# `server`: The Circles WebSocket Server
# `server`: The Hero WebSocket Server
The `server` crate provides a secure, high-performance WebSocket server built with `Actix`. It is the core backend component of the `circles` ecosystem, responsible for handling client connections, processing JSON-RPC requests, and executing Rhai scripts in a secure manner.
An OpenRPC WebSocket Server to interface with the [cores](../../core) of authorized circles.
## Features
- **`Actix` Framework**: Built on `Actix`, a powerful and efficient actor-based web framework.
- **WebSocket Management**: Uses `actix-web-actors` to manage each client connection in its own isolated actor (`CircleWs`), ensuring robust and concurrent session handling.
- **JSON-RPC 2.0 API**: Implements a JSON-RPC 2.0 API for all client-server communication. The API is formally defined in the root [openrpc.json](../../openrpc.json) file.
- **Secure Authentication**: Features a built-in `secp256k1` signature-based authentication system to protect sensitive endpoints.
- **Stateful Session Management**: The `CircleWs` actor maintains the authentication state for each client, granting or denying access to protected methods like `play`.
- **Webhook Integration**: Supports HTTP webhook endpoints for external services (Stripe, iDenfy) with signature verification and script execution capabilities.
## Core Components
### `spawn_circle_server`
This is the main entry point function for the server. It configures and starts the `Actix` HTTP server and sets up the WebSocket route with path-based routing (`/{circle_pk}`).
### `CircleWs` Actor
This `Actix` actor is the heart of the server's session management. A new instance of `CircleWs` is created for each client that connects. Its responsibilities include:
- Handling the WebSocket connection lifecycle.
- Parsing incoming JSON-RPC messages.
- Managing the authentication state of the session (i.e., whether the client is authenticated or not).
- Dispatching requests to the appropriate handlers (`fetch_nonce`, `authenticate`, and `play`).
- [OpenRPC Specification](openrpc.json) defines the API.
- There are RPC Operations specified to authorize a websocket connection.
- Authorized clients can execute Rhai scripts on the server.
- The server uses the [supervisor] to dispatch [jobs] to the [workers].

For a more detailed breakdown of the authentication architecture, please see the [ARCHITECTURE.md](docs/ARCHITECTURE.md) file.
## Webhook Integration
The server also provides HTTP webhook endpoints for external services alongside the WebSocket functionality:
- **Stripe Webhooks**: `POST /webhooks/stripe/{circle_pk}` - Handles Stripe payment events
- **iDenfy Webhooks**: `POST /webhooks/idenfy/{circle_pk}` - Handles iDenfy KYC verification events
### Webhook Features
- **Signature Verification**: All webhooks use HMAC signature verification for security
- **Script Execution**: Webhook events trigger Rhai script execution via the same Redis-based system
- **Type Safety**: Webhook payload types are defined in the `heromodels` library for reusability
- **Modular Architecture**: Separate handlers for each webhook provider with common utilities
For detailed webhook architecture and configuration, see [WEBHOOK_ARCHITECTURE.md](WEBHOOK_ARCHITECTURE.md).
## How to Run
### As a Library
The `server` is designed to be used as a library by the `launcher`, which is responsible for spawning a single multi-circle server instance that can handle multiple circles via path-based routing.
To run the server via the launcher with circle public keys:
```bash
cargo run --package launcher -- -k <circle_public_key1> -k <circle_public_key2> [options]
```
The launcher will start a single `server` instance that can handle multiple circles through path-based WebSocket connections at `/{circle_pk}`.
### Standalone Binary
A standalone binary is also available for development and testing purposes. See [`cmd/README.md`](cmd/README.md) for detailed usage instructions.
```bash
# Basic standalone server
cargo run
# With authentication and TLS
cargo run -- --auth --tls --cert cert.pem --key key.pem
```
cargo run
