Setup ActiveLearningStudio-API development environment on MacOSX or Linux (Fedora, RHEL, CentOS)

Install Ansible dependencies on Linux

pkcon install -y git
pkcon install -y python3
pkcon install -y python3-pip
pkcon install -y python3-virtualenv

Install Ansible dependencies on MacOSX

brew install git python gnu-tar
pip3 install virtualenv

Install the latest Python and setup a new Python virtualenv

# This step might be virtualenv-3 for you. 
virtualenv ~/python

source ~/python/bin/activate
echo "source ~/python/bin/activate" | tee -a ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc

Install the latest Ansible

pip install setuptools_rust wheel
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install ansible

Setup the project

## Setup the directory for the project and clone the git repository into it 

```bash
install -d ~/.local/src/ActiveLearningStudio-API
git clone [email protected]:team19hackathon2021/ActiveLearningStudio-API.git ~/.local/src/ActiveLearningStudio-API

Setup the Ansible Galaxy roles for installing the complete project locally.

install -d ~/.ansible/roles
git clone [email protected]:computate-org/computate_postgres.git ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_postgres
git clone [email protected]:computate-org/computate_zookeeper.git ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_zookeeper
git clone [email protected]:computate-org/computate_solr.git ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_solr
git clone [email protected]:computate-org/computate_project.git ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_project

Run the Ansible Galaxy roles to install the complete project locally.

ansible-playbook ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_postgres/install.yml -K
ansible-playbook ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_zookeeper/install.yml -K
ansible-playbook ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_solr/install.yml -K
ansible-playbook ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_project/install.yml -e SITE_NAME=ActiveLearningStudio-API -e ENABLE_CODE_GENERATION_SERVICE=true

Running the project install to override secret variables

You can also inject your own secret variables with an Ansible Vault into the project install automation if you want to override any values.

Here is an example of creating a vault directory and creating a new vault, it will ask for a password. Be sure to not commit your vault to source control, it should be ignored by default in the .gitignore file that is created in the project.

install -d ~/.local/src/ActiveLearningStudio-API/vault
ansible-vault create ~/.local/src/ActiveLearningStudio-API/vault/$USER-local

You can edit the vault, it will ask for the password.

ansible-vault edit ~/.local/src/ActiveLearningStudio-API/vault/$USER-local

You can then run the project install automation again with the secrets in the vault, it will ask for the password.

ansible-playbook ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_project/install.yml -e SITE_NAME=ActiveLearningStudio-API -e ENABLE_CODE_GENERATION_SERVICE=true -e @~/.local/src/ActiveLearningStudio-API/vault/$USER-local --vault-id @prompt

Install SquirrelSQL to connect to the Moonshots database

Setup the Ansible Galaxy roles for installing the complete project locally.

git clone [email protected]:computate-org/computate_squirrelsql.git ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_squirrelsql

Run the Ansible Galaxy roles to install the complete project locally.

ansible-playbook ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_squirrelsql/install.yml

Configure Red Hat CodeReady Studio

You can download Red Hat Code Ready Studio here:

https://developers.redhat.com/products/codeready-studio/download

You will want to create a Red Hat account if you do not already have one.

After you download CodeReady Studio, create a directory for it and install it with this command:

install -d ~/.local/opt/codereadystudio
java -jar ~/Downloads/codereadystudio-*-installer-standalone.jar

You can use the default installation settings. I suggest to install CodeReady Studio in your in $HOME/.local/opt/codereadystudio

When you run CodeReady Studio, I suggest you create your workspace here: ~/.local/src

Install these update sites:

In CodeReady Studio, go to Help -> Install New Software...

Add these update sites and install these useful plugins:

Vrapper Vim Plugin

• http://vrapper.sourceforge.net/update-site/stable
  • Choose the "Vrapper" plugin if you want to be able to edit code with Vim commands
  • Vrapper keys to unbind in Window -> Preferences -> General -> Keys:
    • ctrl+d, ctrl+u, ctrl+r, shift+ctrl+v, alt+v
  • Vrapper keys to set:
    • and search for "Vrapper" and set the keys to alt+v

DevStyle for dark theme

• http://www.genuitec.com/updates/devstyle/ci/
  • Choose "DevStyle Features" for themes

Import the ActiveLearningStudio-API project into CodeReady Studio

• In CodeReady Studio, go to File -> Import...
• Select Maven -> Existing Maven Projects
• Click [ Next > ]
• Browse to the directory: ~/.local/src/ActiveLearningStudio-API
• Click [ Finish ]

Setup a CodeReady Studio Debug/Run configuration to run and debug ActiveLearningStudio-API

In the Environment tab

Setup the following variables to setup the Vert.x verticle.

• CONFIG_PATH: ~/.local/src/ActiveLearningStudio-API/config/ActiveLearningStudio-API.yml
• VERTXWEB_ENVIRONMENT: dev

Click [ Apply ] and [ Debug ] to debug the application.

Deploy ActiveLearningStudio-API to OpenShift with Ansible

To deploy ActiveLearningStudio-API to OpenShift with Ansible, you will want to follow the instructions to install Ansible on your system first above "Install Ansible dependencies on Linux".

Setup ~/.ansible/roles directory

A default place to install Ansible roles from Ansible Galaxy is in ~/.ansible/roles. Make sure this directory exists:

install -d ~/.ansible/roles

Clone the Ansible roles for deploying the applications to OpenShift

git clone [email protected]:computate-org/computate_postgres_openshift.git ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_postgres_openshift
git clone [email protected]:computate-org/computate_zookeeper_openshift.git ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_zookeeper_openshift
git clone [email protected]:computate-org/computate_solr_openshift.git ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_solr_openshift
git clone [email protected]:computate-org/computate_project_openshift.git ~/.ansible/roles/computate.computate_project_openshift

Create an ansible vault for your OpenShift.

You can create and edit an encrypted ansible vault with a password for the host secrets for your shared OpenShift inventory to deploy ActiveLearningStudio-API. It will have you create a password when you save the file for the first time, like using vim to exit.

install -d ~/.local/src/ActiveLearningStudio-API-ansible
install -d ~/.local/src/ActiveLearningStudio-API-ansible/vaults/$USER-staging/vault
ansible-vault create ~/.local/src/ActiveLearningStudio-API-ansible/vaults/$USER-staging/vault
ansible-vault edit ~/.local/src/ActiveLearningStudio-API-ansible/vaults/$USER-staging/vault

The contents of the vault will contain the secrets needed to override any default values you want to change in the app defaults defined here.

https://github.com/team19hackathon2021/ActiveLearningStudio-API/blob/main/openshift/defaults.yml

Here is an example of a vault that I have used to deploy the ActiveLearningStudio-API application. You will want to update these values to reflect your OpenShift environment, like the REDHAT_OPENSHIFT_TOKEN which you will need to obtain after logging into OpenShift. Or the REDHAT_OPENSHIFT_STORAGE_CLASS_NAME which might be different than gp2 for you. If so, try creating a persistent volume in the UI to figure out a good storage class for your environment:

PROJECT_NAME: ActiveLearningStudio-API

REDHAT_OPENSHIFT_HOST: https://api.rh-us-east-1.openshift.com
REDHAT_OPENSHIFT_TOKEN: OcrtrXzKNKVj0riR2FvfqORgGfnURx98G8zRPd2MUvs
REDHAT_OPENSHIFT_NAMESPACE: rh-impact
REDHAT_OPENSHIFT_STORAGE_CLASS_NAME: gp2

POSTGRES_DB_NAME: sampledb
POSTGRES_DB_USER: computate
POSTGRES_DB_PASSWORD: qVTaaa23aIkLmw
POSTGRES_VOLUME_SIZE: 1Gi
POSTGRES_STORAGE_CLASS_NAME: gp2

ZOOKEEPER_VOLUME_SIZE: 1Gi
ZOOKEEPER_STORAGE_CLASS_NAME: gp2

SOLR_VOLUME_SIZE: 2Gi
SOLR_STORAGE_CLASS_NAME: gp2

AUTH_REALM: TEAM19
AUTH_RESOURCE: team19
AUTH_SECRET: 0518f65a-f86d-42e8-ad65-00f46920443d
AUTH_HOST_NAME: sso.computate.org
AUTH_PORT: 443
AUTH_SSL: true
AUTH_TOKEN_URI: "/auth/realms/RH-IMPACT/protocol/openid-connect/token"
