History API

This is an API built with Spring Boot to retrieve workflow history and terminate running workflows.

API Specification

See swagger specification for the exposed endpoints.

Getting Started

Follow these instructions to run the project locally and configure for kubernetes deployment

Prerequisites

Ensure you have the following installed and configured locally:

Configuration

This section describes the configuration options available for the history API via environment variables and spring profiles

  • Run the project with the ssl profile to enable SSL
  • To generate a self-signed keystore file for development purposes, run the following command in the project directory:
    • keytool -genkeypair -alias history-api -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -storetype PKCS12 -keystore history-api.p12 -validity 3650
      • Follow prompts to set the keystore password.
      • Place the generated file in src/main/resources/keystore
    • If you don't want to place the file in the resources folder:
      • Run base64 -e -i .\history-api.p12 -o history-api-base64.txt to encode the keystore file for use in kubernetes secrets that will set the HISTORY_API_SSL_KEY_STORE to be the data in the text file you've just generated.

Caution

Setting VERIFY_HOSTNAMES to false should NOT be used in a live production environment, it should only be used when testing with self-signed SSL certificates.

Environment Variable Description Default Value Required
HISTORY_API_SSL_KEY_STORE_PASSWORD The keystore password to access the keystore Y if using SSL profile
HISTORY_API_SSL_KEY_STORE The file path or file containing the public and private keys in PKCS12 format classpath:keystore/history-api.p12 N
JWKS_URI The endpoint of the Auth API to get the JWK to verify JWT tokens with https://localhost:53655/auth/.well-known/jwks.json N
VERIFY_HOSTNAMES If using self signed certificates for SSL, set this to false for non production environments only for development true N
TEMPORAL_NAMESPACE The namespace for the Temporal client to connect to default N
TEMPORAL_ENDPOINT The URL of the Temporal frontend endpoint to connect to localhost:7233 N
ENCRYPTION_PASSWORD The password to encrypt and decrypt Temporal payloads with - this must be the same for every Temporal encryption configuration in the project changeme N
ENCRYPTION_SALT The salt to encrypt and decrypt Temporal payloads with - this must be the same for every Temporal encryption configuration in the project changeme N
LOGGING_LEVEL The root logging level for the project info N

Installing & Running Locally

Follow the instructions below to get a development environment running:

  1. Clone the repository
  2. Navigate to the project directory
  3. Run mvn clean install to build and test the project
  4. Run mvn spring-boot:run to start the server
    • Run mvn spring-boot:run -Dspring-boot.run.profiles=ssl to start the server with SSL enabled (requires extra configuration)

Running the tests

  • To run the unit tests, run mvn test in the project directory
  • To run the integration tests see the Integration Tests Project and make sure that the @HistoryAPI is added to the filter expression.

Deployment

  • Run the command from the project root to build and push a new image for both arm and amd platforms.
    • docker buildx build --platform linux/amd64,linux/arm64 -t <account name>/<image-name>:<image-tag> --push .
  • See helm deployment to deploy the History API to a kubernetes cluster.
