ONYX:MMC:ONYX Mapping Management Console/en

Introduction

The centralised console of MAPPING (Mapping Management Console : MMC) gives the possibility to monitore multiple MAPPING servers at the same time through a very intuitive Graphical User Interface.

Prerequisites

• one (or multiple) ONYX MAPPING servers installed and configured
• Install NodeJS (v14 minimum) (Node.js )

Example of installation of NodeJS oncentos :

curl -sL https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | bash - &&  yum -y install nodejs

Installation

Installation on a VM

Command of mapping-spooler-api

You use npm to installe the command

The registry npm used is private, and then requires an authentification.

Authentification

npm login --registry http://npm-registry.mappingsuite.com:4873

username : partnermappingsuite
password : (Ask MAPPING, password on LastPass : [M-S] IT> NPM Registry for Partner )
email : partner_mappingsuite@mappingsuite.com

Installation

npm install -g mapping-spooler-api --registry http://npm-registry.mappingsuite.com:4873

Configuration

one the command installed, you need to configure each ONYX server to define the HTTP porte used by the spooler APIs.

This can be done using the mapping.conf entry SPOOLER_API_PORT on each MAPPING server to monitore.

This value must be unique on each ONYX server installed on the VM.

Example

<block name="WEB CONFIG">
 <group>
  <element>
   <info name="[SPOOLER_API_PORT]">8080</info>
  </element>
 </group>
</block>

Note:These port numbers will be useful when adding the server to the MMC server interface.

starting the API service

To start the HTTP API, you simply need to run the mapping-spooler-api, while the MAPPING_PATH environmeent variable define on the desired Onyx server.

This kind be done using the mappingenv command to select the desired Onyx environment, then run the mapping-spooler-api.

Note: The mapping-spooler-api command never gives the hand back and does not have an option to run in background. To run the command in background, we do as follow :

mapping-spooler-api > /dev/null 2>&1 &

(or using tools as supervisor) The SPOOLER_API_PORT option of the mapping.conf is optionnal. If it is not present, the API will look for a environment variable PORT.

With Docker

The spooler API must absolutly be installed on the same machine as the ONYX server MAPPING.

We must therefore add the spooler API installation to the docker MAPPING ONYX image.

Example of Dockerfile

# Base Image Mapping Suite Server
FROM mappingsuite.azurecr.io/onyxserver:10.2.0
# NPM Registry Token for Authentication
ARG npm_token
# Update & Supervisor (for running Onyx + Rest API in parrallel)
RUN yum -y install epel-release && \ 
   yum -y update && \
   yum -y install supervisor
# Install NodeJS
RUN curl -sL https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | bash - && \ 
   yum -y install nodejs	
# NPM Private Registry Authentication 
RUN npm set //npm-registry.mappingsuite.com:4873//:_authToken ${npm_token}
# NPM install mapping-spooler-api with private NPM Registry
RUN npm install -g mapping-spooler-api --registry http://npm-registry.mappingsuite.com:4873
# Required env var for API REST 
ENV PORT=8080
ENV MAPPING_PATH=/apps/mapping/data/conf/mapping.conf
# Supervisor Configuration
RUN echo "[supervisord]" > /etc/supervisord.conf  && \
 echo "nodaemon=true" >> /etc/supervisord.conf  && \
 echo "[program:spooler-api]" >> /etc/supervisord.conf  && \
 echo "command=bash -c 'sleep 5 && exec mapping-spooler-api'" >> /etc/supervisord.conf  && \
 echo "[program:onyx-server]" >> /etc/supervisord.conf  && \
 echo "command=/home/docker/scripts/init.sh"  >> /etc/supervisord.conf 
EXPOSE 8080
# Run Supervisor
ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/bin/supervisord"]

This Dockerfile uses a parameter "npm_token” to authenficate itself on our npm registery.

Un token peut être obtenu par la commande suivante :

curl -s -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type:application/json" -X PUT --data '{"name": "mappingdev", "password": "PASSWORD"}'  --user mappingdev:PASSWORD http://npm-registry.mappingsuite.com:4873/-/user/org.couchdb.user:mappingdev

Construction de l’image :

docker build . -t onyxserver-api --build-arg npm_token=$TOKEN
