[RFC] API plug-ins

See original GitHub issue

We all know that KiCost is saturating KitSpace gateway to Octopart. In order to reduce its load I would like to introduce alternative mechanisms. The most important distributors provides some kind of API to do stock queries. I personally use Digi-Key so the first API I’m trying is this.

I created a branch called api_ext_plugin (https://github.com/hildogjr/KiCost/tree/api_ext_plugin). In this branch I’m starting to play with the concept.

The first plug-in is here: Digi-Key plug-in

The setup is a little bit complex, but doing it you get 1000 queries a day for free (slow queries by the way).

Any comments? Anybody can help to test it?

Confirming that Digikey, Mouser, Farnell and TME APIs are working in our case. Thanks for your effort!

These APIs are in use since 1.1.8 and looks like they are in use because we got 3 reports for problems using Mouser API for people using languages other than english. I’m closing this.
