FreshPorts contains more than just ports. It contains all commits to the =
FreeBSD repository.

This is all stored in a database. It can be queried. We just need an =
API.

The goal is to start gradually, based on the ideas started at =
https://duck.co/ideas/idea/936/grab-bsd-port-summary-from-freshports =
<https://duck.co/ideas/idea/936/grab-bsd-port-summary-from-freshports>;
and later at https://github.com/FreshPorts/freshports/issues/4 =
<https://github.com/FreshPorts/freshports/issues/4>;

I did start using https://github.com/marcj/php-rest-service =
<https://github.com/marcj/php-rest-service>; (I didn't get to the=20
point of having methods invoked), I'm looking for others to help get =
this started.

The goal is a PHP-based API. Why? Existing PHP code for database access.
