The Discovery Environment is a web portal for life science research, giving access to the data store and compute of the iPlant cyber-infrastructure.
This project contains all of the public code used in the Discovery Environment. That includes internally developed libraries, tools, services, database schemas and migrations, build tool plugins, GWT/GXT UI, and Ansible scripts.
All of the code in this project was previously available as separate git repositories at various granularities, but we decided to consolidate everything to make it easier to navigate, package, and manage. You can find the old repositories under the iPlantArchive organization, should you need them.
The top-level directories lein-plugins, libs, services, tools, databases, ui, and ansible are the categories that the code falls into. Each direct subdirectory contains a separate project. For instance, services/terrain/ contains the service that the Discovery Environment UI interacts with directly. Clojure project subfolders are Leiningen subprojects in and of themselves, and the UI subdirectory is a Gradle project.
Many subdirectories have their own README.md files which can be consulted if more specific information is desired.
The Discovery Environment UI is the front-end GWT/GXT code with which a user directly interacts. This code lives under the ui subdirectory, and this section assumes that subdirectory is your present working directory.
This project is built with Gradle. Please refer to the Gradle documentation for an intro to the build script basics. The top level is itself a gradle project, but there are multiple sub-projects defined within.
In addition to the basic gradle build files, here is an explanation of our additions:
To find the list of tasks you can execute:
./gradlew tasks
The webapp requires that the de.properties file be located in /etc/iplantc/de/.
To build and run the DE draft or prod self-executing war:
./gradlew runDraftWar
./gradlew runWar
To generate production war file:
./gradlew createProdWar # Resulting war will be in target/
To generate a GWT draft war file:
./gradlew draftBootRepackage
To start the Super Dev Mode code-server:
./gradlew :de:sdm
Once this code-server is started, you can use it to debug any of our wars which have source-maps enabled. Only the draft wars have source-maps enabled. For instructions on how to use Super Dev Mode, please refer to the GWT project site.
You will need the following tools and plugins to develop for the DE backend.
For kifshare development, you will also need the following tools:
The easiest way to get the above on OS X is with homebrew:
brew install npm
npm install -g grunt-cli
npm install -g grunt
If you intend to build the services with the build-all.clj script, you will need those tools installed.
We've provided a Clojure script that will go through all of the projects, build them, and move the builds to a builds/ directory. You run it like this from the top level of this project:
lein exec build-all.clj
If you just want to create the Leiningen-compatible checkout symlinks, run the following command:
lein exec build-all.clj symlinks
To build just the services, run:
lein exec build-all.clj services
The rest:
lein exec build-all.clj tools
lein exec build-all.clj lein-plugins
lein exec build-all.clj libs
lein exec build-all.clj databases
To archive the builds into the builds/ directory, add the –archive option to the above commands.
lein exec build-all.clj tools --archive
For the Leiningen projects, you'll want to create the checkouts symlinks first. They help make sure that you're developing against the latest version of our libraries.
lein exec build-all.clj symlinks
If you want to just build a specific project, go into the project's directory and call the appropriate build tool. For example:
cd services/terrain
lein clean
lein uberjar
(For libraries, you probably want lein install rather than uberjar.)
We've hacked together a bash script that will iterate over all of the Clojure projects and will set their versions to the same version, including the versions of the iPlant developed dependencies (aside from the apps service).
./set-version 2.0.10
Please, run that against a branch and submit a pull request.
We've also hacked a script together to report the versions of Clojure projects.
./get-versions
Again, these were hacked together extremely quickly and still have sharp edges. Be careful and do all modifications in a branch.
These scripts are used to deploy all the other pieces of the Discovery Environment. Please consult the in-folder documentation for more details.
