thingful/policystore-amd64 repository overview

⁠iotpolicystore

Implementation of the policy store component for the DECODE⁠ IoT pilot.

⁠Building

Run make or make build to build our binary compiled for linux/amd64 with the current directory volume mounted into place. This will store incremental state for the fastest possible build. To build for arm or arm64 you can use: make build ARCH=arm or make build ARCH=arm64. To build all architectures you can run make all-build.

Run make container to package the binary inside a container. It will calculate the image tag based on the current VERSION (calculated from git tag or commit - see make version to view the current version). To build containers for the other supported architectures you can run make container ARCH=arm or make container ARCH=arm64. To make all containers run make all-container.

Run make push to push the container image to REGISTRY, and similarly you can run make push ARCH=arm or make push ARCH=arm64 to push different architecture containers. To push all containers run make all-push.

Run make clean to clean up.

⁠Testing

To run the test suite, use the make task: test. This will run all testcases inside a containerized environment, generating a test coverage report that can be found in .coverage/coverage.html.

⁠Using this image

As the server requires access to a postgres DB instance to persist data the simplest way to run the image locally is via docker-compose. An example compose file is shown below:

version: '3'

services:
    postgres:
        image: postgres:10-alpine
        ports:
          - "5432"
        volumes:
          - postgres_vol: /var/lib/postgresql/data
        environment:
          - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password
          - POSTGRES_USER=decode
          - POSTGRES_DB=postgres

    policystore:
        image: thingful/policystore-amd64:v0.1.0
        ports:
          - "8082:8082"
        environment:
          - POLICYSTORE_DATABASE_URL=postgres://decode:password@postgres:5432/postgres?sslmode=disable
          - POLICYSTORE_ENCRYPTION_PASSWORD=secret-password-changeme
          - POLICYSTORE_HASHID_SALT=hashid-salt-changeme
        depends_on:
          - postgres
        command: [ "server", "--verbose" ]

volumes:

⁠Configuration

The binary generated for this application is called policystore. It has the following four subcommands:

• help - displays help informmation
• migrate - allows database migrations to be created and applied
• server - the primary command that starts up the server.

For operational use the server command is the only one that is generally required.
