Hello Universe API

A Spectro Cloud demo application. This is the API server for the Hello Universe app.

drawing

Overview

The Hello Universe app includes an API server that expands the capabilities of the application. The API server requires a Postgres database to store and retrieve data. Use the Hello Universe DB container for simple integration with a Postgres database.

Endpoints

A Postman collection is available to help you explore the API. Review the Postman collection to get started.

Prerequisites

Ensure Docker Desktop on your local machine is available.

  • Use the following command and ensure you receive an output displaying the version number.
    docker version

Alternatively, you can install Podman.

  • If you are not using a Linux operating system, create and start the Podman Machine in your local environment. Otherwise, skip this step.
    podman machine init
    podman machine start
  • Use the following command and ensure you receive an output displaying the installation information.
    podman info

Usage

The quickest method to start the API server locally is by using the Docker image.

docker pull ghcr.io/spectrocloud/hello-universe-api:1.1.0
docker run -p 3000:3000 ghcr.io/spectrocloud/hello-universe-api:1.1.0

If you choose Podman, you can use the following commands.

podman pull ghcr.io/spectrocloud/hello-universe-api:1.1.0
podman run -p 3000:3000 ghcr.io/spectrocloud/hello-universe-api:1.1.0

To start the API server you must have connectivity to a Postgres instance. Use environment variables to customize the API server start parameters.

Environment Variables

The API server accepts the following environment variables.

Variable Description Default
PORT The port number the application will listen on. 3000
HOST The host value name the API server will listen on. 0.0.0.0
DB_NAME The database name. counter
DB_USER The database user name to use for queries. postgres
DB_HOST The hostname or url to the database. 0.0.0.0
DB_PASSWORD The database password. password
DB_ENCRYPTION The Postgres ssl mode behavior to enable. Allowed values are: require, verify-full, verify-ca, or disable disable
DB_INIT Set to true if you want the API server to create the required database schema and tables in the target database. false
AUTHORIZATION Set to true if you want the API server to require authorization tokens in the request. false

Authorization

The API can be enabled with authorization which results in all requests requiring an authorization header with a token. An anonymous token is available:

931A3B02-8DCC-543F-A1B2-69423D1A0B94

To enable authorization for the API set the environment variable AUTHORIZATION to true. Ensure all API requests have an Authorization header with the Bearer token.

curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:3000/api/v1/counter' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer 931A3B02-8DCC-543F-A1B2-69423D1A0B94'

Note

Authorization does not apply to the /health endpoint.
