server: The Hero WebSocket Server

An OpenRPC WebSocket Server to interface with the cores of authorized circles.

  • OpenRPC Specification 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].

Authentication

The server provides a robust authentication mechanism to ensure that only authorized clients can execute scripts. The entire flow is handled over the WebSocket connection using two dedicated JSON-RPC methods:

  1. fetch_nonce: The client requests a unique, single-use nonce (a challenge) from the server.
  2. authenticate: The client sends back the nonce signed with its private key. The CircleWs actor verifies the signature to confirm the client's identity.

For a more detailed breakdown of the authentication architecture, please see the ARCHITECTURE.md file.
