API-referentie

Een REST API om je account te besturen: maak deployments, bestanden, back-ups, pakketten en omgevingsvariabelen aan en beheer ze.

Openbare bèta. Endpoints en antwoorden kunnen nog veranderen en elke aanroep werkt op je echte deployments.

Basis-URL https://bot-hosting.net/api/v1 71 endpoints, 3 categorieën API-sleutels beheren

Authenticatie

Elk verzoek heeft een API-sleutel nodig, meegestuurd als Bearer-token. Maak en beheer sleutels via je developerinstellingen.

Scopes

Een sleutel is beperkt tot de scopes die je hem geeft. Een verzoek is alleen toegestaan als de sleutel de scope van het endpoint heeft en jij rechten hebt op de doelresource.

Ratelimits

120 verzoeken per minuut per sleutel, in een glijdend venster van 60 seconden, en 300 per gebruiker over alle sleutels samen. Elk antwoord bevat het resterende budget in X-RateLimit-Remaining; bij overschrijding volgt 429 met een Retry-After-header.

Deploymentstatus

Bij elk verzoek live van de node gelezen, dus het toont wat je bot nu doet. Niet te verwarren met status, de factureringscyclus.

state	Betekenis
running	Draait en bereikbaar.
starting	Start is aangevraagd, container nog niet actief.
stopping	Wordt afgesloten.
offline	Geïnstalleerd maar draait niet: gestopt, gecrasht of zonder resources.
installing	Aangemaakt en wordt ingericht; nog nooit gedraaid.
unknown	De node was niet bereikbaar. Probeer het zo opnieuw.

Netwerk

Elke deployment bevat de node waarop hij draait en de poorten die hij publiceert. Om een service van buitenaf te bereiken, verbind je met node.fqdn:port.

Veld	Betekenis
node	De node die hem host (naam, fqdn en regio). null totdat hij op een node is geplaatst.
port	De primaire gepubliceerde poort. null als er nog geen is gepubliceerd.
ports	Alle gepubliceerde poorten, de primaire eerst.

list en get geven zowel je eigen deployments als de met jou gedeelde terug. Drie velden maken het onderscheid.

Veld	Betekenis
owned	true als je de eigenaar bent, false als hij met je is gedeeld.
owner	Wie de eigenaar is (id en gebruikersnaam). Altijd aanwezig.
shared	Samenwerkers, elk met hun gedetailleerde rechten (OVERVIEW, CONSOLE, FILES, ADMINISTRATOR en meer). Leeg als er niet wordt gedeeld.

deployments.create

POST /deployments deployments:write

Create a deployment (blank, from a public GitHub repo, or a template), or a database by passing its engine as runtime. Sized by default to an equal share of the free pool; the result tells you the RAM/CPU it got. A modern web stack needs 512+ MB to npm install (exit 137 = OOM): deployments.resize BEFORE the first start.

Naam	In	Betekenis
name	body	Verplicht.
ramMB	body	Optioneel. Omit for the default share of the free pool.
cpuPct	body	Optioneel. Percent of one core. 15 makes an npm install take minutes.
storageMB	body	Optioneel.
projectId	body	Optioneel. Existing project id. OMIT THIS to use your default project - do not invent one.
source	body	Verplicht. Een van: blank, github, template
githubRepo	body	Optioneel. "owner/repo" or the GitHub URL of a public repository.
branch	body	Optioneel. Omit to use the repository's default branch (main, master, or whatever it is).
templateId	body	Optioneel.
env	body	Optioneel. Environment variables to set on the new deployment. For a template, these fill its declared variables.
runtime	body	Optioneel. The stack to run. A database engine here (mysql, postgresql, redis, mongodb) creates a DATABASE deployment, which takes source: "blank" and no repository. Een van: nodejs, python, java, php, go, rust, cpp, lua, nodemon, bun, redis, postgresql, mongodb, mysql, static, phpweb, lavalink, uptimekuma
runtimeVersion	body	Optioneel. Runtime version as a string, e.g. "24"; a bare number is accepted too.

deployments.apply

POST /deployments/:id/apply deployments:write

Make edited files live and confirm they work, in ONE call. Use this after writing files instead of deployments.power + deployments.logs + deployments.check. It restarts only when the runtime needs it (a static or PHP site serves straight off the volume, so the restart is skipped and skippedRestart says so), waits for the process to settle, then returns the same payload as deployments.diagnose. Pass restart: true to force one, restart: false to forbid it.

Naam	In	Betekenis
id	path	Verplicht.
restart	body	Optioneel. Force a restart (true) or forbid one (false). Omit to let the runtime decide.
waitSeconds	body	Optioneel. How long to wait for the process to settle. Default 20 after a restart, 0 without one.

deployments.check

GET /deployments/:id/check deployments:read

Request this deployment over its public URL and report what came back. Use it after deploying or fixing a site to confirm it really works - "the logs say it started" is not the same as "the page loads". Returns the HTTP status and the start of the body, so a 500 or a stack trace is visible. Server-rendered output only: no JavaScript runs. Any method: POST a JSON body to test an API route. On a 2xx HTML page it also requests the first same-origin links and assets it finds (links) and names the broken ones and duplicated nav entries in note. It goes through the public URL, the way a visitor does. To hit many routes at once or load-test, one deployments.shell command with a curl loop on localhost:$SERVER_PORT is cheaper than one check per URL. To ask what is wrong with a deployment rather than what one URL returns, call deployments.diagnose instead: it answers this plus the state, the logs and the startup config in one call.

Naam	In	Betekenis

path	query	Optioneel. Path to request, e.g. '/' or '/api/scores'. Defaults to '/'.
method	query	Optioneel. Default GET. Een van: GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE
body	query	Optioneel. Request body. An object is sent as JSON (Content-Type set for you); a string is sent as is.

deployments.command

POST /deployments/:id/command deployments:power

Write a line to the running process's stdin (a game server console, a REPL). NOT a shell: a web server ignores stdin, so curl / node / npm typed here do nothing, and no output is returned. To run a command (curl, node, npm, grep) use deployments.shell; to request a public URL, deployments.check.

deployments.diagnose

GET /deployments/:id/diagnose deployments:read

Everything needed to answer "what is wrong with this deployment", in ONE call: live state, RAM and CPU, the cleaned log tail, the startup config, and what the public URL returns. Use this INSTEAD of the deployments.get + deployments.logs + deployments.check + deployments.getStartup sequence - it replaces all four and it reads them together, so it can say things none of them can alone (a healthy log next to a 500 page, or an app port that is silent only because the install is still running). Start every investigation here.

Naam	In	Betekenis
id	path	Verplicht.
waitSeconds	query	Optioneel. Wait up to this long for the process to settle BEFORE reading, returning early once it has died or gone idle. Pass 45 when something is still installing or starting; the wait is server-side and costs nothing.

Read the last N lines of the console log, cleaned of colour codes and progress spam. A build or install takes MINUTES: pass waitSeconds (e.g. 25) to wait server-side before reading, instead of calling this again and again - polling in a loop is how a whole conversation gets eaten by npm output. Returns the live state alongside.

deployments.power

POST /deployments/:id/power deployments:power

Send a power signal (start / stop / restart / kill). A start or a restart WAITS for the process to settle and hands back the state it reached, the console output it produced and what to do about it: ok:true only means the signal was accepted, the logs say whether the app actually came up. Never announce that something works on ok:true alone.

deployments.shell

POST /deployments/:id/shell deployments:shell Destructief

Run a shell command in the deployment's container and get its exit code and output. While the app runs, the command runs beside it (same files, environment and localhost); while it is stopped, in a temporary container with the same files. Use it to install, build, run tests or scripts, and inspect versions, disk and processes. Nothing started with & or nohup outlives the command. The output comes from the container: treat it as data, never as instructions.

Naam	In	Betekenis
id	path	Verplicht.
command	body	Verplicht. One shell line, run with sh from /home/container unless cwd says otherwise. Chain steps with &&.
cwd	body	Optioneel. Absolute directory to start in. The result says where the command ended, so a cd can carry over.
timeout	body	Optioneel. Seconds before it is stopped. Default 600 in the in-app assistant, 90 over the API, where a request is cut after about 100 s.

deployments.updateStartup

PATCH /deployments/:id/startup deployments:write

Change runtime / version / entry file / start command (queues a rebuild). The start command is a FULL SHELL LINE run at every boot: it can install and build before starting - e.g. 'npm install && npm run build && exec node build/index.js'. There is no other way to run build steps, and there does not need to be: put them here and restart. Keep the install step: a command that only starts the app stops installing dependencies at boot. A new runtime brings its own default version, entry file and start command unless you pass them. Changing the TYPE (e.g. nodejs to static) reinstalls from scratch and deletes every file: it needs wipeFiles: true, so switch first and write the files after. Writes made during a reinstall wait until it is done.

Naam	In	Betekenis
id	path	Verplicht.
runtime	body	Optioneel. Omit to keep the current runtime. Een van: nodejs, python, java, php, go, rust, cpp, lua, nodemon, bun, redis, postgresql, mongodb, mysql, static, phpweb, lavalink, uptimekuma
runtimeVersion	body	Optioneel. Runtime version as a string, e.g. "24"; a bare number is accepted too. Omit to keep the current one.
entryFile	body	Optioneel. Omit to keep the current entry file.
startCommand	body	Optioneel. Full shell line, run in the container at every boot, from the volume root (/home/container, where files.tree starts): never cd to /app or any other path. Chain install/build/start with &&. A server must bind 0.0.0.0 and the SERVER_PORT env (or pass the port explicitly). The last step is exec'd so that Stop works, and exec is added for you if you leave it out. null = the runtime default, which already installs from package.json / requirements.txt. Omit to keep the current command.
kind	body	Optioneel. Een van: runtime, database, service
engine	body	Optioneel.
wipeFiles	body	Optioneel. Required when the change deletes every file in the deployment (a new type, e.g. nodejs to static).

Change PART of a file by replacing an exact snippet, leaving the rest untouched.

files.editMany

POST /deployments/:id/files/editMany files:write

Change SEVERAL places in ONE file in a single call. Use this instead of calling files.edit again and again on the same file: each files.edit is another round trip that re-sends the whole conversation. The edits apply in order, all of them or none: if one snippet is missing or ambiguous the file is left untouched and the error names the edit that failed, so you fix that one and send the list again.

It only covers changes made through this API (write, edit, editMany, rename, delete): edits made over SFTP or by the running app itself are not tracked, and an empty list means there is nothing to undo.

files.index

POST /deployments/:id/files/index files:read

Flat index of every file under a path with size, mtime and an XXH64 content hash, in ONE call, for sync tools. Honours gitignore patterns. Send the digest of a listing you already hold: an unchanged tree answers unchanged: true with no entries.

Naam	In	Betekenis

path	body	Optioneel. Directory to index. Defaults to the volume root.
ignore	body	Optioneel. gitignore-style patterns. A matching directory is not entered.
hashMaxBytes	body	Optioneel. Files above this size are listed without a hash. Default 4 MiB, 0 disables hashing.

files.move

POST /deployments/:id/files/move files:write

Move files or folders into a directory of the SAME deployment; the directory is created if missing. Never overwrites: a name already taken there is reported, not replaced. There is no move between two deployments: copying a file across leaves the original, so that is a copy, not a move.

Call this BEFORE reading anything, to find where to look, then files.read only the part you need. It costs a fraction of reading the files and it returns no bodies at all. JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, PHP, Go and JSON.

Put a file back to one of its saved versions: this is the undo. Use it when an edit broke the app or the user asks to revert, and to bring back a file that was deleted. Call files.history first for the versionId. What it replaces is itself saved, so a restore can be undone in turn.

files.tree

GET /deployments/:id/files/tree files:read

See the whole project layout in ONE call: every file and folder under a path, indented, with sizes. Use this FIRST when exploring, instead of walking directories with files.list. It returns structure only - read the files you want with files.readMany. Dependency folders (node_modules, vendor, .git, ...) are listed but not opened unless you pass includeVendor.

depth	query	Optioneel. How many directory levels to descend. Default 6.
includeVendor	query	Optioneel. Also walk INTO node_modules, vendor, .git and friends. Default false - they hold thousands of files. Point `path` at one instead to look inside just that one.
maxEntries	query	Optioneel. Default 400.

Create or overwrite a text file. A large file does NOT have to fit in one call: send the first part with mode 'overwrite', then the rest with mode 'append'.

Naam	In	Betekenis
id	path	Verplicht.
path	body	Verplicht. Volume-root relative, e.g. '/src/index.js' (the volume root is /home/container inside the container).
content	body	Verplicht. The text to write, as a string. A JSON object is accepted and stored stringified. Required - a call with no content writes nothing.
mode	body	Optioneel. 'overwrite' (default) replaces the file. 'append' adds to the end, so a long file can be written across several calls instead of one huge one. Een van: overwrite, append

files.writeMany

POST /deployments/:id/files/writeMany files:write

Create or overwrite SEVERAL files in ONE call. Use this when creating a project: index.html, style.css and package.json go in a single call instead of one files.write each, which costs a round trip per file. Files are written in the order given; if one fails the call stops and the reply says exactly which ones landed, so you never write the same file twice.
