Postal Registry

Goal

Reference postal information registry.

Quick contributing guide

• Fork and clone locally.
• Build the solution with Visual Studio, build.cmd or build.sh.
• Create a topic specific branch in git. Add a nice feature in the code. Do not forget to add tests and/or docs.
• Run build.cmd or build.sh to make sure everything still compiles and all tests are still passing.
• When built, you'll find the binaries in ./dist which you can then test with locally, to ensure the bug or feature has been successfully implemented.
• Send a Pull Request.

Development

Getting started

Initialisation

To fill up the database for the first time:

• Run PostalRegistry.Api.CrabImport
• Run PostalRegistry.BPostReader with init -c -l Trace as flags.
• Run PostalRegistry.EventGenerator.CrabPostinfo with init -c -l Trace as flags.

Projections

To start the projections for the first time:

• Run PostalRegistry.Projector
• Send a POST to http://localhost:3006/v1/projections/start/all

Generating documentation

We use Structurizr to generate our documentation and populate our architecture decisions. All of this can be found in the Structurizr console application.

To run it, make sure you have an appsettings.json with a structurizr.com WorkspaceId, ApiKey and ApiSecret. If you have moved your adr's to another location, don't forget to update AdrPath.

This is how the generated documentation looks: https://structurizr.com/share/37794

Possible build targets

Our build.sh script knows a few tricks. By default it runs with the Test target.

The buildserver passes in BITBUCKET_BUILD_NUMBER as an integer to version the results and BUILD_DOCKER_REGISTRY to point to a Docker registry to push the resulting Docker images.

NpmInstall

Run an npm install to setup Commitizen and Semantic Release.

DotNetCli

Checks if the requested .NET Core SDK and runtime version defined in global.json are available. We are pedantic about these being the exact versions to have identical builds everywhere.

Clean

Make sure we have a clean build directory to start with.

Restore

Restore dependencies for debian.8-x64 and win10-x64 using dotnet restore and Paket.

Build

Builds the solution in Release mode with the .NET Core SDK and runtime specified in global.json It builds it platform-neutral, debian.8-x64 and win10-x64 version.

Test

Runs dotnet test against the test projects.

Publish

Runs a dotnet publish for the debian.8-x64 and win10-x64 version as a self-contained application. It does this using the Release configuration.

Pack

Packs the solution using Paket in Release mode and places the result in the dist folder. This is usually used to build documentation NuGet packages.

Containerize

Executes a docker build to package the application as a docker image. It does not use a Docker cache. The result is tagged as latest and with the current version number.

DockerLogin

Executes ci-docker-login.sh, which does an aws ecr login to login to Amazon Elastic Container Registry. This uses the local aws settings, make sure they are working!

Push

Executes docker push to push the built images to the registry.
