# AGL Framework Binder This project provides the binder component of the the microservice architecture of Automotive Grade Linux (AGL). This project is available there https://git.automotivelinux.org/src/app-framework-binder/ It can be cloned with **git clone https://git.automotivelinux.org/src/app-framework-binder**. ## License and copying This software is an open source software funded by LinuxFoundation and Renesas.

It requires the following libraries: * libmagic ("libmagic-dev" under Ubuntu, "file-devel" under Fedora); * libmicrohttpd >= 0.9.60 (fetch and build from "http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libmicrohttpd"); * json-c ("libjson-c-dev/devel"); * uuid ("uuid-dev/libuuid-devel"); * openssl ("libssl-dev/openssl-devel"); * systemd >= 222 ("libsystemd-dev/systemd-devel"); The following library can be used for checking permissions: * cynara (https://github.com/Samsung/cynara) and the following tools: * gcc; * pkg-config; * cmake >= 3.0 To install all dependencies under Ubuntu (excepting libmicrohttpd), please type: $ apt-get install libmagic-dev libjson-c-dev uuid-dev libsystemd-dev libssl-dev gcc make pkg-config cmake or under Fedora (excepting libmicrohttpd and rtl-sdr): $ dnf install git passwd iproute openssh-server openssh-client $ dnf install file-devel gcc gdb make pkgconfig cmake $ dnf install json-c-devel libuuid-devel systemd-devel openssl-devel ### Simple compilation The following commands will install the binder in your subdirectory **$HOME/local** (instead of **/usr/local** the default when *CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX* isn't set). $ git clone https://git.automotivelinux.org/src/app-framework-binder $ cd app-framework-binder $ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/local .. $ make install ### Advanced compilation You can tune options when calling cmake. Here are the known options with their default values. $ git clone https://git.automotivelinux.org/src/app-framework-binder $ cd app-framework-binder $ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local \ -DAGL_DEVEL=OFF \ -DINCLUDE_MONITORING=OFF \ -DINCLUDE_SUPERVISOR=OFF \ -DINCLUDE_DBUS_TRANSPARENCY=OFF \ -DINCLUDE_LEGACY_BINDING_V1=OFF \ -DINCLUDE_LEGACY_BINDING_VDYN=OFF \ -DAFS_SUPERVISOR_PORT=1619  \ -DAFS_SUPERVISOR_TOKEN="HELLO" \ -DAFS_SUPERVISION_SOCKET="@urn:AGL:afs:supervision:socket" \ -DUNITDIR_SYSTEM=${CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR}/systemd/system \ .. $ make install The configuration options are: | Variable | Type | Feature |:----------------------------|:-------:|:------------------------------ | AGL_DEVEL | BOOLEAN | Activates development features | INCLUDE_MONITORING | BOOLEAN | Activates installation of monitoring | INCLUDE_SUPERVISOR | BOOLEAN | Activates installation of supervisor | INCLUDE_DBUS_TRANSPARENCY | BOOLEAN | Allows API transparency over DBUS | INCLUDE_LEGACY_BINDING_V1 | BOOLEAN | Includes the legacy Binding API version 1 | INCLUDE_LEGACY_BINDING_VDYN | BOOLEAN | Includes the legacy Binding API version dynamic | AFS_SUPERVISOR_PORT | INTEGER | Port of service for the supervisor | AFS_SUPERVISOR_TOKEN | STRING | Secret token for the supervisor | AFS_SUPERVISION_SOCKET | STRING | Internal socket path for supervision (internal if starts with @) | UNITDIR_SYSTEM | STRING | Path to systemd system unit files for installing supervisor ***** TO BE COMPLETED ***** ## Simple demo ### Testing/Debug ``` $ ${AFB_DAEMON_DIR}/build/src/afb-daemon --help $ ${AFB_DAEMON_DIR}/build/src/afb-daemon --port=1234 --token='' --ldpaths=${AFB_DAEMON_DIR}/build --workdir=/tmp --rootdir=${AFB_DAEMON_DIR}/test ``` ### Starting ``` $ afb-daemon --help $ afb-daemon --verbose --port= --token='' --workdir= --rootdir= ``` ### Example ``` $ afb-daemon --verbose --port=1234 --token='' --workdir=/tmp --rootdir=/srv/www/htdocs --alias=icons:/usr/share/icons ``` ### Directories & Paths Default behaviour is to locate ROOTDIR in $HOME/.AFB ### REST API Developers are intended to provide a structure containing : API name, corresponding methods/callbacks, and optionally a context and a handle. A handle is a void* structure automatically passed to API callbacks. Callbacks also receive HTTP GET data as well as HTTP POST data, in case a POST method was used. Every method should return a JSON object or NULL in case of error. API plugins can be protected from timeout and other errors. By default this behaviour is deactivated, use --apitimeout to activate it. STATIC AFB_restapi myApis[]= { {"ping" , AFB_SESSION_NONE, (AFB_apiCB)ping, "Ping Function"}, {"action1" , AFB_SESSION_CHECK, (AFB_apiCB)action1 , "Action-1"}, {"action2" , AFB_SESSION_CHECK, (AFB_apiCB)action2 , "Action-2"}, {NULL} }; PUBLIC AFB_plugin *pluginRegister () { AFB_plugin *plugin = malloc (sizeof (AFB_plugin)); plugin->type = AFB_PLUGIN_JSON; plugin->info = "Plugin Sample"; plugin->prefix= "myPlugin"; plugin->apis = myApis; return (plugin); } ### HTML5 and AngularJS Redirects Binder supports HTML5 redirect mode even with an application baseurl. Default value for application base URL is /opa. See Application Framework HTML5 Client template at https://github.com/iotbzh/afb-client-sample If the Binder receives something like _http://myopa/sample_ when sample is not the homepage of the AngularJS OPA, it will redirect to _http://myopa/#!sample_. This redirect will return the _index.html_ OPA file and will notify AngularJS not to display the homepage, but the sample page. Warning: in order for AngularJS applications to be able to work with both BASEURL="/" and BASEURL="/MyApp/", all page references have to be relative. Recommended model is to develop with a BASEURL="/opa" as any application working with a BASEURL will work without, while the opposite is not true. Note: If a resource is not accessible from ROOTDIR then the "--alias" switch should be used, as in: --alias=/icons:/usr/share/icons. Only use alias for external support static files. This should not be used for API and OPA. ### Ongoing work Javascript plugins. As of today, only C plugins are supported, but JS plugins are on the TODO list.
