API documentation

safe-t-daemon starts a HTTP server on http://localhost:21326. AJAX calls are only enabled from safe-t.io subdomains.

Server supports following API calls:

url method	parameters	result type	description
/ POST		{version: string}	Returns current version of bridge
/enumerate POST		Array<{path: string, session: string | null}>	Lists devices. path uniquely defines device between more connected devices. It might or might not be unique over time; on some platform it changes, on others given USB port always returns the same path. If session is null, nobody else is using the device; if it's string, it identifies who is using it.
/listen POST	request body: previous, as JSON	like enumerate	Listen to changes and returns either on change or after 30 second timeout. Compares change from previous that is sent as a parameter. "Change" is both connecting/disconnecting and session change.
/acquire/PATH/PREVIOUS POST	PATH: path of device PREVIOUS: previous session (or string "null")	{session: string}	Acquires the device at PATH. By "acquiring" the device, you are claiming the device for yourself. Before acquiring, checks that the current session is PREVIOUS. If two applications call acquire on a newly connected device at the same time, only one of them succeed.
/release/SESSION POST	SESSION: session to release	{}	Releases the device with the given session. By "releasing" the device, you claim that you don't want to use the device anymore.
/call/SESSION POST	SESSION: session to call request body: hexadecimal string	hexadecimal string	Both input and output are hexadecimal, encoded in following way: first 2 bytes (4 characters in the hexadecimal) is the message type next 4 bytes (8 in hex) is length of the data the rest is the actual encoded protobuf data. Protobuf messages are defined in this protobuf file and the app, calling safe-t-daemon-go, should encode/decode it itself.
/post/SESSION POST	SESSION: session to call request body: hexadecimal string	0	Similar to call, just doesn't read response back. Usable mainly for debug link, currently working only with emulator.
