API

The Emptees API is available for non-commercial use by outside developers. The current documentation only covers the "read only" aspects of the API, with plans to cover adding, editing, and deleting in the future.

What can I do with the API?

We've provided you with this API so that you can build cool stuff with the content on Emptees. This could be anything from a dashboard widget showing the Tee of the Day, a MySpace or Facebook application, or showing off your tee portfolio on your personal website or blog. I'm sure you can think of much cooler things too.

How does it work?

You can retrieve information about tees, people, and posts by hitting their URL and appending the desired format to the end. This works for most URLs on the site, with the exception of pages like the home page, policy pages, etc.

For example, to get the list of tees in JSON format, you would use the URL: http://emptees.com/tees.js
