Getting Started

Console API provides APIs that are used for topology, access checks, and generic resource CRUD in Application console. This is a guide on how to build and run stolostron console-api.

Prerequisite Tools

• node.js version 14.x
• nvm (optional)

Building for Development

git clone https://github.com/stolostron/console-api.git
cd console-api
npm install
npm run build:production

Running locally with an OKD cluster

By default the server runs in development mode using insecure HTTP connections. To use HTTPS, you must either:

• set the environment variables serverKey and serverCert with the full path of the key and certificate files
• provide a key and certificate in the ./sslcert/consoleapi.key and ./sslcert/consoleapi.crt files

To run your local console-api code against an existing OCM installation:

1. Make sure you are logged in using oc

2. The following environment variables need to be set

   export API_SERVER_URL=`oc get infrastructure cluster -o jsonpath={.status.apiServerURL}`
   export SERVICEACCT_TOKEN=`oc whoami -t`
   

3. Start the server for production (key and certificate required for HTTPS)

   npm run start:production
   

4. Start the server for development

   npm run start
   

5. Now you can make GraphQL calls to http://localhost:4000/hcmuiapi/graphql or https://localhost:4000/hcmuiapi/graphql (depending on whether you are using secure connections) or use it with a local instance of Application UI

Building a local image

git clone https://github.com/stolostron/console-api.git
cd console-api
export COMPONENT_DOCKER_REPO=<docker_repo>
export COMPONENT_NAME=console-api
export IMAGE_TAG=<image_tag>
make install
make build
make lint
make prune
make build-image

Testing

The following will run all unit tests.

npm test

To run a particular test.

npm run test -- <test_file>


# for example
npm run test -- application.test.js
