api-server is a JSON RESTful API server implemented in
Go.
It serves data collected and processed by various DevMine projects (crawld, featscomp, repotool...).
All data is sent and received as JSON.
Timestamps use the ISO 8601 format:
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD (eg 2015-01-09T14:19:47+01:00)
Blank fields are included as null.
Only GET requests are answered.
Sending invalid JSON will result in a 400 Bad Request response:
GET /search/{"foo":1
Response
{
"message": "invalid JSON input"
}
400 Bad Request response may be returned when sending valid JSON that the
server does not know how to process. Example:
GET /search/{"foo":1}
Response
{
"message": "non existing feature: foo"
}
Parameters not specified as a segment in the path can be passed as an HTTP query string parameter.
Requests that return multiple results limit to 30 items by default.
However, up to 100 items can be returned by specifying the ?per_page
parameter. Example:
GET /users?per_page=42
Since not all resources are shown on a page, further items may be queried
by specifying the ?since parameter, which corresponds to an item ID:
GET /users?per_page=42&since=3747
All requests receive the version 1 of the API. You can verify which version of
the API the server is serving by visiting the route /:
GET /
Response
{
"version": 1,
"doc_url": "http://devmine.ch/doc/api-server"
}
Users related resources are served under the /users routes.
The /users route provides a dump of all the users, sorted by user IDs.
As the number of results is limited, you can specify from which user ID you
would like to list the users with the ?since parameter.
GET /users
You can get a single user by querying the /users/:username route.

To install the API server, run this command in a terminal, assuming Go is installed:
go get github.com/DevMine/api-server
Or you can download a binary for your platform from the DevMine project's downloads page.
You also need to setup a PostgreSQL database. And of course, you need to add some data into your database and compute the features (see crawld, features and other DevMine projects for this).
Some matrix computation is done and it uses the BLAS library so you need to have it installed on the server as well.
Copy devmine.conf.sample to devmine.conf and edit it according to your
needs. The configuration file has two sections:
- database: allows you to configure access to your PostgreSQL
database.
- hostname: hostname of the machine.
- port: PostgreSQL port.
- username: PostgreSQL user that has access to the database.
- password: password of the database user.
- dbname: database name.
- ssl_mode: takes any of these 4 values: "disable", "require", "verify-ca", "verify-null". Refer to PostgreSQL documentation for details.
- server: allows you to configure the server parameters.
- hostname: server hostname.
- port: port on which to listen.
- enable_cors: boolean indicating whether to allow Cross Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) or not.
Once the configuration file has been adjusted, you are ready to run the API
server (devmine).
You need to specify the path to the configuration file with the help of the -c
option. Example:
devmine -c devmine.conf
Some command line options are also available, mainly about logging options.
