Node.js example backend for kPaste,
exposing the REST API used in NewPaste and ShowPaste components
+ a web accessible cron task for expirated pastes deletion.
It follows what kPaste sends and expects, so it just works by setting the provided endpoints, which are :
POST /api/paste
GET /api/paste/{id}
Expirated pastes aren't accessible, but obviously still in database,
/cron route deletes them.
- This is not used or provided by Infomaniak.
- kPaste isn't meant to be a distribuable project, it contains Infomaniak specific code and assets.
- Fonts used by kPaste probably can't be freely reused in terms of licensing.
- CORS is handled, Access-Control-Allow-Origin being set to the request origin because kPaste use of fetch (with credentials) prevents wildcard use.
- While kPaste service is XSRF protected, this isn't.
- This is an example, not quite intented to be used as is. That also means eventual changes are made without caring of any migration need.
DATABASE_URL environnement variable must be set in .env file at project root,
leading to a MySQL database (see Prisma docs).
Table should be created after dependencies installation by running:
npx prisma db push
(which also generates the database client).
