Symbol Extraction via the API

Extracting symbols via the API is a better way to handle extraction if you need to consistently extract the same functionality over and over again.

To begin, we recommend creating a JSON file containing the elements you want to extract. This should look like the following:

Copy// extraction.json
[
    {
        "filePath": "src/app.py",
        "symbols": [
            "app",
            "initdb",
            "..."
        ]
    },
    { ... }
]

Then, this body can be sent to the API via a POST request, either from the command-line or from a tool like Postman.

More details on the API can be seen via the API reference.
