Does it give restful endpoints?

ciur commented

No. Or to be exact just couple of them (very very limited).
https://docs.papermerge.io/2.0.0/User%27s%20Manual/rest_api.html
The full documentation for that version is:

https://docs.papermerge.io/2.0.0/index.html

Papermerge 2.1.x is almost a complete rewrite of 2.0.x. In other words, they are entirely different applications. They just look same, are called same and sort of versioning implies as 2.1. is continuation of 2.0... which is not true. As I mentioned before, 2.1 is a complete rewrite of 2.0.

What is the best way to run this locally i dont see any manage.py?

ciur commented

In branch stable/2.0.x papermerge-core is a plain django app (i.e. no manage.py).
The django project itself (manage.py file plus base urls.py, wsgi.py file etc) are in branch stable/2.0.x of the ciur/papermerge repository.
here https://github.com/ciur/papermerge/tree/stable/2.0.x.
So, for that branch you need to use both repositories. This is because initially project was hosted in ciur/papermerge repo and migrated to this repository only later.

I would discourage you to develop on 2.0.x unless you plan to fork it and maintain that part only.
2.0.x is basically was basically a proof a concept. All feature in that branch (automates + metadata) will be added in "proper way" in later versions.
