Running supervisor in the dev env

Deploy your local version to the devenv registry

If you haven't done so yet, login to the devenv registry:

docker login registry.resindev.io

Use username "resin" and the registry's default login details if you haven't changed them.

make ARCH=amd64 deploy

This will build the image if you haven't done it yet. A different registry can be specified with the DEPLOY_REGISTRY env var.

Set up config

Add tools/dind/config.json file from a staging device image.

A config.json file can be obtained in several ways, for instance:

  • Download an Intel Edison image from staging, open config.img with an archive tool like peazip
  • Download a Raspberry Pi 2 image, flash it to an SD card, then mount partition 5 (resin-conf).

The config.json file should look something like this (beautified and commented for better explanation):

{
	"applicationId": "2167", /* Id of the app this supervisor will run */
	"apiKey": "supersecretapikey", /* The API key for the Resin API */
	"userId": "141", /* User ID for the user who owns the app */
	"username": "gh_pcarranzav", /* User name for the user who owns the app */
	"deviceType": "intel-edison", /* The device type corresponding to the test application */
	"files": { /* This field is used by the host OS so the supervisor doesn't care about it */
		"network/settings": "[global]\nOfflineMode=false\n\n[WiFi]\nEnable=true\nTethering=false\n\n[Wired]\nEnable=true\nTethering=false\n\n[Bluetooth]\nEnable=true\nTethering=false",
		"network/network.config": "[service_home_ethernet]\nType = ethernet\nNameservers = 8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4"
	},
	"apiEndpoint": "https://api.resinstaging.io", /* Endpoint for the Resin API */
	"registryEndpoint": "registry.resinstaging.io", /* Endpoint for the Resin registry */
	"vpnEndpoint": "vpn.resinstaging.io", /* Endpoint for the Resin VPN server */
	"pubnubSubscribeKey": "sub-c-aaaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaa", /* Subscribe key for Pubnub for logs */
	"pubnubPublishKey": "pub-c-aaaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaa", /* Publish key for Pubnub for logs */
	"listenPort": 48484, /* Listen port for the supervisor API */
	"mixpanelToken": "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa", /* Mixpanel token to report events */
}

Additionally, the uuid, registered_at and deviceId fields will be added by the supervisor upon registration with the resin API.

Start the supervisor instance

make ARCH=amd64 run-supervisor

This will setup a docker-in-docker instance with an image that runs the supervisor image.

By default it will pull from the devenv registry (registry.resindev.io).

A different registry can be specified with the DEPLOY_REGISTRY env var.

e.g.

make ARCH=amd64 DEPLOY_REGISTRY= run-supervisor

to pull the jenkins built images from the docker hub.

Testing with preloaded apps

To test preloaded apps, add a tools/dind/apps.json file according to the preloaded apps spec.

It should look something like this:

[{
	"appId": "2167", /* Id of the app we are running */
	"commit": "commithash", /* Current git commit for the app */
	"imageId": "registry.resinstaging.io/appname/commithash", /* Id of the docker image for this app and commit */
	"env": { /* Environment variables for the app */
		"KEY": "value"
	}
}]

where appname and commithash correspond to the name of the test app and the last commit pushed to Resin.

For instance, imageId could be "registry.resinstaging.io/supertest/5a5f999fde38590d4c28ac80779f3999c12fd9ae"

Make sure the config.json file doesn't have uuid, registered_at or deviceId populated from a previous run.

Then run the supervisor like this:

make ARCH=amd64 PRELOADED_IMAGE=registry.resinstaging.io/appname/commithash run-supervisor

This will make the docker-in-docker instance pull the image before running the supervisor.

View the containers logs

logs supervisor -f

View the supervisor logs

enter supervisor
tail /var/log/supervisor-log/resin_supervisor_stdout.log -f

Stop the supervisor

make stop-supervisor

This will stop the container and remove it, also removing its volumes.

Working with the Go supervisor

The Dockerfile used to build the Go supervisor is Dockerfile.gosuper, and the code for the Go supervisor lives in the gosuper directory.

To build it, run:

make ARCH=amd64 gosuper

This will build and run the docker image that builds the Go supervisor and outputs the executable at gosuper/bin.

Adding Go dependencies

This project uses Godep to manage its Go dependencies. In order for it to work, this repo needs to be withing the src directory in a valid Go workspace. This can easily be achieved in the devenv by having the repo in the devenv's src directory and setting the GOPATH environment variable to such directory's parent (that is, the resin-containers directory).

If these conditions are met, a new dependency can be added with:

go get github.com/path/to/dependency

Then we add the corresponding import statement in our code (e.g. main.go):

import "github.com/path/to/dependency"

And we save it to Godeps.json with:

cd gosuper
godep save -r ./...

(The -r switch will modify the import statement to use Godep's _workspace)

Testing

Gosuper

The Go supervisor can be tested by running:

make ARCH=amd64 test-gosuper

The test suite is at gosuper/main_test.go.

Integration test

The integration test tests the supervisor API by hitting its endpoints. To run it, first run the supervisor as explained in the first section of this document.

Once it's running, you can run the test with:

make ARCH=amd64 test-integration

The tests will fail if the supervisor API is down - bear in mind that the supervisor image takes a while to start the actual supervisor program, so you might have to wait a few minutes between running the supervisor and testing it. The test expects the supervisor to be already running the application (so that the app is already on the SQLite database), so check the dashboard to see if the app has already downloaded.
