ofapi

ofapi is an API server that provides RESTful web APIs to enhance OpenFusion server instances.

ofapi groups available APIs into modules. Each module has a corresponding table in the config file (config.toml) and can be deactivated by commenting out the table (with the exception of the core and game modules, which are required).

Some modules are "secure", meaning their APIs must be accessed by the TLS port bound to by the application. TLS can be applied at the application level by compiling with the tls feature or by a proxy server such as nginx. Please verify that secure APIs are only accessible through TLS before deploying ofapi on a publicly accessible network.

ofapi requires an OpenFusion sqlite database of version 6 or higher.

Developing

Edit config.toml to your liking and then

cargo run

Production

cargo build --release
./target/release/ofapi

*Auth by refresh token instead of session token

Technical documentation on each API is WIP and will be on the GitHub wiki.

Static Resources

Static files and directories can be easily served by mapping them to an endpoint in the statics.csv file. These are accessible from both HTTP and HTTPS. Some common mappings are included as defaults.

Authentication

ofapi uses capability-based JSON Web Tokens ("jwt") for authentication. A secret key is generated on first startup (see the config for the auth module) and is used for token signing. All tokens can be invalidated by deleting and regenerating the secret file. Do not share this file with anyone.

Refresh Tokens

Refresh tokens are used to generate new session tokens. They should be long-lived and cached by clients, and are invalidated upon password changes. Refresh tokens have a single capability: acquiring a session token.

Session Tokens

Session tokens are multi-capable and can access most authed module APIs, with the exception of those requiring extra capabilities (such as the moderation APIs). They should be very short-lived and reacquired using a refresh token.

Service Tokens

Service tokens are special tokens that are manually created using the gen_token binary in the Cargo project. The lifespan and capabilities of service tokens are completely customizable and are meant to be used by external services such as Discord bots.

Generation

You can run gen_token with Cargo like so:

cargo run --bin=gen_token

An interactive prompt will guide you through the token creation process.
