# API Contracts — Gitea Migration Toolkit

All API calls used by the migration scripts. Every `gitea_api`, `gitea_backup_api`, and `github_api` call in the codebase MUST have a corresponding entry here.

---

## Gitea REST API v1

Base URL: `${GITEA_INTERNAL_URL}/api/v1` (primary) or `${GITEA_BACKUP_INTERNAL_URL}/api/v1` (backup)
Auth: `Authorization: token ${GITEA_ADMIN_TOKEN}` (or `GITEA_BACKUP_ADMIN_TOKEN`)

---

### POST /users/{username}/tokens

**Used in**: Phase 1 (primary), Phase 2 (backup)

## Error Responses

All Gitea and GitHub API endpoints return standard HTTP error codes. The migration
scripts check `http_code >= 400` in `_api_call()` (lib/common.sh) and treat any
4xx/5xx as a failure.

### Common Error Codes

| Code | Meaning | Typical Cause |
|------|---------|---------------|
| 400 | Bad Request | Malformed JSON, missing required fields, invalid field values |
| 401 | Unauthorized | Token expired, revoked, or missing |
| 403 | Forbidden | Token lacks required scope (e.g., admin endpoint with non-admin token) |
| 404 | Not Found | Resource doesn't exist — used for idempotency checks (`GET` before `POST`) |
| 409 | Conflict | Resource already exists (e.g., duplicate token name, duplicate org name) |
| 422 | Unprocessable Entity | Validation failed (e.g., password too short, invalid repo name) |
| 500 | Internal Server Error | Server-side failure — retry may work for transient issues |

### Error Response Body

Gitea errors return JSON with a `message` field:
```json
{
  "message": "string describing the error",
  "url": "https://gitea.docs/api/endpoint"
}
```

GitHub errors return JSON with `message` and optionally `errors`:
```json
{
  "message": "Validation Failed",
  "errors": [
    {
      "resource": "Repository",
      "field": "name",
      "code": "already_exists"
    }
  ]
}
```

### How Scripts Handle Errors

- `_api_call()` logs the full response body on any 4xx/5xx and returns exit code 1
- Callers either `exit 1` (fatal) or continue with `|| true` (non-fatal, e.g., sync triggers)
- Idempotency checks use 404 as a signal to proceed with creation — this is expected, not an error

---

## Pagination

Gitea list endpoints return paginated results. The migration scripts do NOT
paginate because the data volumes are typically small (a handful of repos, runners, and mirrors).

### Gitea Pagination Headers

```
x-total-count: 42
link: <url?page=2&limit=50>; rel="next", <url?page=5&limit=50>; rel="last"
```

### Default Limits

| Endpoint | Default per-page | Max per-page |
|----------|:----------------:|:------------:|
| GET /admin/runners | 50 | 50 |
| GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/push_mirrors | 50 | 50 |
| GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/commits | 50 | 50 |
| GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/branch_protections | all (no pagination) | — |

### When Pagination Would Matter

If any of these grow beyond 50 items, scripts that use these endpoints would
silently miss results. For typical migrations (under 50 repos/runners), this
is not a concern. If migrating more than 50 repos, add `?limit=N` or
implement `Link` header following.
