Ant Build Properties

Setting Properties

Follow these steps to set the build and deploy properties required for building and deploying caNanoLab.

Step 1.  Extract caNanoLab

Extract the GitHub location to a location on your local system, for example, C:\caNanoLab_2.2 (This location is referred as <CANANOLAB_SOURCE> throughout the document). Verify that the following five folders exist in the directory <CANANOLAB_SOURCE>:

  • build
  • cananolab-db
  • cananolab-grid
  • cananolab-webapp
  • common

Return to top

Step 2. Edit Ant Properties

Edit the Ant properties file, build.properties, at <CANANOLAB_SOURCE>/build by specifying values for the following properties.

Property

Description

file.repository.dir

A directory on the system that hosts the Wildfly application server for storing uploaded files, for example, C:/apps/caNanoLab. 

Writable Directory

Create this directory prior to starting the application, and ensure that the user who starts the Wildfly server has Write access. If working on Windows platform, use either double back slashes \\ or a single forward slash / as the file separator.

admin.email

The email address that receives requests for new user accounts, for example, the NCI CBIIT application support email for the NCI CBIIT installation.

ldap.authentication.enabled

A Boolean flag to indicate whether or not to use LDAP for user authentication. caNanoLab 2.1.1 and beyond does not support LDAP authentication. Set this to false.

database.server

The name of the server hosting the database, for example, localhost.

database.port

The database port number, for example, 3306.

database.user

The database user name used in the caNanoLab application, for example, cananolab_app.

database.password

The password for the database that the user specified above, for example, go!234.

database.system.user

The system database user name with privileges to create a database, create tables, and grant user accesses to a database, for example, root.

database.system.password

The password for the system database that the user specified above, for example, rootpass.

jboss.server.dir

The Wildfly server directory, for example:

C:/apps/wildfly-8.2.0.Final/standalone

Installation and Deployment

Step 1.  DB changes to be deployed to migrate to caNanoLab 2.2 from caNanoLab 2.1

a   Execute the following scripts in the order specified below:

Return to top

b  Migrate access control data from CSM 5.2 to Spring Security.

The migration of access control data has been implemented as a series of ReST services. These services must be invoked in the following order for all access data to be migrated from CSM to Spring Security.

#

Action

1

Migrates all user accounts and grants them all the default Public role and Curator role to curators in CSM.

https://cananolab.nci.nih.gov/caNanoLab/rest/datamigration/migrateuseraccounts

Migrates all access for samples - RWD access for owner and curator, R access for researcher, RWD and R access for specific users.

https://cananolab.nci.nih.gov/caNanoLab/rest/datamigration/migratesampleaccess

Migrates all access for protocols - RWD access for owner and curator, R access for researcher, RWD and R access for specific users.

https://cananolab.nci.nih.gov/caNanoLab/rest/datamigration/migrateprotocolaccess

Migrates all access for publications - RWD access for owner and curator, R access for researcher, RWD and R access for specific users.

https://cananolab.nci.nih.gov/caNanoLab/rest/datamigration/migratepublicationaccess

Adds all charaterizations to the ACL tables and sets them up with the corresponding sample as parent objects. This sets up the characterizations to inherit the access of their sample.

https://cananolab.nci.nih.gov/caNanoLab/rest/datamigration/migratecharaccess

Migrates all organizations to ACL tables and grant public access. Also, sets up inheritance of access for POCs of organizations.

https://cananolab.nci.nih.gov/caNanoLab/rest/datamigration/migratesamplesourceaccess

Step 2. caNanoLab installation instructions to upgrade to 2.2

Follow these steps to install and deploy caNanoLab.

#

Action

1

Set up an environment variable JBOSS_HOME to point to the Wildfly installation directory.

Windows Platform

If working on the Windows platform, use either double back slashes // or a single forward slash / as the file separator, for example, JBOSS_HOME=C:/wildfly-8.2.0.Final (C:\wildfly-8.2.0.Final would fail).

2

Execute the Ant build script build.xml located at <CANANOLAB_SOURCE>/build with the target deploy:cananolab-webpp.

Example: Issue the following commands to execute the Ant script:

C:\>cd C:\caNanoLab_2.2\build
C:\caNanoLab_2.2\build>ant deploy:cananolab-webapp 

Successful execution of the Ant script generates the following artifacts that include two deployable web archive war files, configuration files and libraries for running the web application in the Wildfly environment, and also places these artifacts in the appropriate directories under <JBOSS_HOME>. Artifacts generated are also available in the following folder under <CANANOLAB_SOURCE>: 

target/dist/cananolab-webapp/caNanoLab.war 
target/dist/common/ApplicationSecurityConfig.xml  
target/dist/common/login-config.xml 
target/dist/common/mysql-connector-java-5.1.26.jar 
target/dist/common/properties-service.xml
target/dist/common/bcprov-jdk15on-1.47.jar 
target/dist/common/caNanoLab_modules.cli 
target/dist/common/caNanoLab_setup.cli 
target/dist/common/caNanoLab_deploy.cli

3

We recommend increasing the JBoss JVM heap size to 2G bytes and permanent generation (permgen) memory space to 256M bytes by updating the file <JBOSS_HOME>/bin/standalone.conf with the following JAVA_OPTS:

JAVA_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx2048m -XX:PermSize=128m 
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000
-Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000"

This configuration file is read when Wildfly server starts.

For a standalone server, pass in the JVM settings either as command line arguments when executing the $JBOSS_HOME/bin/standalone.sh script, or by declaring them in $JBOSS_HOME/bin/standalone.conf.
(For Windows users, the script to execute is %JBOSS_HOME%/bin/standalone.bat while the JVM settings can be declared in
%JBOSS_HOME%/bin/standalone.conf.bat.)

4

Create a new directory structure C:/local/content/caNanoLab/artifacts and move the following artifacts.

  • caNanoLab.war
  • bcprov-jdk15on-1.47.jar
  • mysql-connector-java-5.1.26.jar
  • caNanoLab_modules.cli
  • caNanoLab_setup.cli
  • caNanoLab_deploy.cli 

Create a new directory structure C:/local/content/caNanoLab/config and move the following artifacts.

  • ApplicationSecurityConfig.xml
  • wikihelp.properties
5

Start JBoss application server in Standalone mode.

From <install-dir>/bin:

./standalone.sh --server-config=standalone-full.xml

The cli scripts assumes the CLI port is running at 19990. If it is different, update the port number at the second line in the script. 

For Windows environment:

jboss-cli.bat --file=C:/local/content/caNanoLab/artifacts/caNanoLab_modules.cli and press <ENTER>. 

For Linux environment:

jboss-cli.sh --file= /local/content/caNanoLab/artifacts/caNanoLab_modules.cli and press <ENTER>.

Run the remaining caNanoLab_setup.cli and caNanoLab_deploy.cli that deploys the caNanoLab.

After successful completion, you should see following output in the window.

{"outcome"=> "success"}
{"outcome"=> "success"}
{"outcome"=> "success"}
{"outcome"=> "success"}
{
"outcome"=> "success",
"result"=> undefined
}

Return to top

Verification

Once the deployment artifacts are deployed and the Wildfly application server is correctly configured, shutdown and restart the Wildfly application server, which in turn starts the caNanoLab application.

Open the URL, http://<APP_SERVER_URL>/caNanoLab/, for example,  http://localhost:8080/caNanoLab . The Welcome/Login page displays.
