# Golang Backend API for FIS (File Integrity Surveillance) Application
Developing a simple Golang backend API with the [Echo framework](https://github.com/labstack/echo) for FIS(File Integrity Surveillance) application which can be found [here](https://github.com/ayato91/Fair-Files). This API stores IDs and their corresponding hashes in a SQL server and provides functionality to verify if a given hash matches the stored hash for a specific ID. All the communication between the Application and API is secured using TLS encryption(HTTPS).  
Thereby providing both confidentiality and integrity service that aligns with the CIA (Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability) triad for data security.

## Getting Started

To get started with this project, follow these steps:

### Prerequisites

- Go installed on your machine.
- A SQL database server(sqlite) to store IDs and hashes.

### Installation

1. Clone this repository to your local machine:

  ```bash
  git clone https://github.com/justsaumit/go-fis-api.git
  cd go-fis-api
  ```

2. Initialize and install project dependencies using Go modules:

  ```bash
  go mod vendor
  ```

3. Create a configuration file (e.g., config.yaml) to specify your database settings and other configurations.

4. Run the server:

  ```bash
  go run server.go
  ```

### Usage

Once the server is running, you can access the API endpoints to add file hashes and verify them.

- To add a file hash, make a POST request to `/add` with JSON data containing the ID and hash.
- To verify a file hash, make a POST request to `/verify` with JSON data containing the ID and hash.

## To-Do-List
- [x] Handle Uploaded files (API)
- [x] Perform short ID Generation (API)
- [x] Perform Hashing (API)
- [x] Connect with DB
- [x] Store JSON data to DB
- [ ] Perform verification
