API Documentation

You can access our Open API Doc here:

https://api.openshock.app/scalar/viewer

Configuration

The API can be configured using the following environment variables. These variables should be available to all containers in the stack. Preferred way is a .env file.

Variable	Required	Default value	Allowed / Example value
OPENSHOCK__DB__CONN	x		Host=postgres-server-host;Port=5432;Database=openshock;Username=openshock;Password=superSecurePassword
OPENSHOCK__DB__SKIPMIGRATION		false	true, false
OPENSHOCK__DB__DEBUG		false	true, false
OPENSHOCK__ACCOUNT__REGISTRATIONENABLED		true	true, false - false disables new user sign-ups
OPENSHOCK__FRONTEND__BASEURL	x		https://my-openshock-instance.net or https://shocklink.net
OPENSHOCK__FRONTEND__SHORTURL	x		https://myoi.net or https://shockl.ink
OPENSHOCK__FRONTEND__COOKIEDOMAIN	x		my-openshock-instance.net
OPENSHOCK__REDIS__CONN	x		redis-server-host:6379
OPENSHOCK__MAIL__SENDER__EMAIL	x		system@my-openshock-instance.net
OPENSHOCK__MAIL__SENDER__NAME	x		MyOpenShockInstance System
OPENSHOCK__MAIL__TYPE	x		MAILJET, SMTP
OPENSHOCK__TURNSTILE__ENABLE	x		true, false

Refer to the Npgsql Connection String documentation page for details about OPENSHOCK__DB_CONN. Refer to StackExchange.Redis Configuration documentation page for details about OPENSHOCK__REDIS__CONN.

Turnstile

When Turnstile enable is set to true, the following environment variable is required:

Variable	Required	Default value	Allowed / Example value
OPENSHOCK__TURNSTILE__SITEKEY	x
OPENSHOCK__TURNSTILE__SECRETKEY	x

EMail

MAILJET

You need these environment variables to use Mailjet:

Variable	Required	Default value	Allowed / Example value
OPENSHOCK__MAIL__MAILJET__KEY	x
OPENSHOCK__MAIL__MAILJET__SECRET	x

SMTP

You need these environment variables to use SMTP:

Variable	Required	Default value	Allowed / Example value
OPENSHOCK__MAIL__SMTP__HOST	x		mail.my-openshock-instance.net
OPENSHOCK__MAIL__SMTP__PORT		587	587
OPENSHOCK__MAIL__SMTP__USERNAME	x		system@my-openshock-instance.net
OPENSHOCK__MAIL__SMTP__PASSWORD	x		superSecurePassword
OPENSHOCK__MAIL__SMTP__ENABLESSL		true	true or false
OPENSHOCK__MAIL__SMTP__VERIFYCERTIFICATE		true	true or false

(Live Control) Gateway

These are the environment variables for the live control gateway. They are only required on the gateway container and are configuration local to the gateway.

Variable	Required	Default value	Allowed / Example value
OPENSHOCK__LCG__FQDN	x		de1-gateway.my-openshock-instance.netde1-gateway.shocklink.net
OPENSHOCK__LCG__COUNTRYCODE	x		DE or XX as a placeholder / unknown

Deployment / Self Hosting

The OpenShock stack consists of the following components:

• Postgres as database
• Redis-Stack (with keyspace events KEA) (preferably DragonflyDB)
• One or multiple APIs (container, API)
• One or multiple gateways (container, LCG)
• One or multiple cron daemons (container, CRON)
• Frontend - stateless, can run on edge

Requirements

OpenShock instance needs to be under the same domain name to work correctly. This is due to cookie limitations in browsers.

Frontend: https://openshock.app API: https://api.openshock.app LCG: https://de1-gateway.openshock.app

In this case your cookie domain would be openshock.app, even if the frontend would be hosted under e.g. https://frontend.openshock.app

Using Docker (provided docker-compose.yml)

1. Grab the docker-compose.yml and .env file from the repository
2. Change the values in the .env file
3. Adjust traefik to your needs (e.g. add SSL certificates)

Run with docker compose up -d

---

You could also bring your own reverse proxy.
You would need to remove traefik from the docker-compose.yml and route the traffic in your reverse proxy.
