How to use/enable the api

[ghost]

I recently installed shaarli V0.9 on my personal server : https://shaarli.buron.coffee
And I want to use the api, but it seems that it doesn't works.

I first tried directly URL for example : https://shaarli.buron.coffee/api/v1/info. And I get a 404 error.

And I tried the Python-client and it was the same result.

What I have to do to solve this ?

Hi @emixam150 !

How is your web server configured?

URL rewriting must be enabled for the REST API to work, see https://shaarli.readthedocs.io/en/master/Server-configuration

More specifically:

• Apache:
  • mod_rewrite is enabled, and user-specific .htaccess rules are allowed
  • https://shaarli.readthedocs.io/en/master/Server-configuration/#htaccess
• Nginx:
  • URL rewriting is enabled
  • https://shaarli.readthedocs.io/en/master/Server-configuration/#redirect-http-to-https

Hey, thank you a lot for your response. You was right, I forget to check my apache configuration and I just have to add this in the site conf file:

<Directory /var/www/shaarli/ >
	AllowOverride All
</Directory>

By the way, do you know if there is a node.js module to handle with the api ?

You're welcome @emixam150 ;-)

Not that I know of, this should be simple to write:

• following the API specification: https://shaarli.github.io/api-documentation/
• using the Python client as an example: https://github.com/shaarli/python-shaarli-client
