A PHP-based API using the Ergast Formula One MySQL database
Obtain a MySQL database image from: http://ergast.com/mrd/db/
Restore the database and set the username and password for a user with read-only privileges in f1dbro.inc
Add a rewrite rule to the .htaccess file in the root directory of the server e.g.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^api/(.*) /php/api/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
This example assumes the API code is installed in /php/api and the desired location of the API is /api
