CircleCI Known Vulnerabilities

Manage HMPPS Auth Accounts

The service requires the following tools:

  • node
  • Chrome
  • Chromedriver (align the version with chrome version installed on your machine)

NVM

It is recommended to use nvm to ensure that you are running the same version of node that is being used in CI and in production.

To do this on a mac:

brew install nvm

Then create a new folder ~/.nvm.

Then add the following lines to your .bashrc or .zshrc:

export NVM_DIR=~/.nvm
source $(brew --prefix nvm)/nvm.sh

Close the terminal and reopen. Then run within the repository folder:

nvm install --latest-npm

This will pick up the .nvmrc file which contains the node version that should be used.

Dependent services when running locally

When running locally this service needs to use other supporting services which need to be running and available at known locations.

  • Redis (port: 6379)
  • HMPPS Auth (port: 9090)
  • HMPPS Manage Users API (port: 9091)
  • NOMIS User Roles API (port: 8082)

These can be run in Docker using: docker compose up

Running hmpps-manage-users locally

The application can be built & run with the following bash commands :

npm install
npm run start:dev

This will start the service and use the default dependent services as above.

The UI will be available on http://localhost:3001

NPM will use the package.json file in the root of the project to download any required dependencies. The application will listen for any changes and restart as necessary.

Overriding the Default Environment Settings

When hmpps-manage-users runs in non-local environments it requires a set of environment variables to tell it where to find the dependent services and other important settings. The following environment variables supply these values:

Environment Variable Description
API_CLIENT_ID Client ID for accessing apis
API_CLIENT_SECRET Client secret for accessing apis
MANAGE_USERS_API_ENDPOINT_URL URL to manage users api
NOMIS_USERS_API_ENDPOINT_URL URL to NOMIS manage users api
HMPPS_AUTH_URL URL to HMPPS Auth
DPS_ENDPOINT_URL DPS Core UI
SESSION_SECRET Session secret

Production execution

For a production build run the following within bash :

npm run build
node-env mode=PRODUCTION npm start

Running in Docker locally

docker run -p 3001:3000 -d \
     --name hmpps-manage-users \
     -e USE_API_GATEWAY_AUTH=no \
     quay.io/hmpps/hmpps-manage-users:latest

Running locally in intelliJ

A redis instance needs to be created to allow the UI to run successfully.

docker stop redis && docker rm redis && docker-compose -f docker-compose-test.yaml up redis

Generating typescript api types

The typescript types for the api can be generated by running the following script:

./generate-api-types.sh

The script creates a file in the backend/@types/manageUsersApiImport directory. By default this is for dev branch.

To use imported types you finally need to name and export them in the backend/@types/manageUsersApi.ts file.

Cypress Integration tests

The integration-tests directory contains a set of Cypress integration tests. These tests WireMock to stub the application's dependencies on the HMPPS Manage Users and HMPPS Auth RESTful APIs.

Running the feature tests

They do not need the dependent services to be running as it uses a special version of the service with wiremocked stubs for these. Feature tests may be run either from the commandline of from within IntelliJ. A choice of web browsers can be configured, though Chrome or Chrome headless are configured by default.

  • Preparation (do this whether running from commandline or IntelliJ)

    • Download the latest version of ChromeDriver and follow the installation instructions here:
       https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/downloads
       https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/getting-started
      
    • Check that a chromedriver executable is available on your path
    • Check that the versions of chromedriver and your installed chrome browser match

Running the Cypress tests

You need to fire up the wiremock server first: docker-compose -f docker-compose-test.yaml up

This will give you useful feedback if the app is making requests that you haven't mocked out. You can see the reqest log at localhost:9191/__admin/requests/ and a JSON representation of the mocks localhost:9191/__admin/mappings.

Starting feature tests node instance

A separate node instance needs to be started for the feature tests. This will run on port 3008 and won't conflict with any of the api services, e.g. hmpps-manage-users-api or hmpps-auth.

npm run start-feature:dev

Note that the circleci will run start-feature-no-webpack instead, which will rely on a production webpack build rather than using the dev webpack against the assets.

Running the tests

With the UI:

npm run int-test-ui

Just on the command line (any console log outputs will not be visible, they appear in the browser the Cypress UI fires up):

npm run int-test

Linting and unit tests

to run typescript typechecking: npm run typecheck

to run linting: npm run lint

to run jest unit tests: npm test

Phase Name Banner

To show the phase name banner add the environment variable SYSTEM_PHASE=ENV_NAME. This will trigger the banner to become visible showing the given name.
