Sulkta 2f0d39baef Require AdaMaps API keys via env (no inline default)
Ingest and read keys are now read from environment variables
instead of inline defaults. Validators hard-fail at boot if either
env var is unset.

adacam-api

Clean Python Flask replacement for Hivemapper's odc-api — a 434k-line Node.js monolith with a filed CVE. This service runs on the Hivemapper Bee (HDC-S) dashcam as part of the adacam firmware stack.

What it does

  • Serves API endpoints for the companion Android app and adamaps-forwarder
  • Reads GPS data from Redis (GNSSFusion30Hz)
  • Stores landmark detections in SQLite
  • Forwards detections to AdaMaps API (with offline queuing)

Endpoints

Method Path Description
GET /api/1/landmarks/last/{N} Last N detections
POST /api/1/landmarks Ingest new detection
GET /api/1/gnssConcise/latestValid Current GPS fix
GET /api/1/status Device status
GET /api/1/deviceinfo Device identity
GET /api/1/recording/frames/latest Latest frame path

Note: /api/1/cmd is intentionally NOT implemented — that was the CVE.

Installation

./install.sh

This will:

  1. Copy files to /opt/adacam/
  2. Install Python dependencies
  3. Enable and start the systemd service
  4. Generate a device ID on first run

Configuration

Config file: /data/adacam/config.json
