This repository is now archived. If you are looking for the current codebase for the Green Web Foundation platform, please see the 'admin-portal' repository on github, and its corresponding documentation site. If you have any further queries please contact the Green Web Foundation via the dedicated contact form - that's the fastest way to get a response. The rest of the README file is preserved for reference only, and the Green Web Foundation can not offer any support this software in this repository.
In this repo you can find the source code for the API and checking code that the Green Web Foundation servers use to check the power a domain uses.
Following Simon Brown's C4 model this repo includes the API server code, along with the green check worker code in packages/greencheck
.
Apps - API Server at api.thegreenwebfoundation.org
This repository contains the code served to you when you visit http://api.thegreenwebfoundation.org.
When requests come in, symfony accepts and validates the request, and creates a job for enqeueue to service with a worker.
The greenweb api application running on https://api.thegreenwebfoundation.org
This provides a backend for the browser extensions and the website on https://www.thegreenwebfoundation.org
This needs:
- an enqueue adapter, like fs for development, amqp for production
- php 7.3
- nginx
- redis for greencheck library
- ansible and ssh access to server for deploys
Currently runs on symfony 5.x
To start development:
- Clone the monorepo
git clone [email protected]:thegreenwebfoundation/thegreenwebfoundation.git
- Configure .env.local (copy from .env) for a local mysql database
composer install
bin/console server:run
- check the fixtures in packages/greencheck/src/TGWF/Fixtures to setup a fixture database
To deploy:
bin/deploy
To test locally:
- Go to http://127.0.0.1:8000 for homepage
- Go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/greencheck/www.nu.nl to test www.nu.nl
- If this keeps loading, everything is correctly setup, Now run
bin/console enqueue:consume
in a seperate terminal to process the checks
In packages/greencheck
is the library used for carrying out checks against the Green Web Foundation Database. Workers take jobs in a RabbitMQ queue, and call the greencheck code to return the result quickly, before passing the result, RPC-style to the original calling code in symfony API server.
In packages/publicsuffix
is a library provides helpers for retrieving the public suffix of a domain name based on the Mozilla Public Suffix list. Used by the API Server.
