API endpoints for color data

[sirkitree]

The basic idea here is that we need an API that can read and write data at various URLs.

From Neos we will first detect and write color values to the API

• write color data: /put/color

Then we need a place where the Chicago Quantum team can read this data.

• read color data: /read/color

This will then go to the quantum annealer to correlate the color values with standard lyrics and send a response back to the API.

• write quantum response: /put/quantum

And then send this response back to Neos

• read GPT-3 response: /read/gpt-3

One thing we'll need is a data store, probably just use mongodb...

I have this setup to run on heroku which does not support mongodb anymore apparently. Looks like Redis is though https://devcenter.heroku.com/categories/heroku-redis

@LucasRo7 mentioned that we'd like this to be a websocket connection from Neos. I think he's right so I'll look into what that takes on the Node.js side

[LucasRo7]

I set up an endpoint /ws/neos to send/receive messages from Neos, for now I just store the color on a variable and respond /read/color with it

Nice! Thank you!

@LucasRo7 are you familiar with Redis at all? Do you think that is something you could get setup for our API to utilize for storage?
