This repository contains the development for the Service Platform catalogues and repositories. It holds the API implementation of SP catalogue and repos. Moreover, is is closely related to the son-catalogue repository that holds the catalogs of the SDK as well at the son-schema repository that holds the schema for the various descriptors, such as the VNFD and the NSD.
To contribute to the development of the SONATA editor, you may use the very same development workflow as for any other SONATA Github project. That is, you have to fork the repository and create pull requests.
It is recommended to use Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS (Trusty Tahr).
This code has been run on Ruby 2.1.
A connection to a MongoDB is required, this code has been run using MongoDB version 3.2.1.
Root folder provides a script "installation_mongodb.sh" to install and set up a local MongoDB, or you can use mongoexpress to manage the remote mongo databases.
Ruby gems used (for more details see Gemfile):
- Sinatra - Ruby framework
- puma - Web server
- json - JSON specification
- sinatra-contrib - Sinatra extensions
- rake - Ruby build program with capabilities similar to make
- JSON-schema - JSON schema validator
- Rest-client - HTTP and REST client
- Yard - Documentation generator tool
- mongoid-grid_fs - Implementation of the MongoDB GridFS specification
You may contribute to the editor similar to other SONATA (sub-) projects, i.e. by creating pull requests.
After cloning the source code from the repository, you can run Catalogue-Repositories with the next command:
bundle install
Which will install all the gems needed to run, or if you have docker and docker-compose installed, you can run
docker-compose up
The following shows how to start the API server for the Catalogues-Repositories:
rake start
or you can use docker-compose
docker-compose up
The Repositories' API allows the use of CRUD operations to send or retrieve records. The available records include services records (NSR) and functions records (VNFR). For testing the Repositories, you can use 'curl' tool to send a request to the API. It is required to set the HTTP header 'Content-type' field to 'application/json' or 'application/x-yaml' according to your desired format. Remember to set the IP address and port accordingly.
Method GET:
To receive all instances you can use
curl http://localhost:4011/records/nsr
curl http://localhost:4011/records/vnfr
To receive an instance by its ID:
curl -X GET http://localhost:4011/records/nsr/9f18bc1b-b18d-483b-88da-a600e9255868
curl -X GET http://localhost:4011/records/vnfr/9f18bc1b-b18d-483b-88da-a600e9255016
Method POST:
To send a record instance
curl -X POST --data-binary @test_nsr.yaml -H "Content-type:application/x-yaml" http://localhost:4011/records/nsr
curl -X POST --data-binary @test_vnfr.yaml -H "Content-type:application/x-yaml" http://localhost:4011/records/vnfr
The Catalogues' API allows the use of CRUD operations to send, retrieve, update and delete descriptors and sonata files. The available descriptors include services (NSD), functions (VNFD) and packages (PD) descriptors. The Catalogues also support storage for SONATA packages (son-packages), the binary files that contain the descriptors. For testing the Catalogues, you can use 'curl' tool to send a request descriptors to the API. It is required to set the HTTP header 'Content-type' field to 'application/json' or 'application/x-yaml' according to your desired format.
The Catalogues' API now supports API versioning. New API v2 has been introduced in release v2.0 which implements some structure changes in the descriptors. For legacy compatibility, the API v1 is supported, however it is recommended to not mix a MongoDB databse with both versions.
Method GET:
To receive all descriptors you can use
curl http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/network-services
curl http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/vnfs
curl http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/packages
To receive a descriptor by its ID:
curl http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/network-services/9f18bc1b-b18d-483b-88da-a600e9255016
curl http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/vnfs/9f18bc1b-b18d-483b-88da-a600e9255017
curl http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/packages/9f18bc1b-b18d-483b-88da-a600e9255018
Method POST:
To send a descriptor
curl -X POST --data-binary @nsd_sample.yaml -H "Content-type:application/x-yaml" http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/network-services
curl -X POST --data-binary @vnfd_sample.yaml -H "Content-type:application/x-yaml" http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/vnfs
curl -X POST --data-binary @pd_sample.yaml -H "Content-type:application/x-yaml" http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/packages
Method PUT:
To update a descriptor is similar to the POST method, but it is required that a older version of the descriptor is stored in the Catalogues
curl -X POST --data-binary @nsd_sample.yaml -H "Content-type:application/x-yaml" http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/network-services
curl -X POST --data-binary @vnfd_sample.yaml -H "Content-type:application/x-yaml" http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/vnfs
curl -X POST --data-binary @pd_sample.yaml -H "Content-type:application/x-yaml" http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/packages
Method DELETE:
To remove a descriptor by its ID
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:4011/catalogues/network-services/api/v2/9f18bc1b-b18d-483b-88da-a600e9255016
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:4011/catalogues/vnfs/api/v2/9f18bc1b-b18d-483b-88da-a600e9255017
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:4011/catalogues/packages/api/v2/9f18bc1b-b18d-483b-88da-a600e9255018
The API for SONATA packages (son-package) files works very similar to the API for the descriptors or records.
Method GET:
To receive a list of stored packages
curl http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/son-packages
To receive a package file
curl http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/son-packages/9f18bc1b-b18d-483b-88da-a600e9255000
Method POST:
To send a package file
HTTP header 'Content-Type' must be set to 'application/zip'
HTTP header 'Content-Disposition' must be set to 'attachment; filename=name_of_the_package
'
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/zip" -H "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=sonata_example.son" -F "@sonata-demo.son" "http://0.0.0.0:4011/catalogues/api/v2/son-packages"
Method DELETE:
To remove a package file by its ID
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:4011/catalogues/api/v2/son-packages/9f18bc1b-b18d-483b-88da-a600e9255000
For more information about usage of Catalogues, please visit the wikipage link below which contains some information to interact and test the Catalogues API.
- Testing the code - Inside SP Catalogue API Documentation (It currently works for SDK and SP Catalogues)
The Rakefile in root folder includes an specific task to fill the Catalogues with descriptor sample files from sonata-demo package. This is specially useful when starting an empty Catalogue. It can be run with a rake task:
rake init:load_samples[<server>]
Where <server> allows two options: 'development' or sh'integration' server deployment
An example of usage:
rake init:load_samples[integration]
The API documentation is expected to be generated with Swagger soon. Further information can be found on SONATA's wikipages link for SONATA Catalogues:
- SONATA Catalogues - SONATA Catalogues on wikipages
New API documentation in Swagger can be accessed from http://localhost:4011/api-doc while running the Catalogue server
Currently, the API is documented with yardoc and can be built with a rake task:
rake yard
From here you can use the yard server to browse the docs from the source root:
yard server
And they can be viewed from http://localhost:8808/ or you can use docker-compose and view from http://localhost:8808/
