# cvs-tsk-edh-marshaller

handles update requests destined for EDH and pipes them to SQS queues.

## Dependencies

The project runs on node >18 with typescript and serverless framework. For further details about project dependencies, please refer to the `package.json` file.
[nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm/blob/master/README.md) is used to managed node versions and configuration explicitly done per project using an `.npmrc` file.

### Prerequisites

Please install and run the following security programs as part of your development process:

- [git-secrets](https://github.com/awslabs/git-secrets)
After installing, do a one-time set up with `git secrets --register-aws`. Run with `git secrets --scan`.

## Architecture

### End to end design

[All in one view](https://wiki.dvsacloud.uk/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=79254695)

## Getting started

Set up your nodejs environment running `nvm use` and once the dependencies are installed using `npm i`, you can run the scripts from `package.json` to build your project.
This code repository uses [serverless framework](https://www.serverless.com/framework/docs/) to mock AWS capabilities for local development.

### Scripts

- Building without source maps - `npm run build`
- Building with source maps - `npm run build:dev`

### Configuration

The configuration file can be found under `src/config/config.yml`.
Environment variable injection is possible with the syntax:
`${BRANCH}`, or you can specify a default value: `${BRANCH:local}`.

### Environmental variables

- The `BRANCH` environment variable indicates in which environment is this application running. Not setting this variable will result in defaulting to `local`.
- The `DEBUG` environment variable is used as a feature flag, to enable more extensive logging. Does more logging if value is `TRUE`, otherwise off
- The `VALIDATION` environment variable is used as a feature flag, to enable validation. Does validation if value is `TRUE`, otherwise off

### Debugging

The following environmental variables can be given to your serverless scripts to trace and debug your service:

```shell
AWS_XRAY_CONTEXT_MISSING = LOG_ERROR
SLS_DEBUG = *
BRANCH
```

## Testing

### Unit testing

In order to test, you need to run the following:

```sh
npm run test # unit tests
```

### End to end

- [Automation test repository](https://github.com/dvsa/cvs-auto-svc)
- [Java](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/)
- [Serenity Cucumber with Junit](https://serenity-bdd.github.io/theserenitybook/latest/junit-basic.html)

## Infrastructure

We follow a [gitflow](https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/comparing-workflows/gitflow-workflow) approach for development.
For the CI/CD and automation please refer to the following pages for further details:

- [Development process](https://wiki.dvsacloud.uk/display/HVT/CVS+Pipeline+Infrastructure)
- [Pipeline](https://wiki.dvsacloud.uk/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=36870584)

## Contributing

Please familiarise yourself with [commitlint](https://commitlint.js.org/#/) and [conventional commits conventions](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0-beta.2/) as a hook is in place to enforce standards.

### Hooks and code standards

The projects has multiple hooks configured using [husky](https://github.com/typicode/husky#readme) which will execute the following scripts: `security-checks`, `audit`, `tslint`, `prepush`.
The codebase uses [typescript clean code standards](https://github.com/labs42io/clean-code-typescript) as well as sonarqube for static analysis.

SonarQube is available locally, please follow the instructions below if you wish to run the service locally (brew is the preferred approach).

### Static code analysis

_Brew_ (recommended):

- Install sonarqube using brew
- Change `sonar.host.url` to point to localhost, by default, sonar runs on `http://localhost:9000`
- run the sonar server `sonar start`, then perform your analysis `npm run sonar-scanner`

_Manual_:

- [Download sonarqube](https://www.sonarqube.org/downloads/)
- Add sonar-scanner in environment variables in your profile file add the line: `export PATH=/sonar-scanner-3.3.0.1492-macosx/bin:$PATH`
- Start the SonarQube server: `cd /bin/macosx-universal-64 ./sonar.sh start`
- In the microservice folder run the command: `npm run sonar-scanner`
