Swiftpack.co - LiveUI/ApiCore as Swift Package

Base for API's that require user & team management including forgotten passwords, etc. This library should contain all the basic endpoints necessary to make your own SaaS platform similar to a github's own user management.

Warning!: This system is only designed to work with PostgreSQL at the moment!

Install

Just add following line package to your Package.swift file.

.package(url: "https://github.com/LiveUI/ApiCore.git", .branch("master"))

Configuration

There is a few ways to configure ApiCore. The easiest is through the Environmental variables.

CONFIG_PATH            // Path to a configuration file (default one is included `config.default.json`)
APICORE.JWT_SECRET     // Secret passphrase to sign JWT tokens (mandatory in production)

Configuration file looks like this

{
	"general": {
		"single_team": false
	},
	"auth": {
		"allow_registrations": true,
		"allow_invitations": true,
		"registration_domains": []
	},
	"server": {
		"name": "Booster!",
		"url": "http://localhost:8080",
		"max_upload": 50
	},
	"jwt_secret": "secret",
	"database": {
		"host": "localhost",
		"port": 5432,
		"user": "boost",
		"password": "aaaaaa",
		"database": "boost",
		"logging": false
	},
	"mail": {
		"email": "admin@apicore",
		"mailgun": {
			"domain": "sandbox-domain.mailgun.org",
			"key": "secret-key"
		}
    },
    "storage": {
        "local": {
	        "root": "/tmp/Boost"
        },
        "s3": {
	        "enabled": false,
			"bucket": "my-boost-appstore",
			"access_key": "my-access-key",
			"secret_key": "my-secret-key",
			"region": "us-east-1",
			"security_token": null
        }
    }
}

Each value can be set through a corresponding environmental variable in a number of formats

1) apicore.jwt_secret
2) APICORE.JWT_SECRET
3) apicore_jwt_secret
4) APICORE_JWT_SECRET

Integrationg ApiCore into a Vapor 3 app

To use ApiCore in an app, your configure.swift file could look something like this:

import Foundation
import Vapor
import DbCore
import MailCore
import ApiCore


public func configure(_ config: inout Config, _ env: inout Vapor.Environment, _ services: inout Services) throws {
    print("Starting ApiCore by LiveUI")
    sleep(10)
    Env.print()
    
    // Register routes
    let router = EngineRouter.default()
    try ApiCoreBase.boot(router: router)
    services.register(router, as: Router.self)
    
    // Go!
    try ApiCoreBase.configure(&config, &env, &services)
}

and main.swift somehow like that:

import ApiCoreApp
import Service
import Vapor

do {
    var config = Config.default()
    var env = try Environment.detect()
    var services = Services.default()
    
    // Setup ApiCore configure
    try ApiCoreApp.configure(&config, &env, &services)
    
    let app = try Application(
        config: config,
        environment: env,
        services: services
    )
    
    try app.run()
} catch {
    print("Top-level failure: \(error)")
}
