The Donau RESTful API
=====================

The API specified here follows the :ref:`general conventions <http-common>`
for all details not specified in the individual requests.
The `glossary <https://docs.taler.net/glossary.html#glossary>`_
defines all specific terms used in this section.

API Overview
------------

This is intended to provide a quick overview of the whole REST API. For a more detailed view of the protocol, see the protocol specification.

The chapters group the families of requests frequently encountered when using the Donau API:

* :ref:`Status information<donau_status>`: get the public signing keys of the Donau, the donation unit key, the Donaus config or some entropy
* :ref:`Issue receipts<donau_issue>`: For use by charities: Issue receipts for blinded unique donor ids.
* :ref:`Submit receipts<donau_submit>`: Receive the receipts and, if valid, add all of it's donation units to the donor total. Returns a signature on the total yearly donation amount, hash of taxid+salt and year.
* :ref:`Charity administration and status information<donau_charity>`:

  * For use by administrators to add/modify a charity
  * For use by charities to get their remaining donation volume

.. _donau_status:

----------------------------------------
Donau public keys and status information
----------------------------------------

This API is used by donors and charities to obtain global information about
the Donau, such as online signing keys and available donation units.  This is
typically the first call any Donau client makes, as it returns information
required to process all of the other interactions with the Donau.  The
returned information is secured by signature(s) from the Donau, especially the
long-term offline signing key of the Donau, which clients should cache.

.. http:get:: /keys

  Get a list of all donation units keys offered by the Donau,
  as well as the Donau's current online signing key (used for donation statements).

  **Request:**

  **Response:**

  :http:statuscode:`200 OK`:
    The Donau responds with a `DonauKeysResponse` object. This request should
    virtually always be successful. It only fails if the Donau is misconfigured.

  **Details:**

  .. ts:def:: DonauKeysResponse

    interface DonauKeysResponse {
      // libtool-style representation of the Donau protocol version, see
      // https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Versioning.html#Versioning
      // The format is "current:revision:age".
      version: string;

      // Financial domain this Donau operates for.
      domain: string;

      // The Donau's base URL.
      base_url: string;

      // The Donau's currency.
      currency: string;

      // How many digits should the amounts be rendered
      // with by default. Small capitals should
      // be used to render fractions beyond the number
      // given here (like on gas stations).
      currency_fraction_digits: Integer;

      // Donation Units offered by this Donau
      donation_units: DonationUnitKeyGroup[];

      // The Donau's signing keys.
      signkeys: SignKey[];

    }

  .. ts:def:: DonationUnitKeyGroup

    type DonationUnitKeyGroup =
      | DonationUnitKeyGroupRsa
      | DonationUnitKeyGroupCs;

  .. ts:def:: DonationUnitKeyGroupRsa

    interface DonationUnitKeyGroupRsa extends DonationUnitKeyGroupCommon {
      cipher: "RSA";

      donation_units: ({
        rsa_pub: RsaPublicKey;
      } & DonationUnitKeyCommon)[];
    }

  .. ts:def:: DonationUnitKeyGroupCs

    interface DonationUnitKeyGroupCs extends DonationUnitKeyGroupCommon {
      cipher: "CS";

      donation_units: ({
        cs_pub: Cs25519Point;
      } & DonationUnitKeyCommon)[];
    }

  .. ts:def:: DonationUnitKeyGroupCommon

    // Common attributes for all donation unit groups
    interface DonationUnitKeyGroupCommon {
      // How much was donated based on this donation receipt.
      value: Amount;

    }

  .. ts:def:: DonationUnitKeyCommon

    interface DonationUnitKeyCommon {

      // For which year is this donation unit key valid.
      year: Integer;

      // Set to 'true' if the Donau somehow "lost" the private key. The donation unit was not
      // revoked, but still cannot be used to withdraw receipts at this time (theoretically,
      // the private key could be recovered in the future; receipts signed with the private key
      // remain valid).
      lost?: boolean;
    }

  .. ts:def:: DonationUnitKey

    type DonationUnitKey =
      | RsaDonationUnitKey
      | CSDonationUnitKey;

  .. ts:def:: RsaDonationUnitKey

    interface RsaDonationUnitKey {
      cipher: "RSA";

      // RSA public key
      rsa_public_key: RsaPublicKey;
    }

  .. ts:def:: CSDonationUnitKey

    interface CSDonationUnitKey {
      cipher: "CS";

      // Public key of the donation unit.
      cs_public_key: Cs25519Point;

    }

  A signing key in the ``signkeys`` list is a JSON object with the following fields:

  .. ts:def:: SignKey

    interface SignKey {
      // The actual Donau's EdDSA signing public key.
      key: EddsaPublicKey;

      // Initial validity date for the signing key.
      year: Integer;

    }


  .. note::

    Both the individual donation units *and* the donation units list is signed,
    allowing customers to prove that they received an inconsistent list.

.. http:get:: /seed

  Return an entropy seed. The Donau will return a high-entropy
  value that will differ for every call.  The response is NOT in
  JSON, but simply high-entropy binary data in the HTTP body.
  This API should be used by wallets to guard themselves against
  running on low-entropy (bad PRNG) hardware. Naturally, the entropy
  returned MUST be mixed with locally generated entropy.

.. http:get:: /config

  Return the protocol version, financial domain and currency supported by this
  Donau backend.

  **Response:**

  :http:statuscode:`200 OK`:
    The body is a `DonauVersionResponse`.

  .. ts:def:: DonauVersionResponse

    interface DonauVersionResponse {
      // libtool-style representation of the Donau protocol version, see
      // https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Versioning.html#Versioning
      // The format is "current:revision:age".
      version: string;

      // Name of the protocol.
      name: "taler-donau";

      // Currency supported by this Donau.
      currency: string;

      // Financial domain by this Donau.
      domain: string;

    }


.. _donau_issue:

--------------
Issue receipts
--------------

Inspired by the Taler exchange :ref:`Withdrawal<exchange-withdrawal>`.

This API is used by the charity to obtain valid, attested donation receipts from the Donau.
Use the :ref:`charity GET route<donau_charity_get>` to see the remaining donation volume for the current year.


All incoming `BDID` are recorded under the corresponding charity_id by the Donau.

.. http:POST:: /batch-issue/$CHARITY_ID

  Send in a `IssueReceiptsRequest` and ask the Donau to sign all it's contained `BDID`.

  **Request:** `IssueReceiptsRequest`

  **Response:**

  :http:statuscode:`200 OK`:
    The request was successful, and the response is a `BSDonationReceipts`.
  :http:statuscode:`403 Forbidden`:
    The charity signature is invalid. This response comes with a standard `ErrorDetail` response.
  :http:statuscode:`404 Not found`:
    At least one of the donation unit keys is not known to the Donau. Comes with a `DonationUnitUnknownError`. This suggests a bug in the donor as it should have used current donation unit keys from :ref:`/keys<donau_status>`.
  :http:statuscode:`409 Conflict`:
    The donation volume of the charity is not sufficient to issue donation receipts vor all sent in blinded udids. The response is a `IssueError` object.
  :http:statuscode:`410 Gone`:
    The requested donation unit key is not yet or no longer valid. It either before the validity start, past the expiration or was revoked. The response is a `DonationUnitExpiredMessage`. Clients must evaluate the error code provided to understand which of the cases this is and handle it accordingly.
