Deployment

So you've got STF running via stf local and now you'd like to deploy it to real servers. While there are of course various ways to set everything up, this document will focus on a systemd + Docker deployment. Even if you've got a different setup, you should be able to use the configuration files as a rough guide. You can also check some Setup Examples which uses Vagrant and Virtual Box to create a virtual setup. But before going there, it is highly recommended that you read this document thoroughly.

STF consists of multiple independent processes communicating via ZeroMQ and Protocol Buffers. We call each process a "unit" to match systemd terminology.

The core topology is as follows.

Rough core topology

Each unit and its function will be explained later in the document.

Assumptions

For this example deployment, the following assumptions will be made. You will need to adjust them as you see fit. Note that this deployment was designed to be relatively easy to set up without external tools, and may not be optimal. They're also configured so that you can run everything on a single host if required.

  • You have systemd running on each host
  • You have Docker running on each host
  • Each host has an /etc/environment (a la CoreOS) file with COREOS_PRIVATE_IPV4=MACHINE_IP_HERE. This is used to load the machine IP address in configuration files.
    • You can create the file yourself or alternatively replace ${COREOS_PRIVATE_IPV4} manually as required.
  • You're deploying openstf/stf:latest. There's also a fixed tag for each release if you're feeling less adventurous.
  • You want to access the app at https://stf.example.org/. Change to the actual URL you want to use.
  • You have RethinkDB running on rethinkdb.stf.example.org. Change to the actual address/IP where required.
    • You may also use SRV records by giving the url in srv+tcp://rethinkdb-28015.skydns.stf.example.org format.
  • You have two static IPs available for the main communication bridges (or "triproxies"), or are able to figure out an alternate method. In this example we'll use devside.stf.example.org and appside.stf.example.org as easy to remember addresses.
    • You can also use SRV records as mentioned above.

Roles

Since we're dealing with actual physical devices, some units need to be deployed to specific servers to make sure that they actually connect with the devices. We currently use fleet, but in this example deployment we'll just assume that you already know how you wish to deploy and distribute the systemd units.

Provider role

The provider role requires the following units, which must be together on a single or more hosts.

App role

The app role can contain any of the following units. You may distribute them as you wish, as long as the assumptions above hold. Some units may have more requirements, they will be listed where applicable.

Database role

The database role requires the following units, UNLESS you already have a working RethinkDB server/cluster running somewhere. In that case you simply will not have this role, and should point your rethinkdb-proxy-28015.service to that server instead.

Proxy role

The proxy role ties all HTTP-based units together behind a common reverse proxy. See nginx configuration for more information.

Support units

These external units are required for the actual STF units to work.

adbd.service

You need to have a single adbd.service unit running on each host where you have devices connected.

The docker container comes with a default, insecure ADB key for convenience purposes, so that you won't have to accept a new ADB key on your devices each time the unit restarts. This is insecure because anyone in possession of the insecure key will then be able to access your device without any prompt, assuming they have physical access to it. This may or may not be a problem for you. See sorccu/adb for more information if you'd like to provide your own keys.

rethinkdb.service

As mentioned before, you only need this unit if you do not have an existing RethinkDB cluster. This configuration is provided as an example, and will get you going, but is not very robust or secure.

If you need to expand your RethinkDB cluster beyond one server you may encounter problems that you'll have to solve by yourself, we're not going to help with that. There are many ways to configure the unit, this is just one possibility! Note that if you end up not using --net host, you will then have to give rethinkdb the --canonical-address option with the server's real IP, and expose the necessary ports somehow.

You will also have to:

  1. Modify the --cache-size as you please. It limits the amount of memory RethinkDB uses and is given in megabytes, but is not an absolute limit! Real usage can be slightly higher.
  2. Update the version number in rethinkdb:2.1.1 for the latest release. We don't use rethinkdb:latest here because then you might occasionally have to manually rebuild your indexes after an update and not even realize it, bringing the whole system effectively down.
  3. The AUTHKEY environment variable is only for convenience when linking. So, the first time you set things up, you will have to access http://DB_SERVER_IP:8080 after starting the unit and run the following command:
r.db('rethinkdb').table('cluster_config').get('auth').update({auth_key: 'newkey'})

More information can be found here. You will then need to replace YOUR_RETHINKDB_AUTH_KEY_HERE_IF_ANY in the the rest of the units with the real authentication key.

Here's the unit configuration itself.

rethinkdb-proxy-28015.service

You need a single instance of the rethinkdb-proxy-28015.service unit on each host where you have another unit that needs to access the database. Having a local proxy simplifies configuration for other units and allows the AUTHKEY to be specified only once.

Note that the After condition also specifies the rethinkdb.service unit just in case you're on a low budget and want to run the RethinkDB unit on the same server as the rest of the units, which by the way is NOT recommended at all.

Main units

These units are required for proper operation of STF. Unless mentioned otherwise, each unit can have multiple running instances (possibly on separate hosts) if desired.

Requires the rethinkdb-proxy-28015.service unit on the same host.

The app unit provides the main HTTP server and currently a very, very modest API for the client-side. It also serves all static resources including images, scripts and stylesheets.

This is a template unit, meaning that you'll need to start it with an instance identifier. In this example configuration the identifier is used to specify the exposed port number (i.e. [email protected] runs on port 3100). You can have multiple instances running on the same host by using different ports.

ExecStop=-/usr/bin/docker stop -t 10 %p-%i

You may have to change the --auth-url depending on which authentication method you choose.

You have multiple options here. STF currently provides authentication units for OAuth 2.0 and LDAP, plus a mock implementation that simply asks for a name and an email address.

Since the other providers require quite a bit of configuration, we'll simply set up a mock auth unit here. If you'd rather use the real providers, see stf auth-oauth2 --help and stf auth-ldap --help for the required variables. Note that if your OAuth 2 provider uses a self-signed cert, you may have to add -e "NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0" to the docker run command. Don't forget to end the line with \.

This is a template unit, meaning that you'll need to start it with an instance identifier. In this example configuration the identifier is used to specify the exposed port number (i.e. [email protected] runs on port 3200). You can have multiple instances running on the same host by using different ports.

stf-migrate.service

Requires the rethinkdb-proxy-28015.service unit on the same host.

This unit migrates the database to the latest version, which pretty much means creating tables and setting up indexes. Schema changes do not require a migration unless a new index is introduced.

This is a oneshot unit, meaning that it shuts down after it's done.

Requires the rethinkdb-proxy-28015.service unit on the same host.

The processor is the main workhorse of STF. It acts as a bridge between the devices and the app, and nearly all communication goes through it. You may wish to have more than one instance running.

This is a template unit, meaning that you'll need to start it with an instance identifier. In this example the identifier has no special purpose, but having it allows you to start more than one unit on the same host.

Requires the adbd.service unit on the same host.

The provider unit connects to ADB and start worker processes for each device. It then sends and receives commands from the processor.

The name of the provider shows up in the device list, making it easier to see where the physical devices are located. In this configuration the name is set to the hostname.

Note that the provider needs to be able to manage a certain port range, so --net host is required until Docker makes it easier to work with ranges. The ports are used for internal services and the screen capturing WebSocket.

This is a template unit, meaning that you'll need to start it with an instance identifier. In this example configuration the identifier is used to specify the provider ID, which can then be matched against in the nginx configuration later on. The ID should be unique and persistent. This is only one way to set things up, you may choose to do things differently if it seems sketchy.

Note that you cannot have more than one provider unit running on the same host, as they would compete over which one gets to control the devices. In the future we might add a negotiation protocol to allow for relatively seamless upgrades.

Furthermore, if you're using a self-signed cert, you may have to add -e "NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0" to the docker run command. Don't forget to end the line with \.

stf-reaper.service

Requires the rethinkdb-proxy-28015.service unit on the same host.

The reaper unit receives heartbeat events from device workers, and marks lost devices as absent until a heartbeat is received again. The purpose of this unit is to ensure the integrity of the present/absent flag in the database, in case a provider shuts down unexpectedly or another unexpected failure occurs. It loads the current state from the database on startup and keeps patching its internal view as events are routed to it.

Note that it doesn't make sense to have more than one reaper running at once, as they would just duplicate the events.

The APK storage plugin loads raw blobs from the main storage unit and allows additional actions to be performed on APK files, such as retrieving the AndroidManifest.xml.

This is a template unit, meaning that you'll need to start it with an instance identifier. In this example configuration the identifier is used to specify the exposed port number (i.e. [email protected] runs on port 3300). You can have multiple instances running on the same host by using different ports.

Furthermore, if you're using a self-signed cert, you may have to add -e "NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0" to the docker run command. Don't forget to end the line with \.

You can have multiple instances running on the same host by using different ports.

Furthermore, if you're using a self-signed cert, you may have to add -e "NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0" to the docker run command. Don't forget to end the line with \.

stf-triproxy-app.service

This unit provides the appside.stf.example.org service mentioned earlier. Its purpose is to send and receive requests from the app units, and distribute them across the processor units. It's "dumb" in that it contains no real logic, and you rarely if ever need to upgrade the unit.

We call it a triproxy because it deals with three endpoints instead of the usual two.

You may have more than one instance running simultaneously, and then give a comma separated list to the provider. For simplicity we're using a normal unit here.

Note that it doesn't make sense to have more than one instance of this unit running at once as you'd just record the same events twice.

Even if you don't use HipChat, you can use the code as a base for implementing a new notifier.

Note that it doesn't make sense to have more than one instance of this unit running at once. You'd just get the same notifications twice.

If you want to store data such as screenshots and apk files into Amazon S3 instead of locally, then you can use this optional unit. Before using this you will need to setup your amazon account and get proper credentials for S3 bucket. You can read more about this at AWS documentation.

** NOTE** If you are using this storage, you will not need [email protected] unit, since both do the same thing. Only the storage location is different.

This is a template unit, meaning that you'll need to start it with an instance identifier. In this example configuration the identifier is used to specify the exposed port number (i.e. [email protected] runs on port 3500).

This is one of the multiple options for authentication provided by STF. It uses SAML 2.0 protocol. If your company uses Okta or some other SAML2.0 supported id provider, you can use it.

This is a template unit, meaning that you'll need to start it with an instance identifier. In this example configuration the identifier is used to specify the exposed port number (i.e. [email protected] runs on port 3200). You can have multiple instances running on the same host by using different ports.

** NOTE** Don't forget to change --app-url parameter for stf-app unit. It will become https://stf.example.org/auth/saml/

Nginx configuration

Now that you've got all the units ready, it's time to set up nginx to tie all the processes together with a clean URL.

So, to recap, our example setup is as follows:

Unit IP Port
[email protected] 192.168.255.100 3100
[email protected] 192.168.255.150 3200
[email protected] 192.168.255.100 3300
[email protected] 192.168.255.100 3400
[email protected] 192.168.255.100 3500
[email protected] 192.168.255.100 3600

Furthermore, let's assume that we have the following providers set up:

Unit IP Identifier
[email protected] 192.168.255.200 floor4
[email protected] 192.168.255.201 floor8

Our base nginx configuration for stf.example.org would then be:

daemon off;
worker_processes 4;

events {
  worker_connections 1024;
}

    server 192.168.255.100:3100 max_fails=0;
