Onboarding Server

The onboarding server allows makers to manage their hotspot production and permit hotspot customers to onboard them to the blockchain.

Development

Before running the following commands, make sure to have a running postgres db instance.

  • clone the repo
  • run yarn install
  • initialize the database with yarn db:create
  • run the migrations with yarn db:migrate
  • run yarn task src/tasks/create_maker.js and follow the prompts to create or import a Maker record
  • run the dev server with yarn dev
  • the dev server will be accessible at localhost:3002

Production

When running in production, make sure to set the following env vars to secure random values:

Environment Variable Description Example
KEYRING JSON keyring object {"1":"2xNJEZvMlr99yPqGfh0sa7pO7j1tH73RTU9qJwwi4bs="}
KEYRING_SALT Additional entropy for keyring encryption WmcKZ46ciIZqTvXm9TMd5V63b8k6iw/tVkcv/qEI0KU=

The recommended way of generating secure secrets is:

dd if=/dev/urandom bs=32 count=1 2>/dev/null | openssl base64 -A

Refer to https://github.com/fnando/keyring-node for additional details about how the at-rest encryption with keyring works.

Rate Limiting

In production it is recommended to enable rate limiting to prevent nefarious users from scraping or brute forcing the APIs. Rate limiting relies on Redis to store IP addresses and request counts. Redis connection info is supplied through a REDIS_URL env var.

Heroku

The onboarding server is configured to run on Heroku out of the box. It will use the nodejs buildpack, and comes with a Procfile that defines the web resource command as npm start. Additionally, the free Heroku Redis add-on can be installed and will automatically be picked up by the rate limiter.

Admin tasks can be run on Heroku like so: heroku run yarn task src/tasks/create_maker.js

Admin Tasks

The following tasks are included for managing admin functionality of the onboarding server:

Create Maker

yarn task src/tasks/create_maker.js

Creates a Maker account taking name, location nonce limit and optionally an exported wallet entropy string. You can also choose to create a Maker API token for the newly created Maker.

Create Token

yarn task src/tasks/create_token.js

Creates a Maker API token for the selected Maker.

Export Maker

yarn task src/tasks/export_maker.js

Exports the unencrypted wallet entropy seed to be imported into another onboarding server instance.

Onboarding Server Maker API

  • Base route: /api/v2

Authentication

With all requests, include an authorization header where the value is your public token and private token joined with a colon (:). For example:

curl --location --request GET 'https://onboarding.example.com/api/v2/hotspots' \
--header 'authorization: pk_INSERT_REST_OF_PUBLIC_TOKEN:sk_INSERT_REST_OF_SECRET_TOKEN'

Other Headers

With all POST and PUT requests that contain a body, include the Content-Type: application/json header. For example:

curl --location --request POST 'https://onboarding.example.com/api/v2/hotspots' \
--header 'Authorization: auth_tokens_here' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "macWlan0": "example mac"
}'

Hotspots

This API allows a Maker to create and manage their Hotspots.

Index

Returns all Hotspots that a Maker has created in a paginated fashion. Page number and size can be controlled by optional url params.

Route:

GET /hotspots

Params:

Param Required Default Value Description
page no 0 Page number used to paginate index of Hotspots
pageSize no 100 Number of Hotspots returned per page
Example Request:

GET /hotspots?page=5&pageSize=100

Show

Returns an individual Hotspot identified by its ID.

Route:

GET /hotspots/:id

Example Request:

GET /hotspots/123

Search

Searches for a Hotspot based on any of its attributes.

Route:

GET /hotspots/search

Params:
Param Required Default Value Description
onboardingKey no NULL A unique key that is used to identify a Hotspot for onboarding
macWlan0 no NULL Mac address of the wifi component
macEth0 no NULL Mac address of the ethernet component
rpiSerial no NULL Serial number of the Raspberry Pi unit
heliumSerial no NULL Serial of the Helium unit
batch no NULL A string used to identify manufacturing batches
publicAddress no NULL The b58 public address of the Hotspot that was onboarded
Example Request

GET /hotspots/search?macWlan0=examplemac

Create

Creates a new Hotspot entry. Hotspot details should be provided as a json object in the body of the POST request.

Route:

POST /hotspots

Params:
Param Required Default Value Description
onboardingKey no NULL A unique key that is used to identify a Hotspot for onboarding
macWlan0 no NULL Mac address of the wifi component
macEth0 no NULL Mac address of the ethernet component
rpiSerial no NULL Serial number of the Raspberry Pi unit
heliumSerial no NULL Serial of the Helium unit
batch no NULL A string used to identify manufacturing batches
Example Request

POST /hotspots

request body:

{
  "onboardingKey": "example-onboarding-key",
  "macWlan0": "22:98:17:a3:03:90",
  "macEth0": "e4:0b:59:88:27:5f",
  "rpiSerial": "example-rpi-serial",
  "heliumSerial": "example-helium-serial",
  "batch": "example-batch"
}

Update

Updates attributes of a Hotspot. NOTE: once a Hotspot has been onboarded and the publicAddress field set, it becomes immutable and cannot be changed or deleted by the Maker.

Route:

PUT /hotspots

Params:
Param Required Default Value Description
onboardingKey no NULL A unique key that is used to identify a Hotspot for onboarding
macWlan0 no NULL Mac address of the wifi component
macEth0 no NULL Mac address of the ethernet component
rpiSerial no NULL Serial number of the Raspberry Pi unit
heliumSerial no NULL Serial of the Helium unit
batch no NULL A string used to identify manufacturing batches
Example Request:

PUT /hotspots/123

request body:

{
  "rpiSerial": "updated-rpi-serial",
  "heliumSerial": "updated-helium-serial",
}

Destroy

Deletes a Hotspot record identified by ID. NOTE: once a Hotspot has been onboarded and the publicAddress field set, it becomes immutable and cannot be changed or deleted by the Maker.

Route:

DELETE /hotspots/:id

Params:
Param Required Default Value Description
onboardingKey no NULL A unique key that is used to identify a Hotspot for onboarding
macWlan0 no NULL Mac address of the wifi component
macEth0 no NULL Mac address of the ethernet component
rpiSerial no NULL Serial number of the Raspberry Pi unit
heliumSerial no NULL Serial of the Helium unit
batch no NULL A string used to identify manufacturing batches
Example Request:

DELETE /hotspots/123
