Setup Instructions

To configure the GitHub graphql Collector, execute the following steps:

• Step 1 - Artifact Preparation:

  Please review the two options in Step 1 to find the best fit for you.

  Option 1 - Download the artifact:

  You can download the SNAPSHOTs from the SNAPSHOT directory here or from the maven central repository here.

  Option 2 - Build locally:

  To configure the Github graphql collector, git clone the collector repo. Then, execute the following steps:

  To package the collector into an executable JAR file, run the Maven build from the \hygieia-scm-github-graphql-collector directory of your source code installation:

  mvn install

  The output file [collector name].jar is generated in the hygieia-scm-github-graphql-collector\target folder.

  Once you have chosen an option in Step 1, please proceed:

• Step 2: Set Parameters in Application Properties File

Set the configurable parameters in the application.properties file to connect to the Dashboard MongoDB database instance, including properties required by the GitHub Collector.

For information about sourcing the application properties file, refer to the Spring Boot Documentation.

To configure parameters for the GitHub Collector, refer to the sample application.properties section.

• Step 3: Deploy the Executable File

To deploy the [collector name].jar file, change directory to hygieia-scm-github-graphql-collector\target, and then execute the following from the command prompt:

java -jar [collector name].jar --spring.config.name=github --spring.config.location=[path to application.properties file]

Sample Application Properties

The sample application.properties lists parameter values to configure the GitHub graphql Collector. Set the parameters based on your environment setup.

	dbname=dashboarddb

	# Database HostName - default is localhost
	dbhost=localhost

	# Database Port - default is 27017
	dbport=27017

	# MongoDB replicaset
	dbreplicaset=[false if you are not using MongoDB replicaset]
	dbhostport=[host1:port1,host2:port2,host3:port3]

	# Database Username - default is blank
	dbusername=dashboarduser

	# Database Password - default is blank
	dbpassword=dbpassword
	
	# Proxy URL

	# Proxy Port
	github.proxyPort=
	
	# Proxy user if auth is required
	github.proxyUser=
	
	# Proxy password if auth is required
	github.proxyPassword=
	
	# Logging File location
	logging.file=./logs/github.log

	# Collector schedule (required)
	github.cron=0 0/5 * * * *

	github.commitThresholdDays=15
	
	# A filter of commits with subject containing the pattern that will be filtered
	github.notBuiltCommits[0]=
	github.notBuiltCommits[1]=

	# Optional: Error threshold count after which collector stops collecting for a collector item. Default is 2.
	github.errorThreshold=1

	# This is the key generated using the Encryption class in core
	github.key=<your-generated-key>

	# Personal access token generated from github and used for making authentiated calls
	github.personalAccessToken=

	# Github repository Connect Timeout value in milliseconds, default value is 20000 (20s)
	github.connectTimeout=

	# Github repository Read Timeout value in milliseconds, default value is 20000 (20s) 
	github.readTimeout=
	
	github.commitPullSyncTime=
	github.offsetMinutes=
	github.fetchCount=
	github.searchCriteria=

Run collector with Docker

You can install Hygieia by using a docker image from docker hub. This section gives detailed instructions on how to download and run with Docker.

• Step 1: Download

  Navigate to the docker hub location of your collector here and download the latest image (most recent version is preferred). Tags can also be used, if needed.

• Step 2: Run with Docker

  Docker run -e SKIP_PROPERTIES_BUILDER=true -v properties_location:/hygieia/config image_name

  • -e SKIP_PROPERTIES_BUILDER=true
    indicates whether you want to supply a properties file for the java application. If false/omitted, the script will build a properties file with default values
  • -v properties_location:/hygieia/config
    if you want to use your own properties file that located outside of docker container, supply the path here.
    • Example: -v /Home/User/Document/application.properties:/hygieia/config
