SQL DB Reader

A microservice that can generically read all the DBs compatible with standard SQL queries.

Each profile defines the view on the DB and guarantees safety and reading flexibility.

It's a solution to integrate an existing database into the platform.

SQL Reader Schema

Profiles

To add a new profile create a new JSON file in the directory

profiles

rebuild and run the container. Every profile config JSON must have following fields:

  • name : The profile name. It must be equal to profile filename without extension specification.
  • options: It's possible to specify some options, see below.
  • queries: Queries that are effectively executed from service to DB. Currently are supported just one query profiles.

Profile requirements

  • profile file must be JSON file
  • profile file name must be equal to profile name
  • profile must have one valid query set in queries array
  • standard queries must have table and column field
  • standard queries must not have directSql field
  • the directSql queries must not have table, column, group, where, having, order
  • scripted profile must have its own groovy script file
  • groovy script file name must be equal to profile name

Profile Options

Each profile json has an options field like this.

{
"name": "profile_name",
"options":{
,
"isScripted": false,
"calculateTotal": true
},
"queries": [{...}]
}

Using this options it's possible to configure service behavior.

optionvaluesdefaultdescription
calculateLastRecordtrue, false??
isScriptedtrue, falsefalseIf true will apply input and output customization using corresponding groovy script.
calculateTotaltrue, falsetrueIf true will sequentially execute count query and add row count to result. If false it returns -1 as row count in result.

Profile Queries

There are two kind of configuration, to set profile queries.

Standard query configuration

Standard query configuration includes the following fields

  • table : the SQL table name.
  • columns: the SQL query projected columns.
  • where: the SQL query where condition.
  • order: the SQL query order conditions, it must be specified the column and the direction (DESC or ASC)
{
"name": "profile_name",
"options":{...},
"queries": [{
"table": "users",
"columns" : [
{"label": "name", "name": "name", "type": "string"},
{"label": "age", "name": "age", "type": "number"},
{"label": "gender", "name": "gender", "type": "string"},
],
"where" : "name = robert",
"order" : [{ "column": "age", "direction":"DESC" }]
}]
}
  • group: the SQL query group condition.
  • having: the SQL grouped query having condition.
{
"name": "profile_name",
"options":{...},
"queries": [{
"table": "users",
"columns" : [
{"label": "name", "name": "name", "type": "string"},
{"label": "age", "name": "age", "type": "number"},
{"label": "gender", "name": "gender", "type": "string"},
{"label": "count", "name": "COUNT(*)", "type": "number"}
],
"group" : "age, name, gender",
"having" : "age > 10"
}]
}

Direct query configuration

Since v0.0.5 version it's possible to execute a direct SQL query, putting in directSql field inside profile configuration. In this case other field will be ignored.

{
"name": "profile_name",
"options":{...},
"queries": [{
"directSql": "SELECT * FROM users"
}]
}

Scripts

Each profile can have corresponding script to customize input query parameter and output ResultSet. Just set true the isScripted option and create a groovy script named like the profile.

Script requirements

Query parameters customization

  • script must have customizeQueryParams method to customize http request query parameters. The method must have the following signature:
def customizeQueryParams(Map <String, Object> element) {
// do something
}
  • if you want to skip query parameter customization just avoid to use method called customizeQueryParams

Result db data extraction customization

  • script must have customizeData method to customize db query result. The method must have the following signature:
def customizeData(Map <String, Object> element) {
// do something
}
  • if you want to skip db query result customization just avoid to use method called customizeData

Development

Build

mvn clean package

docker build -t nexus.mia-platform.eu/core/db-sql-reader .

Run from code

To run from source code

mvn spring-boot:run  -Drun.arguments="--spring.config.location=src/main/resources/reader.properties"

Troubleshooting

  • [Ubuntu 18.04] if you get the java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied even if your credentials are OK you can ssh yourself and launch command.

Build and Run locally (auto)

just run build-and-run-from-docker sh script from service root.

./scripts/build-and-run-beside-oracleDB.sh

Build and Run locally (manual)

Run SQL-Like DB (required)

To start this service a running sql-like db is required. Remember to set credentials in src/main/resources/reader.properties (see below) Download or build your db image, run it with command like:

docker pull wnameless/oracle-xe-11g
docker run -d -p 1521:1521 wnameless/oracle-xe-11g

You can replace wnameless/oracle-xe-11g with any SQL-Like db compatible with jdbc.

Install DB driver (required)

You have to dowload the right driver for your database and configure it properly.

To install oracle driver

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/jdbc/jdbc-drivers-12c-download-1958347.html

mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.oracle -DartifactId=ojdbc8 -Dpackaging=jar -Dversion=local -Dfile=lib/ojdbc8.jar -DgeneratePom=true

Configure reader.properties (required)

Put db credential and profile configuration in src/main/resources/reader.properties. That's and example of valid properties use:

reader.application.name=Reader
reader.profiles.dir=profiles/devel

reader.driver=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
reader.user=system
reader.password=oracle
reader.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@//127.0.0.1:1521/xe
Query result mapping
Date Format

Use your own date format setting dateFormat in reader.properties file as follow:

reader.dateFormat=dd.MM.yyyy

Default value is ISO 8601 format.

Test

Unit Test

Just run

mvn test

to execute unit tests only.

Integration Test

Auto Run

just run from project root

bash scripts/run-integration-test.sh

and follow logs.

Manual Run

run from project root service instance and oracledb with

bash scripts/build-and-run-beside-oracleDB.sh

then just run with failsafe (build will succeed with test failures)

mvn failsafe:integration-test

or directly from your IDE.

Tag Project

Run script

Tag new project version

Please use the tag.sh to update the pom.xml project version and commit release to git.

Respect the following syntax to invoke the script:

    bash tag.sh [options] [rc]

According to semver, options could be:

  • major version when you make incompatible API changes
  • minor version when you add functionality in a backwards-compatible manner
  • patch version when you make backwards-compatible bug fixes.

According to Mia-Platform release process rc could be:

  • rc add -rc to your release tag
  • omitted

Promote rc release

When your service is ready to production you can promote your rc version invoking the script with promote option.

    bash tag.sh promote

Push changes

Don't forget to push commit and tag:

git push
git push --tags
