Getting started =============== Kaui core mountable engine. For Kaui the UI, see [killbill-admin-ui-standalone](https://github.com/killbill/killbill-admin-ui-standalone). Kill Bill compatibility ----------------------- | Kaui version | Kill Bill version | | -----------: | ----------------: | | 0.14.y | 0.16.z | | 0.15.y | 0.18.z (Rails 4) | | 0.16.y | 0.18.z (Rails 5) | | 1.x.y | 0.19.z | Dependencies ------------ Ruby 2.4.2+ or JRuby 9.1.14.0+ required. Running Kaui locally --------------------- You can run Kaui locally by using the test/dummy app provided: ``` export RAILS_ENV=development bundle install rails db:migrate rails s ``` The Kill Bill URL can be configured through the `KILLBILL_URL` environment variable, e.g. ``` KILLBILL_URL='http://killbill.acme:8080' ``` Mounting Kaui into your own Rails app ------------------------------------- The Kaui gem comes with a `kaui` script to mount it in your existing Rails app. Kaui expects the container app to define the current_user method, which returns the name of the logged-in user. This is used by Kill Bill for auditing purposes. Migrations can be copied over to your app via: ``` bundle exec rake kaui:install:migrations ``` Finally, a Kill Bill server needs to be running for Kaui to fetch its information (see the Configuration section below). The default login credentials are admin/password. Users, Credentials, Roles and Permissions are passed through to Kill Bill. It uses Basic Auth by default, but the backend is pluggable (LDAP, ActiveDirectory, etc.). Running tests ------------- ``` rails t ``` Note: functional and integration tests require an instance of Kill Bill to test against. Development =========== Working with the kaui script ---------------------------- In order to generate the Rubygems-friendly `kaui` script, you need to build the gem and install it locally. First, build the gem in the `pkg` directory: rake build Then, install and run it from a local directory: mkdir foo gem install pkg/kaui-*.gem -i foo GEM_PATH=$PWD/foo:$GEM_PATH ./foo/bin/kaui /path/to/rails/app --path=$PWD --skip-bundle Alternatively, you can run the `kaui` script under `bin` by setting your loadpath correctly: ruby -Ilib bin/kaui /path/to/rails/app --path=$PWD --skip-bundle Releases ======== The releases are done using Jruby and require the following property `export JRUBY_OPTS='--2.0 -J-Xmx1024m'` Multi-Tenancy ============= KAUI has been enhanced to support multi-tenancy. In order to benefit from that mode, remove the properties `KillBillClient.api_key` and `KillBillClient.api_secret` from the config/initializers directory. Admin User Roles ---------------- In multi-tenancy mode, there are two kinds of users: * The **multi-tenant admin** user, which has the rights to configure the tenant information (creation of tenant, add allowed users for specific tenant, upload catalog, ...) * The **per-tenant admin** user, which operates just a given tenant Those roles and permissions are defined the same way other permissions are defined: The Shiro configuration (static config file, LDAP) in Kill Bill, will determine for each user its associated role, and the roles will have a set of available [permissions](https://github.com/killbill/killbill-api/blob/master/src/main/java/org/killbill/billing/security/Permission.java). The new permissions have been created: * TENANT_CAN_VIEW * TENANT_CAN_CREATE * OVERDUE_CAN_UPLOAD * CATALOG_CAN_UPLOAD The [enforcement in KAUI](https://github.com/killbill/killbill-admin-ui/blob/master/app/models/kaui/ability.rb) is based on the CanCan gem. Multi-tenancy screens --------------------- KAUI has been enriched with new models and new screens to manage the multi-tenancy, and those are available for the multi-tenant admin user: * The `kaui_tenants` table will list the available tenants (from KAUI point of view); note that this is redundant with the Kill Bill `tenants` table, and the reason is that the `api_secret` needs to be maintained in KAUI as well, so listing the existing tenants from Kill Bill would not work since that key is encrypted and cannot be returned. A new screen mounted on `/admin_tenants` allows to configure new tenants. The view allows to create the new tenant in Kill Bill or simply updates the local KAUI config if the tenant already exists. * The `kaui_allowed_users` table along with the join table `kaui_allowed_user_tenants` will list all the users in the system that can access specific tenants. The join table is required since a given user could access multiple tenants (e.g multi-tenant admin user), and at the same time many users could access the same tenant. A new screen mounted on `/admin_allowed_users` allows to configure the set of allowed users associated to specific tenants.
