Description

super_white is project that aims at showcase building Restfull Micro Service with Dropwizard, and deploy it to cloud with Chef.

Usage

Make sure you have a Chef server. You can use Hosted Chef Server, sign up here https://getchef.opscode.com/signup. Use VirtulBox and Vagrant (http://www.vagrantup.com/) if you want to try it out on your local machine. Sign up AWS if you want to try it out on the cloud.

Setup

Check out the code

Set environment variables (On Mac as example)

  # Chef Config
  export OPSCODE_USER="Your Chef user name, must be the same as your pem file name"
  export ORGNAME="Your Chef organization name created in Chef server"
  # AWS Config
  export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="AWS Access Key Id"
  export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="AWS Secret Access Key"
  export AWS_KEY_ID="AWS Key ID, must be the same as your key pair name"

Copy your Chef user pem file to ~/.chef/[Your Chef user name].pem Copy your Chef organization validator pem file to ~/.chef/[Your Chef organization name]-validator.pem

Test your connection to Chef server by going to 'chef' folder and using command

  knife client list

You should see something like: [organization_name]-validator

Upload cookbooks and roles to Chef server by using command in the project root folder

gradle uploadChef

or simply

gradle uC

Use VirtulBox to start a server and deploy the service

Start a new Ubuntu server in your local VirtulBox with command

vagrant up --no-color

Bootstrap the server and service with command

knife bootstrap localhost \
  --ssh-user vagrant \
  --ssh-password vagrant \
  --ssh-port 2222 \
  --run-list "role[consent_service_server]" \
  --sudo

SSH into your server after it finishes, and test it

vagrant ssh

Use AWS to start a EC2 server and deploy the service

We will try this out in us-east-1a zone at US East (N. Virginia) region. Make sure the Inbound ports for SSH and 8080, 8081 are opened for all sources in the security group you will use. Create a new key pair and download the pem file to safe place. Launch a new EC2 instance in region US East (N. Virginia), and create a AMI from it. Suppose the AMI id you created is 'AMI01' Start a EC2 instance and deploy the service.

knife ec2 server create \
  --node-name [Node Name] \
  --image AMI01 \
  --identity-file [Key pair pem file] \
  --run-list "role[consent_service_server]"

Test

After consent_service is running, you can use curl to test whether the service is running

Post Consent

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"indicator": "yes"}' http://your_server:8080/consent

Get Consent

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X GET http://your_server:8080/consent/1
