# Streamline EMR
Packaging and installation tools for Streamline's "Streamline EMR" application.
Packaging and installation tools for the Streamline EMR web app.
## Setup
1. login to the gitlab docker registry: `docker login registry.gitlab.com`
2. update submodules: `git submodule update --init`
2. update submodules: `git submodule update --init --recursive`
## Building
To build, simply run `./package` to generate a new application package.
The `package` script will assign a few variables by default, specifically:
```
CONFIG=${CONFIG:-${LOCATION}/config.json}
COMPOSE=${COMPOSE:-${LOCATION}/docker-compose.yml}
BUILD_DIR=${BUILD_DIR:-${LOCATION}/build-packages}
```
If necessary, each of these may be overridden by running with `VAR=VALUE ./package`.
The `hosted-app-utils` project provides additional customization via command line arguments. This can be used to modify the package name, skip packaging of images, build for only one platform and more. For a list of options, run `./package -h`.
## Installing
1. extract the generated archive file in a temporary folder on the target system
2. run `<package-name>/install.sh`
3. (optional) configure an `app.conf` file for integration with Signalytic services (e.g. dbsync)
## Running
### Production (systemd)
On a production system, `systemd` will manage the lifecycle of the application, e.g.
```
# enable and start the the application service
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable streamline-emr
systemctl start streamline-emr
# stop the application service
systemctl stop streamline-emr
# restart the application service
systemctl restart streamline-emr
```
### Docker
In a docker environment, the application must be started manually. This is done by running the `start` script, for example:
```
/var/signalytic/clientapps/streamline/streamline-emr/start
```
Similarly, to stop the application:
```
/var/signalytic/clientapps/streamline/streamline-emr/stop
```
### Manual
During development or initial setup, it may be convenient to manually control the application.
Note that manually managing the application requires that the systemd service be disabled:
```
# check status
systemctl status streamline-emr
# stop service
systemctl stop streamline-emr
```
From here, the same `start` and `stop` scripts used during docker development can be used to manage the application.
## Monitoring
The script `monitor` can be used at any time to query the current status and usage of the application. Two queries are made:
- service status: current status of each docker service including health, up-time, etc.
- resource usage: reporting on cpu, memory, disk, and network usage for each container
If the `bgsystemlog` program is found, data will be written to the Signalytic system log under the `streamline_emr_status` and `streamline_emr_usage` locations using json format.
## Configuration
Certain configuration options can be adjusted by setting environment variables or by defining these variables in a `.env` file stored in the same directory as the `docker-compose.yml` file. A template file `template.env` provides an example with all values set to their defaults.
Important note when using "sibling containers": the sibling container method uses the host docker socket to provide containers with access to docker. As a result, port mappings and volume mount points all refer to the host system rather than the container from which the docker command originates.
### App Configuration
An `app.conf` file is required for integration with other Signalytic services. A template is provided which demonstrates integration with the `dbsync` service. Note that all empty fields must be assigned values before use.
## Implementation Notes
### Scripts
Several scripts are used to manage app instances, including:
`start`: main entry point - calls either `setup` or `docker compose up -d`
`setup`: run once - loads default data for the facility and applies initial database configuration then starts the application
`stop`: stops the application
`autoheal`: managed by `start` and `stop` scripts, checks for and restarts any services that become `unhealthy`
`monitor`: checks the status of each instance service and sends data to `bgsystemlog` if installed
### Docker Images
## Docker Images
We want to use our own copy of the Docker images hosted on our GitLab Registry. The `docker` folder contains a set of Dockerfiles that should be used for generating images.
If not already configured, ensure appropriate docker credentials are available:

## Building
To build, simply run `./package` to generate a new application package.
The `package` script will assign a few variables by default, specifically:
```
CONFIG=${CONFIG:-${LOCATION}/config.json}
SRC=${SRC:-${LOCATION}/src}
BUILD_DIR=${BUILD_DIR:-${LOCATION}/build-packages}

The `hosted-app-utils` project provides additional customization via command line arguments. This can be used to modify the package name, skip packaging of images, build for only one platform and more. For a list of options, run `./package -h`.
Helpful options during development:
- `--no-compression`: skip image compression to speed up packaging (packages will be much larger)
- `--app`: skip packaging of images altogether
## Installing
### Automated (Filetransfer)
1. Copy package to the management node (e.g. `scp build-packages/<package> <user>@<mgmt-node-url>:`)
2. SSH into the management node and become root (e.g. `ssh <user>@<mgmt-node-url>`, `sudo su`)
3. (optional) Prepare a filetransfer channel (e.g. `mkdir -p /var/signalytic/filetransfer/<app-name>-<arch>`)
4. Prepare a filetransfer update:
```bash
mkdir -p tmp/<update-number>
mv <package> tmp/<update-number>/
openssl sha256 -binary tmp/<update-number>/<package> | base64 - > tmp/<update-number>/_hash_
```
5. Copy the filetransfer update to the appropriate channel (e.g. `mv tmp/1 /var/signalytic/filetransfer/<app-name>-<arch>/`)
6. (optional) Restart filetransfer: `systemctl restart filetransfer`
7. If necessary, add the package to the target nodes' selective sync lists
```
bgkvs --cred admin:<pass> -B _conf -N _shared_ -d <node> -k filetransfer.selective_sync_packages.[0=<pkg1>
bgkvs --cred admin:<pass> -B _conf -N _shared_ -d <node> -k filetransfer.selective_sync_packages.[1=<pkg2>
bgkvs --cred admin:<pass> -B _conf -N _shared_ -d <node> -k filetransfer.selective_sync_packages.[2=<pkg3>
```
### Manual
1. extract the generated archive file in a temporary folder on the target system
2. run `<package-name>/install.sh`
