backend-store

Single Badger store to serve bite, transcription and any others. Is kinda bite-centric, so required values revolve around a Bite. Receives stores through NATS while data is retrieved via a http api. Checks backend-permissions for permissions to access the store.

Relies on being behind a traefik instance forwarding auth to backend-auth for authentication

Environment Variables

Supply environment variables by either exporting them or editing .env.

ENV	Description	Default
DBPATH	Path to store badger files in. Please make sure it exists.	/tmp/badger
NATS	Host and port of nats	nats://localhost:4222
LISTEN	Host and port to listen on	:80
PERMISSIONS_HOST	URL of backend-permissions	http://permissions

Key format

Takes in three variables: type, key and start. Type is the type of data to be inserted, e.g. bite or transcription. Key is the id of the conversation the bite was said in. Start is the Epoch timestamp of the start of the Bite.

NATS

Refer to protobuf definitions in backend-protobuf.
