Green Web Foundation API

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.

Build Status

Overview

Following Simon Brown's C4 model this repo includes the API server code, along with the green check worker code in packages/greencheck.

API

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.

API

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:

Packages - Greencheck

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.

API

Packages - public suffix

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.
