Aurora API

Aurora's API is a Bun server that runs inside the same process as the Discord bot. It serves REST routes, the authenticated WebSocket endpoint, static assets, and built panel files.

Runtime model

• Entry point: api/src/server.ts
• Route dispatcher: api/src/routes/index.ts
• Auth: Discord OAuth with signed session cookies
• WebSocket: /ws
• Static assets: /assets/*
• Built panel fallback: panel/dist

Access model

Public:

• GET /api/health
• /auth/discord
• /auth/callback
• POST /auth/logout
• GET /auth/me

Player-accessible API routes:

• GET /api/stats
• GET /api/health
• GET /api/me
• GET /api/me/inventory

Admin-only API routes:

• everything else under /api/*

Admin vs player is derived from ADMIN_USER_IDS. A user must already exist in the users table to complete panel login.

WebSocket

/ws requires a valid aurora_session cookie.

Current behavior:

• dashboard clients subscribe to dashboard
• game clients also use lobby and room-scoped traffic through GameServer
• PING from the client returns PONG
• dashboard stats are broadcast every 5 seconds while at least one client is connected
• hard limits in api/src/server.ts:
  • 200 concurrent connections
  • 16 KB max payload
  • 60 second idle timeout

Development

Start the backend:

bun run dev

Optional panel dev server:

bun run panel:dev

Panel dev runs on http://localhost:5173 and proxies API/auth/assets/WebSocket requests to http://localhost:3000.
