Installation

Requirements: docker and docker-compose

To build and deploy actinia, run

git clone https://github.com/actinia-org/actinia-docker.git
cd actinia-docker
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up

Now you have a running actinia instance locally! Check with

curl http://127.0.0.1:8088/api/v3/version

On startup, some GRASS GIS locations are created by default but they are still empty. How to get some geodata to start processing, see in Testing GRASS GIS inside a container below.

General

This repository is a set of Dockerimages and docker-compose configs.

Ready to use Dockerimages are available at https://hub.docker.com/r/mundialis/actinia-core

actinia-alpine

  • build and pushed to mundialis/actinia
  • includes actinia-plugins
  • includes GRASS GIS addons
  • includes snappy

actinia-dev

  • useful for local dev setup for actinia and plugins

actinia-prod

  • example configuration for production deployment (overwrites default config)

actinia-ubuntu

  • Ubuntu Dockerimage with snappy and some actinia plugins

actinia-data

  • Shared by all containers, contains common configs and data

How to fix common startup errors

  • if a redis db is running locally this will fail. Run and try again:
/etc/init.d/redis-server stop
  • if you see an error like "max virtual memory areas vm.max_map_count [65530] is too low, increase to at least [262144]", run
sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

this is only valid on runtime. To change permanently, set vm.max_map_count in /etc/sysctl.conf

Local dev-setup with docker

For a dev setup where no actinia plugins are involved, simply follow the steps explained in actinia-core directly. Instead of from actinia_core/docker run the steps from actinia-docker.

Local dev-setup for actinia-core plugins

For a local dev setup for actinia-core and actinia-core plugins (eg. actinia-actinia-metadata-plugin or actinia-module-plugin), uninstall them in actinia-dev/Dockerfile (see outcommented code) and mount local checkouts in the container via docker-compose-dev.yml file (also see outcommented code). Build and run like described below and rebuild from your mounted source code:

docker-compose -f docker-compose-dev.yml build
docker-compose -f docker-compose-dev.yml run --rm --service-ports --entrypoint sh actinia

(cd /src/actinia_core && python3 setup.py install)

# for installing plugins, following two commands have to be executed additionally
# Note: the second one have to be modified, depending on the module
export SETUPTOOLS_SCM_PRETEND_VERSION=0.0.0
git config --global --add safe.directory /src/actinia-module-plugin

(cd /src/actinia-metadata-plugin && python3 setup.py install)
(cd /src/actinia-module-plugin && python3 setup.py install)

# you can also run tests here, eg.
(cd /src/actinia-module-plugin && python3 setup.py test)

gunicorn -b 0.0.0.0:8088 -w 1 --access-logfile=- -k gthread actinia_core.main:flask_app

To avoid cache problems, remove the packaged actinia_core (already done in Dockerfile)

pip3 uninstall actinia_core -y

If you have other problems with cache, run

python3 setup.py clean --all

Local dev-setup for actinia-core plugins with vscode

For a local dev setup for actinia-core and actinia-core plugins with vscode, you need to have the actinia repositories checked out next to each other, e.g.

repos/actinia/
├── actinia-api
├── actinia_core
├── actinia-docker
├── actinia-metadata-plugin
├── actinia-module-plugin

Then move the .vscode folder from this repository one level up and open the whole actinia folder as workspace in vscode. This can be done by eg. typing code $PATH_TO_MY_ACTINIA_CHECKOUTS in a terminal. Then press F5 and after a few seconds, a browser window should be opened pointing to the version endpoint. For debugging tips, read the docs.

Local dev-setup for actinia-core with Keycloak

For deployment change passwords in .env file!

Add to the actinia.cfg the configuration for Keycloak:

[KEYCLOAK]
config_path = /etc/default/keycloak.json
group_prefix = /actinia-user/

where the config_path is the file to the Keycloak OIDC JSON from the actinia client in Keykloak (for the DEV setup it is in actinia-dev/keycloak.json).

Then you can start the docker DEV setup as in local dev-setup with docker.

docker-compose -f docker-compose-dev.yml build
# start first postgis
docker-compose -f docker-compose-dev.yml up -d postgis
# then start keycloak
docker-compose -f docker-compose-dev.yml up -d keycloak

By first Keycloak setup you have to load the inital keycloak data:

  1. Problem: accessible_datasets and accessible_modules can get to long so that org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: value too long for type character varying(255) occurs. To fix this you can change in PostgreSQL the value type to text:
    docker exec -it actinia-docker_postgis_1 sh
    
    psql -h localhost -U keycloak
    \c keycloak
    \d user_attribute
    ALTER TABLE user_attribute ALTER COLUMN value type text;
    
    After the change you have to restart keycloak
    docker restart actinia-docker_keycloak_1
    
  2. Import inital Keycloak data:
docker cp ./actinia-keycloak/init_data/keycloak_export_dev.json actinia-docker_keycloak_1:/tmp/keycloak_export.json

docker exec -it actinia-docker_keycloak_1 /opt/jboss/keycloak/bin/standalone.sh -Djboss.socket.binding.port-offset=100 -Dkeycloak.migration.action=import -Dkeycloak.migration.provider=singleFile -Dkeycloak.migration.usersExportStrategy=REALM_FILE -Dkeycloak.migration.file=/tmp/keycloak_export.json

Wait until finished (look out for Import finished successfully in the logs) and exit the container. After the change you have to restart keycloak

docker restart actinia-docker_keycloak_1
  1. now you can access keycloak via http://localhost:8080 (admin:keycloak)

Then you can start actinia:

docker-compose -f docker-compose-dev.yml run --rm --service-ports --entrypoint sh actinia
python3 setup.py install
sh /src/start.sh

And test it, e.g. with getting the token via Python3:

from keycloak import KeycloakOpenID

keycloak_url = "http://localhost:8080/auth/"
realm = "actinia-realm"
client_id = "actinia-client"
client_secret_key = "KCXeHuJCLfd8qIhwIYkWZLrkauzBkLAb"

keycloak_openid = KeycloakOpenID(server_url=keycloak_url, client_id=client_id, realm_name=realm, client_secret_key=client_secret_key)

# superadmin
user = "actinia-superadmin"
pw = "actinia-superadmin"

token = keycloak_openid.token(user, pw)
print(token["access_token"])

Request actinia via Keycloak token:

TOKEN=xxx
curl -H 'Accept: application/json' -H "Authorization: Bearer ${TOKEN}" http://localhost:8088/api/v3/version | jq
# request mapsets
curl -H 'Accept: application/json' -H "Authorization: Bearer ${TOKEN}" http://localhost:8088/api/v3/locations/nc_spm_08/mapsets | jq

Testing GRASS GIS inside a container

See this README for more information.

Production deployment

To run actinia_core in production systems, you can use the docker-compose-prod.yml. Please change before the default redis password in redis_data/config/.redis and inside the actinia.cfg. Also incomment the build block in the docker-compose.yml. Additional change the keycloak and postgis passwords in .env file.

To start the server, run:

docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml build
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d

Then actinia runs at 'http://127.0.0.1:8088' and depending on your server settings might be accessible from outside. Because of this the start.sh is overwritten to not create any user to avoid security vulnerability. You will have to use a clean redis database to avoid stored actinia credentials from previous runs. You have to create the user by yourself by using the built-in actinia-user cli. Please change below username (-u) and password (-w):

# list help about the cli tool:
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml exec actinia \
    actinia-user --help

# create a user and grant permissions to mapsets:
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml exec actinia \
    actinia-user create -u actinia-core -w actinia-core -r user -g user -c 100000000 -n 1000 -t 6000
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml exec actinia \
    actinia-user update -u actinia-core -d nc_spm_08/PERMANENT

Read more about user roles here: https://actinia.mundialis.de/tutorial/actinia_concepts.html#user-user-roles-and-user-groups

Testing the actinia server

After deployment, you should be able to access the endpoints.

Examples:

Cloud deployment with multiple actinia_core instances

For cloud deployment, you can use the docker-swarm.sh script as a starting point.

Shutdown current actinia swarm:

docker stack rm actinia_swarm
docker swarm leave --force

Start new actinia swarm:

bash docker-swarm.sh

See the scripts for hints.
