This repository is a work-in-progress implementation of a new API and database interface for KernelCI, to replace kernelci-backend. It's mainly based on FastAPI, Mongo DB and Redis.
Please refer to the architecture for more details.
Please refer to start Docker containers of all the services.
Note that the FastAPI server is running on port 8000 inside the container, but
it's exposed to the host via port 8001 to avoid conflicts with other services.
This can be adjusted for each setup in
docker-compose.yaml
.
Generate a new key for Authentication. After that, please refer to create and add a user in Mongo DB. The user can also generate an API token to use API endpoints.
Ultimately, there will be a web frontend to provide a login form. We don't have that yet as this new KernelCI API implementation is still in its early stages.
The FastAPI server will automatically generate documentation for the API itself and serve it directly: http://localhost:8001/latest/docs
To use the generated documentation, first open it with a web browser. Then click on "Authorize 🔓", enter the user name and password and click on the new "Authorize" button.
This is based on OpenAPI, and you can also download the openapi.json
file to
use it with other tools: http://localhost:8001/latest/openapi.json
Please follow the below instructions to test API endpoints.
Install Python requirements with additional packages for testing:
pip install -r docker/api/requirements-dev.txt
We have already created .env file from Authentication section. Export the file with SECRET_KEY environment variable in it:
export $(cat .env)
Run the below command from kernelci-api directory:
pytest -v test/
This will start running unit test cases from kernelci-api/test directory and display results.
In addition to the unit tests, end-to-end tests for API has been developed.
A Github action check test
is running on every push and pull to execute the end-to-end tests.
In order to ease the execution of the tests locally, a shell script run_e2e_tests.sh
has been introduced.
Run the below command from kernelci-api directory:
./run_e2e_tests.sh
This will start running e2e test cases in a docker-compose
environment from kernelci-api/e2e_tests directory and display results.
