FOLIO compatible inventory storage module.
Provides PostgreSQL based storage to complement the inventory module. Written in Java, using the raml-module-builder and uses Maven as its build system.
- Java 8 JDK
- Maven 3.3.9
- Postgres 9.6.1 (running and listening on localhost:5432, logged in user must have admin rights)
- Node 6.4.0 (for API linting and documentation generation)
- NPM 3.10.3 (for API linting and documentation generation)
- Python 3.6.0 (for un-registering module during managed deployment scripts)
There are some common RAML definitions that are shared between FOLIO projects via Git submodules.
To initialise these please run git submodule init && git submodule update
in the root directory.
If these are not initialised, the module will fail to build correctly, and other operations may also fail.
More information is available on the developer site.
Run the setup-test-db.sh
script in the root directory to setup Postgres with a database to be used in tests.
This is only required to run tests against an external Postgres instance, the default is to use an embedded Postgres instance.
run mvn install
from the root directory.
To run the tests against both embedded and external databases, run ./build.sh
from the root directory.
Make sure that Okapi is running on its default port of 9130 (see the guide for instructions).
A script for building and running Okapi is provided. Run ../mod-inventory-storage/start-okapi.sh
from the root of the Okapi source.
As this runs Okapi using Postgres storage, some database preparation is required. This can be achieved by running ./create-okapi-database.sh
from the root of this repository.
To register the module with deployment instructions and activate it for a demo tenant, run ./start-managed-demo.sh
from the root directory.
To deactivate and unregister the module, run ./stop-managed-demo.sh
from the root directory.
Importing/ingesting of sample data is done via Okapi, so modules must be registered prior to importing.
To load some sample data run ./import-sample-data.sh
from the root directory.
These modules provide HTTP based APIs rather than any UI themselves.
As FOLIO is a multi-tenant system, many of the requests made to these modules are tenant aware (via the X-Okapi-Tenant header), which means most requests need to be made via a system which understands these headers (e.g. another module or UI built using Stripes).
Therefore, it is suggested that requests to the API are made via tools such as curl or postman, or via a browser plugin for adding headers, such as Requestly.
It is recommended that the modules are located via Okapi. Access via Okapi requires passing the X-Okapi-Tenant header (see the Okapi guide above for details).

Most of the development for these modules, thus far, has been performed on OS X, with some on Ubuntu. Feedback for these, and particularly other operating systems is very welcome.

For the modules to communicate via Okapi Proxy, when running in Docker containers, the address for Okapi Proxy needs to be routable from inside the container.
This can be achieved by passing a parameter to the script used to start Okapi, as follows ../mod-metadata/start-okapi.sh http://192.168.X.X:9130
Where 192.168.X.X is a routable IP address for the host from container instances and both repository clones are at the same directory level on your machine.
Finding the appropriate IP address can be OS and Docker implementation dependent, so this is a very early guide rather than thorough treatment of the topic.
If these methods don't work for you, please do get in touch, so this section can be improved.
On Linux, ifconfig docker0 | grep 'inet addr:'
should give output similar to inet addr:192.168.X.X Bcast:0.0.0.0 Mask:255.255.0.0
, , the first IP address is usually routable from within containers.
On Mac OS X (using Docker Native), ifconfig en0 | grep 'inet '
should give output similar to inet 192.168.X.X netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.X.X
, the first IP address is usually routable from within containers.
