Octopart

Open afx303 opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Octorpart only works if APP_DEBUG=DEBUG is in the .env file.

Octopart was bought by Altium and does not have a free limited plan anymore.

This could be replaced with a Mouser or Digikey API. Their APIs also allow access to orders, that would make updating the inventory a lot faster.

Any closer info about it ?

  • Octopart->Altium-> no free
  • Mouser API
  • DigiKey API

https://eu.mouser.com/api-hub/ https://developer.digikey.com I think those do not have any restriction on the number of queries.

Octopart API is part of Nexar API -> Looking for the Octopart API? and Limas uses it

OctoPartService::OCTOPART_ENDPOINT = 'https://api.nexar.com/graphql/'
OctoPartService::NEXAR_AUTHORITY = 'https://identity.nexar.com/'

Nexar still has a free limited plan (Evaluation) -> Compare API Plans

but i'll take a look at the Mouser and DigiKey APIs

Nexar still has a free limited plan (Evaluation) -> Compare API Plans

I got this from nexar support

The Evaluation (trial) app recently changed to 1,000-lifetime calls for companies. Once the 1,000 queries are exhausted, it will not reset monthly.
