# Chat Registration System

The basic backend code needed to register & login to a chat system (to be built).
Send it the unhashed username and pin, and it'll store it in the `users.json` file with the pin hashed with SHA1.

## API Documentation

`POST /api/register/<name>/<pin>/<pronouns>` Register the username with the pin provided if it doesn't already exist

`GET /api/users/<name>` Check if the user exists

`GET /api/users/<name>/<pin>` Check if the user exists, and if the pin provided matches

`POST /api/users/change/<name>/<pin>/<new-name>/<new-pin>` Change a users pin/name

`GET /api/about/name/<name>` Get's the name of a user, probably just for checking if they exist

`GET /api/about/pronouns/<name>` Get's the pronouns of a user

## Chat Planning

Clientside js will register & check login of users, if login is correct will ask for a random token.
Backend will generate token, store it, and then send it to the client to set as a cookie.
Whenever user sends a message, client will send message & token and backend will check if token matches.

## To-Do:

- [x] Basic auth api
- [ ] Return json instead of string
	- status is main thing to deal with, ok/fail/panic
	- reason is for more details, mainly just for debugging?
- [ ] Basic messaging system
	- [ ] Finish up `chat::create_message()`
	- [ ] Create `chat::read_messages()`
	- [ ] Create `chat::delete_message()`
	- [ ] Different types of message events? eg. default, announcement, command
	- [ ] Emote support?
- [ ] Token generation & storage
	- [ ] API to refresh token
	- [ ] Store token in json
	- [ ] API to check token?
- [x] Pronouns
	- [ ] Change pronouns
	- [ ] Multiple sets of pronouns
- [ ] Some form of plural support?
- [ ] User management (banning, etc.)
- [ ] Blacklist words from chat/names
