RikiTrakiWS

This repository contains the code for the web services supporting RikiTraki, a outdoor activities log web application: RikiTraki.com. The public Web Services and database are hosted in Google Cloud Platform. The data is maintained on a MongoDB database to which this project provides a CRUD interface using REST web services.

Self Hosting

If you want to host your own Web Services layer:

  • npm install

  • Install and run MongoDB

  • Unzip rikitraki_dump.zip (located in emptydb directory of this repo) in some working directory

  • Run mongorestore dump (MongoDB must be up and running) which will create the rikitraki database with the required collections and index definitions

  • Run node rikitrakiws.js, ensuring that the following environment variables are set prior:

  • MONGODB_DB_URL, for example, export MONGODB_DB_URL=mongodb://localhost:27017/rikitraki

  • MAILGUN_API_KEY, for example, MAILGUN_API_KEY=key-thisismymailgunapikey -- this is required to be able to add users that can upload tracks to the database

  • JWT_SECRET, the service needs to sign authentication tokens; this should be a long random password, for example export JWT_SECRET=thisisaverylongrandompasswordforsigningjwttokens

  • The script start.sh is an example of a start script that grabs secrets from the Google Cloud Platform metadata storage and sets the environment variable above

  • Make sure your rikitraki client is configured to point to your running web service (file js/config.js, getApiBaseUrl entry); for example: http://localhost:3000/api

  • Create a new user using the rikitraki application and start adding tracks

Note: the above has been tested with MongoDB v3.6.3 and node v12.10.0

API:

URL Format: {service-url}/api/{version}/{resource}, e.g., : https://www.rikitraki.com/api/v1/tracks/'

All results in JSON format except images and GPX files.

SSL is required on all authenticated/authorized calls.
