Your open-source talks place. Backend part.

This is a backend part of ost.io application.

Ostio api is built with Rails.

• Copy nginx.conf to your nginx dir: sudo cp nginx.conf /etc/nginx/api.conf
• Restart nginx: sudo /etc/init.d/nginx restart
• Add your GitHub app id / secret to ENV:

# This is id / secret of example app. Callback URL for it:
# https://dev.ost.io:3000/auth/github
export GITHUB_APP_ID='b99404045c3917fd6be4'
export GITHUB_APP_SECRET='fedbf022667be7056bcaca9568e55151b219c660'

• Restart thin webserver: sudo killall thin && thin start -C thin.yml

Current API version is v1. You need to prepend v1/ to app requests except auth.

• Users
• Topics
• Repos
• Posts
