Porxy

Porxy is a porksy proxy of porta, a shitty solution to mediate the commnunication between 3scale/APIcast, running in a docker, and 3scale/porta, running in local environment.

This is extrictly for development purposes and cannot be considered a replacement for Red Hat's official recommendations to work with 3scale.

Requirements

Porxy assumes you can run 3scale/porta locally with whatever DBMS currently supported (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle). See installation instructions for help.

You should also have Docker running in your environment.

A Redis instance is expected to be running locally and attending to port 6379, as well as a DNS resolver capable of handling wildcard domains, such as dnsmasq.

If you are using dnsmasq, make sure to include the following two DNS records:

address=/example.com.local/127.0.0.1
address=/staging.apicast.dev/127.0.0.1

The instructions were tested in Mac OS X with zsh shell. You may addapt to your own environment accordingly.

Parameters

Consider the following general parameters for the Setup and Run sections below. Other parameters may be indicated specifically for each component.

Parameter	Description
<APICAST_ACCESS_TOKEN>	3scale/APIcast special access token to access 3scale/Porta's Master API
<PATH_TO_APISONATOR_ENV_FILE>	Path to an env file to be used by 3scale/apisonator.

Setup

Reset 3scale/porta databases

redis-cli flushall && bundle exec rails db:reset MASTER_PASSWORD=p USER_PASSWORD=p DEV_GTLD=local APICAST_ACCESS_TOKEN=<APICAST_ACCESS_TOKEN>

Env file for 3scale/apisonator

Prepare an env file for 3scale/apisonator:

echo "CONFIG_QUEUES_MASTER_NAME=host.docker.internal:6379/5\n\
CONFIG_REDIS_PROXY=host.docker.internal:6379/6\n\
CONFIG_INTERNAL_API_USER=system_app\n\
CONFIG_INTERNAL_API_PASSWORD=password\n\
RACK_ENV=production" > <PATH_TO_APISONATOR_ENV_FILE>

Run

The instructions below will run:

• 3scale/apisonator in a docker (listerner attending to port 3001 and worker)
• 3scale/porta Rails server in local environment (at port 3000)
• 3scale/porta Sidekiq processes in local environment
• Porxy in a docker (listening to port 3008)
• Staging 3scale/APIcast (listening to port 8080)

Run 3scale/apisonator in a docker

Listener

docker run -d --name apisonator --rm -p 3001:3001 --env-file <PATH_TO_APISONATOR_ENV_FILE> -it quay.io/3scale/apisonator:latest 3scale_backend start -p 3001 -l /var/log/backend/3scale_backend.log

Worker

docker run -d --name apisonator_worker --rm --env-file <PATH_TO_APISONATOR_ENV_FILE> -it quay.io/3scale/apisonator:latest 3scale_backend_worker run

Run 3scale/porta locally

Porta Rails server

DEV_GTLD=local UNICORN_WORKERS=8 rails s -b 0.0.0.0

Porta Sidekiq (in another shell)

DEV_GTLD=local RAILS_MAX_THREADS=5 bundle exec rails sidekiq

Run Porxy in a docker

docker run -d --name porxy --rm -p 3008:3008 quay.io/guicassolato/porxy:latest

Run 3scale/APIcast in a docker

docker run -d --name apicast --rm -p 8080:8080 -e THREESCALE_PORTAL_ENDPOINT="http://<APICAST_ACCESS_TOKEN>@host.docker.internal:3008/master/api/proxy/configs" -e THREESCALE_DEPLOYMENT_ENV=staging -e BACKEND_ENDPOINT_OVERRIDE="http://host.docker.internal:3001" quay.io/3scale/apicast:master
