Introduction

The atf gen report init service is a lambda which is used to generate atf reports.

Dependencies

The project runs on node >10 with typescript and serverless framework. For further details about project dependencies, please refer to the package.json file. nvm is used to managed node versions and configuration explicitly done per project using an .npmrc file.

Prerequisites

Please install and run the following securiy programs as part of your development process:

• git-secrets After installing, do a one-time set up with git secrets --register-aws. Run with git secrets --scan.

• repo-security-scanner

These will be run as part of your projects hooks so you don't accidentally introduce any new security vulnerabilities.

You will also require Docker to run the service locally if you wish to mock external dependencies.

All in one view

ATF report gen microservice

More information about technical designs can be found under the atf report gen section.

Getting started

Set up your nodejs environment running nvm use and once the dependencies are installed using npm i, you can run the scripts from package.json to build your project. This code repository uses serverless framework to mock AWS capabilities for local development.

Environmental variables

• The BRANCH environment variable indicates in which environment is this application running. Not setting this variable will result in defaulting to local.

Scripts

• Building the docker image - npm run build:docker
• Building with source maps - npm run build:dev
• Building without source maps - npm run build

Running

• The S3 server can be started by running npm run start:docker.
• The app can be started by running npm run start

Configuration

The configuration file can be found under src/config/config.yml. Environment variable injection is possible with the syntax: ${BRANCH}, or you can specify a default value: ${BRANCH:local}.

Lambda Invoke

The invoke configuration contains settings for both the local and the remote environment. The local environment contains configuration for the Lambda Invoke local endpoint, as well as configuration for loading mock JSON response.

invoke:
  local:
    params:
      apiVersion: 2015-03-31
      endpoint: http://localhost:3000
    functions:
      testResults:
        name: cvs-svc-test-results
        mock: tests/resources/test-results-response.json
  remote:
    params:
      apiVersion: 2015-03-31
    functions:
      testResults:
        name: test-results-${BRANCH}

S3

The S3 configuration contains settings for both the local and the remote environment. The local environment contains configuration for the local S3 instance. The remote environment does not require parameters.

s3:
  local:
    endpoint: http://localhost:7000
    s3ForcePathStyle: true
  remote: {}

Debugging

The following environmental variables can be given to your serverless scripts to trace and debug your service:

AWS_XRAY_CONTEXT_MISSING = LOG_ERROR
SLS_DEBUG = *
BRANCH = local

Testing

Unit testing

In order to test, you need to run the following:

npm run test # unit tests

End to end

• Automation test repository
• Java
• Serenity Cucumber with Junit

Infrastructure

We follow a gitflow approach for development. For the CI/CD and automation please refer to the following pages for further details:

• Development process
• Pipeline

Contributing

Please familiarise yourself with commitlint and conventional commits conventions as a hook is in place to enforce standards.

Hooks and code standards

The projects has multiple hooks configured using husky which will execute the following scripts: security-checks, audit, tslint, prepush. The codebase uses typescript clean code standards as well as sonarqube for static analysis.

SonarQube is available locally, please follow the instructions below if you wish to run the service locally (brew is the preferred approach).

Static code analysis

Brew (recommended):

• Install sonarqube using brew
• Change sonar.host.url to point to localhost, by default, sonar runs on http://localhost:9000
• run the sonar server sonar start, then perform your analysis npm run sonar-scanner

Manual:

• Download sonarqube
• Add sonar-scanner in environment variables in your profile file add the line: export PATH=<PATH_TO_SONAR_SCANNER>/sonar-scanner-3.3.0.1492-macosx/bin:$PATH
• Start the SonarQube server: cd <PATH_TO_SONARQUBE_SERVER>/bin/macosx-universal-64 ./sonar.sh start
• In the microservice folder run the command: npm run sonar-scanner
