Welcome to TEA - The Thin Egress App

A fully Earthdata Cloud (EDC) compliant Amazon S3 distribution application.

See the documentation for a guide on deploying TEA in a production environment.

Development

You can deploy the CloudFormation template for development using our Makefile. You'll need to set up your secrets and S3 buckets manually, but once that's done pushing your changes is as easy as running make deploy.

# First time setup. Add your bucket and secret names to this file.
make Makefile.config

# Build and deploy to the configured AWS profile.
# Run this whenever you're ready to test your code changes.
make deploy

If you are forking the repository for the purpose of making your own releases see the GitHub Actions README.

Dependencies

In order to build TEA, you will need to have a few tools installed:

• make for build automation
• python3.10 for running tests and creating the CloudFormation template
• docker for building the dependency layer
• git for installing rain-api-core
• zip for creating zip files
• awscli (optional) for deploying to AWS

Python Dependencies

The Python runtime dependencies are declared in a number of requirements.in files, and pinned to requirements.txt files using pip-tools. For housekeeping purposes these are all located in the requirements directory. If you need to add a runtime dependency, put it into requirements/requirements.in and then run make lock to generate the requirements/requirements.txt file. This will run pip-compile in a docker container to ensure the file is compiled for a lambda compatible environment.

# Update the pinned requirements files
make lock

Note that the pinned requirements.txt files are environment specific. i.e. they might not be correct when run outside of a linux/awslambda environment. If you are developing on a different platform such as MacOS, you will have to compile your own versions of these files before you can install them locally.

# Create virtual environment for development
python3 -m venv .venv
# Activate virtual environment
source .venv/bin/activate

# Install pip-tools
# Make sure you see '(.venv)' in your shell prompt before running this!
pip install pip-tools

# Compile the dependency tree for your particular environment.
# On Linux, you can skip this and use the versions included in the source
pip-compile requirements/requirements.in -o requirements/my-requirements.txt
pip-compile requirements/requirements-dev.in -o requirements/my-requirements-dev.txt

# Install requirements to the virtual environment.
pip install -r requirements/my-requirements.txt -r requirements/my-requirements-dev.txt

Local Builds

All build artifacts are created in the dist directory. Numerous configuration options are available through the Makefile.config which is created the first time you run make (see Configuration).

# Clean up from previous builds
make clean

# Creates the lambda code zip: dist/thin-egress-app-code.zip
make code
# Creates the dependnecy layer zip: dist/thin-egress-app-dependencies.zip
make dependencies
# Creates the CloudFormation template: dist/thin-egress-app.yaml
make yaml
# Creates the Terraform zip file needed by cumulus
make terraform

# Creates all of the above
make build

You can deploy these artifacts to a development stack with

make deploy

Note: You can run this command as many times as you like, make will automatically detect changes made to the source code and rebuild/update the stack as needed

Configuration

After you run any make command for the first time, you will get a file called Makefile.config. This contains any Make configuration variables that you may wish to tweak for your development purposes. If you need to override any additional variables from the Makefile you can put them in this file. Alternatively, if you just need to make a one off change, make lets you set variables on the command line:

make deploy STACK_NAME=thin-egress-app-temp AWS_PROFILE=development

You will need to change any variables that have the value REQUIRED_FOR_DEPLOY! before you can run make deploy.

Local Pip Dependencies

If you need to build against a local version of one of the requirements in the requirements/requirements.txt such as rain_api_core, you will need to make a few adjustments to your Makefile.config for the docker container to be able to install those dependencies.

1. Mount the local dependency as a docker volume using DOCKER_ARGS in your Makefile.config:

DOCKER_ARGS := -v /host/path/to/rain-api-core:/var/deps/rain-api-core

2. Replace the dependency in the requirements/requirements.txt file with the container path:

file:/var/deps/rain-api-core

NOTE: This is a generated file and you should NOT be committing these changes

3. Add any source files of that dependency to the REQUIREMENTS_DEPS in your Makefile.config:

REQUIREMENTS_DEPS := $(shell find /host/path/to/rain-api-core/rain_api_core/ -name '*.py')

Now when you run make build, the dependency layer should be correctly rebuilt if any of the source files in your local version of the dependency have changed.

Running Tests

TEA has two types of automated tests. End-to-End tests and unit tests. The End-to-End tests rely on a lot of ASF specific resources to exist in the test environment, so they may be harder to adapt for custom builds.

Unit Tests

The unit test suite is written using pytest. It can be run in a virtual environment (see Python Dependencies) with the following commands:

# Activate virtual environment
source .venv/bin/activate

# Run the tests
make test
