API2Cart Ada SDK for eCommerce Data Integration

Overview

The API2Cart Ada SDK allows you to seamlessly integrate Ada-based solutions with major eCommerce platforms such as Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, PrestaShop, and more. By unifying storefront interactions under one API, this SDK helps you streamline order processing, product management, and real-time data analysis, all while benefiting from the robustness and reliability of the Ada programming language.

Ada is known for strong typing, safe concurrency, and error prevention features—making it particularly well-suited for mission-critical systems. Combined with the API2Cart hub of eCommerce platforms, you can build high-integrity applications that handle diverse online stores with minimal overhead.

Key Benefits

• Unified API Access: Interact with multiple platforms from one endpoint.
• Ada’s Reliability: Reduce bugs and crashes with a high-integrity language.
• Scalability & Security: Add or remove stores without rewriting core logic.
• Easy Maintenance: Centralize updates, expansions, and store management in Ada.

Quick Start

Below is a simplified example using GNATCOLL libraries to fetch the “status” endpoint through the API2Cart Ada SDK. Replace placeholders with your real keys and run the program to confirm proper connectivity. In a production environment, you may encapsulate these calls in your own Ada packages for better structure and testing.

with Ada.Text_IO; use Ada.Text_IO;
with GNATCOLL.HTTP;
with GNATCOLL.JSON;

procedure API2Cart_Ada_SDK_Example is
   API2CART_Key   : constant String := "YOUR_API2CART_KEY";
   API2CART_Base  : constant String := "https://api.api2cart.com/v1.0";

   -- Create an HTTP client (part of GNATCOLL)
   HTTP_Client    : GNATCOLL.HTTP.Client := GNATCOLL.HTTP.Create_Client;
   Response_Body  : String;
   Status_Code    : GNATCOLL.HTTP.Response_Code;
begin
   -- Build the status endpoint URL
   declare
      Status_URL : constant String := API2CART_Base
                                      & "/status?api_key="
                                      & API2CART_Key;
   begin
      -- Perform the GET request
      Response_Body := HTTP_Client.Get (Status_URL, Status_Code);
      Put_Line ("HTTP Status Code: " & Status_Code'Image);
      Put_Line ("Raw JSON: " & Response_Body);

      -- If successful, parse JSON for further processing
      if Status_Code = 200 then
         declare
            Parsed_Json : GNATCOLL.JSON.JSON_Value := GNATCOLL.JSON.Parse (Response_Body);
         begin
            Put_Line ("Parsed JSON:");
            Put_Line (GNATCOLL.JSON.To_String (Parsed_Json));
         end;
      end if;
   end;
end API2Cart_Ada_SDK_Example;

The code demonstrates the essential flow: building the request, calling the endpoint, and parsing the JSON. You can extend this to access any of API2Cart’s numerous methods—orders, products, carts, etc.—directly from your Ada application.
