NEDSS-DataIngestion

Data Ingestion for Modernization of NEDSS Project by Enquizit

Prerequisites

To build and run the services, Docker is required. To run the full system, you will also need Docker Compose, though it is not required for building.

• Install Docker
• [Optional] Install Docker Compose

Additionally, building the services locally requires Java 21.

• Install Java 21

Setup

Docker is used for building the application both locally and inside a container. If you are using Docker Desktop, no further configuration is needed.

However, if you are running another container engine (such as Podman or Colima), you may need to configure environment variables. Refer to the Testcontainers documentation for details on which variables to set in a local .env file. A custom task has been added to the root build.gradle file to automatically load environment variables declared in the .env file into the JVM environment.

touch .env
$EDITOR .env

For running the services, you will need to create a dataingestion.env file with environment variables required by the services. You can copy the provided sample file and update the values as needed.

> cp dataingestion.env.sample dataingestion.env
> $EDITOR dataingestion.env

Getting all of the services up and running in Docker Compose requires some additional steps, please refer to the DevSetup.md for details.

Building / Testing

• Build the entire project: ./gradlew build
• Build a specific service: ./gradlew :data-ingestion-service:build
• Test the entire project: ./gradlew test
• Test a specific service: ./gradlew :data-processing-service:test
• Run all verification checks: ./gradlew check

Running the Application inside Docker

Use docker compose to run the services.

> docker compose up -d

NOTE: If you encounter gradle exception such as missing wrapper then run the following command

> gradle wrapper

Building Docker image for EKS (1)

If you are on Mac OS Environnment, use Docker Buildx, so linux image can be built. The following command will build the image specified in the data-ingestion-service/Dockerfile.

> docker buildx  build --platform linux/amd64 -t <DOCKER_REPOS>/<IMAGE_NAME>:<VERSION> -f data-ingestion-service/Dockerfile . --push

Deploy Docker image on EKS (2)

These steps assume EKS cluster already exist and running, and it is being manage by Helm Charts. This command will create a new service if it does not exist, otherwise it will update the existing one.

Variables:

• values-dev.yaml: indicate value file, helm charts pull values such as environment variable from this file.
• jdbc.X=VALUE: argument to pass the value in as an enviroment variable, this value is defined in values-dev.yaml.
• image.repository='VALUE': image repos, say if using registry other than docker hub. Ex: ECR

> helm upgrade --install dataingestion-service -f ./dataingestion-service/values-dev.yaml --set jdbc.dbserver='VALUE',jdbc.dbname='VALUE',jdbc.username='VALUE',jdbc.password='VALUE',jdbc.nbs.dbserver='VALUE',jdbc.nbs.dbname='VALUE',jdbc.nbs.username='VALUE',jdbc.nbs.password='VALUE',kafka.cluster='VALUE' dataingestion-service

For Helm Chart and EKS configuration, please refer to this NEDSS-Helm

• Other useful commands
  • helm delete <SERVICE-NAME>: delete service
  • kubectl exec -it <POD-ID> -- /bin/bash : access pod environment
  • kubectl get pods
  • kubectl describe pod <POD-ID>: get pod info, useful to inspect configuration and debug
  • kubectl logs <POD-ID>
