FT Web

FT Web is a user-friendly web app and API for Noisebridge's Flaschen-Taschen!

End-user usage

Web UI

If you are physically at Noisebridge...

  1. Visit http://pegasus.noise:4444/ in your favorite web browser

  2. Type/upload the text, image (including GIFs), or video you want to see displayed on the FT

  3. Look at the Flaschen-Taschen to watch your upload come to life! 🎉

CLI

export FT_WEB_BASE=http://pegasus.noise:4444

(When testing locally, use http://127.0.0.1:4444 instead.)

Form POSTs:

curl -X POST -F text='Hello, Noisebridge!' ${FT_WEB_BASE}/api/text

curl -X POST -F image=@my_image_goes_here.png ${FT_WEB_BASE}/api/image

curl -X POST -F video=@my_video.mp4 ${FT_WEB_BASE}/api/video

JSON POSTs:

curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"text": "Hello, Noisebridge!"}' ${FT_WEB_BASE}/api/text

curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"image": "'$(base64 my_image_goes_here.png | tr -d '\n')'"}' ${FT_WEB_BASE}/api/image

(echo -n '{"video": "'; base64 example_video.mp4; echo '"}' ) | curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d @- ${FT_WEB_BASE}/api/video

For full API docs, run

curl ${FT_WEB_BASE}/api

To use CLI tools to speak the FT-specific UDP protocol directly (and thus side-stepping this web UI and API), see https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Flaschen_Taschen#Network_protocol_and_Utilities_to_send_content
