KATANA SDK for Python 2

Python 2 SDK to interface with the KATANA™ framework (https://kusanagi.io).

Requirements

• KATANA Framework 1.2+
• Python 2.7+
• libzmq 4.1.5+
• libev 4+

Installation

Enter the following command to install the SDK in your local environment:

$ pip install katana-sdk-python2

To run all unit tests or code coverage install requirements first:

$ pip install -r pip-requirements.txt

And then run all unit test with the command:

$ pytest --cache-clear

Or, for code coverage, use the command:

$ pytest -q --cov=katana --cov-report=term

Getting Started

To start using the KATANA SDK for Python 2 we'll create a Middleware that handles requests and responses, and then a simple Service.

First, define the configuration files for the example Middleware and Service.

KATANA configurations can be defined as XML, YAML or JSON. For these examples we'll use YAML.

Create a new config file for the Middleware as the following:

"@context": urn:katana:middleware
name: example
version: "0.1"
request: true
response: true
info:
  title: Example Middleware
engine:
  runner: urn:katana:runner:python3
  path: ./middleware-example.py

Now, save the config as middleware-example.yaml.

Next, create a config file for the Service as the following:

"@context": urn:katana:service
name: users
version: "0.1"
http-base-path: /0.1
info:
  title: Example Users Service
engine:
  runner: urn:katana:runner:python3
  path: ./service-users.py
action:
  - name: read
    http-path: /users/{id}
    param:
      - name: id
        type: integer
        http-input: path
        required: true

Now, save the config as service-users.yaml.

With the configuration files written we've now modelled our components.

Next, we'll create a python module that defines the Middleware component:

import logging
import json

from katana.sdk import Middleware

LOG = logging.getLogger('katana')

def request_handler(request):
    return request


def response_handler(response):
    return response


if __name__ == '__main__':
    middleware = Middleware()
    middleware.request(request_handler)
    middleware.response(response_handler)
    middleware.run()

Now, save the module as middleware-example.py.

This module defines a Middleware that processes requests and also responses, so it's called two times per request.

The request_handler is called first, before any Service call, so there we have to set the Service name, version and action to call.

To do so, change the request_handler function to the following:

def request_handler(request):
    http_request = request.get_http_request()
    path = http_request.get_url_path()
    LOG.info('Pre-processing request to URL %s', path)

    # Debug logs can also be written with the framework
    request.log('Pre-processing request to URL {}'.format(path))

    # These values would normally be extracted by parsing the URL
    request.set_service_name('users')
    request.set_service_version('0.1')
    request.set_action_name('read')

    return request

This calls the read action for version 0.1 of the users Service for every request.

The response_handler is called at the end of the request/response lifecycle, after the Service call finishes.

For the example, all responses will be formatted as JSON. To do so, change the response_handler function to the following:

def response_handler(response):
    http_response = response.get_http_response()
    http_response.set_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')

    # Serialize transport to JSON and use it as response body
    transport = response.get_transport()
    body = json.dumps(transport.get_data())
    http_response.set_body(body)

    return response

At this point there is a complete Middleware defined, so the next step is to define a Service.

Create a new python module that defines the Service as the following:

from katana.sdk import Service


def read_handler(action):
    user_id = action.get_param('id').get_value()

    # Users read action returns a single user entity
    action.set_entity({
        'id': user_id,
        'name': 'foobar',
        'first_name': 'Foo',
        'last_name': 'Bar',
    })
    return action


if __name__ == '__main__':
    service = Service()
    service.action('read', read_handler)
    service.run()

Now, save the module as service-users.py.

At this point you can add the Middleware to the Gateway config and run the example.

Happy hacking!!
