This section describes the advanced configuration options of i2Rest Server. To configure, the file in the JSON format is used, the settings reference is [[I2Rest_Config|here]]

[[I2Rest_Gates#i2Rest_Gates|i2Rest Gate]] is the endpoint where the server listens for incoming requests. The server uses up to three endpoints to process requests from clients, administrators/managers and sessions. Configuration file can contain up to three gate objects to setup these endpoints. If the configuration does not contain a setting for some gate, then the default setting is used - <code>file:</code> protocol at temporary location.<br/>
 
Detailed description of all available configuration options for gates is [[Gates_object|here]]
 
== i2Rest Gates protocols ==
 
=== http ===
 
This is a common protocol, without encryption. You can use this protocol in a fully secure network environment. Example:
 
"gates":
 
    {
 
      ...
 
      "main": {"url":"<nowiki>http://192.168.1.123:5678</nowiki>", ...},
 
      ...
 
    },
 
=== https ===
 
To protect the connections, use the https protocol. i2Rest Server uses standard [https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_ibm_i_71/apis/unix9a.htm IBM i GSK API] to protect connections. All required parameters are configured using DCM, see [[I2Rest_secured_gate|detailed guide]]. Example:
 
"gates":
 
    {
 
      ...
 
      "main": {"url":"<nowiki>https://192.168.1.123:5678</nowiki>", "dcm_server_id":"MYSERVER", ...},
 
      ...
 
    },
 
=== file ===
 
When your i2Rest Server instance and its clients both located on the same IBM i server, it is reasonable to use <code>file:</code> protocol. For example, you can use this protocol for management gate, to perform management functions using local i2Rest Client. i2Rest Server is able to listen incoming requests at some [https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_ibm_i_72/rzab6/uafunix.htm%7Cunix unix socket] defined as a file at IFS. In this case, the server will not be accessible externally. i2Rest Server uses temporary <code>file:</code> endpoints when it can't find configuration for some gate. Temporary <code>file:</code> endpoints are created at <code>/tmp</code> folder, for example <code>/tmp/AS5WRD7DCJ</code>. Example:

Take a look on how the minimal i2Rest configuration might look like.
 
<pre>
 
{
 
  "gates":
 
  {
 
      "main"      : {"url":"http://i2rest.com:22088"},
 
      "management" : {"url":"http://192.168.0.233:8080"},
 
      "session"    : {"url":"http://192.168.0.233:8888"}
 
  },
 
  "session_systems":
 
  [
 
        {"name": "*LOCAL",    "submit":"SBMJOB JOB(I2RESTS) USER(${user}) CMD(CALL JPCML/I2REST PARM('-session' '-url' '${surl}' '-uid' '${uid}'
 
          '-user' '${user}' '-init' 'ADDLIBLE JPCML' '-dcm_client_id' 'MYCLIENT')) INLLIBL(KAPBASELIB QGPL)"},
 
        {"name": "*ANONYMOUS", "submit":"SBMJOB JOB(I2RESTA) USER(${user}) CMD(CALL JPCML/I2REST PARM('-session' '-url' '${surl}' '-uid' '${uid}'
 
          '-user' '${user}' '-init' 'ADDLIBLE JPCML' '-dcm_client_id' 'MYCLIENT')) INLLIBL(KAPBASELIB QGPL)"},
 
  ],
 
}
 
</pre>
 
According to [[I2Rest_Config|I2Rest Configuration Object description]] just two i2Rest Configuration Object fields are mandotary: [[gates object]] and [[i2Rest_Gates|main, manager and session gates object]]. With only this two configured fields we already can run a server instance, but still can't get much use of it. Most valuable i2Rest Server applications - the [[I2Rest_API#run_program_API|run_program API]] and the [[I2Rest_API#run_command_API|run_command API]] requires some more stuff:
 
 
 
::run_command API requires [[OAuth2_object|Oauth2 object]];
 
::run_program API generally requires [[Pcml_object|PCML object]] to be set up, but Oauth2 object also is mandotary for programs which has "valid_in_anonymous":false flag in PCML.
 
So the setting that allows to call IBM i program as a web service might look like as follows:
 
<pre>
 
"pcmls":
 
  [
 
      {"pcml_mount":"echo",    "pcml_file":"pcml/echo.pcml", "valid_in_anonymous":true},
 
  ],
 
</pre>
 
Not too dificult, isn't it? Much more complex Oauth2 object example below:
 
<pre>
 
 
 
  "OAuth2":
 
  {
 
      "scopes": {"run_program"          : {"description":"Run *PGM and *SRVPGM"},
 
                "run_command"          : {"description":"Run CL command"},
 
                "system_BTC7"          : {"description":"Execute API on BTC7"},
 
                "management_functions" : {"description":"Invoke i2Rest manager APIs"}},
 
      "clients":
 
      {
 
        "OAUTH21":{"redirect_uri":"http://api.i2rest.com:22088/oauth2/redirect",
 
                    "description":"Test client",
 
                    "valid_scopes":["run_program", "run_command", "management_functions", "system_BTC7"],
 
                    "valid_grant_types":["authorization_code", "urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:device_code", "refresh_token", "client_credentials"]}
 
      },
 
      "users":
 
      {
 
        "BTAB":{"description":"Alexei Baranov", "valid_clients":{"OAUTH21":{"scopes":["run_program", "run_command", "management_functions", "system_BTC7"]}}},
 
        "BTPL":{"description":"Pavel Lobko",    "valid_clients":{"OAUTH21":{"scopes":["run_program", "run_command", "management_functions", "system_BTC7"]}}}
 
      },
 
      "tokens": {"type":"token"},"refresh_tokens":{"type":"refresh_token"},"codes":{"type":"code"},"device_codes":{"type":"user_code"},
 
 
 
      "login_page"            : "/pages/Login/index.html",
 
      "decision_page"        : "/pages/user_decide.html",
 
      "bad_auth_page"        : "/pages/bad_auth.html",
 
      "enter_code_page"      : "/pages/enter_code.html",

This section describes configuration options of i2Rest Server. Basic configuration allows only demo server functionality, and must be extended to supply full functional server instancence. Combining examples bellow you can achieve server functionality that suits your requirements.

i2Rest server should be restarted to aplly your new configuration *.json.
