The Idea

Scramjet Transform Hub is a cool way to run programs on your computer or in the cloud. It's easy to use, and it supports lots of different types of programs.

The Hub is the heart of Scramjet Cloud Platform, a serverless data processing system that allows you to easily deploy, run and interconnect programs that process repetitive data tasks in long-running processes. STH can be run just as well on a Raspberry Pi as it can on a massive 128 core Epyc bare metal server. It installs in one simple command and deploys your app to processes, Docker containers or Kubernetes clusters just as easily... Oh, and the apps are incredibly simple to write too, here's a slack posting sample:

export (input: Readable) => async function*() {
     for (const post of input) {
        yield await slack.note(`New post titled "${post.title}" from ${post.author}`);
     }
}

It currently supports Node.js and Python based apps, but Java and other languages are coming.

Get Scramjet Transform Hub straight from NPM

If you don't have a server ready or want to run something from the cloud itself, do check out our website and try the hosted version of Scramjet Cloud Platform.

Table of contents

Introduction :handshake:

This is a development repo for Scramjet Transform Hub, a container supervisor that allows deployment, execution and monitoring of any application based on a simple interface.

This repository contains the source code for Scramjet Transform Hub.

If you want to read more about the usage please go to Quick Start repo.

You may also be interested in our Scramjet Cloud Platform that is based on Transform-Hub.

What's more, this repository is intended for developers who would like to:

For developers who would like to simply use Scramjet Transform Hub to run data processing applications, we recommend following resources:

gh_logo Repository with Introductory README and templates

gh_logo Repository with samples

Usage :bulb:

The easiest way to start Transform Hub is to run the follow (you'll need node.js and npm installed):

npx @scramjet/sth --runtime-adapter=<docker|process|kubernetes>

Scramjet Transform Hub is a platform that helps you run programs on local and remote machines. You can start programs in the background or connect to them and see their output. You can also pipe your data to the program even if it is running on a different machine. You can install this platform in different places like AWS, Google Cloud, Azure or even your own computer.

There's no limit to what you can use it for. Do you want a stock checker? A chatbot? Maybe you'd like to automate your home? Retrieve sensor data? Maybe you have a lot of data and want to transfer and wrangle it? You have a database of cities and you'd like to enrich your data? You do machine learning and you want to train your set while the data is fetched in real-time? Or perhaps you want to use it for something else and ask us if that's a good use? Ask us via email 📧 or hop on our Scramjet Discord discord and we'll be happy to talk with you.

The basics :abcd:

NOTE: This is the STH development repo and in order to use it, you need to have Unix/Linux based operating system, for example Ubuntu or Windows with WSL2. We also use docker and node.js v16.x. We're working on development guides for Mac and Windows. 🔜

Scramjet Transform Hub allows you to deploy and execute programs that you build and develop. As mentioned above, you can run any program you like, but you need to know a couple of important things:

We hope this helps you understand the basics of STH and get started with it. If you have any questions or need help, please don't hesitate to contact us!

Development instructions :construction_worker:

This section contains more detailed installation descriptions, it is intended for developers who would like to contribute or build Transform Hub from source. If you wish to fire up STH quickly and without unnecessary installations, go to Quick Start installation section, which focuses on starting STH and deploying a sample application.

In this section we will also show you some useful commands, tools and functionalities that you can use to develop your own programs.

If you want to help out, we're happy to accept your pull requests. Please follow the below information to start development.

Installation :clamp:

Reminder: This is a development guide. In order to use it, you need to have a Unix/Linux based os (e.g. Ubuntu), docker and node.js v16.x installed. We're working on development guides for Mac and Windows. 🔜

Environment setup

There are several installations you need to perform to get STH up and running, and even more to start developing with us. You may already have some of these below installed, but we will show you how to install them anyway.

Our hub is based on node.js, so you need to install node.js and npm, which is the default package manager for node.js. To check if you already have Node.js(v16.xx.x) and npm installed, run the following commands in your console:

node -v
npm -v

If none of the above commands is found, you must proceed with the installation.

It is recommended to use a Node version manager like nvm to install Node.js and npm. Do it by running the install script using either of the commands bellow.

Note: Make sure you replace v0.39.0 with the latest version of nvm. The actual version of nvm to install is here.

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.0/install.sh | bash

wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.0/install.sh | bash

After executing the above command you should see:

nvm_installation_output

which means that you need to run those two more commands to finish the nvm installation:

export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion"

Export lines from above will be saved in your ~/.bashrc file so that you won't need to run it with every session start.

Now you are ready to install node.js, simply type in your console:

nvm install --lts    # command will install latest LTS Version of Node.js

💡 Note: The project is working on Node Long Term Support (LTS) Version, which contains Node Package Manager (NPM) in ^8.15.0 version. NodeJS in version ^17.XX.X will install NPM in version ^8.1.2 and we don't use it right now 😉.

🤓 For more info visit the node.js official webpage.

Now you can check installed versions of node.js and npm, run the following commands in your console:

$ node -v
v16.13.0

$ npm -v
8.15.0

OK! It looks like you have successfully installed node.js and npm.

There are two more installations you need to perform, run the following commands in your console one after another:

npm install -g yarn   # yarn is a package manager

installations

The same as before the installations can be confirmed by checking the installed versions:

$ yarn -v
1.22.17

OK! The installation was successful. 🎉 🎆

STH can run python packages, and for that it needs to have python and pip. These should be already installed on your system - check with:

python3 --version
pip --version

If they are not present, refer to the official installation guide for Python and Pip.

Additionally you have to have wget and jq installed:

# Debian based distributions:
apt install wget jq

# Mac
brew install wget jq

If you don't want to use Docker, please skip this step!

We also work with Docker, but this is optional. Running STH is possible without Docker in the background. If you want to use Docker, you can install it by running the following commands in your console:

On Mac u can use Docker-Desktop

# Install docker and docker-compose
sudo apt install -y docker.io docker-compose

# Verify installations by getting versions
sudo docker version
docker-compose version

# Add you user to the docker group
sudo gpasswd -a $USER docker

STH installation

There are two ways to install STH, either by getting the package from npmjs or by cloning repo.

First, let's install current STH from the npm registry -> @scramjet/sth:

npm i -g @scramjet/sth   # installs the package globally

npm_package

When you start STH from npm, no package installations or builds are required. You can start STH right away, with one of those two commands: scramjet-transform-hub or sth. This was quick, wasn't it?:D

Second way is designed for developers who want to contribute and not just use STH.

Let's clone the transform-hub repo. After that, some more installations will be required. Please copy the following commands to the terminal:

git clone https://github.com/scramjetorg/transform-hub.git && \
cd transform-hub && \
yarn install && yarn build:all && npm i -g ./dist/cli

Depending on your machine this may take some time, so it is a perfect time for another hot beverage ☕ or walk 🚶🏼‍♀️ or joggling 🤹‍♂️ or push-ups maybe..? no? Then simply wait 🧘.

In the meantime let me describe for you what is happening in the command you have just pasted into the console:

When both the package installation and build are complete, STH should be ready to run.

Start STH :checkered_flag:

STH can be started in multiple ways. The default way is to run it with Docker and on localhost and port number 8000. Choose one of the following:

If installed by cloning the repo:

yarn start               # Starts Hub after it's been built using script

yarn start:dev           # Starts Hub in development mode

If installed as npm package:

scramjet-transform-hub   # Starts Hub from installed npm package (@scramjet/sth)

sth                      # alias for scramjet-transform-hub

You can also start STH without Docker, use the same commands as above but add --no-docker flag:

yarn start --no-docker

yarn start:dev --no-docker

sth --no-docker

There is a wide range of options that you can start STH with. Please add --help or -h flag to list all the options:

yarn start --help

yarn start:dev --help

sth --help
$ sth --help
Usage: sth [options]

Options:
  -L, --log-level <level>         Specify log level (default: "debug")
  -S, --socket-path <socket>      CSI socket location
  -P, --port <port>               API port
  -H, --hostname <IP>             API IP
  -E, --identify-existing         Index existing volumes as sequences (default: false)
  -C, --cpm-url <host:ip>
  --id <id>
  --runner-image <image name>     Image used by runner
  --runner-max-mem <mb>           Maximum mem used by runner
  --prerunner-image <image name>  Image used by prerunner
  --prerunner-max-mem <mb>        Maximum mem used by prerunner
  --expose-host-ip <ip>           Host IP address that the Runner containers port is mapped to.
  --runtime-adapter <type>        Run all the instances on the given type of container or on host machine. Possible value: `process`, `docker`, `kubernetes`. Keep in mind that using `process` is UNSAFE FOR RUNNING ARBITRARY CODE.
  --sequences-root                Only works with --runtime-adapter=process option. Where should ProcessSequenceAdapter save new sequences
  -h, --help                      display help for command

Install CLI and execute :white_check_mark:

CLI installation was already done at the end of the Installation section, just before starting STH. But it is worth mentioning, that there are two ways to install the CLI:

npm i -g ./dist/cli # install CLI globally from the source folder
si --help             # show CLI commands
npm i -g @scramjet/cli # install CLI globally from npm
si --help                # show CLI commands

cli_npm

Running si --help command will confirm that the installation went properly and also to see the list of available commands:

$ si --help
Current profile: default
Usage: si [options] [command]

This is a Scramjet Command Line Interface to communicate with Transform Hub and Cloud Platform.

Options:
  -v, --version            Display current CLI version
  --config <name>          Set global configuration profile
  --config-path <path>     Set global configuration from file
  -h, --help               display help for command

Commands:
  hub                      Allows to run programs in different data centers, computers or devices in local network
  config|c                 Config contains default Scramjet Transform Hub (STH) and Scramjet Cloud Platform (SCP) settings
  sequence|seq             Operations on a Sequence package, consisting of one or more functions executed one after another
  instance|inst [command]  Operations on the running Sequence
  topic                    Manage data flow through topics operations
  completion               completion operations
  util|u                   Various utilities

To find out more about CLI, please check out our docs at https://hub.scramjet.org/docs/cli

Read more about Scramjet at https://scramjet.org/ 🚀

You can also run CLI commands from the source code using yarn start:dev:cli instead of si, in this case no installation is needed, eg.:

$ yarn start:dev:cli --version
yarn run v1.22.17

$ ts-node packages/cli/src/bin/index.ts --version
CLI version: 0.28.1

We will use CLI later on to execute the Sequence. If you would like to read more about our command line interface jump right away to CLI docs in this repo or explore CLI Reference section on our official website www.scramjet.org.

Build the packages :building_construction:

All the packages in the project need to be installed and built before they can be used.

Install will create a node_modules folder in the root of the project and in each package (dependencies will be installed).

Build will create a dist folder in the root of the project and in each package. The folder will contain the files with the code compiled into JavaScript.

This is how to perform a clean install and build of all the packages:

yarn install:clean    # this command will perform 'yarn clean && yarn clean:modules && yarn install' at once
yarn build:packages   # optionally 'build:all' if you want all dockerfiles.

build_clean

💡 HINT: For more scripts please see "scripts: {}" in main package.json.

Docker commands :whale:

During development, some artifacts may be leftover in docker. See how to clean them:

docker ps                      # list containers
docker volume prune -f         # remove all unused local volumes
docker system prune --all -f   # remove all unused images not just dangling ones
docker stop $(docker ps -a -q) # stops all running containers

*(-f) - doesn't prompt confirmation

Build Hub on Docker :building_construction:

Build from current source:

cd ./packages/sth/
yarn build:docker

Run Transform Hub in Docker :robot:

cd ./packages/sth/
docker-compose up

# or run in detached mode
docker-compose up -d
docker-compose logs -f

To run Hub without docker-compose:

docker run \
  -ti  \
  --name scramjet-hub \
  --init \
  -p 8000:8000 \
  -v /tmp/:/tmp/ \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
  scramjetorg/sth:$(jq -r .version package.json)

Monorepo commands :pencil:

We use our own scripts to control our monorepo. Here's a couple of helpful commands, which might be useful during development:

./scripts/run-script.js [script]
    # Run an npm script in each package that contains that script.
./scripts/run-script.js --scope @scramjet/<package_name> <script-name>
    # Run script only in one package
./scripts/run-script.js --workspace packages <script-name>
    # Run script in all packages in workspace

./scripts/run-script.js --help
    # Check this out for additional information

Autocomplete :zap:

Completion script depends on bash-completion so make sure it's already installed by running type _init_completion.

Below command installs completion script in ~/.bashrc.

si completion install

For immediate effect make sure to run source ~/.bashrc. Also you can manage completion script by yourself. Running si completion bash prints script to the terminal.

Git branching workflow

There are two important branches: main (representing stable version of the project) and devel (where most of the work happens; this is the default branch).

The purpose of having two branches is to keep important bugfixes separate from new features, so that a bugfix version (a release without new features, just bugfixes) can be published immediately if needed.

Sample usage :sunglasses:

"Hello World!" sample :wave:

Further actions will work only if you have properly configured your environment, installed hub and built all the packages. By this time you should already have all those things done by going through the Installation section.

💡 HINT: The following instructions apply to the state of the repository from the release/0.28.0.

sth # if installed STH as npm package

Open a new terminal window **inside transform-hub root** folder and do the following:

- Send the hello-world Sequence package to the STH and start it:
```bash
si seq send packages/hello-world.tar.gz

si seq start -      # '-' means last uploaded Sequence
si seq start <id>   # or you can specify id parameter instead

Alternatively, you can use deploy which does 3in1 - it packs (if neccessary), sends and starts the Sequence:

si seq deploy packages/hello-world.tar.gz

You should see on the STH terminal that it received the Sequence.

Let's connect to the output stream. Run this command:

si inst output -        # '-' means last uploaded Sequence
si inst output <id>     # or you can specify id parameter instead

Note that we need an instance ID, not the Sequence. If the output from previous command have been cleared on your terminal, you can still list all your Sequences and instances by running the following:

See more about streams and curl commands =>

More samples :books:

To check out more of our ready-to-go samples, please go to our Samples repo on GitHub, or to our Samples Hub.

Configure your own sample :pencil:

We have also prepared a template for you to use. You can use it as a base for your own samples 👉 sample template. For this moment we support two variants of template in two programming languages:

There is also C++ template that is still in development stage:

Troubleshooting :collision:

Docker issues:

### **Packages issues:**
Errors related to build packages
If something goes wrong during building packages, any errors occur, please try to run clean build, which will remove all `node_modules` and `dist` directories, after that you try to install and build them again. ```bash yarn clean && yarn clean:modules && yarn install && yarn build:all ```
Errors related to reference-apps package
Every reference-app package before we run it, needs to: - have `node_modules` installed (`yarn install`) - have `dist` directory created and tar.gz package created (`yarn build:refapps`) Remember to install dependencies and build your sample package before compressing it. If you create your sample in `packages/reference-apps` folder, you can use the following command to build it: ```bash yarn build:refapps ``` It will build all the packages in the `packages/reference-apps` folder.

> **💡 HINT:** Have a look at the root `package.json`, there is the `scripts` section, which contains the list of all the scripts you can run with yarn. You may find them useful.
