ubc/iPeer - Githubissues

Please note that with MySQL 5.7 and later, the default sql_mode has been changed. Please make sure the following modes are disabled: ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY, STRICT_TRANS_TABLES, NO_ZERO_IN_DATE, and NO_ZERO_DATE.

Quick Start

If you have docker and docker-compose environment setup on your machine, you can start running iPeer for testing / development quickly by following these steps.

# get the source
git clone https://github.com/ubc/iPeer.git

# change to iPeer directory
cd iPeer

# optionally, checkout the version you wanted to run
# git checkout tags/3.4.4

# pull git submodules
git submodule update --init --recursive

# use the default database config
cp app/config/database.php.default app/config/database.php 

# pull images and start containers
docker-compose pull && docker-compose up -d

# open a shell into the app container
docker exec -it ipeer_app bash
# within the container, install any missing packages
composer install
# exit the container
exit

# on host, change the permission of tmp folders
chmod -R 777 app/tmp
# restart containers
docker-compose restart

Launch a browser and go to http://localhost:8080/ to continue the initial setup.

Running with Docker

Prerequisites

Internet connection
Docker engine and docker-compose installed

Running

Pulling images

Note: if you are planning to do development, you can skip this step.

docker pull ubcctlt/ipeer-app

Edit docker-compose.yml

Edit the docker-compose.yml file and choose the browser for integration tests

- SELENIUM_HOST=selenium-local
- SELENIUM_BROWSER=chrome
#- SELENIUM_BROWSER=firefox

Running iPeer

Note: if you are planning to develop iPeer and did not run docker pull with above commands, you will need to run composer install to install the dependencies and generate database configuration file.

docker-compose up -d

Running iPeer unit tests

Running unit tests within docker containers with phing requires additional libraries to be installed. This can be done by building the ipeer-app image with Dockerfile-app-unittest which is specific for running test cases:
- If the containers are up, stop them by running docker-compose down
- Rebuild the ipeer-app image with the command docker-compose build --no-cache app-unittest
- Start the containers by running docker-compose up -d
To run the unit tests on containers:
- On host, run an interactive shell in the unit test app container: docker exec -it ipeer_app_unittest bash
- In the interactive shell, while at /var/www/html, run the command vendor/bin/phing test

Running integration tests

Install PHP Webdriver (https://github.com/Element-34/php-webdriver) and Sausage (https://github.com/jlipps/sausage) under vendors directory. These are defined as submodules and can be updated by:
```
git submodule init
git submodule update
```

Setup ubc/docker-canvas container (https://github.com/ubc/docker-canvas). Also create a network bridge to connect the Canvas app and iPeer app containers together

docker network create canvas_ipeer_network
docker network connect canvas_ipeer_network ipeer_app
docker network connect canvas_ipeer_network ipeer_app_unittest
docker network connect canvas_ipeer_network docker-canvas_app_1

Run the Selenium + Firefox (or Chrome) container (need to disable the passthrough feature):

docker run -d -p 4444:4444 -e SE_OPTS="-enablePassThrough false" -e TZ="Canada/Pacific" --name selenium-local --shm-size 2g selenium/standalone-firefox:3.7.1-argon

docker run -d -p 4444:4444 -e SE_OPTS="-enablePassThrough false" -e TZ="Canada/Pacific" --name selenium-local --shm-size 2g selenium/standalone-chrome:3.7.1-argon

Or, if needed to see the browser actions, run the debug image instead and expose the VNC server port 5900 to host:

docker run -d -p 4444:4444 -p 5900:5900 -e SE_OPTS="-enablePassThrough false" -e TZ="Canada/Pacific" --name selenium-local --shm-size 2g selenium/standalone-firefox-debug:3.7.1-argon

docker run -d -p 4444:4444 -p 5900:5900 -e SE_OPTS="-enablePassThrough false" -e TZ="Canada/Pacific" --name selenium-local --shm-size 2g selenium/standalone-chrome-debug:3.7.1-argon

To view the browser, run VNC viewer on host (the default password is secret), e.g.: vncviewer localhost::5900

To view the WebDriver Hub status, open the following URL on the host:

http://localhost:4444/wd/hub

Create a network bridge to connect iPeer, Canvas, and Selenium together

docker network create canvas_ipeer_network_it
docker network connect canvas_ipeer_network_it ipeer_app_unittest
docker network connect canvas_ipeer_network_it ipeer_web_unittest
docker network connect canvas_ipeer_network_it docker-canvas_app_1
docker network connect canvas_ipeer_network_it selenium-local

To start the integration test, run an interactive shell in the test app container and run the commands in container, e.g.:

docker exec -it ipeer_app_unittest bash    # start an interactive shell to run the following commands
vendor/bin/phing init-test-db    # preload iPeer db with sample data
cake/console/cake -app app testsuite app group system    # run all system test cases
cake/console/cake -app app testsuite app case system/studentSimple    # run a specific test case

Running Virtual Development Server

Virtual Environment Setup:

Install VirtualBox at http://virtualbox.org
Install Vagrant at http://www.vagrantup.com/downloads

Go to the iPeer root directory in the terminal. Then run the following commands:

git submodule init
git submodule update
vagrant box add ipeerbox http://developer.nrel.gov/downloads/vagrant-boxes/CentOS-6.4-x86_64-v20130731.box
vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest
vagrant up

Go to localhost:2000 in your browser.

Using a different port (the port number must be available on both the virtual and host environment):

change the line in file puppet/dev.pp from
```
port => 2000,
```
to (eg. port 8888)
```
port => 8888,
```
AND change the line in file app/tests/cases/controllers/v1_controller.test.php from
```
$server = 'http://localhost:2000';
```
to
```
$server = 'http://localhost:8888';
```

Running Tests:

Go to the iPeer root directory. Then run the following commands vagrant ssh cd /var/www phing test

For more vagrant commands go to http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/cli/index.html.

Running Tests

Integration Tests

Requirements:

Selenium Server 2.38+
PHP Webdriver (https://github.com/Element-34/php-webdriver)
Firefox

Runing the tests:

cd iPeer
cake/console/cake -app app testsuite app group system

It is better not to touch the mouse or keyboard during the tests.

Configuring Caliper

In order to enable Caliper, both CALIPER_HOST and CALIPER_API_KEY must be set.

CALIPER_HOST: Set the Caliper LRS url.

CALIPER_API_KEY: API key for sending Caliper events to the LRS.

CALIPER_BASE_URL: Optionally set a base url to use for all events. This is useful to help keep statement urls consistent if the url of your instance changes over time or is accessible though different routes (ex http+https or multiple sub-domains). (Uses base url of request by default).

You may optionally override the user default IRI (from $base_url/users/view/$user_id) to something more identifiable when setting both CALIPER_ACTOR_BASE_URL and CALIPER_ACTOR_UNIQUE_IDENTIFIER_PARAM.

CALIPER_ACTOR_BASE_URL: Optionally set the actor's homepage to something else. This will be string formated to allow CALIPER_ACTOR_UNIQUE_IDENTIFIER_PARAM to be inserted into it (use %s where you want the unique identifier to appear). ex: http://www.ubc.ca/%s

CALIPER_ACTOR_UNIQUE_IDENTIFIER_PARAM: Optionally set the actor's unique identifier using any column from the user table (ex: username, id, email). Will be inserted into the CALIPER_ACTOR_BASE_URL string.
