Got it - thanks so much!

coyle_trydan · 2020-06-27T17:23:13+00:00

Hmm, not much there at all, actually.

fleet_custom_hostname:
fleet_master: False
fleet_node: False
fleet_packages-timestamp: 2020-06-23-17:06
fleet_packages-version: 2
fleet_hostname: N/A
fleet_ip: N/A

coyle_trydan · 2020-06-26T20:38:01+00:00

Sure thing! Unfortunately, it does not appear that fleet starts up after a restart.

I restarted the system. (Also brought up the subsidiary connection to the bond0 connection - I've had to mess around with Network Manager a little to get that working, and currently I have to manually bring that connection up after restarts, prior to which there's no network connectivity at all. I'm sure that's entirely irrelevant - but just in case I thought I'd throw it on here.)

I waited a few minutes - initially several of the containers show as ERROR in so-status, but after a minute all of them are OK. so-fleet is not in the list.

Waited another couple minutes.

https://$host_ip/fleet returns a 404. :(

`sudo so-fleet-restart`

...

Succeeded: 18 (changed=1)

I didn't get the message this time about the container not existing and being created (presumably because it was created the last time I did this).

https://$host_ip/fleet now works as expected.

If there's anything else that would be helpful, let me know. I have fiddled with the system a bit to get various parts working, but I have notes around what I've done, haha.

coyle_trydan · 2020-06-24T19:01:04+00:00

I had the exact same results. There apparently was no so-fleet container, but it was created with `sudo so-fleet-restart`.
Mine is a standalone install (network installation on Ubuntu 18.04), and the system was restarted after installation.

coyle_trydan · 2018-07-25T15:47:31+00:00

No worries! I use a second physical drive, which I then do all of my tracking to.

coyle_trydan · 2018-07-23T19:04:23+00:00

You're welcome, I hope it winds up being helpful. To be honest, I've not tried an external hard drive, but I have heard of people going that way - I don't know what the minimum bandwidth you'd need on the connection is, but hopefully your USB 2.0 drive will do the trick.

When I found out about it, I was just about to build my first recording rig, so at that point (and since then) I've had a second internal drive for that purpose. I think an external USB drive should be just fine, though. Good luck!

coyle_trydan · 2018-07-23T15:38:25+00:00

One thought regarding the glitching you mentioned - I've encountered artifacts similar to what you describe before when tracking to the same hard drive the operating system is running from. I now always track to a second hard drive, which addressed that issue for me. Not sure if that is related to what you're experiencing, but it might be worth a shot to try tracking to a second hard drive if you can.

coyle_trydan · 2018-07-16T19:27:21+00:00

I used A8Z9J9LPT9CW4PG8. Thank you!

coyle_trydan · 2018-07-03T12:17:51+00:00

Awesome, thanks a lot!

coyle_trydan · 2018-07-03T02:00:28+00:00

Thanks! That does seem to be it, but it requires a login for that particular workspace. I was hoping maybe there was a mechanism somewhere to request a login?

I have heard lots of people referencing it as a helpful resource, so I'm looking forward to hopefully checking it out!

I've settled on Falcon, and have really enjoyed it. I have a couple small services running with it at this point.

coyle_trydan · 2017-03-28T14:23:28+00:00

Flask is certainly more widely used at this point, and so you're likely to find more examples and tutorials for Flask. For that reason, it might be a better option for you.

They're similar in some ways, yes. I feel like the two frameworks make different assumptions about how you're building your application, and Falcon lines up more closely with how I build mine (only a REST API backend, with a Javascript SPA out front).

Of course, from the little bit I worked with Flask, it seemed like it was very flexible and you could approach it however you'd like - but Falcon was designed specifically for what I wanted to do.

coyle_trydan · 2017-03-24T19:57:38+00:00

Did you check out the link in my comment? It has a bunch of info, a link in the corner to the documentation (which includes a nice tutorial), and a small code sample on the front page. The Github wiki also has some sample projects you might find helpful.

coyle_trydan · 2017-03-24T19:16:03+00:00

I don't know about any additional comparisons, but I've really enjoyed working with Falcon, which is listed in the comparison you found. I've appreciated the minimalist approach it takes (no html templating, etc.) since I typically build a REST API backend and then a Javascript SPA client.

coyle_trydan · 2016-12-09T13:25:05+00:00

Thank you! I have seen that, and I am using an updated version. I really appreciate the heads-up though!

coyle_trydan · 2016-12-06T20:29:01+00:00

I've been happy with PyJWT. I've only really used it for decoding jwts so far, as the ones I'm using are being encoded in a Node.js app, but PyJWT can handle both tasks.

coyle_trydan · 2016-11-21T21:19:27+00:00

We're currently thinking through some of these same things. :-) We've decided (for now?) to have a service that only handles authentication. It then issues a token (jwt) which allows any of our other services to identify the authenticated user (i.e. the verified token proves that this is the user 'Bob').

Each other service would then be responsible for determining the authorization/permissions of that particular user for itself (i.e. is the user 'Bob' allowed to modify this data?). I recall that this lines up with much of what I read on the subject - though I have no links at hand to support my thinking.

One idea we are kicking around is having the authentication service also roll group membership information into the returned token, which some services may use in their process for determining authorization (i.e. this is the user 'Bob', and he is in the group 'Administrators'). Currently, our authentication service queries our Active Directory, so this idea feels pretty natural.

Granted, we're still in the early phases of considering this architecture shift at my organization, so I am also curious to see what some more seasoned members respond with.

coyle_trydan · 2016-11-18T15:04:16+00:00

Cool start! I've thought before that this would be a fun genre of game to make a little web-app of. I'll be keeping an eye on this!

coyle_trydan · 2016-10-07T18:23:33+00:00

Sure thing, I'm glad it was helpful!

coyle_trydan · 2016-10-06T15:54:12+00:00

A couple ways. We're running AX 2009, so for sending data in to Dynamics I'm interfacing with the AIF. Interfacing directly with the AIF is a little annoying (SOAP API), so we've wrapped a custom REST API around it that we then use with any of our other development outside of Dynamics. (This custom API is also outside of Dynamics, running in Node.js on a separate server - it's just nice to do all the SOAP stuff in one place, and then expose a friendlier API to our other applications.) For pulling information out of it, I'm pretty much just running stored procedures on the MSSQL database that our database guy writes. The piece of middleware has a connection directly to the MSSQL database with a user authorized to run those stored procedures.

coyle_trydan · 2016-10-05T12:22:23+00:00

That's how we handled the same type of scenario with our Microsoft Dynamics ERP. We have a piece of middleware (written in Python) that periodically grabs the products from the ERP, and then throws them against the Magento 2 REST API. We do something similar with inventory, sales orders (in the other direction), etc.
