Mock Data Holder (Java)

Overview

The Mock Data Holder (Java) is a reference implementation of a CDR Data Holder solution, designed to support the Consumer Data Right (CDR) implementation journey. It aims to assist CDR participants in developing their own Data Holder (DH) systems that comply with Consumer Data Standards.

Using the Mock Data Holder

The Data Standards Body provides a docker image in the DockerHub. You can run the image on your computer to get a running instance of the Mock Data Holder (Java) without the need for a local setup. For more information, refer to the Quick Start with Docker section below.

You can also set up a local instance of this project for customised and extended use cases. For more information, refer to the Local Setup and Customisation section below.

To interact with and explore CDR APIs of the Mock Data Holder, you can use our comprehensive Postman collection. Please refer to the Using Postman to call the Data holder APIs section below for details.

This solution:

• is maintained regularly to ensure compatibility with the latest Consumer Data Standards.
• assists Data Holders with regulatory adherence through accurate request and response simulations.
• provides Docker Support to simplify deployment and testing across various environments, with ready-to-use Docker images available on DockerHub, eliminating the need for local builds.
• provides ORM (JPA) support with H2 database to demonstrate an end-to-end API endpoint implementation.
• strictly follows the CDS Guidelines for handling the request and response HTTP headers accurately.
• utilises test data generated by the Test Data CLI Tool for populating the database to mimic various real-world scenarios for thorough testing.

Quick Start with Docker

1. Run the image from DockerHub:

   docker run -p 8383:8383 consumerdatastandardsaustralia/mock-data-holder-java:x.x.x
   

   or, if you want to point to your own keystore:

   docker run -p 8383:8383 -v /your/local/path/to/mock-data-holder-java/keystore:/keystore consumerdatastandardsaustralia/mock-data-holder-java:x.x.x
   

2. If you want to pass a test data file to be loaded at start up:

   docker run -p 8383:8383 -v /your/local/path/to/testdata-cli/samples/output/u1-output.json:/testdata/u1-output.json consumerdatastandardsaustralia/mock-data-holder-java:x.x.x file:///testdata/u1-output.json
   

   or

   docker run -p 8383:8383 -v /your/local/path/to/testdata-cli/samples/output/u1-output.json:/testdata/u1-output.json consumerdatastandardsaustralia/mock-data-holder-java:x.x.x https://some.web.server/testdata/u1-output.json
   

   Where x.x.x is the version, say, 2.6.0

3. Run locally-built image:

   docker run -p 8383:8383 consumerdatastandardsaustralia/mock-data-holder-java:2.6.1-SNAPSHOT
   

Local Setup and Customisation

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed:

• Git, for cloning the repository.
• Java 8 (JDK 1.8)
• Maven 3

Installation

1. Create a fork of this repository. To do this, click the Fork button in the top right corner of the GitHub repository home page.

2. After forking the repository, clone it to your local machine. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal or command prompt:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/project-name.git

   Replace your-username with your GitHub username and project-name with the name of your repository.

3. Once the repository is cloned, navigate to the project directory by running:

   cd project-name
   

   Replace project-name with the name of the repository.

Build

1. Customise the project as needed for your specific use case.
2. Navigate to the project directory and execute the following command:

mvn install

Run

1. Start the development server by running the following command in the project directory:

   mvn spring-boot:run

   or

   java -jar target/mock-data-holder-java-x.x.x.jar
   

   Where x.x.x is the version, say, 2.6.0

   The data will be loaded from the payloads directory.

   If you want to pass a test data file to be loaded at start up:

   java -jar target/mock-data-holder-java-x.x.x.jar /your/local/path/to/testdata-cli/samples/output/u1-output.json
   

2. Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8383 to access the Mock Data Holder (Java) application. You should be able to see the Swagger UI page.

Contribution Process

We welcome contributions from the community! If you'd like to contribute to this project, please follow these simple steps:
