Platform::Sdk

This gem is intended to provide clients and models for accessing the Platform APIs.

Ruby Gem

Installation

First configure your GitHub credentials

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

gem "strongmind-platform-sdk", "~> 3.19.1"

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install strongmind-platform-sdk

Usage

TODO: Write usage instructions here

Configure GitHub credentials

  • Create a GitHub PAT (personal access token) with the following scopes: delete:packages, write:packages, repo

  • Edit (or create) a ~/.gem.credentials file to include the following, replacing TOKEN with your PAT from GitHub

    ---
    :github: Bearer TOKEN
    
  • Edit (or create) a ~/.gemrc file and add the following:

    —
    :backtrace: false
    :bulk_threshold: 1000
    :sources:
    - https://rubygems.org/
    - https://USERNAME:TOKEN@rubygems.pkg.github.com/StrongMind/
    :update_sources: true
    :verbose: true  
    
  • You will also need to configure your bundler to use your GitHub credentials: $ bundle config set —-global rubygems.pkg.github.com USERNAME:TOKEN

NOTE: If your username has an @ symbol, edit your ~/.bundle/config file and replace the @ with %40

BUNDLE_RUBYGEMS__PKG__GITHUB__COM: "USERNAME:TOKEN"

Build/Publish Gem

To publish the gem, update the version.rb file and push the update to the main branch. The github actions will publish the gem automatically.

If you would like to publish the gem from your local machine for development purposes, run the following commands:

gem build platform-sdk.gemspec
gem push --key github --host https://rubygems.pkg.github.com/StrongMind platform-sdk-0.0.0.gem

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies.

Migrate the database for the dummy app:

cd spec/dummy
RAILS_ENV=test rails db:migrate

Then, run bundle exec rspec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

Code of Conduct

Everyone interacting in the Platform::Ruby::Sdk project's codebases, issue trackers, chat rooms and mailing lists is expected to follow the code of conduct.

Data Pipeline Concern

The DataPipelineable concern is a shared concern that can be included in models automatically to send data to the Data Pipeline on creates, updates, and destroys.

Installation

Ensure that platform-sdk is required in the application.

One way to do this is to require the SDK via the Gemfile:

gem 'strongmind-platform-sdk', require: 'platform_sdk'

This provides the application access to the DataPipelineable concern and RSpec shared examples.

Usage

To use the DataPipelineable concern in a model, include the concern in the model:

class MyModel < ApplicationRecord
  include PlatformSdk::ActiveRecord::DataPipelineable
end

For the concern to function, the model must have both a pipeline_noun and a pipeline_meta class method that returns the noun and metadata of the model, respectively.

This can be done once by defining the method(s) in the ApplicationRecord class:

class ApplicationRecord < ActiveRecord::Base
  self.abstract_class = true

  def self.pipeline_noun
    "StrongMind.Central.#{name}}"
  end

  def self.pipeline_meta
    {
      "source": "strongmind-central"
    }
  end
end

Or it can be defined in each model:

class MyModel < ApplicationRecord
  include PlatformSdk::ActiveRecord::DataPipelineable

  def self.pipeline_noun
    "StrongMind.Central.#{name}}"
  end

  def self.pipeline_meta
    {
      "source": "strongmind-central"
    }
  end
end

You can override the following methods in the model to customize the noun data:

class MyModel < ApplicationRecord
  include PlatformSdk::ActiveRecord::DataPipelineable

  def pipeline_excluded_attributes
    [:column1, :column2]
  end

  def pipeline_additional_attributes
    {
      "foo": "important data",
      "bar": "more important data"
    }
  end
end

Configuration

You will need the following ENV variables set in your application to send data to the Data Pipeline (found in bitwarden):

  • DATA_PIPELINE_HOST
  • DATA_PIPELINE_USERNAME
  • DATA_PIPELINE_PASSWORD

Testing

To test the DataPipelineable concern for a model, include the common shared examples in the model's spec file:

RSpec.describe MyModel, type: :model do
  describe 'sends to the Data Pipeline' do
    it_behaves_like 'DataPipelineable'
  end
end

Make sure to stub the call to the Data Pipeline in rails_helper.rb

  config.before(:each) do
    allow_any_instance_of(PlatformSdk::DataPipeline::Client).to receive(:post)
  end

Setting up IRB for API Client Testing

Require needed dependencies: require 'platform_sdk'

OneRoster API Client Initialization Example

Open IRB and initialize dependencies:

  • IDENTITY_CLIENT_ID
  • IDENTITY_CLIENT_SECRET
  • IDENTITY_BASE_URL
  • STRONGMIND_APP_BASE_URL
  • ONEROSTER_BASE_URL
  • ID_MAPPER_DOMAIN
  • ID_MAPPER_TOKEN

Create Identity Auth Client: auth_client = PlatformSdk::Identity::AuthClient.new(IDENTITY_BASE_URL, IDENTITY_CLIENT_ID, IDENTITY_CLIENT_SECRET)

Create OneRoster Client: one_roster_client = PlatformSdk::OneRoster::Client.new(ONEROSTER_BASE_URL, auth_client)

Additional Client Initialization Examples

Create Aws Client: aws_client = PlatformSdk::Aws::SecretsManagerClient.new(access_key_id: 'ACCESS_KEY_ID', secret_access_key: 'SECRET_ACCESS_KEY', region: 'REGION')

Create PowerSchool Client: power_school_client = PlatformSdk::PowerSchool::Client.new(base_url: 'BASE_URL', bearer_token: 'BEARER_TOKEN')

Create IdMapper Client: id_mapper_client = PlatformSdk::IdMapper::Client.new(domain: 'ID_MAPPER_DOMAIN', token: 'SECRET_TOKEN')

Create Pencil Spaces Client: pencil_spaces_client = PlatformSdk::PencilSpaces::Client.new('BASE_URL', 'BEARER_TOKEN')

Create Bynder Client: bynder_client = PlatformSdk::Bynder::Client.new('https://strongmind.getbynder.com/', 'API_TOKEN')
