Daemon API
===========
This document contains detailed descriptions of the daemon's API routes. For an
overview of the daemon's API routes, see [API.md#daemon](/doc/API.md#daemon).
For an overview of all API routes, see [API.md](/doc/API.md)
There may be functional API calls which are not documented. These are not
guaranteed to be supported beyond the current release, and should not be used
in production.
Overview
--------
The daemon is responsible for starting and stopping the modules which make up
the rest of Sia. It also provides endpoints for viewing build constants.
Index

| Route | HTTP verb |
| ----------------------------------------- | --------- |
| [/daemon/constants](#daemonconstants-get) | GET |
| [/daemon/stop](#daemonstop-get) | GET |
| [/daemon/version](#daemonversion-get) | GET |
#### /daemon/constants [GET]
returns the set of constants in use.
