Burgernotes API docs

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

Authentication

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

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

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

Password must be at least 14 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.
