⚠ Not Actively Maintained

This repository is not actively maintained by the OMF and has been archived. It may be reactivated when there is more interest in maintaining it from the MDS community. For a more recent version of the code that is independently updated, maintainted, and supported, see this privately-run respository.

Introduction

The mds-core repo contains a deployable reference implementation for working with MDS data. It is a beta release meant for testing by cities and other entities to gather feedback and improve the product.

The Mobility Data Specification (MDS) is a project of the Open Mobility Foundation (OMF) focused on digitally managing dockless e-scooters, bicycles and carshare in public spaces.

mds-core is...

  • a reference MDS implementation usable by cities
  • on-ramp for developers joining MDS ecosystem
  • a tool for validating software implementations and data

mds-core is not...

  • the only implementation of MDS
  • where the specification is officially defined
  • a place to define local policies or performance metrics
  • a cloud service that will be operated by the OMF

See the mds-core Wiki for more details and help, including how to use it, architecture diagrams, release goals, how to help, the technical stack used, and slideshows and a video presentation.

Overview of mds-core

The included code represents what is currently up and running for Los Angeles as well as new features under development. Includes the following:

  • A current LADOT implementation of all MDS endpoints
  • Development versions of mds-audit, mds-policy, and mds-compliance
  • MDS logging (mds-logger), daily metrics (mds-daily) and Google sheet reporting app for technical compliance.

Installation

Dependencies

Database config on macOS

If you haven't installed PostegreSQL and Redis you can install them with homebrew on macOS

brew install postgresql
brew install redis

Make sure they are running before you run the tests

brew services start postgresql
brew services start redis

If you encounter the following error: FATAL: database “<user>” does not exist

The following command should fix your issue createdb -h localhost

To run tests, you will need this: createdb -h localhost mdstest

Then add export PG_NAME=mdstest to your shell's environment file. (The name is not important, but you'll need to point it somehwere.)

Node setup

You should have NVM already installed from the link above. The top level directory of the project has a .nvmrc file and you should be able to run nvm install to get the right version of Node.

Package setup

Install Lerna

yarn global add lerna

Install all packages. Uses Yarn workspaces.

yarn install

Launching a local server for a package

Now you can work with each package

cd packages/mds-audit
yarn test
yarn start

Running the tests

You can also run all tests from the project root with

yarn test

Package Management - Lerna

This repository is a monorepo and uses Lerna for working with its packages.

Example commands

Run all test suites at once

lerna run test

Run all tests suites sequentially

lerna run test --concurrency 1

Run tests for a particular package

lerna run test --scope mds-audit

Clean all dependencies

lerna run clean

Format all files

lerna run prettier

Debugging with Visual Studio Code

Node.js: Express Server

  • Select the Node.js Express Server debug configuration
  • Select the file that implements the Node/Express server for a package (typically server.ts) in the Explorer panel
  • Press F5

Mocha Tests

  • Select the Node.js: Mocha Tests debug configuration
  • Select any one of the files in a package's test folder
  • Press F5

Kubernetes

MDS can readily be provisioned to a Kubernetes capable cluster, be it a local or remote. The following steps describe how to build, deploy and operate against a local MDS cluster.

Prerequisites

Obtain a local working copy of MDS:

% git clone https://github.com/lacuna-tech/mds-core
% cd mds-core

OSX (Linux and Windows tbd)

Install Docker Desktop:

% open https://download.docker.com/mac/stable/Docker.dmg

Start Docker-Desktop:

% open /Applications/Docker.app

Lastly, configure Kubernetes:

select the 'Preferences' option
select the 'Resources' option
  apply the following minimal resource changes:
    CPUs: 6
    Memory: 8G
    Swap: 1G
select the 'Kubernetes' option
  select 'Enable Kubernetes' option
select 'Apply & Restart'

Verify:

% which kubectl
% kubectl config set-context docker-desktop
% kubectl cluster-info

Bootstrap : install operational dependencies

In order to build and operate MDS, a number of suporting technologies are leveraged by ensuring they are installed and operational via a one-time bootstap process:

% ./bin/mdsctl -p local bootstrap

The principle tools are: homebrew, bash-4.x+, oq, jq, yarn, nvm, helm-2.14.1, k9s, kubectx, nsc, git, gcloud and awscli. Additionally the following services are provisioned: istio and nats.

Verify:

% kubectl -n istio-system get pods
% kubectl -n nats get pods
% k9s &

Build : compile source into deployable images

Compiling and packaging MDS into a deployable form is achived as follows:

% ./bin/mdsctl build

Verify:

% docker images | grep mds*

Run : install MDS

(tbd: ?best profile?)

% ./bin/mdsctl -p processors install:mds

Verify:

% curl localhost/agency

In-Cluster Development

Due to the nature of mds-core being a highly portable Typescript project that compiles down into minified javascript for its images, rapidly development in-cluster can be quite challenging. mds-core utilizes Okteto to enable developers to actively develop their code in-cluster.

After following the above steps to set up a local MDS cluster, you can override an existing service's deployment with these steps.

  1. Update mds-core/okteto.yml's name field to be set to the service you wish to replace (e.g. mds-agency)
% curl https://get.okteto.com -sSfL | sh
  1. Install the Remote - Kubernetes VSCode extension.
  2. Run > Okteto Up from the VSCode command palette.
  • After the remote session opens, execute this in the new shell window:
% yarn
% cd packages/${SERVICE_NAME}
% yarn start
  1. This session is now safe to close, and you can reattach with the okteto.${SERVICE_NAME} ssh profile automatically added for you using the VSCode Remote - SSH package.
  2. When you're completely done with your session, run > Okteto Down from the VSCode command palette, or okteto down from terminal to revert the changes made by Okteto, and return your service to its previous deployment.

MDS Operations

MDS operates atop the following services: Kubernetes, Istio, NATS, PostgreSQL and Redis.

(tbd)

Additional Considerations

Access the database:

% ./bin/mdsctl cli:postgresql

Access the cache:

% ./bin/mdsctl cli:redis

(tbd) Access the event stream:

% ./bin/mdsctl install:natsbox

Access the MDS cluster:

% k9s

Display the complete set of operations:

% ./bin/mdsctl

Cleanup

% ./bin/mdsctl uninstall:mds uninstall

Other

To commit code, you will need the pre-commit tool, which can be installed via brew install pre-commit. For more information, see SECURITY.md
