Run keystored in development

Generate the certificate and the private key pair for localhost if you haven't done so:

cd github.com/TosinShada/monorepo/exp/services/keystore
./tls/regen.sh

Simply choose all the default options. This will create three files: tls/server.crt, tls/server.key, and tls/server.csr.

We will only be using server.crt and server.key.

Install the keystored command:

cd github.com/TosinShada/monorepo/exp/services/keystore
go install ./cmd/keystored

Set up keystore Postgres database locally:

createdb keystore
keystored migrate up

You can undo the last migration by running

keystored migrate down

You can redo the last migration by running

keystored migrate redo

You can check whether there is any unapplied migrations by running

keystored migrate status

Run keystored in development with authentication disabled:

You might want to set the KEYSTORE_LISTENER_PORT environment variable for the keystored listener. Otherwise, the default value is port 8000.

keystored -tls-cert=tls/server.crt -tls-key=tls/server.key -auth=false serve

Before you have a valid endpoint that can handle your auth token and return a user id in plaintext, you might want to disable authentication for testing.

Run keystored in production:

There are five environment variables used for starting keystored: KEYSTORE_DATABASE_URL, DB_MAX_IDLE_CONNS, DB_MAX_OPEN_CONNS, KEYSTORE_AUTHFORWARDING_URL, and KEYSTORE_LISTENER_PORT.

• KEYSTORE_DATABASE_URL is required.
• KEYSTORE_AUTHFORWARDING_URL is required if authentication is turned on.
• DB_MAX_IDLE_CONNS and DB_MAX_OPEN_CONNS are default to 5.
• KEYSTORE_LISTENER_PORT is default to 8000.

keystored -tls-cert=PATH_TO_TLS_CERT -tls-key=PATH_TO_TLS_KEY serve

To disable authentication, you can simply add the -auth=false flag.

Build docker image:

To build docker image:

cd github.com/TosinShada/monorepo/services/keystore
make docker-build

to use custom tag:

cd github.com/TosinShada/monorepo/services/keystore
TAG=my-registry.example.com/keystore:dev make docker-build

to push image built using the command above:

cd github.com/TosinShada/monorepo/services/keystore
TAG=my-registry.example.com/keystore:dev make docker-push

Logging

You can put the log messages in a designated file with the -log-file flag as well as determine the log severity level with the -log-level flag:

keystored -log-file=PATH_TO_YOUR_LOG_FILE -log-level=[debug|info|warn|error] serve
