OpenTSDB Horizon Config

This repo contains modules used for handling various configurations of an OpenTSDB observability system including alerts, dashboards, namespaces, users, etc.

NOTE: This is still an OSS work in progress and needs some additional plugins to

tie it all together.

IDE configuration

Please follow the IntelliJ Idea setup procedure.

Step by step guide and setup for Eclipse are available here.

Usefull commands

Update local db schema:

./gradlew local-db update

Upgrade Liquibase

Ref: Liquibase doc

Make sure all of your Liquibase managed databases are up to date by running gradle update on them before upgrading to the new version of the Liquibase plugin.
Create a new, throw away database to test your Liquibase change sets. Run gradle update on the new database using the latest version of the Liquibase plugin. This is important because of the deprecated items in the Groovy DSL, and because there are some subtle differences in the ways the different Liquibase versions generate SQL. For example, adding a default value to a boolean column in MySql using defaultValue: "0" worked fine in Liquibase 2, but in Liquibase 3, it generates SQL that doesn't work for MySql - defaultValueNumeric: 0 needs to be used instead.
Once you are sure all of your change sets work with the latest Liquibase plugin, clear all checksums that were calculated by the old version of Liquibase 2 by running gradle clearChecksums against all databases.
Finally, run gradle changeLogSync on all databases to calculate new checksums.

Upgrade Local Liquibase

./gradlew local-db clearChecksums
./gradlew local-db changeLogSync

Run unit tests:

./gradlew test

Run integration tests:

./gradlew integrationTest -Penv=dev

Start local server on Mac

Follow these steps:

Create certificates Run the following command from the project root. It creates a java keystore file (javakeystore.jks) with the self signed certificates in it.

scripts/create_dev_certificates.sh

Add the following entry to the host file (/etc/hosts)

127.0.0.1	dev-config.horizon.com

Swagger Configuration Download Swagger UI. Extract the zip file and copy the dist directory to your user home directory. You can find the file index.html under dist. Modify the url link from https://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json to https://dev-config.horizon.com:4443/api/swagger.json in index.html. Rename the directory dist to swagger
Start server

./gradlew run --args 'dev'

Start server in debug mode

./gradlew run --args 'dev' --debug-jvm

Connect to remote db machine through ssh tunnel

ssh -L 3306:127.0.0.1:3306 {db_host_name}

You should be able access the Swagger page

Run Docker container on Mac

Docker run

docker run --name configapi -p 8080:8080 IMAGE_ID

or
 
docker run -dit --rm -e JAVA_OPTS=-Dlog4j.configurationFile=/opt/opentsdb/horizon/configapi/log4j2/log4j2.xml -e LOG_DIR=/opt/opentsdb/horizon/configapi/shared-data/logs --mount type=bind,source="$(pwd)",target=/opt/opentsdb/horizon/configapi/shared-data --name configapi -p 8080:8080 {IMAGE_ID} -c=file:///opt/opentsdb/horizon/configapi/shared-data/config.yaml

SSH into docker container:

docker exec -it configapi /bin/sh

Run Under OpenTSDB With Horizon UI

This is still a bit of a work in progress but ConfigDB can run as servlets in the OpenTSDB server and work with the OpenTSDB Horizon UI to manage dashboards for a default user. Here are the steps to get it running.

TODO - Somehow get a collection of the Horizon Config libraries and dependencies in a directory. In the OpenTSDB config (typically opentsdb.yaml) plugins config section ala:
```
pluginLocations:
    - /usr/share/opentsdb/opentsdb-horizon-config/build/libs
```

Also in the opentsdb.yaml config, add the MySQL pool, Horizon service and Horizon config resources (Some day we should be able to load them automatically) e.g.:

  tsd.plugin.config:
    configs:
      - plugin: net.opentsdb.threadpools.UserAwareThreadPoolExecutor
        isDefault: true
        type: net.opentsdb.threadpools.TSDBThreadPoolExecutor
      - plugin: net.opentsdb.horizon.SharedJDBCPool
        isDefault: true
        type: net.opentsdb.horizon.SharedJDBCPool
      - plugin: net.opentsdb.horizon.service.HorizonConfigServices
        isDefault: true
        type: net.opentsdb.horizon.service.HorizonConfigServices

      - plugin: net.opentsdb.horizon.resource.DashboardResource
        id: DashboardResource
        type: net.opentsdb.servlet.resources.ServletResource
      - plugin: net.opentsdb.horizon.resource.NamespaceResource
        id: NamespaceResource
        type: net.opentsdb.servlet.resources.ServletResource
      - plugin: net.opentsdb.horizon.resource.UserResource
        id: UserResource
        type: net.opentsdb.servlet.resources.ServletResource
      - plugin: net.opentsdb.horizon.resource.SnapshotResource
        id: SnapshotResource
        type: net.opentsdb.servlet.resources.ServletResource
      - plugin: net.opentsdb.horizon.resource.AlertResource
        id: AlertResource
        type: net.opentsdb.servlet.resources.ServletResource
      - plugin: net.opentsdb.horizon.resource.ContactResource
        id: ContactResource
        type: net.opentsdb.servlet.resources.ServletResource
      ...

Now, pick a data store:

MySQL

For a production system, use MySQL.

Setup a MySQL server (help us support others!). Tons of resources on how to do this.
1. Setup a database called opentsdb, e.g. via CREATE DATABASE 'opentsdb';
2. Create and grant a user full rights to the opentsdb database.
3. Temporarily edit the schema/build.gradle file, modifying the local-db tasks liquibase stanza ala:
```
  liquibase {
    activities {
      main {
        changeLogFile changeLog
        url 'jdbc:mysql://<DB_HOSTNAME>/opentsdb?serverTimezone=UTC'
        username '<DB_USER>'
        password '<DB_PASS>'
      }
    }
  }
```
  Replace the DB_HOSTNAME, DB_USERNAME and DB_PASSWORD with the proper host and credentials. E.g.
```
  liquibase {
    activities {
      main {
        changeLogFile changeLog
        url 'jdbc:mysql://localhost/opentsdb?serverTimezone=UTC'
        username 'tsdb'
        password 'temppass'
      }
    }
  }
```
  ⚠️ Do NOT commit the contents after you edit.
4. Run ./gradlew local-db update and it should connect and create tables in the DB.
Next in the same opentsdb.yaml you'll need to set the passwords for the MySQL pool. Add the following lines:
```
jdbcpool.write.user: <DB_USER>
jdbcpool.write.secret.key: PT:dbpass
jdbcpool.write.url: jdbc:mysql://<DB_HOSTNAME>/opentsdb?serverTimezone=UTC

# NOTE: This is the insecure plain-text password. Use a proper secrets plugin.
dbpass: <DB_PASS>
```
Again, replace the <DB_USER>, <DB_HOSTNAME> and <DB_PASS>. Also make sure that the plain text secret plugin is loaded and named PT by providing a command line config like: --config.providers=secrets://net.opentsdb.configuration.provider.PlainTextSecretProvider:PT,file:///etc/opentsdb/opentsdb.yaml
Start the TSDB process and check the logs to make sure the resources loaded properly. If so you should be able to add a default user by making a POST call to the TSD http://localhost:4242/api/v1/user/list with a payload of:
```
  [{
    "userid":"user.noauth",
    "name": "Default User",
    "creationMode": 0,
    "enabled":true
  }]
```
If you get a 200 back with a payload containing an updatetime you're good to go.

H2

For the all-in-one Docker container or to simply test out the project you can use an H2 database, either ephemerally in memory or saved to disk. When starting from memory or with an empty database director, a default user noauth and namespace _default will be created for use with Horizon UI.

Edit the opentsdb.yaml file to set the JDBC driver to H2 and choose a file to write to. Add the following lines:

jdbcpool.write.user: sa
jdbcpool.write.secret.key: PT:dbpass
# jdbcpool.write.url: jdbc:h2:<PATH_TO_DB>;MODE=MYSQL;NON_KEYWORDS=USER
jdbcpool.write.url: jdbc:h2:./opentsdb;MODE=MYSQL;NON_KEYWORDS=USER

# NOTE: This is the insecure plain-text password. Use a proper secrets plugin.
dbpass: sa

NOTE: This uses the default sa user and pass for H2. If you intend to run this for a while and want to secure it, follow the H2 documentation to change the user and pass.

At this point the config API should be ready to go. Use --config.providers=secrets://net.opentsdb.configuration.provider.PlainTextSecretProvider:PT,file:///etc/opentsdb/opentsdb.yaml as the config to start the TSD.

Horizon UI

To use the Horizon UI with OpenTSDB and the config API you'll need a few more settings:

First add rewrites to the opentsdb.yaml config:

 tsd.http.rewrites:
   ^/$: /index.html
   ^/d/|a/.*: /index.html
   ^/main$: /index.html

Set the opentsdb.yaml static directory to point to the location of the packaged UI files. If building from source it would be in the server/public directory from the git repo. For the pre-build OpenTSDB docker container the files are in /usr/share/opentsdb/static.
```
tsd.http.staticroot: /usr/share/opentsdb/static
```

Add CORs settings to the opentsdb.yaml file:

 tsd.http.request.cors.pattern: .*
 tsd.http.request.cors.headers: Authorization,Content-Type,Link,X-Total-Count,Range,X-Horizon-DSHBID,X-Horizon-WID

And finally you'll want to edit the Horizon UI config with a file named config in the same directory as the Horizon UI static files:

{
  "name"  : "OpenTSDB Horizon",
  "production": true,
  "readonly": false,
  "queryParams": null,
  "debugLevel": "ERROR",
  "uiBranding": {
    "logo": {
      "imageUrl": "/assets/horizon-logo-icon-only.png",
      "homeUrl": "/main"
    }
  },
  "tsdbCacheMode": null,
  "tsdbSource": null,
  "tsdb_hosts": [
    "http://localhost:4242"
  ],
  "configdb": "http://localhost:4242/api/v1",
  "metaApi": "http://localhost:4242/api",
  "auraUI": "http://localhost:4242",
  "alert": {
    "recipient": {
      "http": {
        "enable": false
      },
      "email": {
        "enable": true
      }
    }
  },
  "helpLinks": [
    { "label": "User guide", "href": "#" },
    { "label": "File a ticket", "href": "#" },
    { "label": "Talk to us", "icon": "d-slack", "href": "#" }
  ],
  "modules": {
    "dashboard": {
      "widget": {
        "overrideTime": true
      }
    }
  },
  "namespace": {
    "enabled": false,
    "default": "_default"
  },
  "auth": {
  "loginURL": "/login",
    "heartbeatURL": "/heartbeat",
    "heartbeatImgURL": "/heartbeatimg",
    "heartbeatInterval": 600
  }
}

Run (or restart) the TSD and if you hit http://localhost:4242 you should see the Horizon UI load!

Authentication Filter

To use a custom authentication filter, you will have to provide an implementation of javax.servlet.Filter and configure the fully qualified class name as shown below. You can provide the filter init parameters as key and value pair. After successful authentication, the filter should set java.security.Principal in the HttpServletRequest.

import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.security.Principal;

public class CustomAuthFilter implements Filter {
  @Override
  public void init(FilterConfig filterConfig) throws ServletException {
    // initialize the filter
  }
    
  @Override
  public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
    final HttpServletRequest httpServletRequest = (HttpServletRequest) request;
    final HttpServletResponse httpServletResponse = (HttpServletResponse) response;
    Cookie cookie = readCookie(httpServletRequest);
    if (null == cookie) {
      httpServletResponse.sendError(HttpServletResponse.SC_UNAUTHORIZED, "auth cookie not found");
    } else {
      Principal principal = authenticate(cookie.getValue());
      if (principal == null) {
        httpServletResponse.sendError(
        HttpServletResponse.SC_UNAUTHORIZED, "authentication failure");
      } else {
        HttpServletRequestWrapper requestWrapper =
          new HttpServletRequestWrapper(httpServletRequest) {
            @Override
            public Principal getUserPrincipal() {
              return principal;
            }
        };
        chain.doFilter(requestWrapper, response);
      }
    }
  }
}

serverConfig:
  port: 8080
  ...
  authConfig:
    authFilterClassName: {FQCN of CustomAuthFilter}
    initParams:
          {key1}: {value1}
          {key2}: {value2}

Secret Reader

It's not a good idea to mention the secrets for example the database user password in the free text format in the configuration file. It's recommended to store the secrets in an external key store and use the key name in the configuration file. You need to provide an implementation of net.opentsdb.horizon.secrets.KeyReader for the application to read the secrets from the key store. You would also have to provide and implementation of net.opentsdb.horizon.secrets.KeyReaderFactory and configure it as shown below.

public class CustomKeyReader extends KeyReader {

  @Override
  protected byte[] readSecret(final String key) {
    // read the secret from the key store and return.
  }
}

public class CustomKeyReaderFactory implements KeyReaderFactory<CustomKeyReader> {
  @Override
  public CustomKeyReader createKeyReader(Map<String, Object> initParams) {
    // instantiate the CustomKeyReader and return
  }
}

Configure the key read factory in the applicationConfig section as shown here.

applicationConfig:
  keyReaderFactoryClassName: {FQDN of CustomKeyReaderFactory}
  initParams:
    initParams:
          {key1}: {value1}
          {key2}: {value2}
