Introduction

The Photo Fortress API allows users to upload images securely and retrieve them using a secure URL format. It's designed to provide a simple and efficient way to manage images in applications.

Authentication

The Photo Fortress API does not require authentication for basic functionality. However, certain endpoints or features may require authentication in future versions.

Endpoints

Upload Image

Endpoint: POST /upload

Description: Uploads an image to the server and saves it to the database.

Request Parameters:

  • imagefile: The image file to upload (multipart/form-data)

Response:

  • Status: 200 OK
  • Body: { message: "Image uploaded successfully" }
  • Status: 400 Bad Request
  • Body: { error: "No file uploaded" }
  • Status: 500 Internal Server Error
  • Body: { error: "Failed to upload image" }

Get an image by id

Endpoint: GET /get_image/:id

Description: Retrieves an image with the given id from the server.

Response:

  • Status: 200 OK
  • Body: { imageUrl: "https://example.com/image.jpg" }

  • Status: 500 Internal Server Error

  • Body: { error: "Failed to get image ids" }

Error Handling

The API returns appropriate HTTP status codes and error messages to indicate the success or failure of requests. See individual endpoint descriptions for details on error responses.

Rate Limiting

Rate limiting is not implemented in the current version of the API but may be introduced in future versions to prevent abuse and ensure fair usage.

Usage Examples

Uploading an Image

curl -X POST -F "imagefile=@/path/to/image.jpg" http://localhost:3000/upload

Retrieving an Image

curl http://localhost:3000/get_image/1234

Versioning

The API follows semantic versioning (SemVer). Any breaking changes to the API will result in a new major version release.
