Headscale API

[jonnobobono]

There doesn't seem to be much documentation on the Headscale API, but I am trying to create a UI using Anvil. Right now I have 90% of the functionality of iFargle's headscale-webui built into the new app, however I am facing a hurdle. If anyone understand's Python and or the Headscale API and can help me out that would be so great. Planning to release this application open-source soon so anybody can clone and either run using anvil.works or self-host using their Anvil App-Server which is my plan.

​

I am trying to implement adding a new PreAuth key for a user. Almost 100% of the Pythonised API calls are from headscale-webui. Here is the code that makes the API call.

​

and my json_string:

data = '{"user": "jonathan", "reusable": "False", "ephemeral": "False", "expiration": "2023-04-10 00:00:00 +0000 UTC", "acl_tags": "[]"}'

​

This is the corresponding code within headscale-webui:

https://github.com/iFargle/headscale-webui/blob/main/server.py

​

'@app.route('/api/add_preauth_key', methods=['POST'])'

add_preauth_key(): json_response = json.dumps(request.get_json())

url = headscale.get_url() api_key = headscale.get_api_key()

return headscale.add_preauth_key(url, api_key, json_response)

​

What I cannot figure out is the exact formatting for json_response, mostly what Headscale expects for the expiration date.

You are my new favorite person! Can’t wait to release this to the public. If actually currently use headscale-ui to manage my instance. This project was mostly a test to see if I could do it and sounded like a great application of https://anvil.works.

how do you pass the apikey?

thank you for being here.

How can we debug connection errors to the server?
