A web based Open API for v2
🕑 Added 2025-11-22 12:44:15 +0000 UTCHey guys, I've been working on a Web API for pornspective.v2 to unlock features from the product through an open interface. I've got the basics of this working with an initial set of methods for checking the health and status of the API and then providing search features that existing in the application.
I've still got to wire it into the local settings so that it can be enabled, I'm also looking at how to add optional authentication to ensure that its protected to only those with a username and password.
I'm thinking in the initial release I'll include status, search and tag functionality. The tag functionality will allow retrieval of tags, but also I'd like to explore adding tags. The API will be fully documented using Swagger and OpenAPI standards, so you'll have no problem trying it out before even writing a line of code!
Obviously an API is really for those that want to code/script something such alongside pornspective, so it might only be a few of you that would benefit from this. But please comment below and let me know if you'd like to get involved with a beta release.
The types of things you could probably use it for: -
Creating your own automation pipeline for tags between media centres.
Searching pornspective from an external source, like a media centre. This could be a python plugin in Kodi for example.
Creating a basic web based front-end to display content from pornspective.
Creating a mobile app even.
And probably lots more I've not thought of!
So please let me know if this is of interest and we'll take it from there and I'll get you involved in the beta version.

That sounds amazing! I am just starting out with APIs and writing some simple ones. I am not sure how much help I would be but I'm happy to Beta for you. Thank you for all the work you put into this project. Its just amazing!
