VID Service Developers Guide

Overview

VID Service provides functionality to create/update Virtual IDs mapped against an UIN. It also provides the facility to update the status of VID. VIDs are created based on the VID policy defined in the configuration.

The documentation here will guide you through the prerequisites required for the developer' setup.

Software setup

Below are a list of tools required in ID Repository VID Services setup:

1. JDK 11

2. Any IDE (like Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA)

3. Apache Maven (zip folder)

4. pgAdmin

5. Postman

6. Git

7. Notepad++ (optional)

8. lombok.jar (file)

9. settings.xml (document)

Follow the steps below to set up ID Repository (VID Services) on your local system:

1. Download lombok.jar and settings.xml from here.

2. Unzip Apache Maven and move the unzipped folder in C:\Program Files and settings.xml to "conf" folder C:\Program Files\apache-maven-3.8.4\conf.

3. Install Eclipse, open the lombok.jar file and wait for some time until it completes the scan for Eclipse IDE and then click Install/Update.

4. Check the Eclipse installation folder C:\Users\userName\eclipse\jee-2021-12\eclipse to see if the lombok.jar is added. By doing this, you don't have to add the dependency of lombok in your pom.xml file separately as it is auto-configured by Eclipse.

5. Configure the JDK (Standard VM) with your Eclipse by traversing through Preferences → Java → Installed JREs.

Code setup

For the code setup, clone the repository and follow the guidelines mentioned in the Code Contributions.

Importing and building of a project

1. Open the project folder where pom.xml is present.

2. Open command prompt from the same folder.

3. Run the command mvn clean install -Dgpg.skip=true to build the project and wait for the build to complete successfully.

4. After building of a project, open Eclipse and select Import Projects → Maven → Existing Maven Projects → Next → Browse to project directory → Finish.

5. After successful importing of project, update the project by right-click on Project → Maven → Update Project.

Environment setup

1. For the environment setup, you need an external JAR that is available here with different versions. (E.g.: You can download kernel-auth-adapter.jar and add to project Libraries → Classpath → Add External JARs → Select Downloaded JAR → Add → Apply and Close).

2. Clone mosip-config repository.

3. Create an empty folder inside the mosip-config with sandbox-local name and then copy and paste all config files inside sandbox-local folder except .gitignore, README and LICENSE.

4. As Id Repository is using two properties files, id-repository-default and application-default, you will have to configure them according to your environment. The same files are available here for reference.

Properties to be updated:

application-default.properties

• mosip.mosip.resident.client.secret = <current_password>.

• db.dbuser.password=<password>.

• mosip.kernel.xsdstorage-uri=file:///home/user/Desktop/tspl/mosip-config/sandbox-local/(i.e. sandbox-local folder location).

• Comment this out auth.server.admin.issuer.internal.uri in application-default.properties file because you already have this auth.server.admin.issuer.uri , and hence there is no need of auth.server.admin.issuer.internal.uri.

• mosip.identity.mapping-file=<Path_to_identity_mapping_json_file>. (For Example: file:///home/user/Desktop/tspl/mosip-config/sandbox-local/identity-mapping.json)

id-repository-default.properties

• mosip.idrepo.db.url

• mosip.idrepo.db.port

• Comment out all the lines containing mosip.biometric.sdk.providers.finger, mosip.biometric.sdk.providers.face and mosip.biometric.sdk.providers.iris.

• mosip.idrepo.mosip-config-url=file:///home/user/Desktop/tspl/mosip-config/sandbox-local/(i.e. sandbox-local folder location).

5. To run the server, two files are required- kernel-config-server.jar and config-server-start.bat.

6. Put both the files in the same folder and change the location attribute to sandbox-local folder in config-server-start.bat file and also check the version of kernel-config-server.jar towards the end of the command.

Example:

java -jar -Dspring.profiles.active=native -Dspring.cloud.config.server.native.search-locations=file:C:\Users\myDell\mosipProject\mosip-config\sandbox-local -Dspring.cloud.config.server.accept-empty=true -Dspring.cloud.config.server.git.force-pull=false -Dspring.cloud.config.server.git.cloneOnStart=false -Dspring.cloud.config.server.git.refreshRate=0 kernel-config-server-1.2.0-20201016.134941-57.jar.

7. Run the server by opening the config-server-start.bat file.

The server should now be up and running.

Below are the configurations to be done in Eclipse:

1. Open Eclipse and run the project for one time as Java application, so that it will create a Java application which you can see in debug configurations and then change its name. (e.g.: project name with environment - "vid-service-dev").

2. Open the arguments and pass this -Ddomain.url=dev.mosip.net -Dapplication.base.url=http://localhost:8090 -Dspring.profiles.active=default -Dspring.cloud.config.uri=http://localhost:51000/config -Dspring.cloud.config.label=master in VM arguments.

3. Here, the domain URL represents the environment on which you are working (eg., it can be dev2.mosip.net or qa3.mosip.net).

4. Click Apply and then debug it (starts running).

VID Service API

• For API documentation, refer here.

• The APIs can be tested with the help of Swagger-UI.

• Swagger is an interface description language for describing restful APIs expressed using JSON. You can access Swagger-UI of resident-services for localhost from http://localhost:8091/idrepository/v1/swagger-ui/index.html?configUrl=/idrepository/v1/v3/api-docs/swagger-config#/.
