# tracker-helper

Helper service for opentracker. Adds opentracker whitelisting via HTTP.

## setup

To install dependencies:

```bash
bun install
```

To run:

```bash
bun run index.ts
```

This project was created using `bun init` in bun v1.1.42. [Bun](https://bun.sh) is a fast all-in-one JavaScript runtime.


## building a docker image

tracker-helper unit & integration tests are run during the docker build. That step requires WL_CREDENTIALS env variable, as well as WL_FIFO_PATH and WL_FILE_PATH. WL_CREDENTIALS must be set to admin:admin during that test. Not really a secret at that stage, but to avoid docker complaining about "CREDENTIALS" in env, we pass it as a build `--secret`. The other two env vars are loaded from `secrets.testing`.

    dotenvx run -f ../../.kamal/secrets.testing -- docker build --secret id=WL_CREDENTIALS -t gitea.futureporn.net/futureporn/tracker-helper:latest .

When validating the container before pushing to production, it can be run as follows

    dotenvx run -f ../../.kamal/secrets.production -- docker run -it --init --rm -p 5063:5063 -e WL_CREDENTIALS -e WL_FILE_PATH -e WL_FIFO_PATH fp/tracker-helper
