In Progress

Improve CI + Tagging of Container releases

• fixed by Philipp in https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/pull/121 :tada:

  • @Sebastian Schmittnerask @Stephen Curran or Ry  to change branch protection

    • Finally did that now

    • Ry took care of the MR

  • Merged  

Indy Node Controller

• See 2022-11-17 Indy Container Meeting #48

• Update from ID Union Network meeting: >0 companies are using a Kubernetes (open shift) setup currently

• Step1: fix https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/issues/108

  • Cristian is working on this :+1:

  • https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/pull/123

• Step 2: Test Setup for current node upgrade:

  • Spin up a Network network with indy 1.12.4 containers

  • Do an upgrade to 1.12.6

  • Using https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/tree/main/testsetup with old images

    • E.g. container release 1.1.2 is the last indy 1.12.4

Planning 2023

• No big projects from our side planned

• React to indy node upgrade, etc

• Philipp is interested in the integration of indy + node github build pipelines

Indy VDR Containers

• Christian discovered Indy VDR using home brewn indy node containers for testing.

• https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-vdr/blob/main/ci/indy-pool.dockerfile

• Christian: PR → our containers as base for their testing

• Merge after https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/pull/121

Issues

• https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/issues/103

  • fixed

• Finally reviewed and merged logging updatesafterminorchanges

  • https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/pull/83

Container

• Use smaller base images

• python-slim + pypi indy packages?

  • Phillipp: Caution: pypi packages are not identical to deb versions

  • differences regarding config files for indy-node (https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node/blob/ubuntu-20.04-upgrade/build-scripts/ubuntu-2004/prepare-package.sh)

Load Test Script by @Christian Bormann

• on hold

Alerting

• Sebastian Z finished work on slack alerting action.

• Send webhook to @Sebastian Schmittner → Forward to @Stephen Curranto add to github repo, then MR github action

• Replace scan → github security alerts or do both?

  • BOTH

  • @Sebastian Schmittner

Logging

• Stale PR https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/pull/83

• Discussion today:

  • Rather document how to edit the https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/blob/main/run/etc_indy/indy_config.py then overwriting those variables at container start through init script

  • Network Name → same!?

  • Definietly keep READE + docker logging explanation

  • → sesinsible default for logging in docker compose

  • @Sebastian Schmittner

Metrics

• Carlos: https://github.com/IDunion/indy-node-monitor

• https://github.com/WadeBarnes/indy-node-monitor/tree/monitoring-stack

• Existing Prometheus + Grafana setup by IFIS

Security

The node keys handling is currently sub optimal (env variable). Should be improved to e.g. file based setup: https://github.com/IDunion/indy-node-container/issues/52

• Cristian already has a nice setup elsewhere and offers to port it

  • https://github.com/internet-sicherheit/sovrin-container

  • Merge of IFIS repo?

Indy-Test-Automation

• Issue#102: Indy Node system tests depend on the Sovrin package

  • Improve our own testing!

Support for non-docker setup

• Helm Charts

  • Might geht interesting at some point in the future 

    

    • Potential Clients Spherity/MGM

• Podman
