cellenics-utils

Your one-stop shop for managing Cellenics infrastructure. This is a Python CLI application you can use to manage common tasks related to Cellenics infrastructure.

Setup

After cloning the repository, do the following:

make install

If you are going to be developing cellenics-utils please install also the development dependencies with:

make develop

You can verify that the command has been successfully installed with:

make test

If the test was successful, you should be able to access cellenics-utils by typing:

cellenics --help

As a prerequisite for running all scripts in this repo, you will need a GitHub Personal Access Token with full access to your account. This token should be given ALL scopes available. You can generate one here. Make sure you note down this and supply it when required. Utilities can accept this token in two ways:

  • either by having it available as the environment variable GITHUB_API_TOKEN
  • or by passing it as an option with the -t flag.

For example:

GITHUB_API_TOKEN=mytoken cellenics stage

or

cellenics stage -t mytoken

Using the environment variable means you can put the token in your .bashrc or .zshrc file, thereby avoiding typing it again and again. You can then simply do:

cellenics stage

Other Environment Variables

  • CELLENICS_NICK is optional and used to override the USER environment variable as the first part of the name of the staging environments created by you: ${CELLENICS_NICK:-${USER}}-....

  • COGNITO_PRODUCTION_POOL and COGNITO_STAGING_POOL: The Cognito pool ids used for user account administration. It is recommended to set this interactively. For example, run export COGNITO_PRODUCTION_POOL=eu-west-1_BLAH before running cellenics account ....

Utilities

configure-repo

Configures a repository using best practices. You can supply a repository name as in:

cellenics configure-repo ui

The script will ensure the repository is configured according to the current best practices for the repository. You can see more details about the configuration in configure-repo/configure_repo.py script.

rotate-ci

Rotates the AWS access keys used by the CI runners, with the exception of iac. You must have sufficient AWS rights and github access token to use this utility. Credentials will be fetched in the same way as they are for the AWS CLI.

You can run:

cellenics rotate-ci

and the script should take care of the rest.

stage

Deploys a staging environment. This utility takes a list of deployments as arguments. A deployment can be one of the following:

  • A repository name that publishes a staging candidate file to the releases repo, e.g. ui. In this case, the manifest fetched is the one for the master branch of the ui repository.
  • A repository name and a pull request ID, e.g. ui/12. In this case, the manifest fetched is the one for the pull request 12 branch of the ui repository.

The default deployments for all stage commands is ui, api, worker. If you wish to deploy a different version of these, you can specify that manually. Then, at the bare minimum, you can run:

cellenics stage

If you wish to test changes to you made to the API available under pull request 25, you can run:

cellenics stage api/25

This will compose a sandbox comprising api as found under pull request 25, as well as ui and worker as found under master.

The utility will launch an interactive wizard to guide you through creating your environment.

Pinning

Pinning is a feature of the utility. When you pin a deployment, you ensure that no changes made to the manifest file after the fact will effect the sandbox you are creating. For example, if you want to make sure your ui feature will not be affected by changes to pushes to master in the api repository after you create the sandbox, you have the option to pin api to prevent this from happening.

The default behavior is to pin all deployments that source from master. This ensures that the sandbox is immutable, i.e. anything not currently being tested in the sandbox will not change unpredictably after it's deployed. Deployments that source from a pull request branch are by default not pinned, as these are commonly the branches that a developer would push features to mid-development.

unstage

Removes a staging environment. You must specify the sandbox ID of the staging environment deployed previously from here. Then, run

cellenics unstage my-sandbox-id

to remove your deployment and delete staged environment.

experiment

Manages experiment's data and configuration. See cellenics experiment --help for more details.

experiment download

Download files associated with an experiment.

cellenics experiment download -e my-experiment-id -i environment

Currently download of the following files is supported:

  • Sample files
  • Raw RDS file
  • Processed RDS file
  • Cell sets file

Note this command needs cellenics rds tunnel running in another tab to work. By default, cellenics rds tunnel connects to staging. If you want to use production you need to specify it with the -i option (cellenics rds tunnel -i production).

account

A set of helper commands to aid with managing Cellenics account information (creating user accounts, changing passwords). See cellenics account --help for more information, parameters and default values. Needs environmental variables COGNITO_PRODUCTION_POOL and/or COGNITO_STAGING_POOL.

rds

Includes many rds connection-related mechanisms. See cellenics rds --help for more details.

In order to run these you will need the following tools installed:

installing

jq brew install jq

psql brew install postgresql

aws ssm cli

curl "https://s3.amazonaws.com/session-manager-downloads/plugin/latest/mac/sessionmanager-bundle.zip" -o "sessionmanager-bundle.zip"
unzip sessionmanager-bundle.zip
sudo /usr/local/bin/python3.6 sessionmanager-bundle/install -i /usr/local/sessionmanagerplugin -b /usr/local/bin/session-manager-plugin

These commands have a --profile (-p) parameter that represents one of the credential sets stored usually in ~/.aws/credentials. By adding more than one credential set here, you can run, for example, cellenics rds tunnel -p {first_profile_name} -lp 5432 cellenics rds tunnel -p {second_profile_name} -lp 5433

This will establish 2 tunnels that can be used to connect to the dbs in the first and second accounts corresponding to the profiles simultaneously.

rds tunnel

Sets up an ssh tunneling/port forwarding session for the rds server in a given environment.

Example: set up an ssh tunnel to one of the staging rds endpoints cellenics rds tunnel -i staging

rds run

Run a command in the database cluster using IAM if necessary. Important: If you're not trying to connect in development, you'll need to run cellenics rds tunnel -i staging first in a different terminal.

Example: login into postgre console in staging cellenics rds run psql

Example: dump the in staging cellenics rds run psql

See cellenics rds run --help for more details.

rds migrator

Run Knex migration commands for development and staged environments.

Example: Migrate development database (inframock must be running) cellenics rds migrator

Example: Undo last migration in development (inframock must be running) cellenics rds migrator -- migrate:down

Example: Migrate database in staged environment cellenics rds migrator -i staging -s <sandbox_id>

Example: Rollback all migrations in staged environment cellenics rds migrator -i staging -s <sandbox_id> -- migrate:rollback --all

See cellenics rds migrator --help for more details.
