This project started a couple of weeks ago when I was playing with some concepts. I found it hard to query information from the PoH protocol easily. Talking with other devs I saw this was a shared frustration.
Examples:
Today it only has a few endpoints, but more are in the works. Curious to hear what other devs would like to see.
There is also an instance for the Kovan Testnet registry: https://api-kovan.poh.dev
GraphQL. 
But I could build that using your REST API as a backend datasource.
Update:
vanity_id (docs)vanity_id is a sequential ID assigned to every profile when they are accepted into the registry (moving to REGISTERED status). So not all profiles will have a vanity ID. Once assigned a vanity ID is permanent, it won’t be removed or changed, regardless of the profiles status.
The intention is a number to brag about, for example I am #2,973 in the registry.
I’d like to add a couple lines into the profiles/{eth_address} controller to check to see if the parameter looks like an ENS name before doing the lookup. Would be a nice touch.
Great idea! ENS support would fit perfectly (and play into the future HNS plans).
Can you create a PR to support this? If not can you create an issue on the repo so I can remember it in the near future?
Hello! I stumbled across this, liked it a lot, and developed a Python wrapper library to use this API easily from Python.
Here is the link to its PyPI page: pypoh · PyPI
You can install it with pip install pypoh
Here is the Github repo: https://github.com/jamesluc007/pypoh
I’m using this library to develop a Data Analysis NFT project, and it’s been useful so far. I hope it can be useful to more people as well.
