by the API,
    and the API must accept JSON for PUT/POST requests. The URL must be of
    the format [base_url]/[id][query_string], where the id is absent for
    POST requests.

PARAMETERS

    You must provide the base_url parameter.

    base_url

      base url of the API endpoint (the entire url before the ID) (e.g.
      https://www.example.org/api/v1/books).

    query_string

      an optional query string that comes behind the ID (e.g. /page/1 where
      the complete URL is https://www.example.org/api/v1/books/1/page/1).
