This repository contains a backend server in Node.js for the Babybox Panel Frontend. This project solves several problems:

• Dealing with CORS issues when requesting data from Babybox
• TODO: Accessing camera feed

The API starts with http://IP:PORT/api/v1/; and then there are 3 main endpoints:

• units/ - for communicating with both engine and thermal unit

  • actions/ - these endpoints don't follow the standard RESTful practices; they execute some action when GET request comes
    • open/ - opens the front doors
    • openServiceDoors/ - opens the service doors (mainly for reseting the babybox state)
  • settings/ - to PUT settings data (as JSON [{ index: string, value: string, unit: "engine"|"thermal"}]; it has to be an array)

• engine/ - for communicating with the engine unit

  • data/ - to GET all the data from the unit
  • watchdog/ - when PUT is received it will refresh the watchdog timer (babybox won't get blocked)

• thermal/ - for communicating with the thermal unit

  • data/ - to GET all the data from the unit

• TODO: camera/ - for communicating with the camera

There is an example request for each of these done in Postman - the exported collection is in /src/routes/__postman__/babybox-panel.postman_collection.json. The postman tests need both working units to work.
