Burgernotes API docs

Use the Burgernotes API to automate tasks, build your own client, and more!

Headers should be: "Content-type: application/json; charset=UTF-8" for all POSTs

Authentication

POST - /api/signup - provide "username" and "password".

POST - /api/login - provide "username" and "password".

To prevent the server from knowing the encryption key, the password you provide in the request must be hashed with the argon2 algorithm.

Parallelism should be 1 Iterations should be 256 Memory Allocated in bytes should be 512 Length of Hash should be 32 bytes The output should be in the encoded format, not the hashed format

The salt should be the SHA-512 of the password.

Password should be at least 8 characters, username must be under 20 characters and alphanumeric.

If username is taken, error code 422 will return.

Assuming everything went correctly, the server will return a secret key.

You'll need to store two things in local storage:

  • The secret key you just got, used to fetch notes, save stuff etc.
  • SHA512 hashed password, used as encryption key

Encryption

Note content and title is encrypted using AES 256-bit.

Encryption password is the SHA512 hashed password we talked about earlier.
