xreg-github

Implementation of the xRegistry spec.

Still a long way to go.

To run it:

# You need to have Docker installed

# Build, test and run the xreg server (creates a new DB each time):
$ make

or to use existing DB (no tests):
$ make start

Try it:

# In a browser go to:
  http://localhost:8080?ui

# Or just:
$ curl http://localhost:8080
$ curl http://localhost:8080?inline

# To run a mysql client to see the DBs (debugging):
$ make mysql-client

Developers

See misc/Dockefile-dev for the minimal things you'll need to install. Useful Makefile targets:

- make              : build, test and run the server locally
- make all          : build, test and run the server locally
- make run          : build the exes and run it (no tests)
- make test         : build the exes and run tests, don't run
- make clean        : erase all build artifacts, stop mysql. Basically, reset
- make image        : build the all Docker images
- make push         : push the Docker images to DockerHub
- make mysql        : just start mysql as a Docker container
- make mysql-client : run the mysql client, for testing
- make testdev      : build a dev docker image, and build/test/run everything
                      to make sure the minimal dev install requirements
                      haven't changed

OLD TODO:

• Move the logic that takes the Path into account for the query into GenerateQuery
• Make sure that the Path entity is always in the result set when filtering
• twiddle the self and XXXUrls to include proper filter and inline stuff
• see if we can get rid of the recursion stuff
• should we add "/" to then end of the Path for non-collections, then we can just look for PATH/% and not PATH + PATH/%
• can we set the registry's path to "" instead of NULL ?? already did, test it
• add support for boolean types (set/get/filter)

TODOs:

• add tests for multiple registries at the same time

• test filtering for (non)empty values - e.g. filter=id= filter=id

  • empty complex types too

• test for filtering case-insensitive string compares

• test for filtering with string being part of value

• test for exact match of numerics, bools

• add complex filters testcases

• copy all of the types tests in http from Reg to groups, resources and vers

• test to make sure an ID in the body == ID in URL for reg and group

• test to ensure we can do 2 tx at the same time

• need to decide on the best tx isolation level

• add http test for maxVersions (already have non-http tests)

• see if we can prepend Path with / or append it with /

• see if we can remove all uses of JustSet except for the few testing cases where we need to set a property w/o verifying/saving it

  • Just see if we can clean-up the Set... stuff in general

• convert internal errors into "panic" so any "error" returned is a user error

• see if we can move "#resource??" into the attributes struct

• fix it so that a failed call to model.Save() (e.g. verify fails) doesn't invalidate existing local variables. See if we can avoid redownloading the model from the DB

• make sure we check for uniqueness of IDs - they're case insensitive and unique within the scope of their parent

• make sure we throw an error if ?specversion on HTTP requests specifies the wrong version

• pagination

• have DB generate the COLLECTIONcount attributes so people can query over them and we don't need the code to calculate them (can we due to filters?)

• add checks for valid obj/map key names in new validation funcs ****

• support overriding spec defined attributes - like "format"

• support changing the model - test for invalid changes

• add tests for immutable attributes

• support the resource sticky/default attributes

  • remove ?setdefault.. for some apis
  • process ?setdefaultversionid flag before we update things
  • make sure we support them as http headers too

• support createdat and modifiedat as http headers

• make sure we don't let go http add "content-type" header for docs w/o a value

• add support for PUT / to update the model

• add model tests for typemap - just that we can set via full model updates

• support the DB vanishing for a while

• create an UpdateDefaultVersion func in resource.go to move it from http logic

• support ?export

• test xref more

• support readonly - remove resource.readonly

• remove "readonly" attribute from model Resources, add to Resource

• format is optional in schema spec

• s/format/envelope/

• s/message/protocoloptions/

• s/binding/protocol/

• add envelopeoptions and envelopmetadata

• allow $meta on hasdoc=false resources

• add "validation" attribute - schema

• error w/o ?nested + children

• Add content-disposition header for hasdoc resources

• s/?resource/?attrib support

• make sure ID only has valid chars

• inline=model, requires ?nested. Make sure /meta requires ?nested too

• meta sub-object

• $meta -> $structure

• remove "location" model attribute

• remove ?resource ?attrib

• add "compatibility" to resources

• multi-delete must ignore all attributes except id and epoch
