To get started quickly you need docker and docker-compose.
Before you start please install all required dependencies using:
npm ci
Start the PostgreSQL database and Adminer using:
npm run docker:start:pg
It will use the latest available PostgreSQL Docker container. If you want to test with PostgreSQL 11 then run:
npm run docker:start:pg:11
Now deploy the database schema with the command:
npm run deploy:pg
The deploy will automatically load any data which is made available via local CSV files. If you run into any issue there make sure that no .env file is present in the root folder of this project like it would be needed if you want to run the docker image.
Then open http://localhost:8080/ and login by selecting System PostgreSQL, Server: beershop-postgresql, Username postgres and Password postgres. The database postgres should already exist as you've just deployed it and the tables should contain data.
Now you can start the CAP application by using:
cds watch --profile pg
Then open http://localhost:4004/odata/v4/beershop/Beers in the browser and you should see an ODATA response with 11 beers:
{
"@odata.context": "$metadata#Beers",
"value": [
{
"ID": "b8c3fc14-22e2-4f42-837a-e6134775a186",
"name": "Lagerbier Hell",
"abv": 5.2,
"ibu": 12,
"brewery_ID": "9c937100-d459-491f-a72d-81b2929af10f"
},
{
"ID": "9e1704e3-6fd0-4a5d-bfb1-13ac47f7976b",
"name": "Schönramer Hell",
"abv": 5,
"ibu": 20,
"brewery_ID": "fa6b959e-3a01-40ef-872e-6030ee4de4e5"
},
...
]
}To stop the docker containers run either
npm run docker:stop:pg
or npm run docker:stop:pg:11.
We're using the mbt build to create a mtar that can be deployed to the SAP CP Cloud Foundry. The build ist started with:
npm run build:cf
login to Cloud Foundry with:
cf login --sso
then you can deploy with:
npm run deploy:cf
Until SAP will provide a fully managed PostgreSQL DB you need to provide your on PostgreSQL DB. One way is to install a Open Service Broker. The page Compliant Service Brokers lists brokers supporting AWS, Azure and GCP. The SAP Developers Tutorial Mission Use Microsoft Azure Services in SAP Cloud Platform describes in great detail how to setup the Service Broker for Azure. When you finished this setup you can run:
npm run create-service:pg:dbms
to instantiate a PostgreSQL DBMS. Then run:
npm run create-service:pg:db
to create a the beershop database in the DBMS. With that operation done you can build the MTA by running:
npm run build:cf
That MTA can be deployed using:
npm run deploy:cf
The created database is empty. As currently no deploy script is available the needed tables and views for the CAP application need to be created before you can run the application. The easiest way to create the tables and views is to use Adminer as for the local deployment. You can get the credentials by opening the pg-beershop-srv application via the SAP Business Technology Platform Cockpit. Navigate to the Service Bindings and click on "Show sensitive data". Enter the data in the corresponding fields of the Adminer login screen. Execute the SQL commands you find in beershop.sql. To fill the database with data also execute the ones in beershop-data.sql. Now try out the URL you find in the Overview of the pg-beershop-srv application.
To test with an external PostgreSQL created an Azure Database for PostgreSQL flexible server. Via the Azure portal add the database beershop. Then checkout the branch user-provided-service and create default-azure-ups-env.json with the following content:
{
"username": "<your user>",
"password": "<your password>",
"hostname": "<your hostname>",
"dbname": "beershop",
"port": "5432",
"ssl": true
}
Now you can build and deploy as described above.
If you want to build your own docker image replace gregorwolf in package.json and deployment/beershop.yaml with your own hub.docker.com account. Then run:
npm run build:docker
To test the image locally you have to create a .env file that provides the environment variable VCAP_SERVICES which contains the connection information. Fill it with the following content:
VCAP_SERVICES={"docker-postgres":[{"name":"postgres","label":"postgres","tags":["plain", "db", "relational", "database"],"credentials":{"host":"beershop-postgresql","port":"5432","database":"beershop","user":"postgres","password":"postgres"}}]}
Then run:
npm run docker:run:srv
If you stopped this docker container you can start it again with
npm run docker:start:srv
to start the image gregorwolf/pg-beershop:latest from hub.docker.com. If you want to run your own image run che command you find in package.json with your image. Finally publish the created image with:
npm run push:docker
Download the kubeconfig from your Kyma instance via the download icon in the cluster overview. Save it in ~/.kube/kubeconfig-kyma.yml. Then run:
export KUBECONFIG=~/.kube/kubeconfig-kyma.yml
Please note that the token in the kubeconfig is only valid for 8 hours. So you might have to redo the download whenever you want to run the commands again.
To keep this project separate from your other deployments I would suggest to create a namespace:
kubectl create namespace pg-beershop
To avoid -n pg-beershop with each kubectl command you can run:
kubectl config set-context --current --namespace=pg-beershop
Deploy the configuration:
kubectl -n pg-beershop apply -f deployment/beershop.yaml
To create the beershop database a Job is used that starts once when you run the apply. Afterward you can delete the job with:
kubectl -n pg-beershop delete job beershop-db-init
For troubleshooting you can SSH into the CAP container:
kubectl -n pg-beershop exec $(kubectl -n pg-beershop get pods -l tier=frontend -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}') -t -i /bin/bash
Before you can update the container you have to delete the beershop-db-init.
kubectl -n pg-beershop delete job beershop-db-init
Then you can run:
kubectl -n pg-beershop rollout restart deployment/beershop
If you want to delete the deployment, then run:
kubectl -n pg-beershop delete -f deployment/beershop.yaml
Install Azure CLI for your respective OS.
Before you can use the CLI you have to login:
az login
If you have multiple account you have to list them:
az account list
and then set the one you want to use:
az account set --subscription <Your-Subscription-ID>
With the command:
az account list-locations -o table
you can retrieve the list of locations and select the one fitting your needs best. You can configure the default settings for location and groups:
az config set defaults.location=germanywestcentral defaults.group=beershop
To deploy a PostgreSQL the extension db-up needs to be installed:
az extension add --name db-up
Set the environment variables:
export postgreservername=<yourServerName>
export adminpassword=<yourAdminPassword>Then the PostgreSQL server and database can be created:
az postgres up --resource-group beershop --location germanywestcentral --sku-name B_Gen5_1 --server-name $postgreservername --database-name beershop --admin-user beershop --admin-password $adminpassword --ssl-enforcement Enabled --version 11
If you want to use this database from your own location or from SAP Business Technology Platform Trial in eu10 then you have to add a firewall rule. Based on the information found in SAP Business Technology Platform Connectivity - Network I add the following rule:
az postgres server firewall-rule create -g beershop -s $postgreservername -n cfeu10 --start-ip-address 3.122.0.0 --end-ip-address 3.124.255.255
Store the DB connection information in default-env.json. It must contain the certificate for the TLS connection documented in Configure TLS connectivity in Azure Database for PostgreSQL - Single Server. The format must be the following:

}Connect to the database as described in the last paragraph of Run on SAP Business Technology Platform.
Store the file content in the environment variable VCAP_SERVICES (jq must be installed):
export VCAP_SERVICES="$(cat default-env.json | jq .VCAP_SERVICES)"
Now create the app service plan:
az appservice plan create --name beershop --resource-group beershop --sku F1 --is-linux
Check out what Node.JS runtime is available:
az webapp list-runtimes --linux
Then create the web app:
az webapp create --resource-group beershop --plan beershop --name beershop --runtime "NODE:16-lts"
Configure an environment variable the variable created before:
az webapp config appsettings set --name beershop --resource-group beershop --settings VCAP_SERVICES="$VCAP_SERVICES"
Now you can publish the app using the Azure DevOps Pipeline.
To delete the database you can run:
az postgres server delete --resource-group beershop --name beershop
You have to confirm the execution with y.
Install Google Cloud SDK for your resprective OS. Then work through the Quickstart for Node.js in the standard environment to deploy
gcloud app create
Store the environment variable in env_variables.yaml:
env_variables:
VCAP_SERVICES: '{}'This file is included in app.yaml.
You can use the neon.tech Serverless Postgres to run the beershop. Get the credentials after you've created a project and database. The connection information is stored in the .cdsrc-private.json file:
"requires": {
"[pg]": {
"db": {
"kind": "postgres",
"credentials": {
"host": "yourHost",
"port": 5432,
"user": "yourUser",
"password": "yourPassword",
"database": "beershop",
"ssl": true
}
}
}
}Install Heroku CLI for your respective OS. Then follow the instruction provided in the Deploying with Git guide to deploy from this repository.
You can also create a new pipeline or application from the Heroku website and bound it to an existing git repository. This should enable you to deploy directly from your repository on every completed pull requests on the main branch.
Start by creating a new app and remote repository on heroku by issuing this command:
heroku create -a pg-beershop
Heroku Postgres is a managed SQL database service provided directly by Heroku. You can access a Heroku Postgres database from any language with a PostgreSQL driver, including all languages officially supported by Heroku.
In order to provision your application with an Heroku Postgres db you have to run the following command from the CLI
heroku addons:create heroku-postgresql:<your_plan>
For the first test use
heroku addons:create heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev
When correctly issued this command logs the name of the newly created db instance in the console.
You can find information about plans and pricing at this link.
The best way to deploy the database schema to your heroku app db is to create it locally, using the procedure provided in the local setup section of this guide, and then push it on the remote db using the following commands:
PGHOST=localhost PGUSER=postgres PGPASSWORD=postgres heroku pg:push beershop <remote_db_name>;
In order for this method to work you need to install psql locally. You can find more informations on this topic following you'll need to setup the psql command line as stated in this link.
Note that you don't need a running pgsql instance on your machine for this to work. You can use the psql client with the dockerized instance provided in this repository.
The entry point of every heroku application is the Procfile. Through this file you can specify the starting script of your application.
Credentials for Heroku Postgres are periodically rotated by the system. An environment variable, called DATABASE_URL is provided to your application and is automatically updated on each credentials change. For this reason, you cannot use the static xml configuration provided in the package.json file, but you need to inject the connection string at runtime through the Procfile start command.
web: export cds_requires_database_credentials_connectionString=$DATABASE_URL && cds run --profile heroku
We used the profile feature in order to provide specific information for the heroku environment and suppress unwanted features from the package.json file (eg. xsuaa).
We also created a heroku-postbuild script to override the default build command when deployed to heroku (not required in this version).
"database": {
"dialect": "plain",
"impl": "cds-pg",
"model": [
"srv"
],
"credentials": {
"[heroku]": {
"ssl": {
"rejectUnauthorized": false
}
}
}
}, "heroku-postbuild": "echo heroku postbuild skipped"In this example, we used a custom handler to mock the user authentication in the heroku environment. You can follow the guides regarding authentication on the capire website to implement your own method, or reuse the built-in jwt or basic authentication.
// XSUAA doesn't work in heroku environment, so you should provide your own authentication handler and strategy
// in this example, no auth method is provided
module.exports = (req, res, next) => {
req.user = new cds.User.Privileged();
return next();
};To deploy the application on heroku run the command:
git push heroku main
You should now be able to open the beershop example from the heroku website.
Right now, due to limitations in the current cds-dbm library, is not possible to use the heroku release phase to automatically update the database schema on release. Will fix this when the new version of the deployer library is released.
When you run:
npm run compile:tosql
the CDS model will be compiled to the beershop-cds.sql file. Using the script cdssql2pgsql.js this SQL is converted to support PostgreSQL. Currently only the datatype NVARCHAR must be replaced with VARCHAR.
The path db/data is mounted to the docker container at /tmp/data. That allows to run the COPY commands generated at the end of beershop.sql.
Running the jest test with npm test currently fails with:
Failed: Object {
"code": -20005,
"message": "Failed to load DBCAPI.",
"sqlState": "HY000",
"stack": "Error: Failed to load DBCAPI.when running the standalone script node test/test-db.js that uses the same way to connect everything is OK.
Right now for the Kyma deployment the schema must be updated manually. Using Liquibase in Kubernetes describes the use of Init Containers in K8n. I think the Docker image timbru31/java-node:11-erbium should be a good basis.
