Check OpenHeart count for this page
The Open Heart protocol lets an anonymous user sends an emoji reaction to a URL.
Set up an endpoint to receive an Open Heart POST request like this one:
curl -d '🥨' -X POST '<https://api.oh.dddddddddzzzz.org/github.com/dddddddddzzzz/OpenHeart>'
A Open Heart message should contain of a single emoji sequence. However, the emoji sequence may be followed by arbitrary data which the server is expected to ignore.
This allows HTML <form>s to post reactions using the Open Heart protocol through an empty input. In this case, the payload will be 🥨=.
Optionally, a GET request to the same URL may respond with the emoji reaction counts.
curl '<https://api.oh.dddddddddzzzz.org/github.com/dddddddddzzzz/OpenHeart>'
The response should be a JSON object mapping Emoji (as Strings) to their count (as Numbers):
{"❤️": 14,"🫀": 12,"🥨": 22}
If reaction counts are write-only, the server should respond with a 403 or a 404.
