QuorielAPI

A high-performance extension for ForgeScript that provides a reliable and scalable way to build HTTP APIs using uWebSockets.js.

Installation

``
npm i @quoriel/api uNetworking/uWebSockets.js#v20.52.0
`

Connection

`js
const { ForgeClient } = require("@tryforge/forgescript");
const { QuorielApi } = require("@quoriel/api");

const client = new ForgeClient({
extensions: [
new QuorielApi({
port: 3000, // HTTP server port (default: 3000)
path: "routes", // Routes directory path
cacheIP: 10000, // Cache up to 10,000 converted IP addresses (optional)
ssl: { // SSL options for HTTPS (optional)
cert_file_name: "cert.pem",
key_file_name: "key.pem"
},
allowed: { // Global access control (optional)
hosts: ["api.quoriel.com"],
ips: {
white: ["243.117.6.40", "198.140.170.153"],
black: ["30.164.62.195"]
},
headers: {
"Authorization": "Bearer your-token-here"
}
},
throttle: { // Rate limiting and burst protection (optional)
rateWindowMs: 120000,
rateMaxRequests: 75,
blockDuration: 365000
}
})
]
});

client.login("...");
`

Cache

Caching of converted IP addresses for performance optimization.

`js
cacheIP: 10000 // Cache up to 10,000 converted IP addresses (optional)
`

> [!TIP]
> IP caching significantly improves performance by storing IP addresses in string format, avoiding repeated conversions from binary buffers.

SSL

For HTTPS support, provide SSL options. If SSL options are present, the server will use SSLApp, otherwise it will use regular App.

`js
ssl: {
cert_file_name: "path/to/cert.pem", // SSL certificate file
key_file_name: "path/to/key.pem", // Private key file
passphrase: "your_passphrase", // Password for encrypted private key
ca_file_name: "path/to/ca.pem", // Certificate Authority chain file
ssl_ciphers: "ECDHE-RSA-AES128-...", // Allowed SSL cipher suites
ssl_prefer_low_memory_usage: true // Optimize for lower memory usage
}
`

> [!TIP]
> Available SSL options: See uWebSockets.js AppOptions

Allowed

Access control mechanism for routes that can be configured globally or for individual routes.

`js
allowed: {
hosts: [], // Array of allowed hostnames
ips: {
white: [], // Only these IPs are allowed
black: [] // These IPs are blocked
},
headers: {} // Required request headers
}
`

$3

- false - disable access control for this route
- true or (if not specified at all) - use global rules only
- { merge: true, ... } - merge route settings with global rules (route takes priority)
- { ... } - apply route settings only (ignore global)

Throttle

Request rate limiting and burst protection to prevent abuse and automated attacks.

`js
throttle: {
rateWindowMs: 60000, // Rate limit window duration (default: 60000ms = 1 minute)
rateMaxRequests: 60, // Max requests per rate window (default: 60)
burstWindowMs: 1000, // Burst detection window duration (default: 1000ms = 1 second)
burstMaxRequests: 3, // Max requests per burst window (default: 3)
blockDuration: 600000, // Block duration in milliseconds (default: 600000ms = 10 minutes)
cleanupIntervalMs: 180000, // Cleanup interval for tracking data (default: 180000ms = 3 minutes)
maxTrackedIPs: 1500, // Maximum IPs to track simultaneously (default: 1500)
logBlocks: false // Log blocked IPs to console (default: false)
}
`

$3

The throttle system uses two-layer protection:

1. Rate Limiting - tracks total requests over a longer time window (e.g., 60 requests per minute)
2. Burst Protection - detects rapid request spikes in short intervals (e.g., 3 requests per second)

> [!IMPORTANT]
> When limits are exceeded, the IP is automatically blocked for a configured duration. Burst violations result in 2x longer blocks.

$3

- false - disable throttle completely
- true - enable with default settings
- { ... } - enable with custom parameters

> [!NOTE]
> Individual routes can only enable or disable throttle using throttle: false or throttle: true in the route definition. Custom throttle parameters cannot be configured per route, only globally.

Routes

Each route is defined as a module inside the routes directory.

`js
module.exports = {
url: "/*",
method: "GET",
code: $sendText[Hello world!]
};
`

$3

GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH, OPTIONS, HEAD, TRACE, CONNECT, ANY`
