immugw

immugw is a REST proxy that connects to immudb and provides a RESTful interface for applications. We recommend running immudb and immugw on separate machines to enhance security.

You may download the immugw binary from the latest releases on Github. Once you have downloaded immugw, rename it to immugw, make sure to mark it as executable, then run it. The following example shows how to obtain v1.1.0 for linux amd64:

$ wget https://github.com/codenotary/immugw/releases/download/v1.1.0/immugw-v1.1.0-linux-amd64
$ mv immugw-v1.1.0-linux-amd64 immugw
$ chmod +x immugw

# run help to find out about possible arguments
$ ./immugw help

# and run immugw in the background
$ ./immugw -d --immudb-address {immudb-server-address}

Alternatively, you may pull immudb docker image from DockerHub and run it in a ready-to-use container:

$ docker run -it -d -p 3323:3323 --name immugw --env IMMUGW_IMMUDB_ADDRESS={immudb-server-address} codenotary/immugw:latest

Build from sources

Building binaries requires a Linux operating system.

To build the binaries yourself, simply clone immugw repository and run:

$ make all

immugw can be cross compiled for different systems and architectures by setting GOOS and GOARCH variables, i.e.:

GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 make all

To build immugw docker container locally:

docker build -t myown/immugw:latest -f Dockerfile .

Installing with immuadmin

# install immugw service
$ ./immugw service install

# check current immugw service status
$ ./immugw service status

# stop immugw service
$ ./immugw service stop

# start immugw service
$ ./immugw service start

The Linux service is using the following defaults:

File or configuration	location
all configuration files	/etc/immudb
pid file	/var/lib/immudb/immugw.pid
log files	/var/log/immudb

Configuration

immugw can be configured using environment variables, flags or a config file.

• immugw --help shows you all available flags and environment variables.
• /etc/immudb/immugw.toml is used as a default configuration file

### RESTful API reference

You can find the swagger schema here:

swagger immugw

If you want to run the Swagger UI, simply run the following Docker command after you cloned this repo:

$ wget https://github.com/codenotary/immudb/blob/master/pkg/api/schema/schema.swagger.json
$ docker run -d -it -p 8081:8080 --name swagger-immugw -v ${PWD}/schema.swagger.json:/openapi.json -e SWAGGER_JSON=/openapi.json  swaggerapi/swagger-ui

### immugw as auditor immugw can be also run as auditor.

$ ./immugw --audit

If you are running immugw as a service, you need to edit /etc/immudb/immugw.toml and add the following section:

audit = true # false is default
audit-interval = "5m" # suffixes: "s", "m", "h", examples: 10s, 5m 1h
audit-username = "" # when immudb authentication is enabled, use read-only user credentials here
audit-password = "" # and the password
