A lightweight go server app providing a RESTful API, called FestivalsIdentityAPI. The FestivalsIdentityAPI exposes all authorization and authentication functions needed by the the FestivalsApp components.

Development • Deployment • FestivalsIdentityAPI • Architecture • Engage

Development

1. Make server run ✅
2. Make server serves tls ✅
3. Make other server serve tls ✅
4. implement jwt to validate requests to other partys (especialy for admin requests) ✅

Requirements

• Golang Version 1.21.5+
• Visual Studio Code 1.85.2+
  • Plugin recommendations are managed via workspace recommendations.
• Bash script friendly environment

Deployment

Running the festivals-identity-server is pretty easy because Go binaries are able to run without system dependencies on the target for which they are compiled. The festivals-identity-server expects either a config file at /etc/festivals-server.conf, the environment variables set or the template config file present in the directory it runs from. You also need to setup the database correctly and provide all needed certificates in the right format, see festivals-pki.

FestivalsIdentityAPI

The FestivalsIdentityAPI is documented in detail here.

Architecture

There are a three diffrent security mechanisms to secure the festivalsapp backend, at first every party needs a valid client certificate from the FestivalsApp Root CA to communicate with other partys via mTLS, for more information see the festivals-pki repository. After secure communication is established, clients need either an API key for the read-only parts of the FestivalsAPI or an JSON Web Token (JWT) for everything else. The JWT is used to implement a role-based access control (RBAC) to decide whether the user is authorized to access the given function.

The general documentation for the Festivals App is in the festivals-documentation repository. The documentation repository contains architecture information, general deployment documentation, templates and other helpful documents.
