# go-nc-exapp
Shared Go library for Nextcloud ExApp Services: AppAPI authentication, OCS JSON calls, per-user ExApp preferences, and an optional Required Groups Access Gate.
Import: `gitea.neitzel.de/konrad/go-nc-exapp` (package `gonexapp`).
## Scope
**Included**
- **Credentials** — Nextcloud base URL, AppAPI secret, and requesting user identity
- **AuthHeaders** — outbound AppAPI authorization for OCS and other Nextcloud calls
- **WithUser** — credentials scoped to a specific requesting user
- **UserFromRequest** — extract the requesting user from inbound AppAPI-proxied requests
- **OCSClient** — authenticated OCS calls that always append `format=json`
- **AppAPIPreferences** — parameterized get/set of a string ExApp preference (caller supplies app id and key)
- **Access Gate** — optional Required Groups enforcement (`Wrap` + `Check`), English denied HTML for browsers, positive membership cache; env helpers for `REQUIRED_GROUPS` / `REQUIRED_GROUPS_CACHE_SECONDS`
**Excluded**
- ExApp lifecycle HTTP routes (`/heartbeat`, `/enabled`, …) — the Gate *skips* these by default but does not implement them
- HaRP listen / `serve()` and unix-socket bootstrap
- Top-menu, script, and iframe UI registration
- WebDAV and file storage (see **go-nc-files**)
- **Visit** folder resolution (see **go-nc-files**)
## Usage
```go
cred := gonexapp.Credentials{
BaseURL: "https://nextcloud.example",
AppID: "myexapp",
AppVersion: "0.1.0",
AAVersion: "1.0.0",
AppSecret: os.Getenv("APP_SECRET"),
UserID: "alice",
}
prefs := gonexapp.NewAppAPIPreferences(cred, "myexapp", "savedDefault")
value, err := prefs.Get()
groupsEnv, groupsSet := os.LookupEnv("REQUIRED_GROUPS")
groups := gonexapp.ResolveRequiredGroups(groupsEnv, groupsSet, nil)
ttl := gonexapp.ParseCacheSeconds(os.Getenv("REQUIRED_GROUPS_CACHE_SECONDS"), gonexapp.DefaultCacheSeconds)
handler := gonexapp.AccessGate{Cred: cred, Groups: groups, CacheTTL: ttl}.Wrap(inner)
```
Each ExApp chooses its own preference keys; this library does not hardcode product-specific names.
Declare `REQUIRED_GROUPS` and `REQUIRED_GROUPS_CACHE_SECONDS` in the ExApp `info.xml` so Deploy options can set them.
Runnable package examples: `go test -run Example`.
## Domain language
See [CONTEXT.md](./CONTEXT.md) for AppAPI credentials, Requesting user, ExApp preference, OCS, Required Groups, and Access Gate terminology.
## Testing
Unit tests use `httptest` fake OCS servers. No live Nextcloud is required for Library CI.
