**Search in API** is a tool helping to debug import scripts or export APIs. It allows you to search for a specific tag
and value among multiple pages of an XML API endpoint.

* Free software: MIT license
* Documentation: https://search-in-api.readthedocs.io.


Use Case Example
--------

Let's say, you have a XML API that provides a playlist of songs. It's a looooong paginated list and there is no search
implemented. You have an urge to find that particular song with a title having a word "Journey" and to check who
is playing it. If the songs are listed chronologically by the date added, you would need to search from page to page
until you finally get it. This tool does exactly that for you. There you can enter the URL of the first page of XML API,
enter the tag "title", and the value "Journey", and a few moments later it will show you the page URLs of the API that
contain songs with the word "Journey" in it.

Features
--------

* Search for pages with specific occurrences of tag and value in multi-page XML API endpoint.
* Command-line and graphical user interface.


Wishlist
--------

* Search for pages with specific occurrences of key and value in multi-page JSON API endpoint.
