Shock

About:

Shock is a platform to support computation, storage, and distribution. Designed from the ground up to be fast, scalable, fault tolerant, federated.

Shock is RESTful. Accessible from desktops, HPC systems, exotic hardware, the cloud and your smartphone.

Shock is for scientific data. One of the challenges of large volume scientific data is that without often complex metadata it is of little to no value. Store and query(in development) complex metadata.

Shock is an data management system. Annotate, anonymize, convert, filter, quality control, statically subsample at line speed bioinformatics sequence data. Extensible plug-in architecture(in development).

Most importantly Shock is still very much in development. Be patient and contribute.

Shock is actively being developed at github.com/MG-RAST/Shock.


To build: --------- Unix/Macintosh

Shock (requires go=>1.0.0 golang.org/doc/install/source, git, mercurial, bazaar):

go get github.com/MG-RAST/Shock/...

To run (additional requires mongodb=>2.0.3):

shock-server -conf <path_to_config_file>

Configuration: -------------- The Shock configuration file is in INI file format. There is a template of the config file located at the root level of the repository.

Authentication: --------------- Shock currently supports two forms of Authentication. Http Basic Auth with local user support and Globus Online Nexus oauth implementation.

Basic Auth:

  • configure shock with Auth.type = basic
  • create user via api /user
  • set headers in api requests (curl --user username:password)

Globus Online:

shock.conf

type=basic
globus_token_url=<url_to_retrieve_tokens>
globus_profile_url=<url_to_retrieve_user_profile>
  • use globus online username & password in api requests (curl --user username:password ...)
  • use globus online token in api requests (curl -H "Authorization: Globus-Goauthtoken TOKEN" ...)

}

### User:
  • uuid: unique identifier
  • name: username
  • passwd: all responds are masked "**********"
  • admin: boolean
user example:
{ 
    "D": {
        "uuid": "67394386a4acac62fdb851d78691ee48"
        "name": "joeuser", 
        "passwd": "**********", 
        "admin": false, 
    }, 
    "E": null, 
    "S": 200
}

### Index:

Currently there is support for two types of indices: virtual and file.

virtual index:

A virtual index is one that can be generated on the fly without support of precalculated data. The current working example of this is the size virtual index. Based on the file size and desired chunksize the partitions become individually addressable.

file index:

Currently in early development the file index is a json file stored on disk in the node's directory.

# abstract form
{
	index_type : <type>,
	filename : <filename>,
	checksum_type : <type>,
	version : <version>,
	index : [
		[<position>,<length>,<optional_checksum>]...
	]
}

# example
{
	"index_type" : "fasta",
	"filename" : "none",
	"checksum_type" : "none",
	"version" : 1,
	"index" : [[0,1861]]
}



API

Response wrapper:

All responses from Shock currently are in the following encoding.

{
    "D": <data in json or null>,
    "E": <error message or null>, 
    "S": <http status of request>
}

### GET /

Description of resources available through this api

curl -X GET http://<host>[:<port>]/
returns
{"resources":["node", "user"],"url":"http://localhost:8000/","documentation":"http://localhost/","contact":"admin@host.com","id":"Shock","type":"Shock"}

### POST /node

Create node

  • optionally takes user/password via Basic Auth. If set only that user with have access to the node
  • accepts multipart/form-data encoded
  • to set attributes include file field named "attributes" containing a json file of attributes
  • to set file include file field named "upload" containing any file or include field named "path" containing the file system path to the file accessible from the Shock server
curl -X POST [ see Authentication ] [ -F "attributes=@<path_to_json>" ( -F "upload=@<path_to_data_file>" || -F "path=<path_to_file>") ] http://<host>[:<port>]/node
returns
{
    "D": {<node>},
    "E": <error message or null>, 
    "S": <http status of response (also set in headers)>
} 

### GET /node

List nodes

  • optionally takes user/password via Basic Auth. Grants access to non-public data
  • by adding ?skip=N you get the nodes starting at N+1
  • by adding ?limit=N you get a maximum of N nodes returned

All attributes are queriable. For example if a node has in it's attributes "about" : "metagenome" the url

/node/?query&about=metagenome

would return it and all other nodes with that attribute. Address of nested attributes like "metadata": { "env_biome": "ENVO:human-associated habitat", ... } is done via a dot notation

/node/?query&metadata.env_biome=ENVO:human-associated%20habitat

Multiple attributes can be selected in a single query and are treated as AND operations

/node/?query&metadata.env_biome=ENVO:human-associated%20habitat&about=metagenome

Note: all special characters like a space must be url encoded.

example
curl -X GET [ see Authentication ] http://<host>[:<port>]/node/[?skip=<skip>&limit=<count>][&query&<tag>=<value>]
returns
{
    "D": {[<array of nodes>]},
    "E": <error message or null>, 
    "S": <http status of request>
}

### GET /node/{id}

View node, download file (full or partial)

  • optionally takes user/password via Basic Auth
  • ?download - complete file download
  • ?download&index=size&part=1[&part=2...][chunksize=inbytes] - download portion of the file via the size virtual index. Chunksize defaults to 1MB (1048576 bytes).
curl -X GET [ see Authentication ] http://<host>[:<port>]/node/{id}
returns
{
    "D": {<node>},
    "E": <error message or null>, 
    "S": <http status of request>
}

### PUT /node/{id}

Modify node, create index

  • optionally takes user/password via Basic Auth

Modify:

  • Once the file or attributes of a node are set they are immutiable.
  • accepts multipart/form-data encoded
  • to set attributes include file field named "attributes" containing a json file of attributes
  • to set file include file field named "upload" containing any file or include field named "path" containing the file system path to the file accessible from the Shock server
curl -X PUT [ see Authentication ] [ -F "attributes=@<path_to_json>" ( -F "upload=@<path_to_data_file>" || -F "path=<path_to_file>") ] http://<host>[:<port>]/node/{id}
returns
{
    "D": {<node>},
    "E": <error message or null>, 
    "S": <http status of request>
}

**Create index:**
  • currently available index types: size, record (for sequence file types)
example
curl -X PUT [ see Authentication ] http://<host>[:<port>]/node/{id}?index=<type>
returns
{
    "D": null,
    "E": <error message or null>, 
    "S": <http status of request>
}

### POST /user

Create user (basic auth only)

Requires Basic Auth encoded as 'username:password'. To create an admin user 'username:password:secret-key:true' where secret-key was specified at server start.

# regular user (when config Anonymous:create-user=true)
curl -X POST --user joeuser:1234 http://<host>[:<port>]/user

# regular user (when config Anonymous:create-user=false)
curl -X POST --user joeuser:1234:supersupersecret:false http://<host>[:<port>]/user    

# admin user
curl -X POST --user joeuser:1234:supersupersecret:true http://<host>[:<port>]/user
returns
{
    "D": {<user>},
    "E": <error message or null>, 
    "S": <http status of request>
}

### GET /user/{id}

View user (basic auth only)

Requires Basic Auth encoded username:password. Regular user are able to see their own information while Admin user are able to access all.

curl -X GET --user joeuser:1234 http://<host>[:<port>]/user/{id}
returns
{
    "D": {<user>},
    "E": <error message or null>, 
    "S": <http status of request>
}

### GET /user

List users (basic auth only)

Requires Basic Auth encoded username:password. Restricted to Admin users.

curl -X GET --user joeadmin:12345 http://<host>[:<port>]/user
returns
{
    "D": {[<user>,...]},
    "E": <error message or null>, 
    "S": <http status of request>
}
