Pet Management

The Pet endpoints allow you to manage pets in the store. You can create, update, find, and delete pets. Each pet has a unique ID, a name, a status, and can be associated with a category and tags.

Key Concepts

• Pet Status — Each pet has a status: available, pending, or sold. Use the findByStatus endpoint to filter pets.
• Image Upload — You can upload images for a pet using the uploadImage endpoint. This supports multipart form data.
• Tags & Categories — Pets can be organized using tags and categories for better filtering and browsing.

Getting started

To add a new pet, send a POST to /pet with the pet's details. You'll get back the pet object with its generated ID.

{
  "name": "Rex",
  "status": "available",
  "category": { "id": 1, "name": "Dogs" },
  "photoUrls": ["https://example.com/rex.jpg"]
}

Tip: Use findByStatus to search for all available pets before adding duplicates.
