/items/{barcode} endpoint for SpineOMatic spine labeler

Submit a GET request to the http://localhost/items/{barcode} using the barcode of a known item in your FOLIO tenant. This will return XML ready to be consumed by SpineOMatic.

Review the SpineOMatic wiki for installation and settings documentation. More specific details on configuring SpineOMatic to use this FOLIO API middleware will be provided here in the near future.

You can request the original, unmodified JSON from FOLIO using the format parameter:

http://localhost/items/{barcode}?format=json

Refer to the generated API documentation for the /items endpoint for all available parameters
