A FastAPI bridge that simplifies interaction with the Moodle API, providing discoverable endpoints and clear parameter guidelines. Built with FastAPI and Docker.

• Configuration-driven via config.json
• Dynamic FastAPI routes generated from config
• Built-in token retrieval endpoint
• Interactive API docs (Swagger UI)
• Docker-ready

Use the included compose.yaml or run the image directly.

Docker Compose (recommended):

services:
  moodlewareapi:
    build: .
    ports:
      - "8000:8000"
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      # Option A: Fixed Moodle URL for all requests
      - MOODLE_URL=https://moodle.example.edu
      # Option B: Per-request Moodle URL (set to * or leave empty)
      # - MOODLE_URL=*
      - ALLOW_ORIGINS=*
      - LOG_LEVEL=info

Start:

docker compose up -d --build

pip install -r requirements.txt
python asgi.py

Service URLs:

• Swagger UI: http://localhost:8000/
• Health: http://localhost:8000/healthz

• If MOODLE_URL is unset or *, include moodle_url in the query.
• If MOODLE_URL is a real URL, moodle_url is not required.

Example (per-request Moodle URL):

curl "http://localhost:8000/auth?moodle_url=https://moodle.school.edu&username=USER&password=PASS&service=moodle_mobile_app"

Provide the token either via Authorization header or ?wstoken=.

Example using Authorization header (with preconfigured MOODLE_URL):

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" "http://localhost:8000/core_webservice_get_site_info"

Example using query parameter (with preconfigured MOODLE_URL):

curl "http://localhost:8000/core_webservice_get_site_info?wstoken=YOUR_TOKEN"

Notes:

• When ALLOW_ORIGINS=*, credentials are disabled per CORS spec.
• Each response includes passthrough headers X-Moodle-Direct-URL and X-Moodle-Direct-Method for debugging.

• MOODLE_URL
  • Set to a full base URL (e.g., https://moodle.example.com) to use it for all requests, or
  • Set to * or leave empty to require moodle_url per request.
• PORT (default 8000)
• ALLOW_ORIGINS (comma-separated; * allows all without credentials)
• LOG_LEVEL (critical|error|warning|info|debug, default info)
