The Handshake

Endpoint: https://www.dumpster.software/controller.html.

The first step in any interaction is the Box Tracker handshake. Here you will submit the user name from your static IP Address and the system will respond with a JSON that includes:

Box Tracker Response:: A JSON with the following fields:

Sample Code ( Perl ):

     #!/usr/bin/perl
     use strict; 
     use LWP::UserAgent;
     use Data::Dumper; 
     use JSON;  
     use URI::Encode qw(uri_decode uri_encode ); 

     my $destination; 

     my %fields = ( 
          command   => 'cmdBoxTWebAPIHandShake', 
          username  => "username", 
          password  => "password" );  

     my @args = (); 

     foreach my $key ( keys %fields ) { 
          my $value = uri_encode( $fields{ $key } );  
          push @args, "$key=$value"; 
     }

     my $queryString = join('&', @args );  

     $destination     = "https://www.dumpster.software/controller.html?$queryString"; 

     my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new; 
     my $response =  $ua->request(HTTP::Request->new(GET => $destination));

     my $json = JSON->new(); 
     my $obj = $json->decode( $response->content );  

     print Data::Dumper->Dump([ $obj ]);
