Django Nats NKEYS

image image image image image image image image

NATS is an infrastructure platform for building message-based services.

This Django app integrates NAT's multi-tenant account paradigm with Django Organizations.

The NATS nsc tool is used to manage operator, account, and user JWTs.

Quick start

  1. pip install django-nats-nkeys[drf]

  2. Add to your INSTALLED_APPS settings:

    INSTALLED_APPS = [
        ...
        "organizations",
        "django_extensions",
        "django_nats_nkey",
    ]
    
  3. Run python manage.py migrate to create the NATS organizationals models

  4. Run python manage.py nsc-init (optional) Initialize a new NATS operator. You are responsible for copying the generated .conf file to your NATS server. If you choose to use an existing operator, you are responsible for running nsc pull as a pre-deployment step.

Contributor's Guide

  1. Create a development environment (requires docker & docker-compose):

    make docker-up
    make nsc-init
    
  2. Run tests and generate a coverage report:

    make pytest
    
  3. Run black linter:

    make lint
    

Settings

Basic Settings

NATS_NSC_DATA_DIR (default: "/var/lib/nats/nsc/stores" or $NSC_STORE environment var) NATS_NSC_CONFIG_DIR(default: "/var/lib/nats/nsc/config" or $NSC_HOME environment var) NATS_NSC_KEYSTORE_DIR (default: "/var/lib/nats/nsc/keys" or $NKEYS_PATH environment var) NATS_SERVER_URI (default: "nats://nats:4222") NATS_NKEYS_IMPORT_DIR (default: ".nats/", ) NATS_NKEYS_EXPORT_DIR (default: ".nats/") NATS_NKEYS_OPERATOR_NAME (default: "DjangoOperator")

Retry Mode

NATS_NSC_RETRY_MODE (default "STRICT", allowed values: "STRICT" or "IDEMPOTENT")

In STRICT mode, django_nats_nkey.errors.NscConflict will be raised if nsc add ... command returns an "already exists" error. You are responsible for implementing a separate process to handle eventual consistency between Django models and nsc environment.

In IDEMPOTENT mode, conflict is logged at the WARNING level but no Exception is raised. In this mode, nsc add command may be retried many times and will be a no-op if resource already exists.
