Development

The developement of the FestivalsFilesAPI (see documentation) and the festivals-fileserver is quite forward and does not dependend on the festivals-api-ios client library directly.

To find out more about the architecture and technical information see the ARCHITECTURE document. The general documentation for the Festivals App is in the festivals-documentation repository. The documentation repository contains architecture information, general deployment documentation, templates and other helpful documents.

Deployment

The festivals-fileserver expects either a config file at /etc/festivals-fileserver.conf or the template config file present in the directory it runs from, it also expects the root certificate and the server certificate and key to establish secure inter-service communication as well as the client-service communication.

VM

The install, update and uninstall scripts should work with any system that uses systemd and firewalld. Additionally the scripts will somewhat work under macOS but won't configure the firewall or launch service.

#Installing
curl -o install.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Festivals-App/festivals-fileserver/master/operation/install.sh
chmod +x install.sh
sudo ./install.sh

#Updating
curl -o update.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Festivals-App/festivals-fileserver/master/operation/update.sh
chmod +x update.sh
sudo ./update.sh

#To see if the server is running use:
sudo systemctl status festivals-fileserver

Build and run using make

make build
make run
# Default API Endpoint : https://localhost:1910
