Locomotive API

[alexsanford]

The Locomotive API is now much more usable. You can perform all the CRUD actions on almost any resource in the system, and there are some conveniences built in as well. I haven't written any docs yet, but the cucumber features do a pretty good job of outlining all the functionality. I'm hoping to write a guide for the Locomotive doc site eventually.

Here's a quick example of the usage. First get an authentication token:

% curl -d 'email=author@example.com&password=mypassword' http://test.vcap.me:3000/locomotive/api/tokens.json
=> {"token":"uks6zqFgQQdhmWYfZxpf"}

Then simply use that token to access a resource:

curl http://test.vcap.me:3000/locomotive/api/pages.json?auth_token=uks6zqFgQQdhmWYfZxpf

Hi Alex!

I have been trying to run off of this branch but I am having some trouble getting the right gems in place. Do you have any ideas?

Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem "carrierwave-mongoid":
In Gemfile:
locomotive_cms (>= 0) ruby depends on
carrierwave-mongoid (~> 0.1.3) ruby

locomotive_cms (>= 0) ruby depends on
  carrierwave-mongoid (0.2.1)

Thanks,
Will

Seems that this is a more general RC7 problem. I may try to merge your branch up to RC12.

I did that merge and fixed a few issues. I then started implementing some
new API stuff and didn't push up those fixes. I'll do that now.
