OpenSlides datastore service

Service for OpenSlides which wraps the database, which includes reader and writer functionality. For an overview of the core concepts and available methods see the wiki. As a starting point for developing begin with the basic repository layout.

Usage

A Makefile is used to encapsulate all docker related commands. It is recommended to use the docker setup to run the datastore, so you need make, docker and docker-compose installed on your system as the only requirements.

For the productive mode two images openslides-datastore-reader and openslides-datastore-writer must be build via Make:

make build

You can run the datastore (with or without logs) and stop it:

make run
make stop
# with logs:
make run-verbose  # Ctrl+C to quit

If you want to include the Datastore in other projects (e.g. as a dependency for testing), refer to the development documentation.

Initial data

To create initial data, see development documentation.

Curl example

After you started the productive environment, you can issue requests e.g. via curl. First, create a model:

curl http://localhost:9011/internal/datastore/writer/write -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"user_id": 1, "information": {}, "locked_fields": {}, "events": [{"type": "create", "fqid": "a/1", "fields": {"f": 1}}]}'

Then you can get that model with:

curl http://localhost:9010/internal/datastore/reader/get -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"fqid": "a/1"}'

All other commands work analogous to this.

Development

Please refer to the development documentation.

Configuration

The datastore can be configured with the following environment variables:

DATASTORE_MIN_CONNECTIONS: The minimum amount of connections to the database that will be created. Default: 0
DATASTORE_MAX_CONNECTIONS: The maximum amount of connections to the database that will be created. If this is set to 1, only one connection can access the database at a time. The writer always runs in single-access mode, so no write errors occur. Default: 1
DATASTORE_MAX_RETRIES: The amount of times a request to the database is retried before giving up. Minimum: 1, Default: 3
DATASTORE_RETRY_TIMEOUT: How long to wait before retrying a request to the database, in ms. Set 0 to disable waiting between requests. Default: 10
