World's Best API, no doubt about it.

Short Description

This API is intended to serve smiley faces. Requesters must first register an API key, which the server admin enters in public/db/keys.txt. After the key has been approved, the owner of the key may make a request to /api/(key) to mint a token. Once a token has been minted, the owner of the token may make a request to /api/smile/(token) within 30 seconds of getting the token to recieve a smiley face :)

For server admins

You can access a variety of tools for this API such as adding new keys and checking active tokens using the /api/admin endpoints. The current admin key is qxtvR2Xq, though you may change this in api.ts if you'd like.

• To add a key: GET /api/add_key?admin_key=<your key here>&new_key=<new key to add>
• To check active tokens: GET /api/active_tokens?admin_key=<your key here>
