Phabricator's developer API is called "Conduit". We can implement API support for Locations so users can write scripts to interact with locations programmatically.

• Create a new class to define locations.location.search. You can follow PasteSearchConduitAPIMethod as an example.
• Create a new class to define locations.location.edit. You can follow PasteEditConduitAPIMethod as an example.
• Run arc liberate.
• Visit /conduit/ and you should see your new API methods.
• Call your API methods using cURL or arc call-conduit to make sure they work (you can include CLI output in your test plan).

To improve locations.location.search so it returns more information:

• Have LocationsLocation implement PhabricatorConduitResultInterface. You can follow ManiphestTask as an example.
• Have it return the location name and any additional fields which exist by now.
• Call the method and make sure it returns names.
