SCHLEUDER-API-DAEMON(8)

👑 schleuder-api-daemon — the manual, but make it cute

okay bestie, welcome to schleuder-api-daemon(8) — yeah it's section 8, it's a system admin page, but honestly? it's giving main character energy. sit down, grab a strawberry 🍓, and let's get into it.

---

✨ NAME ✨

schleuder-api-daemon — it serves up the API of schleuder(8). like, that's the whole job. it's the little daemon that hands the schleuder API to whoever asks nicely (and has a key 🔑).

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

schleuder-api-daemon

that's it. no flags, no args, no drama. she just is. 💅

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

schleuder-api-daemon provides the HTTP-API of schleuder(8) to clients. so all your little client apps can talk to schleuder over HTTP and it's not a whole thing. no cap. 🦋

---

🌈 ENVIRONMENT 🌈

🧚 Configuration

so here's the vibe: schleuder-api-daemon reads its configuration out of the api section of schleuder´s configuration. if you want the full tea on the config file itself, go read schleuder(8). it's all in there, fr fr.

the options that exist are:

• host — the hostname/IP to listen at. that's where she's posting up. 🪩
• port — the port to listen at. Default: 4443. (yes, 4443, the TLS-flavored sibling of 443, iconic honestly)
• tls_cert_file — path to the file that contains the TLS-certificate to use. you can generate a new one with schleuder cert generate. go off, get yourself a fresh cert 💖
• tls_key_file — path to the file that contains the TLS-key to use. keep this one safe, it's the whole personality.
• valid_api_keys — list of api_keys to allow access to the API. basically the VIP list. no key, no entry, periodt. ✋

🫶 Clients

the clients out here using the API are schleuder-cli(8) and schleuder-web. URLs to their websites are listed below, down in SEE ALSO. go click, bestie.
