Eradani Connect Server

This is the REST server over Aldon LMi used by the Eradani Connect Jira plugin.

Install and configure XMLSERVICE

Configure Eradani Connect Server

This is a list of steps that need to be completed in order to get the Eradani Connect Server configured and up and running after cloning the git repository.

Note: in this guide I cloned the Eradani Connect Server repo to the /home/demo/eradani-connect-server directory. In the Beta/GA version this should probably be put in something like /QOpenSys/Eradani/Eradani-Connect/ProdData.

Create configuration file

Make a copy of the file config/development.json.sample and name it config/development.json. This file is available at /home/staging/eradani-connect-server/config for the staging server and /home/demo/eradani-connect-server/config for the demo (production) server.

  • Set app.port to an available port
  • Set the xml.* options to match those of the XMLSERVICE instance you will be using
  • Set the logger.maxLoggingLevel option to your desired level of logging. Available levels are listed below in order of increasing severity. Once you set a logging level, all levels below it in this list will also be enabled! For example, if you set the logging level to "info", the server will also store "warn" and "error" level logs, but not "verbose", "debug", or "silly" level logs.
    • "silly"
    • "debug"
    • "verbose"
    • "info"
    • "warn"
    • "error"

After setting the values copy config/development.json to config/production.json.

Create JWT keys

Run the following commands from a PASE shell to create the JWT keys and rename the public key with the name the server expects:

$ ssh-keygen -f config/keys/jwt-private.key
$ mv config/keys/jwt-private.key.pub config/keys/jwt-public.key

Create the logs directory

Run the following the command to create the directory for the log files:

$ mkdir logs

Create the native IBM i objects

Create the necessary native objects so that the server can be administered from the native environment.

Create user profile

Create a user profile for Eradani Connect. All objects will be owned by this user and the server will run as this user.

CRTUSRPRF USRPRF(ECNCT) PWDEXP(*YES) INLPGM(QSYS/QCMD) TEXT('Eradani Connect user profile') JOBD(QGPL/QDFTJOBD) MSGQ(QUSRSYS/ECNCT)

Create libraries

Create the program and data libraries.

CRTLIB LIB(ECNCT) TEXT('Eradani Connect program data')

CHGOBJOWN OBJ(ECNCT) OBJTYPE(*LIB) NEWOWN(ECNCT)

CRTLIB LIB(ECNCTUSR) TEXT('Eradani Connect user data')

CHGOBJOWN OBJ(ECNCTUSR) OBJTYPE(*LIB) NEWOWN(ECNCT)

Create the routing class and job queue

CRTCLS CLS(ECNCT/ECNCT) TEXT('Class for Eradani Connect subsystem')

CRTJOBQ JOBQ(ECNCT/ECNCT) TEXT('Job queue for Eradani Connect jobs')

Create the job and subsystem descriptions

CRTJOBD JOBD(ECNCT/ECNCT) JOBQ(ECNCT/ECNCT) TEXT('Eradani Connect job description') USER(ECNCT) PRTTXT('Eradani Connect jobs') RQSDTA('call PGM(QP2SHELL) PARM(''/home/demo/eradani-connect-server/ecnct.sh'')')

CRTSBSD SBSD(ECNCT/ECNCT) POOLS((1 *BASE)) MAXJOBS(30) TEXT('Eradani Connect subsystem description')

Add objects to subsystem

Add the job queue and class to the subsystem description. Also add the job description as an auto-start entry to the subsystem.

Change application's owner

Change the owner of the Eradani Connect server application:

CHGOWN OBJ('/home/demo/eradani-connect-server/') NEWOWN(ECNCT) SUBTREE(*ALL)

Updating the Eradani Connect server

Stop the server:

ENDSBS SBS(ECNCTS) /* Staging */
/*  or  */
ENDSBS SBS(ECNCT)  /* Demo    */

Update the code:

# Staging
cd /home/staging/eradani-connect-server/  
#
# Or
#
# Demo
cd /home/demo/eradani-connect-server/

# Update the repo
git pull

Note: Check for configuration updates in ./src/config/development.sample.json.

Start the server:

STRSBS SBSD(ECNCTS/ECNCTS) /* Staging */
/*  or    */
STRSBS SBSD(ECNCTS/ECNCT)  /* Demo    */
