Service to manage access to content for enterprise users.

Setting up enterprise-access

Prerequisites

  • Set the DEVSTACK_WORKSPACE env variable (either locally or in your shell config file: .bash_rc, .zshrc, or equivalent) to the folder which contains this repo and the devstack repo. e.g export DEVSTACK_WORKSPACE=/home/<your_user>/edx
  • Set up devstack

Quick Setup

$ make docker_build
$ make dev.provision
$ make dev.up
$ make app-shell
# make requirements
# make validate  # to run full test suite

The server will run on localhost:18270

Running migrations

$ make app-shell
# python ./manage.py migrate

Setting up openedx-events

Ensure you've installed the edx_event_bus_kafka and openedx_events requirements. Entering a shell with make app-shell and then running make requirements should install these for you.

From your host, run make dev.up.with-events, which will start a local kafka container for you. Visit http://localhost:9021/clusters to access the local "Confluent Control Center". Confluent is like a cloud wrapper around vanilla Kafka.

Your devstack.py settings should already be configured to point at this event broker, and to configure enterprise-access as an openedx event consumer and produer.

We have a specific enterprise "ping" event and management command defined to test that your local event bus is well-configured. Open a shell with make app-shell and run:

./manage.py consume_enterprise_ping_events

This will consume ping events from the dev-enterprise-core topic. You may see a Broker: Unknown topic error the first time you run it. When you run your test event production below, that error will resolve (producing the event creates the topic if it does not exist). Leave the consumer running. You should see the enterprise-access-service as a registered consumer in your local confluent control center.

Now, go over to your enterprise-subsidy directory. Make sure requirements are installed, specifically the edx_event_bus_kafka and openedx_events packages. Use make app-shell in this repo and we'll produce a ping event:

./manage.py produce_enterprise_ping_event

If this event was successfully produced, you'll see a log message that says Message delivered to Kafka event bus: topic=dev-events-testing. You should also now see the dev-events-testing topic available in your local confluent control center, and even the test events that are being published to the topic.

A note on creating SubsidyRequestCustomerConfiguration Objects locally

Important note

In a devstack enviroment, login to the LMS and navigate to any MFE before creating SubsidyRequestCustomerConfiguration objects in the enterprise-access Django admin

Why

If you create a SubsidyRequestCustomerConfiguration in the Django admin, because we keep track of who changed the field, we need to grab the "who" from somewhere. In our case, we use the jwt payload header combined with the signature, which will be populated in your cookies when you go to an MFE while logged in. We can't use the edx-jwt-cookie outright because it won't be set by default when navigating to the django admin.

Analytics

This project integrates with Segment and sends events through the analytics package. Events are dispatched in endpoints that modify relevant data by calling track_event in the track app. See segment_events.rst for more details on currently implemented events.
