The AusSeabed Survey Coordination tool (ASB SCT) is a tool designed by GA and FrontierSI in collaboration with the AusSeabed Steering Committee and broader community.
Its intent is to provide a location for, and consistency in specification of bathymetric data acquisition for scientific research purposes.
The tool was partly funded by the National Environmental Science Program (NESP2) Marine and Coastal Hub, project 1.2 - National Areas of Interest for Seabed Mapping, Characterisation and Biodiversity Assessment. Project partners – Geoscience Australia, CSIRO, University of Tasmania.

User authentication is by an external OAuth2 provider; the staging environment makes use of AWS cognito by other OAuth2 providers will also work. Configuration is set in the server.conf
and docker-compose-prod.yml
files. The AUTH_HOST
(domain name of auth server), AUTH_CLIENT_ID
and AUTH_CLIENT_SECRET
variables must be set (latter two are provided by the auth system). The auth system will need to be configured to accept the request tools domain name as a login/logout callback (even localhost
). ANALYTICS_CODE
is used by the analytics plugin.
The development environment makes use of docker / docker-compose.
There are 3 docker containers:
- api
- Backend server
- QA4 backend web services API
- NodeJS based
- www
- Web based user interface
- VueJS, using the Quasar framework.
- db-postgres
- PostgreSQL database with PostGIS extension
- mapserver
- MapServer connects to db-postgres and publishes OGC web services (WMS, WFS)
The following configuration parameters are required. These are set as environment variables in the server.conf
config file.
AUTH_CLIENT_SECRET
- obtained from the auth system admin interface
- This secret must match the
AUTH_CLIENT_ID
id
JWT_TOKEN_KEY_PRIVATE
- Private RSA key used for generation of jwt token.
- Must match the public key at
./server/ssh_keys/public
- Newlines in key must be replaced by
\n
other characters within key may need to be escaped.
Clone the repository
git clone git@github.com:frontiersi/asb-request-and-planning-tool.git
cd asb-request-and-planning-tool
Copy/edit configs. The following environment variables need to be set:
cp config.sample/server.conf ./server.conf
Create database tables. The migrations scripts are also responsible for seeding default values into the database (eg; instrument types, data capture types, etc)
make migration-run
Build and run. This will build and start the various QA4MB containers, docker compose is run in attached mode.
make run
In development deployments NodeJS is run with the --inspect
flag supporting
remote debugging (remote as the server is run within a docker container).
Several tools support NodeJS remote debugging; chrome included via chrome://inspect. note: ignore the targets listed under Remote Targets and instead choose "Open dedicated DevTools for Node".
Unit tests are available for the NodeJS server, they can be run via the following command. Unit tests are run against test databases and do not impact the production/development databases.
make test
Web UI application can be found at:
http://localhost:3001
NodeJS express can be found at:
http://localhost:3000
MapServer is proxied to the /map/
path of the Web UI:
http://localhost:3001/map/
The above URL will produce a MapServer error, to access a GetCapabilities request use the following URL. http://localhost:3001/map/?SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetCapabilities
Both the NodeJS server and VueJS client are run in development mode which supports hot reloads. Running database migration scripts may cause the NodeJS server to crash requiring a restart of the docker container.
There are a variety of maintenance commands available, all accessed via make:
make run
- runs the development environment
make build-dev
- runs docker compose build for development environment
make stop
- stops all containers
make clean
- removes node_modules
from client and server
make migration-run
- runs the database migration scripts
make migration-revert
- reverts the last database migration step (not all)
Production Docker Compose commands are as follows:
make build-prod
- builds production ready containers
make run-prod
- runs an environment that is similar to a production deployment.
General process for modifying the database schema is as follows;
- Modify/add entity ( found in
server/src/lib/entity
) - Run migration generation command (shown below). This will produce a new
typescript file in
server/src/migration
. - Confirm migration script is ok (often require modification for default values, etc)
- Run new migration
make migration-run
The following command will automatically generate a database migration script including schema changes made to the entities (replace MIGRATION_NAME> param);
docker-compose -f docker-compose-base.yml -f docker-compose-dev.yml \
run --rm api bash -c "yarn install && rm -rf ./dist && yarn run build && \
ENVIRONMENT=production typeorm migration:generate -n <MIGRATION_NAME>"
A blank new migration can be created by replacing generate
with create
in the above command line.
The following commands will create a backup file in the ./backup
dir. The docker-compose command will require the db password.
TODAY=$(date '+%F')
docker-compose -f docker-compose-base.yml -f docker-compose-dev.yml \
run -e PGDATABASE=postgres -e PGHOST=db-postgres -e PGUSER=postgres \
--rm db-postgres pg_dump --format custom --blobs \
--file "/backup/qa4mbes-backup-${TODAY}.psql"
To restore (requires <BACKUP FILE NAME>
is in ./backup
);
note: to drop the existing database all current connections must be closed;
recommend stopping all docker containers (make stop
).
docker-compose -f docker-compose-base.yml -f docker-compose-dev.yml \
run -e PGDATABASE=postgres -e PGHOST=db-postgres -e PGUSER=postgres \
--rm db-postgres bash -c "
dropdb postgres ;
createdb postgres &&
pg_restore -d postgres '/backup/<BACKUP FILE NAME>'"
