Taille-Main

Welcome to Taille-Main, the main server responsible for allowing Irish taxis to use a low-cost and open-source solution to perform their job. This project is written in Rust using the actix-web framework and is currently under active development.

Overview

• Purpose: Provide a minimal authentication service to start trips and give management tools for the support team.
• Tech Stack:
  • Rust
  • Actix-Web
• Database:
  • PostgreSQL
• Open Source: The project remains open source to encourage community collaboration and transparency.

Creating Users

• Currently, only clients with a valid MASTER_KEY bearer token can create new users.
• In the future, this mechanism will be replaced with more secure service keys, ensuring a more refined and role-based approach for user management.

Under Development

This project is still in the early stages:

• No Database: User data is currently handled in-memory or via static files. Future versions will integrate a database solution.
