## Summary

Gungnir provides an API to get information about a device, based upon events
found in the database. It can also return the events themselves, which are
[WRP Messages](https://github.com/xmidt-org/wrp-c/wiki/Web-Routing-Protocol).
For more information on how Gungnir fits into codex, check out [the codex README](https://github.com/xmidt-org/codex).

## Code of Conduct

This project and everyone participating in it are governed by the [XMiDT Code Of Conduct](https://xmidt.io/code_of_conduct/).
By participating, you agree to this Code.

## Details

Gungnir has two endpoints currently:
* `/device/{deviceID}/events` provides a list of events for the specified
device id, ordered in descending order by record `birth date`. The list of
events are a list of WRP messages extended to also include the `BirthDate` of
the record.
* `/device/{deviceID}/status` provides the status of the device according to
the most recent `birth date`. The values it returns are:
* the device id
* the state
* the record's birth date
* the current time
* the reason the device went offline most recently

When Gungnir received a request to either endpoint, it first validates that
the request is authorized. This authorization is configurable. Then, Gungnir
gets records for that device id, limited by a configurable max number of
records but sorted in descending order by `birth date`. Gungnir checks how the
record is encrypted, if at all, and decrypts it. Then it decodes the message
into a struct so that it can parse the information as necessary before returning
the information the consumer asked for.

The events are stored in the database as [MsgPack](https://msgpack.org/index.html),
and gungnir uses [ugorji's implementation](https://github.com/ugorji/go) to
decode them.

## Build

### Source

In order to build from the source, you need a working Go environment with
version 1.11 or greater. Find more information on the [Go website](https://golang.org/doc/install).

You can directly use `go get` to put the Gungnir binary into your `GOPATH`:
```bash
GO111MODULE=on go get github.com/xmidt-org/gungnir
```

You can also clone the repository yourself and build using make:

```bash
mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/xmidt-org
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/xmidt-org
git clone [email protected]:xmidt-org/gungnir.git
cd gungnir
make build
```

### Makefile

The Makefile has the following options you may find helpful:
* `make build`: builds the Gungnir binary
* `make docker`: builds a docker image for Gungnir, making sure to get all
dependencies
* `make local-docker`: builds a docker image for Gungnir with the assumption
that the dependencies can be found already
* `make it`: runs `make docker`, then deploys Gungnir and a cockroachdb
database into docker.
* `make test`: runs unit tests with coverage for Gungnir
* `make clean`: deletes previously-built binaries and object files

### RPM

First have a local clone of the source and go into the root directory of the
repository. Then use rpkg to build the rpm:
```bash
rpkg srpm --spec /
rpkg -C /.config/rpkg.conf sources --outdir '
```

### Docker

The docker image can be built either with the Makefile or by running a docker
command. Either option requires first getting the source code.

See [Makefile](#Makefile) on specifics of how to build the image that way.

For running a command, either you can run `docker build` after getting all
dependencies, or make the command fetch the dependencies. If you don't want to
get the dependencies, run the following command:
```bash
docker build -t gungnir:local -f deploy/Dockerfile .
```
If you want to get the dependencies then build, run the following commands:
```bash
GO111MODULE=on go mod vendor
docker build -t gungnir:local -f deploy/Dockerfile.local .
```

For either command, if you want the tag to be a version instead of `local`,
then replace `local` in the `docker build` command.

### Kubernetes

WIP. TODO: add info

## Deploy

For deploying on Docker or in Kubernetes, refer to the [deploy README](https://github.com/xmidt-org/codex-deploy/tree/main/deploy/README.md).

For running locally, ensure you have the binary [built](#Source). If it's in
your `GOPATH`, run:
```
gungnir
```
If the binary is in your current folder, run:
```
./gungnir
```
