Administrators are entitled to specify the following two query parameter in case of read and list operation:
 +
 +
* hierarchical (default=false): enable [[#Hierarchical Mode]]
 +
* includeContextsInHeader (default=false): include [[#Contexts in Header]]
 +
 +
An administrator can also request the list of contexts an instance belongs to.
 +
The result is an array of strings containing the UUID of contexts.
 +
 +
===== Hierarchical Mode =====
 +
 +
An administrator has the possibilities not only the instances belonging to the current context (i.e. the context identified by the gCube Token) but also all the instances in all contexts which are children of the current context.
 +
 +
'''This functionality is only available for the list and the read operations.'''
 +
 +
This functionality enables an administrator to have a complete overview of the instances at any context tree level.
 +
 +
Thanks to this functionality:
 +
* it is possible to create an instance at the VRE level, but it is not needed to add the instance at VO level just for administrator overview;
 +
* the administrator is capable of observing the instance at any higher level in the context hierarchy;
 +
* any "normal" client read only the context instance.
 +
 +
===== Contexts in Header =====
 +
 +
This functionality allows listing all the contexts an instance belongs to.
 +
Used in conjunction with hierarchical mode provides the whole picture of the description of the resource and all different contexts it belongs.
 +
Please note that different facets in different contexts can describe a resource.
 +
 +
The list of contexts is included in the header as an array of strings containing the UUID of contexts.

==== Alternative JAVA API ====
+
The first method gets any instance of IdentifiableElement (i.e. Resources, Facets, ConsistsOf, IsRelatedTo)
 +
The second method gets the instance to be created as a JSON string instead of a Java class.

There are also two other equivalent methods with the following signature:

<pre>
+
===== Create via Java Client Example =====
−
public String createFacet(String facet) throws FacetAlreadyPresentException, ResourceRegistryException;
+
<source lang="Java">
 +
EService eService = new EServiceImpl();
 +
UUID uuid = UUID.fromString("7f37a79d-0c00-4166-8a68-165de0a438bf");
 +
Header header = new HeaderImpl(uuid);
 +
eService.setHeader(header);
  
−
public String createFacet(String facetType, String facet) throws FacetAlreadyPresentException, ResourceRegistryException;
+
SoftwareFacet softwareFacet = new SoftwareFacetImpl();
−
</pre>
+
softwareFacet.setGroup("WhnManager");
 +
softwareFacet.setName("VREManagement");
 +
softwareFacet.setVersion("2.0.0-4.15.0-132431");
 +
softwareFacet.setDescription("Web Hosting Node Service");
  
−
The first methods get the Facet to be created as JSON string instead of as Java class.
+
IsIdentifiedBy<Resource, Facet> isIdentifiedBy = new IsIdentifiedByImpl<Resource, Facet>(eService,
−
The second get also the '''facetType''' as parameter (which as to be specified as PATH PARAMETER in the request) avoiding to force client to retrieve it from the string.
+
softwareFacet, null);
−
The second method is more efficient but you have to be sure that the '''facetType''' is the same specified in the header of the serialized facet.
+
eService.addFacet(isIdentifiedBy);
  
 +
AccessPointFacet accessPointFacet = new AccessPointFacetImpl();
 +
accessPointFacet.setEndpoint(new URI("http://pc-frosini.isti.cnr.it:8080/whn-manager/gcube/vremanagement/ws/whnmanager"));
 +
accessPointFacet.setEntryName("whnmanager");
 +
ValueSchema authz = new ValueSchemaImpl();
 +
authz.setValue("gcube-token");
 +
accessPointFacet.setAuthorization(authz);
 +
eService.addFacet(accessPointFacet);

AccessPointFacet accessPointFacet2 = new AccessPointFacetImpl();

Reading the response we can observe the following properties:
  
−
<pre>POST /resource-registry/er/facet/{Facet Instance UUID}</pre>
+
* '''header''': The service generated/managed the ''header'' for each entity and relation instances;
 +
* '''propagationConstraint''': The service generated the ''propagationConstraint'' with default values when not provided by the client;
 +
* '''@superClasses''': The service included the '''@superClasses''' property. This is required because the client can be model agnostic or could not know the type of an instance. In any case, the client should be able to manage the unknown instances. The list of supertypes enables the client to instantiate the closer type. The list is ordered starting by the first supertype and arriving to the base type. As last resort, the client should be capable of instantiating the base type. When the type of an instance is a base type (e.g. ConsistsOf), the @superClasses property is empty.

==== Update via Java Client ====
−

+
−
</pre>
+
  
−
===== Example =====
+
'''Signature'''
  
−
<pre>
+
<source lang="java">
−
createdCpuFacet.setClockSpeed("2 GHz");
+
public <ERElem extends ERElement> ERElem update(ERElem er) throws SchemaViolationException, NotFoundException, ResourceRegistryException;
−
CPUFacet updatedCpuFacet = resourceRegistryPublisher.updateFacet(createdCpuFacet);
+
−
</pre>

−
==== Alternative JAVA API ====
+
public String update(String json) throws SchemaViolationException, NotFoundException, ResourceRegistryException;
 +
 +
public String update(String type, String json) throws SchemaViolationException, NotFoundException, ResourceRegistryException;
 +
 +
public String update(String type, String json, UUID uuid) throws SchemaViolationException, NotFoundException, ResourceRegistryException;
 +
</source>
  
−
There are also two other equivalent methods with the following signature:
+
The last is more efficient than the second and third because the client must not deserialize the JSON to get the instance UUID and/or the instance type.
  
−
<pre>
+
===== Update via Java Client Example =====
−
public String updateFacet(String facet) throws FacetNotFoundException, ResourceRegistryException;
+
−
public String updateFacet(UUID uuid, String facet) throws FacetNotFoundException, ResourceRegistryException;
+
−
</pre>
+
  
−
The first methods get the Facet to be created as JSON string instead of as Java class.
+
<source lang="java">
−
The second get also the '''uuid''' as parameter (which as to be specified as PATH PARAMETER in the request) avoiding to force client to retrieve it from the string.
+
UUID uuid = UUID.fromString("44abfa06-a78b-4e5a-a0c5-aa8fe7bcbcf9");
−
The second method is more efficient but you have to be sure that the provided '''uuid''' is the same specified in the header of the serialized facet.
+
StateFacet stateFacet = resourceRegistryPublisher.read(StateFacet.class, uuid);
 +
stateFacet.setValue("ready");
 +
stateFacet = resourceRegistryPublisher.update(stateFacet);

These sections provide information regarding how to interact with Resource Registry Service for Entities and Relations instances Management. REST and JAVA API are presented for each functionality.

Please note that the provided examples can intentionally hide some details in the response to avoid unneeded complexity.

Instances Management

Instances Management is responsible for the management of entities and relation instances. It offers the following APIs:

  • List: it allows to list instances of a certain type;
  • Create: it allows to create a new entity or relation instance in a certain context;
  • Exists: it allows to check if an instance exists in a certain context;
  • Read: it allows to get the representation of the requested instance in a certain context;
  • Update: it allows to update an instance in a certain context;
  • Delete: it allows to delete an instance.

The Instances Management implements the following policies:

  • it manages the Header automatically;
  • it allows identifying an instance via the Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) specified in the Header;
  • it allows the creation of an instance only if the declared type is already present in the system (previously registered via the Types Collection;
  • it validates the instance against the schema of the defined type;
  • it imposes the default values of propagation constraints (IsRelatedTo (remove=keep, add=unpropagate); ConsistsOf (remove=cascadeWhenOrphan, add=propagate).) when the client does not specify their values;
  • it guarantees propagation constraints.

Instances Collection

The following table shows the exposed APIs as REST Collection.

Operation HTTP Method URL
List GET /instances/{TYPE_NAME}[?polymorphic=true]
Create PUT /instances/{TYPE_NAME}/{UUID}
Exists HEAD /instances/{TYPE_NAME}/{UUID}
Read GET /instances/{TYPE_NAME}/{UUID}
Update PUT /instances/{TYPE_NAME}/{UUID}
Delete DELETE /instances/{TYPE_NAME}/{UUID}

Security configuration based on Authorization Framework make this port type accessible only from Resource Manager. In other words, no others client is allowed to manage types rather than Resource Manager.

Instances Collection Administrative capabilities

Operation HTTP Method URL
List GET /instances/{TYPE_NAME}[?polymorphic=true&hierarchical=false&includeContextsInHeader=false]
Read GET /instances/{TYPE_NAME}/{UUID}[?hierarchical=false&includeContextsInHeader=false]
Get Instance Contexts GET /instances/{TYPE_NAME}/{UUID}/contexts

Administrators are entitled to specify the following two query parameter in case of read and list operation:

An administrator can also request the list of contexts an instance belongs to. The result is an array of strings containing the UUID of contexts.

Hierarchical Mode

An administrator has the possibilities not only the instances belonging to the current context (i.e. the context identified by the gCube Token) but also all the instances in all contexts which are children of the current context.

This functionality is only available for the list and the read operations.

This functionality enables an administrator to have a complete overview of the instances at any context tree level.

Thanks to this functionality:

  • it is possible to create an instance at the VRE level, but it is not needed to add the instance at VO level just for administrator overview;
  • the administrator is capable of observing the instance at any higher level in the context hierarchy;
  • any "normal" client read only the context instance.
Contexts in Header

This functionality allows listing all the contexts an instance belongs to. Used in conjunction with hierarchical mode provides the whole picture of the description of the resource and all different contexts it belongs. Please note that different facets in different contexts can describe a resource.

The list of contexts is included in the header as an array of strings containing the UUID of contexts.

Get Instance Contexts
Get Instance Contexts via Java Client
public Set<UUID> getElementContexts(String type, UUID instanceUUID) throws ResourceNotFoundException, ContextNotFoundException, ResourceRegistryException;
 
public <ERElem extends ERElement> Set<UUID> getElementContexts(ERElem er) throws ResourceNotFoundException, ContextNotFoundException, ResourceRegistryException;
Get Instance Contexts via REST API
GET /instances/{TYPE_NAME}/{UUID}/contexts
Code Type Description
200 String A JSON Array containing the list of instances added to the context

Resource Registry Publisher

Resource Registry Publisher is a java library providing RPC facilities to interact with Instances Management and Instances Sharing Management. The library hides all the complexity of marshalling and unmarshalling of requests and results. By using this library any client is able to manage java classes instead of JSON objects.

To use the Java library to interact with Instances Collection declare the following dependency in your pom.xml file. 

<dependency>
	<groupId>org.gcube.information-system</groupId>
	<artifactId>resource-registry-publisher</artifactId>
	<version>[4.0.0,5.0.0-SNAPSHOT)</version>
<dependency>

To use the client you just need to instantiate the client via the provided factory. 

import org.gcube.informationsystem.resourceregistry.publisher.ResourceRegistryPublisher;
import org.gcube.informationsystem.resourceregistry.publisher.ResourceRegistryPublisherFactory;
 
...
 
ResourceRegistryPublisher resourceRegistryPublisher = ResourceRegistryPublisherFactory.create();

The provided client exposes the available methods and options as explained below.

The source code of the resource-registry-publisher is available at https://code-repo.d4science.org/gCubeSystem/resource-registry-publisher

APIs

List Instances

List via Java Client

Signature 

public <ERElem extends ERElement> List<ERElem> list(Class<ERElem> clazz, Boolean polymorphic) throws ResourceRegistryException;
 
public String list(String type, Boolean polymorphic) throws ResourceRegistryException;
List via Java Client Example 1

The following snippet of code shows how to retrieve all the resource instances. 

ResourceRegistryPublisher resourceRegistryPublisher = ResourceRegistryPublisherFactory.create();
List<Resource> allResources = resourceRegistryPublisher.list(Resource.class, true);
List via Java Client Example 2

The following snippet of code shows how to retrieve all the EService instances (only the EService). 

ResourceRegistryPublisher resourceRegistryPublisher = ResourceRegistryPublisherFactory.create();
List<EService> allResources = resourceRegistryPublisher.list(EService.class, false);

List via REST API

List via REST API Example 1

The following request shows how to retrieve all the resource instances.

Request URL 

GET /instances/Resource?polymorphic=true
List via REST API Example 2

The following request shows how to retrieve all the EService instances (only the EService).

Request URL 

GET /instances/EService

Create Instance

Create via Java Client

Signature 

public <ERElem extends ERElement> ERElem create(ERElem er) throws SchemaViolationException, AlreadyPresentException, ResourceRegistryException;
 
public String create(String json) throws SchemaViolationException, AlreadyPresentException, ResourceRegistryException;

The first method gets any instance of IdentifiableElement (i.e. Resources, Facets, ConsistsOf, IsRelatedTo) The second method gets the instance to be created as a JSON string instead of a Java class.


Create via Java Client Example
EService eService = new EServiceImpl();
UUID uuid = UUID.fromString("7f37a79d-0c00-4166-8a68-165de0a438bf");
Header header = new HeaderImpl(uuid);
eService.setHeader(header);
 
SoftwareFacet softwareFacet = new SoftwareFacetImpl();
softwareFacet.setGroup("WhnManager");
softwareFacet.setName("VREManagement");
softwareFacet.setVersion("2.0.0-4.15.0-132431");
softwareFacet.setDescription("Web Hosting Node Service");
 
IsIdentifiedBy<Resource, Facet> isIdentifiedBy = new IsIdentifiedByImpl<Resource, Facet>(eService,
		softwareFacet, null);
eService.addFacet(isIdentifiedBy);
 
AccessPointFacet accessPointFacet = new AccessPointFacetImpl();
accessPointFacet.setEndpoint(new URI("http://pc-frosini.isti.cnr.it:8080/whn-manager/gcube/vremanagement/ws/whnmanager"));
accessPointFacet.setEntryName("whnmanager");
ValueSchema authz = new ValueSchemaImpl();
authz.setValue("gcube-token");
accessPointFacet.setAuthorization(authz);
eService.addFacet(accessPointFacet);
 
AccessPointFacet accessPointFacet2 = new AccessPointFacetImpl();
accessPointFacet2.setEndpoint(new URI("http://pc-frosini.isti.cnr.it:8080/whn-manager/gcube/resource"));
accessPointFacet2.setEntryName("WhnManager-remote-management");
ValueSchema authz2 = new ValueSchemaImpl();
authz2.setValue("gcube-token");
accessPointFacet2.setAuthorization(authz2);
eService.addFacet(accessPointFacet2);
 
 
EventFacet eventFacet = new EventFacetImpl();
eventFacet.setDate(Calendar.getInstance().getTime());
ValueSchema event = new ValueSchemaImpl();
event.setSchema(new URI("String"));
event.setValue("started");
eventFacet.setEvent(event);
eService.addFacet(eventFacet);
 
StateFacet stateFacet = new StateFacetImpl();
stateFacet.setValue("started");
eService.addFacet(stateFacet);
 
 
eService = resourceRegistryPublisher.create(eService);

Create via REST API

Reading the response we can observe the following properties:

  • header: The service generated/managed the header for each entity and relation instances;
  • propagationConstraint: The service generated the propagationConstraint with default values when not provided by the client;
  • @superClasses: The service included the @superClasses property. This is required because the client can be model agnostic or could not know the type of an instance. In any case, the client should be able to manage the unknown instances. The list of supertypes enables the client to instantiate the closer type. The list is ordered starting by the first supertype and arriving to the base type. As last resort, the client should be capable of instantiating the base type. When the type of an instance is a base type (e.g. ConsistsOf), the @superClasses property is empty.

Schema Violation

As example, if you omit to include the EventFacet in the EService the service reply with a Schema Violation Exception. 

{
    "@type": "SchemaViolationException",
    "cause": null,
    "stackTrace": [....],
    "message": "A EService must be described by ConsistsOf -> EventFacet with the following constraint: max:null, min:1. Found 0 instances. The constraint has been defined by EService type.",
    "localizedMessage": "A EService must be described by ConsistsOf -> EventFacet with the following constraint: max:null, min:1. Found 0 instances. The constraint has been defined by EService type.",
    "suppressed": []
}

The error message contains information regarding:

  • the violated constraint (i.e. A EService must be described by ConsistsOf -> EventFacet with the following constraint: max:null, min:1. Found 0 instances.);
  • the type which defined such a constraint (i.e. The constraint has been defined by EService type.). Please note that is important that the service provides such information because a constraint could be defied by a parent type. In such a way the developer is capable of retrieving the schema of the indicated type.

This exception can also be raised in case of a client request to delete or remove from context a mandatory facet.

Read Instance

The following examples show how to request the service to include Contexts in the Header.

Read via Java Client

public <ERElem extends ERElement> ERElem read(ERElem er) throws NotFoundException, AvailableInAnotherContextException, ResourceRegistryException;
 
public <ERElem extends ERElement> ERElem read(Class<ERElem> clazz, UUID uuid) throws NotFoundException, AvailableInAnotherContextException, ResourceRegistryException;
 
public String read(String type, UUID uuid) throws NotFoundException, AvailableInAnotherContextException, ResourceRegistryException;
Read via Java Client Example
// This is the way to enable Hierarchical Mode
// ResourceRegistryPublisherFactory.setHierarchicalMode(true);
 
// This is the way to request the service to include the contexts in the header of the isntances
ResourceRegistryPublisherFactory.includeContextsInInstanceHeader(true);
 
UUID uuid = UUID.fromString("7f37a79d-0c00-4166-8a68-165de0a438bf");
EService eService = resourceRegistryPublisher.read(EService.class, uuid);

Read via REST API

GET /instances/{TYPE_NAME}/{UUID}
Read via REST Example

In the example, the EService with UUID 7f37a79d-0c00-4166-8a68-165de0a438bf and all its facets belong only to the context with UUID ca50eb95-b76c-44fd-9182-229d39c3c9e2 (the UUID of /gcube).

Request URL 

GET /instances/EService/7f37a79d-0c00-4166-8a68-165de0a438bf?includeContextsInHeader=true

Update Instance

Update via Java Client

Signature 

public <ERElem extends ERElement> ERElem update(ERElem er) throws SchemaViolationException, NotFoundException, ResourceRegistryException;
 
public String update(String json) throws SchemaViolationException, NotFoundException, ResourceRegistryException;
 
public String update(String type, String json) throws SchemaViolationException, NotFoundException, ResourceRegistryException;
 
public String update(String type, String json, UUID uuid) throws SchemaViolationException, NotFoundException, ResourceRegistryException;

The last is more efficient than the second and third because the client must not deserialize the JSON to get the instance UUID and/or the instance type.

Update via Java Client Example
UUID uuid = UUID.fromString("44abfa06-a78b-4e5a-a0c5-aa8fe7bcbcf9");
StateFacet stateFacet = resourceRegistryPublisher.read(StateFacet.class, uuid);
stateFacet.setValue("ready");
stateFacet = resourceRegistryPublisher.update(stateFacet);
