A simple REST API for Inconnu.
Upload a character "faceclaim" image. Requires the following payload:
- guild: The Discord server on which the character exists
- user: The Discord user uploading the image
- charid: The character's database ID
- image_url: The URL where the image can currently be found
When this endpoint runs, it downloads the image from the URL, converts it to WebP at 99% quality, and uploads it to Google Cloud Storage.
Delete all of a character's faceclaim images. This is accomplished by publishing a message to Pub/Sub, which triggers a Cloud Function that handles the actual deletion. This has the benefit of a speedup over waiting for GCS to find all the blobs belonging to the character and deleting them one-by-one.
Delete a single faceclaim image found at {charid}/{key}. As above, this is accomplished by a Pub/Sub-triggered Cloud Function.
Uploads a log file to GCS for archival storage.
(Why not?) There are a few reasons:
- Get practice with something new to me.
- Offload image processing from the bot process. This allows the image downloading, WebP conversion, and image uploading to happen asynchronously.
- Make the bot code vendor-agnostic. With an API as an abstraction, the bot won't need to know about whichever cloud vendor (currently GCP) is in use.
