Creating custom ODOO shipping carrier?

Are there any guides, documentations, tutorials, examples, ... anything about writing custom shipping carriers for Odoo.
I checked their store and most of the bigger ones (DHL, UPS, etc.) are being sold so there is nothing really to use to check "how they did it".
I have a carrier that I need to integrate and they have an API that I can use.
What is the right approach?

Is there an AliExpress API that can submit dropship orders instead of using Oberlo?

Currently I am using the Shopify app Oberlo with it's chrome extension to manually send over dropship orders one by one.
This works find but I have between 100 to 1000 orders daily during testing.
Can anybody recommend a way to automate this using either an API directly from AliExpress (which the affiliate API is all I have been able to find) or possibly a laravel wrapper integrated with Shopify that has the ability to post dropship orders automatically.
Much appreciated!
I've been looking for similar documentation on AliExpress and found the dropshipping subsection of their API:
Get Product Info: https://developers.aliexpress.com/en/doc.htm?docId=35321&docType=2
Place an Order: https://developers.aliexpress.com/en/doc.htm?docId=35446&docType=2
Get Tracking info from a previous order: https://developers.aliexpress.com/en/doc.htm?docId=40656&docType=2
Other less-common dropshipping APIs are available from the sidebar navigation of any of these.
It also appears that you have to register as a seller (even though you're just buying) to get access to these dropshipping API.
You'll have to build a shopify app that can receive your orders and turn around to place them on AliExpress. I haven't seen a tool that can place orders automatically without coding.

How can I get to know that specific product is managed by Cdiscount (FBC) using Marketplace API of Cdiscount?

I'm using Marketplace API. I have all products and its offer. I just want to identify that which offers are managed by FBC. I have read all documentation of cdiscount API but did not find any way from that we can identify that specific offer is managed by Cdiscount or not.
Let me explain you via example, I'm currently working on integration stuff. Now, Our system is partially integrated with cdiscount. In which we have all ours products, offers, sales and etc.
Now, I have a case that I want to update the stock of specific offer by calling API (SubmitOfferPackage). As I know that I can not update the inventory of that product which is handled or managed by Cdiscount. So, I want to update inventory of all product that was managed/handled by me.
I'm using GetOfferListPaginated API to get all offers. There is no parameter in response message to identify that specific offer is managed by Cdiscount or not.
Any help would be much appreciated

What types of integrations are offered by BlueSnap?

I hear a lot about BlueSnap as a potential Payment Gateway for merchants like me, does anyone know what kind of account integrations the offer?
You can see the integration options in this page, the main questions you should ask yourself are whether you'll need to work with a product catlog or not - and whether you have the resources to develop with the API solutions.
If you're already using shopping carts, you can integrate Magento, PrestaShop or WooCommerce with BlueSnap.

Create custom shipping method in Bigcommerce

I want to add my custom shipping method using Bigcommerce API. I don't want to use any of the pre-existing methods such as flat rate, free shipping, FedEx, Australia post etc.
I have gone through their API, especially shipping resources, but it doesn't seem any methods are available to add our own shipping method.
Shipping resource API documentation
https://developer.bigcommerce.com/api/stores/v2/shipping/methods#get-shipping-method
I don't even know do we need special permission fro Bigcommerce guys to add shipping method.
Please help if anybody has developed or trying to develop similar thing.
Thanks.
I need to integrate third party shipping calculator to bigcommerce site. First thing is that bigcommerce is a hosted solution which means that we don't have direct access to their code via ftp. So we can't modify the code to add our shipping calculator.
2nd thing is that they do not allow any unsupported thirdy party gateways or softwares.
Read this
https://support.bigcommerce.com/?page=support_policy
They say that:
Unsupported Gateways and Third Party Software
We are not able to support any third party gateways or third party software we do not integrate with. We are unable to provide any "How to use", modify or extend the use of any third party software outside of any documentation we've provided.
Also note that bigcommerce API is not for this purpose. It comes in use when someone wants to pull data from bigcommerce shop via its api. You are looking at this in reverse direction which is wrong.
