# Using Satyr's Rest API

## /api/instance/info

Generic enformation about the instance.

**Method**: GET

**Authentication**: no

**Parameters**: none

**Response**: Returns a JSON object containing the name, domain, version, email, and whether registration is open. Email will be null if not specified.

**Example**: `{name: "Example Instance", domain: "example.com", registration: false, version: 0.7, email: null}`



## /api/instance/config

Configuration of the instance relating to media

**Method**: GET

**Authentication**: no

**Parameters**: none

**Response**: JSON object containing the port and ping_timeout for RTMP, public and private play endpoints, and whether adaptive livestreaming and VOD recording are enabled.

**Example**:
```
{
	rtmp: {
		port: 1935,
		ping_timeout: 60
	},
	media: {
		vods: false,
		publicEndpoint: 'live',
		privateEndpoint: 'stream',
		adaptive: true
	}
}
```

Public and private endpoints work like this, from the above example:

stream to: rtmp://example.com/stream

play from: rtmp://example.com/live/username or https://example.com/live/username/index.mpd



## /api/users/live/

Returns the usernames and stream titles of 10 users who are currently streaming

**Method**: POST

**Authentication**: no

**Parameters**: num (optional), sort (optional), page (optional)

number is the number of results (maximum is 50)

sort is the optional way to sort results. current options are "alphabet" and "alphabet-r" (reversed)

page is the page number (i.e. skip the first num * page results)

**Response**: Returns an array of JSON objects containing the username and title of each stream. Returns an empty array if no one is streaming. Returns `{"error":"error code"}` in the event of an error. Will attempt to correct malformed requests to default values.

The array will be wrapped in a JSON object under the key 'users'.

**Example**: `{users: [{username:"foo", title:"bar"}] }`


## /api/users/all

Same as above, but returns all users regardless of whether they are streaming and if they're streaming or not.

**Example**: `{users: [{username:"foo", title:"bar", live:1}] }`



##  /api/register

Register a new user.

**Method**: POST

**Authentication**: no

**Parameters**: Username, password, confirm

**Response**: If successful, returns a json object with the users stream key. Otherwise returns `{error: "error reason"}`

`{error: "registration disabled"}`


## /api/login

Obtain a signed json web token for authentication

**Method**: POST

**Authentication**: no

**Parameters**: Username and password OR a valid JWT cookie expiring in less than 24 hours

**Response**: If succesful, will return `{success: ""}` or `{success: "already verified"}` if the JWT provided is too early to be renewed. If unsuccesful, will return `{error: "invalid password"}` or `{error: "Username or Password Incorrect"}` depending on the authentication method. Note that if a JWT is available, the parameters will be ignored.

**Notes**: I've already listed nearly every response. My final note is that the JWT is set as the cookie 'Authorization', not returned in the response.


## /api/user/update
