Existing repositories

Projects based on this template include:

• preprocessing-sfa
• cva-enduro-workflows

Create a new repository

To create a new Enduro child workflow project:

• Use this repository as a template:
  • With the link in the top right corner of this page
  • Or selecting it from the create new repository template dropdown
• Replace references from custom-enduro to, for example acme-enduro in the code.
• Update this readme file:
  • Change the heading and initial description
  • Remove the first three sections from the list above and the content
  • Update the configuration based on the workflow implementation
  • Update the Enduro childWorkflows configuration examples

Repository requirements

Projects based on this repository are expected to run as child workflow workers inside the Enduro development environment. Enduro owns the local development cluster and core services, including Temporal, MySQL and shared infrastructure. This repository contributes only the child workflow resources needed by its worker.

The default template includes a persistent volume claim called preprocessing-pvc, mounted at /home/enduro/shared in the child workflow worker. Enduro can mount the same volume in its a3m or Archivematica worker so both workers can share files. This shared-volume development setup is intended for single-node Kubernetes clusters. This volume is required for preprocessing workflow types.

Projects that do not need a shared filesystem should replace these manifests with the resources required by their own custom workers.

Check the Enduro development manual for the current development environment setup.

Configuration

The required configuration for the default custom-enduro-worker:

debug = false
verbosity = 0
sharedPath = "/home/enduro/shared"

[temporal]
address = "temporal-frontend.enduro-sdps:7233"
namespace = "default"
taskQueue = "preprocessing"
workflowName = "preprocessing"

[worker]
maxConcurrentSessions = 1

Optional BagIt bag configuration:

[bagit]
checksumAlgorithm = "sha512"

Enduro

The child workflow section for Enduro's configuration:

[[childWorkflows]]
type = "preprocessing"
namespace = "default"
taskQueue = "preprocessing"
workflowName = "preprocessing"
extract = false
sharedPath = "/home/enduro/preprocessing"

Local environment

The supported development workflow is to run tilt up from the Enduro repository and load this repository through Enduro's CHILD_WORKFLOW_PATHS mechanism.

Bring up the Enduro environment by following the Enduro development manual.

Set up

The specific requirements for this template are:

• clone this repository as a sibling of the Enduro repository
• configure CHILD_WORKFLOW_PATHS=../custom-enduro-workflows
• configure MOUNT_PREPROCESSING_VOLUME=true
• run tilt up from the Enduro repository

All other development workflow details, including .tilt.env, live updates, starting, stopping and clearing the environment, are documented in Enduro. This repository can also provide local overrides through its own .tilt.env file, including settings such as TRIGGER_MODE_AUTO.

Requirements for development

While we run the services inside a Kubernetes cluster we recommend installing Go and other tools locally to ease the development process.

• Go (1.24+)
• GNU Make and GCC

Makefile

The Makefile provides developer utility scripts via command line make tasks. Running make with no arguments (or make help) prints the help message. Dependencies are downloaded automatically.

Debug mode

The debug mode produces more output, including the commands executed. E.g.:

$ make env DBG_MAKEFILE=1
Makefile:10: ***** starting Makefile for goal(s) "env"
Makefile:11: ***** Fri 10 Nov 2023 11:16:16 AM CET
go env
GO111MODULE=''
GOARCH='amd64'
