NAME

Perl5::CoreSmokeDB - API server for the VueJS frontend Perl5-CoreSmokeDB-Web

DESCRIPTION

This software is the backend for the Single Page Application frontend written in VueJS 3.

DEPLOYING

Details of the live deploy setup for https://perl5.test-smoke.org/

INSTALLING LOCALLY

Basic installation for try-out:

git clone https://github.com/abeltje/Perl5-CoreSmokeDB-API.git
cd Perl5-CoreSmokeDB-API
carton install
carton exec -- local/bin/plackup -s Starman bin/app.psgi -E try-out --port 5050

On a clean Ubuntu 22.04 install you will also need these packages before you start: build-essential cpanminus carton sqlite3 libpq-dev libxml2-dev libexpat1-dev jq

THE API

The api supports 2 protocols: REST and JSONRPC. This document shows some examples of both, The complete interface is to be found in the lib/Perl5/CoresSmokeDB/API/ directory.

Example: server status

curl -s -XGET http://localhost:5050/system/status | jq

Example: application versions

curl -s -XGET http://localhost:5050/api/version | jq

or with JSONRPC:

curl -s -XPOST -H'Content-type: application/json' http://localhost:5050/api \
  -d'{"jsonrpc":"2.0", "id":"request42", "method":"version"}' | jq

Example: the latest report for each host

curl -s -XGET http://localhost:5050/api/latest | jq -C | less -R

Example: search results

curl -s -XGET 'http://localhost:5050/api/searchresults?selected_arch=amd64&selected_osnm=MSWin32' \
  | jq -C | less -R

or with JSONRPC:

curl -s -XPOST -H'Content-type: application/json' http://localhost:5050/api \
  -d'{"jsonrpc":"2.0", "id":"request42", "method":"searchresults", "params":
  {"selected_arch":"amd64","selected_osnm":"MSWin32"}}' | jq -C | less -R

Example: post report (from existing json)

If one is running the Test::Smoke-suite, one will have an archive of jsn<git-sha>.jsn files that can be used to post to the database. For this example I'll call the json-file mktest.jsn.

curl -s -XPOST -H'Content-type: application/json' http://localhost:5050/api/report \
  -d"{"\""report_data"\"":$(cat mktest.json)}" | jq

Example: get the OpenAPI/Swagger YAML

curl -s -XGET http://localhost:5050/api/openapi/web | less

DATABASE

Deploy the database schema

For the try-out, we use a SQLite database, but the software also supports PostgreSQL, just set the dsn and user information in this perl statement:

carton exec -- perl -MPerl5::CoreSmokeDB::Schema -wE \
    'my $s = Perl5::CoreSmokeDB::Schema->connect(
      "dbi:Pg:dbname=coresmokedb;host=dbserver","coresmokedb","Secret++",{ignore_version => 1}
    );
    $s->deploy'

Change the environments/try-out.yml configuration

Change the plugins.DBIC section:

plugins:
  DBIC:
    # keep the try_out section
    postgresql: &pg
      schema_class: Perl5::CoreSmokeDB::Schema
      dsn: 'dbi:Pg:dbname=coresmokedb;host=dbserver'
      user: coresmokedb
      password: Secret++
      options:
        RaiseError: 1
        PrintError: 1
    default: *pg
