Introducing Enhanced Functionality to XCM API: DB Module and Email Sending Support

We're excited to announce significant upgrades to XCM API, also known as LightSpell⚡️.

1. Streamlined API Key Management with PostgreSQL:

Managing API keys is now effortless. Our new PostgreSQL database module securely associates each API key with a user, enhancing access control. Each user can now request a custom rate limit that will be associated with his API key in the database. To try this feature you need to setup PostgreSQL database.

MacOS tutorial:

• Install PostgreSQL: Use a package manager like Homebrew to install PostgreSQL on your macOS system.

  brew install postgresql@14
  

• Access postgres terminal

  psql postgres
  

• Create a PostgreSQL Database with user:

  CREATE DATABASE yourdbname;
  CREATE USER youruser WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'yourpass';
  GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE yourdbname TO youruser;

• Update your .env file with following variables:

    DB_HOST=localhost
    DB_PORT=5432
    DB_USER=youruser
    DB_PASS=yourpass
    DB_NAME=yourdbname
  

2. Seamless Nodemailer and Gmail Integration:

Each user will receive a confirmation email after submitting a higher limit request form. Email example:

All emails entered in the EMAIL_ADDRESS_RECIPIENT_ARR env value will receive an email after user submits the form. Email example:

Sending authenticated emails is simplified with Nodemailer and Gmail. Follow this tutorial for a comprehensive guide on setting up Nodemailer with Gmail. Next update the .env with the obtained values:

EMAIL_ADDRESS_SENDER=sender@gmail.com - Email used for sending emails
EMAIL_ADDRESS_RECIPIENT_ARR=admin1@gmail.com,admin2@gmail.com - Email array used for receiving form submissions separated by coma
EMAIL_CLIENT_ID=
EMAIL_CLIENT_SECRET=
EMAIL_REDIRECT_URI=
EMAIL_REFRESH_TOKEN=

3. Other changes:

• Update generate api key URL. New URL: /app/generate-api-key
• Higher limit request form URL: /app/higher-request-limit
