Authorization

If you need to expose above HTTP APIs to the Internet. In order to prevent these APIs from being invoked by anyone, you can enable a simple authorization mechanism that is built in this program.

When starting the HTTP server from CLI, you can add a -a <AUTH_KEY> option. Then, every API needs to be invoked by a request which contains a Authorization header to send the AUTH_KEY.

Also, you may want to disable the web page. Just add a --only-api flag.

  1. Process snapshot (HTTP, documentation)
  2. Database Detection
