• serve a SpaceAPI endpoint at https://spaceapi.fuz.re (done)
• set the opening status according to the presence button API at https://presence.fuz.re/api (done)
• add it to the directory so we can have nice opening stats at https://spaceapi.vanheusden.com/ and other great goodies (we could finally have the opening state on the wiki: https://github.com/HackspaceJena/hackspace-status-dokuwiki-plugin, via Binary Kitchen wiki!) (done)

sudo systemctl enable --now spaceapi.service

sudo mkdir -p /var/www/fuz.re/spaceapi/site
sudo certbot certonly --webroot -w /var/www/fuz.re/spaceapi/site -d spaceapi.fuz.re --deploy-hook '/usr/sbin/lighttpd -t -f /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf && service lighttpd reload'

No need to mess with anything else, certbot is already called every ~12 hours (see /etc/cron.d/certbot) as it was installed from Debian repos https://certbot.eff.org/docs/using.html#automated-renewals and lighttpd is reloaded after a successful renewal. This config is persistent in /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/spaceapi.fuz.re.conf (automatically created by the previous certbot command), see its doc here.

(To note: the certbot command was originally sudo certbot certonly --webroot -w /var/www/fuz.re/spaceapi/site -d spaceapi.fuz.re --deploy-hook 'cat "$RENEWED_LINEAGE/privkey.pem" "$RENEWED_LINEAGE/cert.pem" > "$RENEWED_LINEAGE/combined.pem"' --post-hook '/usr/sbin/lighttpd -t -f /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf && service lighttpd reload' but combining certs is not useful anymore in lighttpd, see certbot/certbot#94)

Corresponding lighttpd vhost config

                        url.redirect = (".*" => "https://${url.authority}${url.path}${qsa}")
                }
        }

To be run with

SPACEAPI='{"api":"0.13","space":"FUZ","logo":"https://fuz.re/WWW.FUZ.RE_fichiers/5c02b2a84373a.png","url":"https://fuz.re/","location":{"address":"11-15 rue dela Réunion, Paris 75020, FRANCE","lon":2.40308,"lat":48.85343},"contact":{"email":"","irc":"","ml":"fuz@fuz.re","twitter":"@fuz_re","matrix":"https://matrix.to/#/#fuz_general:matrix.fuz.re"},"issue_report_channels":["ml","twitter"],"state":{"icon":{"open":"https://presence.fuz.re/img","closed":"https://presence.fuz.re/img"},"message":"open under conditions: https://wiki.fuz.re/doku.php?id=map"},"projects":["https://wiki.fuz.re/doku.php?id=projets:fuz:start"]}' PRESENCEAPI=https://presence.fuz.re/api go run main.go

Functional and valid (curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://validator.spaceapi.io/v2/validateJSON -d "$(curl -s localhost:8080)") API in Go, to be published on Github

Pushed to GH, made the app fully configurable via env variable, deployed on sonic by following what I (Lomanic) did during the Online Fuzturday #1. Implemented certbot properly for this domain (see Deployment).

Pull request opened https://github.com/SpaceApi/directory/pull/157 and merged! The hackerspace is now on https://api.spaceapi.io/!

Redeployed on the new “octo” server, following the previous documentation but with the following configuration in /etc/systemd/system/spaceapi.service

Environment='SPACEAPI={"api":"0.14","api_compatibility":["14"],"space":"FUZ","logo":"https://wiki.fuz.re/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=wiki:logo.png","url":"https://fuz.re/","location":{"address":"57-59 Rue Étienne Marcel, 93100 Montreuil, FRANCE","lon":2.430790,"lat":48.858110},"contact":{"email":"","irc":"","ml":"fuz@fuz.re","twitter":"@fuz_re","matrix":"https://matrix.to/#/#fuz_general:matrix.fuz.re"},"issue_report_channels":["ml","twitter"],"state":{"icon":{"open":"https://presence.fuz.re/img","closed":"https://presence.fuz.re/img"},"message":"we are still moving in"},"projects":["https://wiki.fuz.re/doku.php?id=projets:fuz:start"]}'

With the following branch, making our endpoint up to the 0.14 spec and not completely broken when there's no (like currently) presence API available
