# AudioPen Nextcloud Webhook
A Node.js service that receives notes from AudioPen and uploads them to Nextcloud via WebDAV. Includes a web UI for self-service setup — each user enters their own Nextcloud credentials and gets a unique webhook URL.
When AudioPen sends a webhook, the service:
1. Validates the token in the URL
2. Parses the note content (title, body, original transcript)
3. Creates a timestamped Markdown file
4. Uploads it to the user's configured Nextcloud folder
Example filename:
```text
2026-05-19T22-15-10.123Z-my-note-title.md
```
## Setup
### 1. Configure environment
Generate an encryption key (required — used to encrypt Nextcloud passwords at rest):
```bash
node -e "console.log(require('crypto').randomBytes(32).toString('hex'))"
```
Create a `.env` file in the project root:
```env
ENCRYPTION_KEY=paste-your-generated-key-here
ADMIN_PASSWORD=choose-a-strong-password
PORT=3000
# USERS_FILE=users.json # optional, defaults to users.json
```
`ENCRYPTION_KEY` is required — the server will not start without it. `ADMIN_PASSWORD` is required to create new accounts via the web UI; without it, registration is disabled (existing users can still update their settings via their token URL).
### 2. Install dependencies
```bash
npm install
```
### 3. Run as a systemd service
Copy the included service file and enable it:
```bash
sudo cp audiopen-nextcloud.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable --now audiopen-nextcloud
```
Check status or view logs:
```bash
sudo systemctl status audiopen-nextcloud
sudo journalctl -u audiopen-nextcloud -f
```
The service expects the app to be installed at `/opt/audiopen-nextcloud` with a `.env` file in that directory.
#### Running manually (without systemd)
```bash
node server.js
```
### 4. Register users
Open `http://localhost:3000` in a browser. Each user fills in their Nextcloud credentials and the admin password, then receives:
- A **webhook URL** to paste into AudioPen (`/webhook/<token>`)
- A **settings page URL** to bookmark for updating credentials later (`/?token=<token>`)
### Returning users
Visiting `/?token=<token>` pre-fills the form with existing settings and allows updating credentials without needing the admin password.
## Manual user management
User credentials are stored in `users.json` (gitignored). You can also edit this file directly — see `users.json.example` for the format.
