# The Supertask

Personal portfolio site for the second half of 2020.

Technologies planned for project:

- Caddy Server

- CircleCI

- Custom Authentication

- Docker Machine

- Golang

- GraphQL (gqlgen)

- MongoDB

- ReactJS

- Redis

- WebAssembly (?)

### TODO:

- Dockerize local environment (ongoing)

- Create draft of architecture (done)

- Begin building API

  - Design toward implementation of `Apollo Server` and `Apollo Client`. (on track)

  - **Provide single source of truth for models.**

    - Will be migrating to use of HashiCorp Vault.

  - **Define Redis and MongoDB secrets as environment variables.**

    - These will be managed by Vault, see above.

  - **Create initialization for unique email fields requirement.**

    - gRPC "user" microservice will manage this.

  - Successfully create and persist the following accounts:

    - Global super user to replace "root" in MongoDB.

    - Database owners, each dedicated to a given microservice.

### DONE:

- Implement `docker/mongo` and `docker/redis`

  - Implement MongoDB with Authentication

    - Wrote custom shell scripts for initializing database.

    - Implemented string interpolation of environment variables to keep secrets secure.

    - Researched and feasibility tested `heredoc` and escaped line break options for more readable JavaScript (all failed).

  - Implement Redis securely (done)

    - Fixed broken config support in `docker-compose` using `chown` and the `redis` user inside the image.

    - Disable THP support inside the container.

    - Removed unnecessary volume "persist_redis_backups" (should be /data).

  - Make sure both data stores are persisted (done)

- API

  - Define User schema. (done)

  - Generate User model and resolvers. (done)

  - Populate resolvers with logic. (in progress)
