AreaCraft

An automation platform for connecting your favorite services

📋 Overview

AreaCraft is a web and mobile application that allows users to create automated workflows between different services. Similar to IFTTT or Zapier, AreaCraft lets you connect triggers (when something happens) with actions (do something) across multiple platforms.

✨ Supported Services

The platform currently integrates with the following services:

• Trello: Create, update, and manage boards, lists, and cards
• Callr: Make calls, send SMS, and manage media
• ChatGPT: Process messages with AI for sentiment analysis, categorization, summarization, and email formatting
• GitHub: Connect with your GitHub account
• Spotify: Connect with your Spotify account

🔄 Webhook Support

AreaCraft utilizes webhooks to trigger actions based on events:

Trello Webhooks

• Board events (create, update, delete)
• List events (create, update, delete)
• Card events (create, update, delete)
• Member events (create, update, delete)

Callr Webhooks

• Call events (outbound hangup, inbound start, outbound start, inbound hangup)
• Media recording events
• Billing credit events
• SMS events
• DID (Direct Inward Dialing) events (assigned, unassigned)

🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Docker and Docker Compose
• Node.js and npm/yarn for web development
• Expo CLI for mobile development
• API keys for the services you want to connect (Trello, Callr, ChatGPT, GitHub, Spotify, NASA)

Environment Setup

Create a .env file in the server directory with the following variables:

SERVER_SECRET_KEY=your_secret_key
DATABASE_URI=sqlite:///../Area.db

PORT=8080
SERVER_URL=http://your_public_ip:${PORT}
API_TRELLO=your_trello_api_key
API_SECRET=your_trello_api_secret
ADMIN_PASSWORD=your_admin_password
ADMIN_USERNAME=admin
CHATGPT_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key
CALLR_LOGIN=your_callr_login
CALLR_PASSWORD=your_callr_password
GITHUB_CLIENT_ID=your_github_client_id
GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET=your_github_client_secret
API_NASA=your_nasa_api_key

Running the Server

Navigate to the project directory and run:

cd server
docker compose up --build

The server will be available at http://localhost:8080.

Running the Web Client

cd web
