Trackers Lens API

Landing integration log

Date: 2026-05-14

Public URLs

  • Website: https://trackerslens.com
  • API: https://api.trackerslens.com
  • Dashboard: https://app.trackerslens.com

Implemented on the landing

  • Login button opens an in-page modal matching the landing style.
  • Login modal calls GET /sanctum/csrf-cookie, then POST /api/login.
  • Register tab calls POST /api/register.
  • Successful auth redirects to https://app.trackerslens.com.
  • CTA buttons scroll to the launch/newsletter area and focus the email input.
  • Newsletter and launch modal call POST /api/launch-subscriptions and keep localStorage only as a local fallback/history marker.
  • Contact modal calls POST /api/contact-messages; the backend stores the request and sends the internal notification email when configured.
  • Footer links no longer use # placeholders. Existing sections use anchors; API reference uses https://api.trackerslens.com/docs/api-contract.
  • Social links point to public Trackers Lens profiles/placeholders.

API routes used by the landing

  • GET /sanctum/csrf-cookie
  • POST /api/login
  • POST /api/register
  • POST /api/launch-subscriptions
  • POST /api/contact-messages
  • GET /docs/api-contract
  • GET /docs/api-contract?format=md
  • GET /docs/landing-integration
  • GET /docs/landing-integration?format=md

Required production environment

For Sanctum cookie auth across the public domains, production .env should include values equivalent to:

APP_URL=https://api.trackerslens.com
FRONTEND_URL=https://app.trackerslens.com
CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS=https://trackerslens.com,https://www.trackerslens.com,https://app.trackerslens.com
SESSION_DOMAIN=.trackerslens.com
SANCTUM_STATEFUL_DOMAINS=trackerslens.com,www.trackerslens.com,app.trackerslens.com,api.trackerslens.com
MAIL_MAILER=smtp
MAIL_SCHEME=smtps
MAIL_HOST=smtp.mail.ovh.net
MAIL_PORT=465
MAIL_USERNAME=hello@trackerslens.com
MAIL_PASSWORD=...
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS=hello@trackerslens.com
MAIL_FROM_NAME="Trackers Lens API"
MAIL_INTERNAL_TO=hello@trackerslens.com

For OVH MX Plan, Laravel/Symfony must use MAIL_SCHEME=smtps for implicit SSL/TLS on port 465. The legacy MAIL_ENCRYPTION=ssl variable is not read by this app's config/mail.php.

If the OVH shared hosting cluster refuses outbound SMTP connections, use the local sendmail transport instead:

MAIL_MAILER=sendmail
MAIL_SENDMAIL_PATH="/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i"

Pending API work

  • Run the production migrations once the target database is confirmed: php artisan migrate --force.
  • Add captcha/honeypot protection if public form spam becomes a real issue.
  • Decide final public URLs for blog, roadmap, changelog, privacy policy and terms pages if they should become standalone pages instead of landing anchors.
