# Description This repository contains the JSON API and Task Runner components for Prowler, which facilitate a complete backend that interacts with the Prowler SDK and is used by the Prowler UI. # Components The Prowler API is composed of the following components: - The JSON API, which is an API built with Django Rest Framework. - The Celery worker, which is responsible for executing the background tasks that are defined in the JSON API. - The PostgreSQL database, which is used to store the data. - The Valkey database, which is an in-memory database which is used as a message broker for the Celery workers. ## Note about Valkey [Valkey](https://valkey.io/) is an open source (BSD) high performance key/value datastore. Valkey exposes a Redis 7.2 compliant API. Any service that exposes the Redis API can be used with Prowler API. # Modify environment variables Under the root path of the project, you can find a file called `.env.example`. This file shows all the environment variables that the project uses. You *must* create a new file called `.env` and set the values for the variables. ## Local deployment Keep in mind if you export the `.env` file to use it with local deployment that you will have to do it within the context of the Poetry interpreter, not before. Otherwise, variables will not be loaded properly. To do this, you can run: ```console poetry shell set -a source .env ``` # ๐Ÿš€ Production deployment ## Docker deployment This method requires `docker` and `docker compose`. ### Clone the repository ```console # HTTPS git clone https://github.com/prowler-cloud/api.git # SSH git clone git@github.com:prowler-cloud/api.git ``` ### Build the base image ```console docker compose --profile prod build ``` ### Run the production service This command will start the Django production server and the Celery worker and also the Valkey and PostgreSQL databases. ```console docker compose --profile prod up -d ``` You can access the server in `http://localhost:8080`. > **NOTE:** notice how the port is different. When developing using docker, the port will be `8080` to prevent conflicts. ### View the Production Server Logs To view the logs for any component (e.g., Django, Celery worker), you can use the following command with a wildcard. This command will follow logs for any container that matches the specified pattern: ```console docker logs -f $(docker ps --format "{{.Names}}" | grep 'api-') ## Local deployment To use this method, you'll need to set up a Python virtual environment (version ">=3.11,<3.13") and keep dependencies updated. Additionally, ensure that `poetry` and `docker compose` are installed. ### Clone the repository ```console # HTTPS git clone https://github.com/prowler-cloud/api.git # SSH git clone git@github.com:prowler-cloud/api.git ``` ### Install all dependencies with Poetry ```console poetry install poetry shell ``` ## Start the PostgreSQL Database and Valkey The PostgreSQL database (version 16.3) and Valkey (version 7) are required for the development environment. To make development easier, we have provided a `docker-compose` file that will start these components for you. **Note:** Make sure to use the specified versions, as there are features in our setup that may not be compatible with older versions of PostgreSQL and Valkey. ```console docker compose up postgres valkey -d ``` ## Deploy Django and the Celery worker ### Run migrations For migrations, you need to force the `admin` database router. Assuming you have the correct environment variables and Python virtual environment, run: ```console cd src/backend python manage.py migrate --database admin ``` ### Run the Celery worker ```console cd src/backend python -m celery -A config.celery worker -l info -E ``` ### Run the Django server with Gunicorn ```console cd src/backend gunicorn -c config/guniconf.py config.wsgi:application ``` > By default, the Gunicorn server will try to use as many workers as your machine can handle. You can manually change that in the `src/backend/config/guniconf.py` file. # ๐Ÿงช Development guide ## Local deployment To use this method, you'll need to set up a Python virtual environment (version ">=3.11,<3.13") and keep dependencies updated. Additionally, ensure that `poetry` and `docker compose` are installed. ### Clone the repository ```console # HTTPS git clone https://github.com/prowler-cloud/api.git # SSH git clone git@github.com:prowler-cloud/api.git ``` ### Start the PostgreSQL Database and Valkey The PostgreSQL database (version 16.3) and Valkey (version 7) are required for the development environment. To make development easier, we have provided a `docker-compose` file that will start these components for you. **Note:** Make sure to use the specified versions, as there are features in our setup that may not be compatible with older versions of PostgreSQL and Valkey. ```console docker compose up postgres valkey -d ``` ### Install the Python dependencies > You must have Poetry installed ```console poetry install poetry shell ``` ### Apply migrations For migrations, you need to force the `admin` database router. Assuming you have the correct environment variables and Python virtual environment, run: ```console cd src/backend python manage.py migrate --database admin ``` ### Run the Django development server ```console cd src/backend python manage.py runserver ``` You can access the server in `http://localhost:8000`. All changes in the code will be automatically reloaded in the server. ### Run the Celery worker ```console python -m celery -A config.celery worker -l info -E ``` The Celery worker does not detect and reload changes in the code, so you need to restart it manually when you make changes. ## Docker deployment This method requires `docker` and `docker compose`. ### Clone the repository ```console # HTTPS git clone https://github.com/prowler-cloud/api.git # SSH git clone git@github.com:prowler-cloud/api.git ``` ### Build the base image ```console docker compose --profile dev build ``` ### Run the development service This command will start the Django development server and the Celery worker and also the Valkey and PostgreSQL databases. ```console docker compose --profile dev up -d ``` You can access the server in `http://localhost:8080`. All changes in the code will be automatically reloaded in the server. > **NOTE:** notice how the port is different. When developing using docker, the port will be `8080` to prevent conflicts. ### View the development server logs To view the logs for any component (e.g., Django, Celery worker), you can use the following command with a wildcard. This command will follow logs for any container that matches the specified pattern: ```console docker logs -f $(docker ps --format "{{.Names}}" | grep 'api-') ## Applying migrations For migrations, you need to force the `admin` database router. Assuming you have the correct environment variables and Python virtual environment, run: ```console poetry shell cd src/backend python manage.py migrate --database admin ``` ## Apply fixtures Fixtures are used to populate the database with initial development data. ```console poetry shell cd src/backend python manage.py loaddata api/fixtures/0_dev_users.json --database admin ``` > The default credentials are `dev@prowler.com:thisisapassword123` or `dev2@prowler.com:thisisapassword123` ## Run tests Note that the tests will fail if you use the same `.env` file as the development environment. For best results, run in a new shell with no environment variables set. ```console poetry shell cd src/backend pytest ```
