ClusterCockpit with a Golang backend

Build

Create your job-archive accoring to this specification. At least one cluster with a valid cluster.json file is required. Having no jobs in the job-archive at all is fine. You may use the sample job-archive available for download in cc-docker/develop.

Run server

# The frontend is a submodule, so use `--recursive`
git clone --recursive git@github.com:ClusterCockpit/cc-jobarchive.git

# Prepare frontend
cd ./cc-jobarchive/frontend
yarn install
yarn build

cd ..
go get
go build

# The job-archive directory must be organised the same way as
# as for the regular ClusterCockpit.
ln -s <your-existing-job-archive> ./var/job-archive

# Create empty job.db (Will be initialized as SQLite3 database)
touch ./var/job.db

# EDIT THE .env FILE BEFORE YOU DEPLOY (Change the secrets)!
# If authentication is disabled, it can be empty.
vim ./.env

# This will first initialize the job.db database by traversing all
# `meta.json` files in the job-archive and add a new user. `--no-server` will cause the
# executable to stop once it has done that instead of starting a server.
./cc-jobarchive --init-db --add-user <your-username>:admin:<your-password> --no-server

# Start a HTTP server (HTTPS can be enabled, the default port is 8080):
./cc-jobarchive

# Show other options:
./cc-jobarchive --help

In order to run this program as a deamon, look at utils/systemd/README.md where a systemd unit file and more explanation is provided.

Configuration

A config file in the JSON format can be provided using --config to override the defaults. Look at the beginning of server.go for the defaults and consequently the format of the configuration file.

Update GraphQL schema

This project uses gqlgen for the GraphQL API. The schema can be found in ./graph/schema.graphqls. After changing it, you need to run go run github.com/99designs/gqlgen which will update graph/model. In case new resolvers are needed, they will be inserted into graph/schema.resolvers.go, where you will need to implement them.

Project Structure

  • api/ contains the REST API. The routes defined there should be called whenever a job starts/stops. The API is documented in the OpenAPI 3.0 format in ./api/openapi.yaml.
  • auth/ is where the (optional) authentication middleware can be found, which adds the currently authenticated user to the request context. The user table is created and managed here as well.
    • auth/ldap.go contains everything to do with automatically syncing and authenticating users form an LDAP server.
  • config handles the cluster.json files and the user-specific configurations (changeable via GraphQL) for the Web-UI such as the selected metrics etc.
  • frontend is a submodule, this is where the Svelte based frontend resides.
  • graph/generated should not be touched.
  • graph/model contains all types defined in the GraphQL schema not manually defined in schema/. Manually defined types have to be listed in gqlgen.yml.
  • graph/schema.graphqls contains the GraphQL schema. Whenever you change it, you should call go run github.com/99designs/gqlgen.
  • graph/ contains the resolvers and handlers for the GraphQL API. Function signatures in graph/schema.resolvers.go are automatically generated.
  • metricdata/ handles getting and archiving the metrics associated with a job.
    • metricdata/metricdata.go defines the interface MetricDataRepository and provides functions to the GraphQL and REST API for accessing a jobs metrics which automatically take care of selecting the source for the metrics (the archive or one of the metric data repositories).
    • metricdata/archive.go provides functions for fetching metrics from the job-archive and archiving a job to the job-archive.
    • metricdata/cc-metric-store.go contains an implementation of the MetricDataRepository interface which can fetch data from an cc-metric-store
    • metricdata/influxdb-v2 contains an implementation of the MetricDataRepository interface which can fetch data from an InfluxDBv2 database. It is currently disabled and out of date and can not be used as of writing.
  • schema/ contains type definitions used all over this project extracted in this package as Go disallows cyclic dependencies between packages.
    • schema/float.go contains a custom float64 type which overwrites JSON and GraphQL Marshaling/Unmarshalling. This is needed because a regular optional Float in GraphQL will map to *float64 types in Go. Wrapping every single metric value in an allocation would be a lot of overhead.
    • schema/job.go provides the types representing a job and its resources. Those can be used as type for a meta.json file and/or a row in the job table.
  • templates/ is mostly full of HTML templates and a small helper go module.
  • utils/systemd describes how to deploy/install this as a systemd service
  • utils/ is mostly outdated. Look at the cc-util repo for more up-to-date scripts.
  • .env must be changed before you deploy this. It contains a Base64 encoded Ed25519 key-pair, the secret used for sessions and the password to the LDAP server if LDAP authentication is enabled.
  • gqlgen.yml configures the behaviour and generation of gqlgen.
  • init-db.go initializes the job (and tag and jobtag) table if the --init-db flag is provided. Not only is the table created in the correct schema, but the job-archive is traversed as well.
  • server.go contains the main function and starts the actual http server.

TODO

  • fix frontend
  • write (unit) tests
  • make tokens and sessions (currently based on cookies) expire after some configurable time
  • when authenticating using a JWT, check if that user still exists
  • allow mysql as database and passing the database uri as environment variable
  • fix InfluxDB MetricDataRepository (new or old line-protocol format? Support node-level metrics only?)
  • support all metric scopes
  • documentation, comments in the code base
  • write more TODOs
  • caching
