Simplistic Rest API for Wordle based R6 knowledge game (webpage down)

R6dle REST API

Introduction

This is basic REST API used to gather simple statistical data for the R6dle. There is no authentication or authorization implemented, and the Bearer token is purely for user identification, it does not provide any safety!!!

Routes

GET /token

Generates url safe token for user identification.

GET /stats/global

Returns global statistics for the daily operator in R6dle.
Query Parameters:

• date - date in format YYYY-MM-DD (default: today)

GET /stats/user

Returns user statistics for the in R6dle - max_streak, current_streak, total_solves.

PATCH /stats

Requires token
Updates statistics with new guess, as provided (both user and global).
Query Parameters:

• solves - number of guesses that it took user to solve the daily operator

GET /operator

Requires token
Returns the daily operator (as sha256 hash, to make it harder to scrape it for the user) for the R6dle.

CORS

Currently, CORS is enabled strictly for the https://rwlodarczyk.github.io - domain of R6dle, so it's harder to abuse the tokens.

Important Files and Directories to keep track of

• postgres-data directory will store state of the postgres database from the Docker container.
