External services
This plugin connects to the Tides Today widget API at api.tidestoday.io to load the list of available countries, regions, and locations, and to fetch the tide and weather data needed by saved widgets.
On first use, the plugin registers this WordPress installation with the Tides Today widget API. The API returns an installation identifier and secret, which are stored in the WordPress options table and used to sign future catalog and widget data requests. This helps protect the public widget API from abuse while allowing legitimate high-traffic sites to use cached server-side requests.
When an administrator uses the widget builder, the plugin sends the selected widget language and selected location identifiers or slugs to the Tides Today service to retrieve catalog data and preview data.
When a saved widget is displayed on the public site, the plugin requests data.json from the Tides Today API for the saved language, country, region, and location so the plugin-bundled JavaScript can render current tide and weather information.
Those API requests are made from your WordPress site server to the Tides Today service. Site visitors do not receive remotely hosted executable JavaScript from Tides Today; widget rendering JavaScript and base CSS are included in this plugin. The plugin caches service responses through WordPress.
Map and weather image assets referenced by the widget data are loaded from the Tides Today CDN at https://cdn.tidestoday.media when the widget renders. These are image assets only, not executable code. This is required because it is not practical to bundle and maintain map and weather image assets for more than 8,000 supported locations inside the plugin package.
