Community Server API

This document describes the community server API. The community server is written in PHP and mixes front with backend. Furthermore cakePHP and its auto-generated controller structure is used to access the API. This whole part of the Software will be subject to refactoring.

// TODO In this examples I assume that you use gradido with or docker-compose build on your local maschine

Account overview

Returns the current account balance

Request

GET http://localhost/api/getBalance/

Response

Assuming: session is valid Session will be searched in php session and GRADIDO_LOGIN cookie. Additional session can be provided as GET-Parameter GET http://localhost/api/getBalance/-127182

{
	"state":"success",
        "balance":1590.60,
        "decay":1587.38,
        "decay_date":"2021-04-16T11:47:21+00:00"
}
  • balance : balance describes gradido as float with max two decimal places
  • decay : balance with decay on it at the time in decay_date, so it is the precise balance of user at time of calling this function
  • decay_date: date and time for decay amount, should be the time and date of function call

List transactions

List all transactions for logged in user

Request

GET http://localhost/api/listTransactions/[1]/[25]/[DESC]/[session_id] Parts symbolized by [] are optional

  • first parameter (1) is page for paging
  • second parameter (25) is count for paging
  • third parameter is ordering of resulting array, default is ASC
  • fourth parameter is session_id (session will be searched in php session and GRADIDO_LOGIN cookie and if not found use this )

Paging

With count you say how many entrys you like to have in the result. With page you say on which page you are. For example 50 transactions are in db. With 1/25 you get the first 25 transactions (1-25) With 2/20 you get the second 20 transactions (21-40)

Response

Creation transaction

Makes a creation transaction to create new Gradido

This assumes you have set

unsecure.allow_auto_sign_transactions = 1

in the Login-Server, so transactions can be auto-signed directly with handing in the transaction. Normally a forwarding to login-server check transactions side is necessary to minimize security risks. // TODO this is not documented

Request

POST http://localhost/api/createCoins

Response

In case of success returns:

{

	"timeUsed": 0.0122
}
  • timeUsed: time used for getting data from db in seconds, only for analyse backend performance

Send transaction

Make a simple GDD Transaction, send Coins from logged in user to another.

This assumes you have set

unsecure.allow_auto_sign_transactions = 1

in the Login-Server, so transactions can be auto-signed directly with handing in the transaction. Normally a forwarding to login-server check transactions side is necessary to minimize security risks. // TODO this is not documented

  • timeUsed: time used for getting data from db in seconds, only for analyse backend performance

Process

Once the transaction was created on community server, send to login-server, signed (if unsecure.allow_auto_sign_transactions = 1 and auto_sign = true) and then send back to community server to be finally put into the database.

After you get this answer you see the new transaction if you request the transaction list or call for the balance.

// TODO balance and at least last transaction must be returned with the call itself

Without auto-sign the transaction is pending on the login-server and waits for the user to review it at http://localhost/account/checkTransactions

// TODO how is this more secure? // TODO Is this in line with our usability goals? // TODO Should this not be handled client side?
