## Descrizione

Tired of heavy, bloated SaaS management tools? **Updawa** is a lightweight, headless
monitoring plugin built for developers, sysadmins, and agencies.

Instead of forcing you into a proprietary third-party dashboard, Updawa turns your
WordPress site into a secure data node. It gives you a clean admin dashboard to 
check site health instantly, while exposing a secure **REST API endpoint** that 
you can poll from any external monitoring tool, custom script, or mobile app.

Whether you manage one site or a hundred, Updawa is the perfect API-first alternative
to heavy management plugins.

#### Why Choose Updawa?

 * **Headless & Flexible:** Build your own dashboard using Grafana, custom Node/
   Python scripts, or your agency’s proprietary software.
 * **100% Private (No SaaS Lock-in):** Zero external dependencies. Your data never
   leaves your server. No pings to third-party tracking services.
 * **Ultra-Lightweight:** Only runs when queried. No background bloat, database 
   clutter, or heavy admin scripts.

#### Key Features

 * **Secure REST API Endpoint:** Fetch a full JSON snapshot of your site’s status
   via `GET /wp-json/updawa/v1/status`.
 * **Bearer Token Security:** The API is protected by a 256-bit cryptographically
   random token that you can regenerate or revoke at any time.
 * **SSL Certificate Monitoring:** Automatically checks your site’s HTTPS endpoint
   and reports the exact expiry date and days remaining.
 * **Beautiful Local Dashboard:** View pending update counts (Core, Plugins, Themes)
   and SSL status with intuitive colour-coded badges.
 * **QR Code Integration:** Easily import your API credentials into mobile monitoring
   apps via the bundled (zero-dependency) QR generator.
 * **Android App:** Monitor all your Updawa-enabled sites from your pocket, with
   push notifications for expiring SSLs and pending updates. [Download on Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.plz.updawa).
 * **JSON View:** See your site’s full API payload directly in the backend with 
   a one-click Copy button.
 * **Zero External Dependencies:** The QR code library is fully bundled and runs
   locally in your browser. No data is sent to external servers.

#### REST API

The endpoint is read-only and dead simple to use. Just pass your Bearer token:

    ```
    curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" https://example.com/wp-json/updawa/v1/status
    ```

Example JSON response:

    ```
    {
      "generated_at": "2026-04-14T09:10:41+00:00",
      "wordpress": {
        "current_version": "6.9.4",
        "update_available": false,
        "new_version": null,
        "package_url": null
      },
      "plugins": [ ... ],
      "themes":  [ ... ],
      "ssl_expires_at": "2026-07-05T01:48:00+00:00"
    }
    ```

## Installazione

 1. Upload the `updawa` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install 
    it directly via the WordPress Plugin Directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 3. Navigate to **Updawa** in your WordPress admin sidebar.
 4. Open the **Token API** tab to copy your API token or scan the QR code to connect
    your external monitoring tools.

## FAQ

### Can I use the REST API from a remote monitoring system?

Yes! That is exactly what Updawa was built for. Simply copy the Bearer token from
the **Token API** tab and include it as the `Authorization: Bearer {TOKEN}` header
in your HTTP requests.

### Does the plugin monitor SSL certificates?

Yes. If your site runs on HTTPS, Updawa securely connects to your domain on port
443 to read the certificate expiry date. The dashboard shows a warning badge when
fewer than 30 days remain.

### Does Updawa send my data to external servers?

No. Zero data is sent to external servers. Updawa uses WordPress’s native built-
in functions for update checks. The QR code library is fully bundled and runs locally
in your browser.

### How is the API token stored and secured?

The token is safely stored as a WordPress option (`updawa_token`) in your database.
It is never transmitted to us or logged by the plugin. If compromised, you can instantly
invalidate it by clicking **Regenerate token**.

### What happens to my data when I delete the plugin?

The plugin’s uninstall routine removes the `updawa_token` option from the database
when the plugin is deleted through the WordPress admin.

### Is there a mobile app?

Yes, the Updawa Android app is available on [Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.plz.updawa).
It lets you monitor update and SSL status across multiple WordPress sites from your
phone, with push notifications when updates are available or certificates are about
to expire. Scan the QR code in the **Token API** tab to import your site instantly.
