Ghga Event Schemas

GHGA Event Schemas: A package that collects schemas used for events exchanged between GHGA service.

Description

This package contains a collection of Pydantic-based models used to provide type-checked and validated event schemas.

Installation

We recommend using the provided Docker container.

A pre-build version is available at docker hub:

docker pull ghga/ghga-event-schemas:3.3.1

Or you can build the container yourself from the ./Dockerfile:

# Execute in the repo's root dir:
docker build -t ghga/ghga-event-schemas:3.3.1 .

For production-ready deployment, we recommend using Kubernetes, however, for simple use cases, you could execute the service using docker on a single server:

# The entrypoint is preconfigured:
docker run -p 8080:8080 ghga/ghga-event-schemas:3.3.1 --help

If you prefer not to use containers, you may install the service from source:

# Execute in the repo's root dir:
pip install .

# To run the service:
ghga_event_schemas --help

Configuration

  Examples:

  "germany-bw-instance-001"
  

• log_format: If set, will replace JSON formatting with the specified string format. If not set, has no effect. In addition to the standard attributes, the following can also be specified: timestamp, service, instance, level, correlation_id, and details. Default: null.

  • Any of

    • string

    • null

  Examples:

  "%(asctime)s - Severity: %(levelno)s - %(msg)s"
  

• host (string): IP of the host. Default: "127.0.0.1".

• port (integer): Port to expose the server on the specified host. Default: 8080.

• auto_reload (boolean): A development feature. Set to True to automatically reload the server upon code changes. Default: false.

• workers (integer): Number of workers processes to run. Default: 1.

• api_root_path (string): Root path at which the API is reachable. This is relative to the specified host and port. Default: "".

      "https://example.org",
      "https://www.example.org"
  ]
  

• cors_allow_credentials: Indicate that cookies should be supported for cross-origin requests. Defaults to False. Also, cors_allowed_origins cannot be set to ['*'] for credentials to be allowed. The origins must be explicitly specified. Default: null.

  • Any of

    • boolean

    • null

  Examples:

  [
      "https://example.org",
      "https://www.example.org"

    • array

      • Items (string)

    • null

  Examples:

  [

• cors_allowed_headers: A list of HTTP request headers that should be supported for cross-origin requests. Defaults to []. You can use ['*'] to allow all headers. The Accept, Accept-Language, Content-Language and Content-Type headers are always allowed for CORS requests. Default: null.

  • Any of

    • array

      • Items (string)

    • null

  Examples:

  []
  

• generate_correlation_id (boolean): A flag, which, if False, will result in an error when inbound requests don't possess a correlation ID. If True, requests without a correlation ID will be assigned a newly generated ID in the correlation ID middleware function. Default: true.

  Examples:

  true
  

  false
  

• language (string): The language. Must be one of: ["Greek", "Croatian", "French", "German"]. Default: "Croatian".

Usage:

A template YAML for configurating the service can be found at ./example-config.yaml. Please adapt it, rename it to .ghga_event_schemas.yaml, and place it into one of the following locations:

• in the current working directory were you are execute the service (on unix: ./.ghga_event_schemas.yaml)
• in your home directory (on unix: ~/.ghga_event_schemas.yaml)

The config yaml will be automatically parsed by the service.

Important: If you are using containers, the locations refer to paths within the container.

All parameters mentioned in the ./example-config.yaml could also be set using environment variables or file secrets.

For naming the environment variables, just prefix the parameter name with ghga_event_schemas_, e.g. for the host set an environment variable named ghga_event_schemas_host (you may use both upper or lower cases, however, it is standard to define all env variables in upper cases).

To using file secrets please refer to the corresponding section of the pydantic documentation.

Architecture and Design:

This is a Python-based service following the Triple Hexagonal Architecture pattern. It uses protocol/provider pairs and dependency injection mechanisms provided by the hexkit library.

Development

For setting up the development environment, we rely on the devcontainer feature of VS Code in combination with Docker Compose.

To use it, you have to have Docker Compose as well as VS Code with its "Remote - Containers" extension (ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers) installed. Then open this repository in VS Code and run the command Remote-Containers: Reopen in Container from the VS Code "Command Palette".

This will give you a full-fledged, pre-configured development environment including:

• infrastructural dependencies of the service (databases, etc.)
• all relevant VS Code extensions pre-installed
• pre-configured linting and auto-formatting
• a pre-configured debugger
• automatic license-header insertion

Moreover, inside the devcontainer, a convenience commands dev_install is available. It installs the service with all development dependencies, installs pre-commit.

The installation is performed automatically when you build the devcontainer. However, if you update dependencies in the ./pyproject.toml or the ./requirements-dev.txt, please run it again.
