compliance-server

This is a stand alone server written in go. It is designed to make Compliance protocol requests to other organizations. You can connect to it from the bridge server or any other server that can talk to it (check API section).

Downloading the server

Prebuilt binaries of the bridge-server server are available on the releases page.

Platform	Binary file name
Mac OSX 64 bit	bridge-darwin-amd64
Linux 64 bit	bridge-linux-amd64
Windows 64 bit	bridge-windows-amd64.exe

Alternatively, you can build the binary yourself.

Config

The compliance.cfg file must be present in a working directory (you can load another file by using -c parameter). Here is an example configuration file. Config file should contain following values:

• external_port - external server listening port (should be accessible from public)
• internal_port - internal server listening port (should be accessible from your internal network only!)
• needs_auth - set to true if you need to do sanctions check for payment receiver
• network_passphrase - passphrase of the network that will be used with this bridge server:
  • test network: Test SDF Network ; September 2015
  • public network: Public Global DiamNet Network ; September 2015
• database - This database is used internally to store memo information and to keep track of what FIs have been authorized to receive customer info.
  • type - database type (mysql, postgres)
  • url - url to database connection. IMPORTANT The compliance server must not use the same database as the bridge server.
    • for mysql: user:password@(host:port)/dbname (more info)
    • for postgres: postgres://user:password@host/dbname?sslmode=sslmode (more info)
• keys
  • signing_seed - The secret seed that will be used to sign messages. Public key derived from this secret key should be in your diamnet.toml file.
  • encryption_key - The secret key used to decrypt messages. Not working yet.
• callbacks
  • sanctions - Callback that performs sanctions check. Read Callbacks section.
  • ask_user - Callback that asks user for permission for reading their data. Read Callbacks section.
  • fetch_info - Callback that returns user data. Read Callbacks section.
  • tx_status - Callback that returns user data. Read Callbacks section.
• tls (only when running HTTPS external server)
  • certificate_file - a file containing a certificate
  • private_key_file - a file containing a matching private key
• log_format - set to json for JSON logs
• tx_status_auth - authentication credentials for /tx_status endpoint.
  • username
  • password - minimum 10 chars

Check compliance_example.cfg.

Getting started

After creating compliance.cfg file, you need to run DB migrations:

./compliance --migrate-db

Then you can start the server:

./compliance

API

Content-Type of requests data should be application/x-www-form-urlencoded.

Callbacks

The Compliance server will send callback POST request to URLs you define in the config file. Content-Type of requests data will be application/x-www-form-urlencoded.

callbacks.sanctions

If set in the config file, this callback will be called when sanctions checks need to be performed. If not set the compliance server will act as if the sanction check passes.

Request

sender	Sender info JSON

The customer information that is exchanged between FIs is flexible but the typical fields are:

• Full Name

Response

Respond with one of the following status codes:

• 200 OK when sender/receiver is allowed and the payment should be processed,
• 202 Accepted when your callback needs some time for processing,
• 400 Bad Request when sender info is invalid.
• 403 Forbidden when sender/receiver is denied.

Any other status code will be considered an error.

When 202 Accepted is returned the response body should contain JSON object with pending field which represents the estimated number of seconds needed for processing. For example, the following response means to try the payment again in an hour.

When 400 Bad Request is returned the response body should contain JSON object with error field with error string.

{"pending": 3600}

Building

gb is used for building and testing.

Given you have a running golang installation, you can build the server with:

gb build

After a successful build, you should find bin/bridge in the project directory.

Running tests

gb test
