Test project for the implementation of a generic purpose conditions database for physics experiment. This server was generated by the swagger-codegen project. By using the OpenAPI-Spec from a remote server, you can easily generate a server stub. This project is an example of building a swagger-enabled JAX-RS server. Some tests were also done to provide a Resteasy implementation.
The prototype uses Spring framework and the REST services are implemented via Jersey.
The prototype runs as a microservice using spring-boot. By default it uses an embedded undertow servlet container, but others like tomcat or jetty can be easily used instead of undertow.
Download the project from gitlab (example below is using https):
git clone https://gitlab.cern.ch/formica/swagger_crestdb.git
This will create a directory swagger_crestdb in the location where you run the git command.
You need to have java >= 8 installed on your machine. If you have also gradle (version 5) you can build the project using the following command from the root project directory (swagger_crestdb):
gradle clean :crestdb-web:build -PwarName=crest.war
This command will generate a war (java web archive) file in : crestdb-web/build/libs/crest.war.
In case gradle is not installed on your machine, you can run the wrapper delivered with the project:
./gradlew clean :crestdb-web:build -PwarName=crest.war
This section is under maintenance.
To run the server, you can either start an embedded tomcat (or undertow) web server via spring boot, or deploy the generated war file in an existing tomcat instance. The embedded server type is specified in the crest-filter-values.properties file:
server=undertow
jaxrs=jersey
or
server=tomcat
jaxrs=jersey
The server need by definition to have a database connection in order to store the conditions data. The database connections are defined in the file ./crestdb-web/src/main/resources/application.yml. This file present different set of properties which are chosen by selecting a specific spring profile when running the server. The file should be edited if you are administering the conditions database in order to provide an appropriate set of parameters.
If you do not have any remote database available you should use the default spring profile
We provide the following commands as examples:
cd crestdb-web
$ gradle bootRun "-Dspring.profiles.active=prod" "-Dcrest.db.password=xxx"
or
$java -Dspring.profiles.active=prod -Dcrest.db.password=xxx -jar crestdb-web/build/libs/crest.war
For faster start and stop of the service we provide also a script that can be used.
./crestrun.sh start dbfilename
and
./crestrun.sh stop
For the moment the script is not very well documented, but it should be easy to configure it at your needs.
To activate security you need to build the war file including the key-store. The file should go into /src/main/resources together with a complete ldap.properties file in which you need to set the manager password. These are not detailed instructions, it is more a reminder.
java -Dstore.password=xxx -Dkey.password=yyy -Dcrest.db.password=ddd -Dcrest.dump.dir=/data/data/dump -Dcrest.web.static=/data/data/web -Dspring.profiles.active=prod -jar crestdb-web/build/libs/crest.war
The prod profile is using CERN ldap. Here is an example of ldap properties.
USER_SEARCH_BASE="DC=cern,DC=ch"
USER_DN_PATTERNS="CN={0},OU=Users,DC=cern,DC=ch"
GROUP_SEARCH_BASE="OU=e-groups,OU=Workgroups,DC=cern,DC=ch"
GROUP_SEARCH_FILTER="member={0}"
GROUP_ROLE_ATTRIBUTE=cn
MANAGER_DN="CN=formica,OU=Users,OU=Organic Units,DC=cern,DC=ch"
MANAGER_PASSWORD=xxx
LDAP_AUTHENTICATOR_URL=ldaps://cerndc.cern.ch:636
ACCESS=hasRole('atlas-database')
In order to test security you can try to use curl:
curl -k -u user:password -X GET https://localhost:8443/crestapi/globaltags
The -k should skip verification on the certificate.
In order to connect to the ldap server we need to have the truststore correctly set and with an alias corresponding to the cerndc.cern.ch certificate. Some java properties need to be set for this:
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/ssl-crest-server.jks -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=xxx -Djavax.net.debug=ssl
Be careful that the properties defined in the application.yml do not work for the truststore.
In order to add certificates to the truststore you can proceed in the following way:
echo -n | openssl s_client -connect cerndc.cern.ch:636 | sed -ne '/-BEGIN CERTIFICATE-/,/-END CERTIFICATE-/p' > /tmp/examplecert.crt
openssl x509 -in /tmp/examplecert.crt -text
This will retrieve the server side certificate of the host you want to connect to for authentication.
keytool -import -trustcacerts -keystore ./crestdb-web/src/main/resources/ssl-crest-server.jks -storepass xxxxx -noprompt -alias cern -file /tmp/examplecert.crt
This instead will add the certificate to the truststore (which in our case is the same file). The truststore has been created using a command like:
keytool -genkey -alias crest_localhost_sslserver -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 700 -keypass xxx -storepass xxxx -keystore ssl-crest-server.jks
You can view the swagger listing here (hopefully the server will be up!):
http://crest-undertow.web.cern.ch/crestapi/swagger.json
and if you want to play with the server using the swagger-ui you can access it here:
http://crest-undertow.web.cern.ch/ext/web/ui/index.html
Note that in principle you can get the same links working (a part from the hostname) if you run the server locally.
In order to regenerate the API we use the JSON schemas and templates which are store in the directories:
./swagger_schemas
./templates
To run code generation some scripts can be used as examples (./scripts).
The server stub generation is implemented as well as a gradle task:
./gradlew generateSwaggerCode
You can build a container using
docker build -t crest:1.0 .
You can run the container using
docker run --env-file .environment -p 8080:8080 -d crest:1.0
or
docker run --env-file .environment -p 8080:8080 -v /mnt/data/dump:/data/dump -v /mnt/data/web:/data/web --net=host -d crest:test
In the last example we have been mounting external volumes. These are useful for the swagger-ui and the possibility to dump a tag in a file system based structure. You can use the swagger-ui version that is provided within this project in the directory
./web/ui/
A special note about the file .environment . You need to have this file to set variables which are used at the startup of the server. Some of the variables are already provided in the version in git, but other are not. For example, to access Oracle at CERN (for the moment only integration cluster contains a crest schema) you need to have the variable crest.db.password=xxxxx correctly set for a writer account.
If you use spring.profiles.active=default you will have an h2 database created in jdbc:h2:/tmp/cresth2;DB_CLOSE_ON_EXIT=FALSE.
You can connect to a running container using commands like:
docker exec -i -t infallible_stonebraker /bin/bash
We gather here some notes on openshift deployment via gitlab-ci. These notes are for usage inside CERN.
For the moment in order for the deployment to work we need to have a public access to the gitlab project.
After committing a tag it seems that the deploy to openshift fails. TO BE DONE.
