Architecture and API Documentation

Dabbu is split into multiple layers - Applications, API, Modules, Data and Specifications.

Here is a little infographic to illustrate the different layers:

Reference Architecture

  • The applications layer represents the apps that end users can use, such as the Dabbu CLI.
  • The API layer includes implementations of the Dabbu Files API and the Dabbu Intelligence API. Apps in the applications layer are supposed to use these APIs.
  • The modules layer consists of ‘modules’ or services that return data in a certain format. For example, in the Dabbu Files API, each module interfaces with a provider and converts the data into a uniform, open format.
  • The data layer includes user data and preferences, along with OAuth tokens and metadata.
  • The specifications include API specs, resource schemas and documentation.

Each of these layers work together to create the Dabbu Knowledge Platform.
