# Basic description
|
||||
|
||||
Rats Search server using WebSockets for internal communication. It require two way communication and using socket.io internally. As alternative added REST API implementation, but because of one-way limitation, it require periodic check of backward messages with **/api/queue** . You free to choise one of the ways for communication and implementation of your own client.
|
||||
|
||||
## WebSockets communication (1-way)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## REST API communication (2-way)
|
||||
|
||||
### Installation
|
||||
|
||||
At first you need to prepare server non-interface version
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/DEgITx/rats-search.git
|
||||
npm install --force
|
||||
npm run buildweb
|
||||
npm run server
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
You need to enable REST API configuration (disabled by default):
|
||||
|
||||
edit **rats.json** (change only restApi value):
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"restApi": true
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
set restApi to true, save
|
||||
|
||||
### API usage
|
||||
