# API documentation
Several tasks of HedgeDoc can be automated through HTTP requests.
The available endpoints for this api are described in this document.
For code-autogeneration there is an OpenAPIv3-compatible description available [here](openapi.yml).
## Notes
These endpoints create notes, return information about them or export them.
You have to replace *\<NOTE\>* with either the alias or id of a note you want to work on.
| Endpoint | HTTP-Method | Description |
| ---------------------------------------------- | ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `/new` | `GET` | **Creates a new note.**<br>A random id will be assigned and the content will equal to the template (blank by default). After note creation a redirect is issued to the created note. |
| `/new` | `POST` | **Imports some markdown data into a new note.**<br>A random id will be assigned and the content will equal to the body of the received HTTP-request. The `Content-Type: text/markdown` header should be set on this request. |
| `/new/<ALIAS>` | `POST` | **Imports some markdown data into a new note with a given alias.**<br>This endpoint equals to the above one except that the alias from the url will be assigned to the note if [FreeURL-mode](../configuration.md#users-and-privileges) is enabled. |
| `/<NOTE>/download` or `/s/<SHORT-ID>/download` | `GET` | **Returns the raw markdown content of a note.** |
| `/<NOTE>/publish` | `GET` | **Redirects to the published version of the note.** |
| `/<NOTE>/slide` | `GET` | **Redirects to the slide-presentation of the note.**<br>This is only useful on notes which are designed to be slides. |
| `/<NOTE>/info` | `GET` | **Returns metadata about the note.**<br>This includes the title and description of the note as well as the creation date and viewcount. The data is returned as a JSON object. |
| `/<NOTE>/revision` | `GET` | **Returns a list of the available note revisions.**<br>The list is returned as a JSON object with an array of revision-id and length associations. The revision-id equals to the timestamp when the revision was saved. |
| `/<NOTE>/revision/<REVISION-ID>` | `GET` | **Returns the revision of the note with some metadata.**<br>The revision is returned as a JSON object with the content of the note and the authorship. |
| `/<NOTE>/gist` | `GET` | **Creates a new GitHub Gist with the note's content.**<br>If [GitHub integration](../configuration.md#github-login) is configured, the user will be redirected to GitHub and a new Gist with the content of the note will be created. |
## User / History
These endpoints return information about the current logged-in user and it's note history. If no user is logged-in, the most of this requests will fail with either a HTTP 403 or a JSON object containing `{"status":"forbidden"}`.
| Endpoint | HTTP-Method | Description |
| ----------------- | ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `/me` | `GET` | **Returns the profile data of the current logged-in user.**<br>The data is returned as a JSON object containing the user-id, the user's name and a url to the profile picture. |
| `/me/export` | `GET` | **Exports a zip-archive with all notes of the current user.** |
| `/history` | `GET` | **Returns a list of the last viewed notes.**<br>The list is returned as a JSON object with an array containing for each entry it's id, title, tags, last visit time and pinned status. |
| `/history` | `POST` | **Replace user's history with a new one.**<br>The body must be form-encoded and contain a field `history` with a JSON-encoded array like its returned from the server when exporting the history. |
| `/history` | `DELETE` | **Deletes the user's history.** |
| `/history/<NOTE>` | `POST` | **Toggles the pinned status in the history for a note.**<br>The body must be form-encoded and contain a field `pinned` that is either `true` or `false`. |
| `/history/<NOTE>` | `DELETE` | **Deletes a note from the user's history.** |
## HedgeDoc-server
These endpoints return information about the running HedgeDoc instance.
| Endpoint | HTTP-Method | Description |
| --------- | ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `/status` | `GET` | **Returns the current status of the HedgeDoc instance.**<br>The data is returned as a JSON object containing the number of notes stored on the server, (distinct) online users and more. |

# Documentation
Our documentation is build with [mkdocs](https://www.mkdocs.org).
## Writing
All documentation files are found in the `docs/content` directory of the [hedgedoc/hedgedoc repo](https://github.com/hedgedoc/hedgedoc). These files are just normal markdown files with nothing special about them.
The configuration for mkdocs lies in the `docs` folder in a file called `mkdocs.yml`. With that file the theme and menu - amoung others - can be configured.
**Please note:** Any new files need to be linked to by other files or put in the navigation or the files will be very hard to find on the documentation website.
## Building
To build the documentation locally you need to perform the following steps:
0. Make sure you have python3 installed.
1. Go into the `docs` folder.
2. Install all the dependencies (E.g. with a [venv](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html)) with `pip install -r requirements.txt`
3. Start the mkdocs dev server (`mkdocs serve`) or build the documentation (`mkdocs build`).
## Deployment
The documentation is deployed with [Messor Structor](https://github.com/traefik/structor).
The necessary Dockerfile and version menu template and also the github action to build the whole documentation can be found in the [docs.hedgedoc.org repo](https://github.com/hedgedoc/docs.hedgedoc.org). This repo is also used to deploy the actuall website to github.io.
Messor Structor builds and deploys the documentation by finding all branches that follow the pattern `v*`. For each branch the docs are generated separately by first installing the dependencies from `requirements.txt` and then running mkdocs. Afterwards the menu go template is used to include a version switcher in the theme.

# Getting started
## Preparing for running the code
**Notice:** *There's [specialised instructions for docker](../setup/docker.md) or [heroku](../setup/heroku.md), if you prefer running code this way!*
1. Clone the repository with `git clone https://github.com/hedgedoc/hedgedoc.git hedgedoc-server`
(cloning is the preferred way, but you can also download and unzip a release)
2. Enter the directory and run `bin/setup`, which will install npm dependencies
and create configs. The setup script is written in Bash, you would need bash
as a prerequisite.
3. Setup the [config file](../configuration.md) or set up
[environment variables](../configuration.md).
## Running the Code
Now that everything is in place, we can start HedgeDoc:
1. `yarn run build` will build the frontend bundle. It uses webpack to do that.
2. Run the server with `node app.js`
## Running the Code with Auto-Reload
The commands above are fine for production, but you're a developer and surely
you want to change things. You would need to restart both commands whenever you
change something. Luckily, you can run these commands that will automatically
rebuild the frontend or restart the server if necessary.
The commands will stay active in your terminal, so you will need multiple tabs
to run both at the same time.
1. Use `yarn run dev` if you want webpack to continuously rebuild the frontend
code.
2. To auto-reload the server, the easiest method is to install [nodemon](https://www.npmjs.com/package/nodemon)
and run `nodemon --watch app.js --watch lib --watch locales app.js`.
## Structure
The repository contains two parts: a server (backend) and a client (frontend).
most of the server code is in `/lib` and most of the client code is in `public`.

# Operational Transformation
From 0.3.2, we started supporting operational transformation.
It makes concurrent editing safe and will not break up other users' operations.
Additionally, now can show other clients' selections.
See more at [https://operational-transformation.github.io/](https://operational-transformation.github.io/)
And even more in this 2010 article series:

# Webpack
Webpack is a JavaScript build system for frontend code. You can find out all
about it on [the webpack website](https://webpack.js.org/).
Here's how we're using it:
## `webpack.common.js`
This file contains all common definitions for chunks and plugins that are needed by the whole app.
The various entrypoints under the `entry` key define groups of files (npm packages or .css/.js files directly from this project) that need to be included together to be useful.
The `index` group for example bundles all javascript files and libraries used for the note editor.
Entrypoints are referenced in the `plugins` section.
The `HtmlWebpackPlugin` uses templates in `public/views/includes` to include the path to the generated resources in new templates under `public/views/build`. These templates are then used by the backend to serve HTML to the browser.
**TODO:** Document which entry points are used for what.
## `webpack.htmlexport.js`
Separate config for the "save as html" feature.
Packs all CSS from `public/js/htmlExport.js` to `build/html.min.css`.
This file is then downloaded by client-side JS and used to create the HTML.
See `exportToHTML()` in `public/js/extra.js`.
## `webpack.dev.js`
The development config uses both common configs, enables development mode and enables "cheap" source maps (lines only).
If you need more detailed source maps while developing, you might want to use the `source-maps` option.
See <https://webpack.js.org/configuration/devtool/> for details.
## `webpack.prod.js`
The production config uses both common configs and enables production mode.
This automatically enables various optimizations (e.g. UglifyJS). See <https://webpack.js.org/concepts/mode/> for details.
For the global app config, the name of the emitted chunks is changed to include the content hash.
See <https://webpack.js.org/guides/caching/> on why this is a good idea.
For the HTML export config, CSS minification is enabled.
