# Implement your own admin API
|
|
## Why
|
|
Create your own Admin API and connect it to WorkAdventure if:
|
|
|
|
- you want to connect WorkAdventure to your own database
|
|
- you want some of your users to have special privileges (tags)
|
|
- you want to create rooms dynamically
|
|
- you want to have "pretty URLs" for your rooms
|
|

Be aware that WorkAdventure is licensed under "AGPL-3 restricted by the commons clause". It means in particular you are not allowed to sell a version of WorkAdventure online as a service. If in doubt, please contact us at hello@workadventu.re. We can offer special licenses depending on your use-case.

## Architecture
|
|
```mermaid
|
|
graph LR
|
|
style API stroke:#ff475a,stroke-width:2px,stroke: 5 5
|
|
subgraph WorkAdventure
|
|
F(Front) <--> P("Pusher") --> B(Back)
|
|
end
|
|
subgraph YW["Your website"]
|
|
API("Admin API")
|
|
P ---> API
|
|
end
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
First you need to understand how Work Adventure architecture is made.
|
|
WorkAdventure is divided in 3 sections :
|
|
- **Front**<br>
|
|
The front is the visible part of Work Adventure, the one that serves the game.
|
|
- **Pusher**<br>
|
|
The pusher is the one that centralizes the connections and makes exchanges through WebSocket tunnels with the clients of the Front.
|
|
In addition, he speaks with the Back and the admin API if it's determinate.
|
|
- **Back**<br>
|
|
The back is the service that allows all metrics, movements, bubbles to persist.
|
|
|
|
Finally, the Admin API is the part where the members are managed. This part is fully optional.
|
|
If you are reading this documentation this is surely because you want to implement your own admin API.
|
|
|
|
## Principles
|
|
**Important!** It is not your site that will call the pusher but the reverse.<br>
|
|
The pusher will directly ask your admin API for the information and authorizations it needs.
|
|
|
|
```mermaid
|
|
sequenceDiagram
|
|
participant F as Front
|
|
participant P as Pusher
|
|
participant API as Admin API
|
|
autonumber
|
|
F ->>+ P: /map
|
|
P ->>+ API: /api/map
|
|
API -->>- P: MapDetailsData
|
|
P -->>- F: MapDetailsData
|
|
F ->>+ P: /room/access
|
|
P ->>+ API: /api/room/access
|
|
API -->>- P: FetchMemberDataByUuidResponse
|
|
P -->>- F: FetchMemberDataByUuidResponse
|
|
F ->>+ P: /woka/list
|
|
P ->>+ API: /api/woka/list
|
|
API -->>- P: WokaList
|
|
P -->>- F: WokaList
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The most important endpoints are:
|
|
- `/api/map`<br>
|
|
_On the sequence diagram this is the call n°2._<br>
|
|
This end point maps the URL of the map to the map info (in particular the URL to the Tiled JSON file.
|
|
It will process the playURI and the uuid to return the information of the map if the user can access it.<br>
|
|
In case of success, this endpoint returns a `MapDetailsData` object.
|
|
- `/api/room/access`<br>
|
|
_On the sequence diagram this is the call n°6._<br>
|
|
This end point returns the member's information if he can access this room.<br>
|
|
In case of success, this endpoint returns a `FetchMemberDataByUuidResponse` object.
|
|
- `/api/woka/list`<br>
|
|
_On the sequence diagram this is the call n°10._<br>
|
|
This end point returns a list of all the woka from the world specified.<br>
|
|
In case of success, this endpoint returns a `WokaList` object.
|
|
|
|
## What to do
|
|
1. You will need to implement, in your website, all the URLs that are listed in this swagger documentation : [WA Pusher](https://pusher.workadventu.re/swagger-ui/).
|
|
2. In the `.env` file :
|
|
* Set the URL of your admin API, set the environment variable :
|
|
`ADMIN_API_URL=http://example.com`
|
|
* Set the token of the API to check if each request is authenticated by this token :
|
|
`ADMIN_API_TOKEN=myapitoken`
|
|
If the call is not correctly authenticated by the Bearer token in the header, make sure to answer with a 403 response.
