Description

This tool is for rapid universal extension and universal template project creation. This tool is written on Python and can work on Windows or Linux platforms.

All the configuration is located in .uip_config.yml file located on the script folder or home folder of the user or you can use a configuration by using --config option.

Setup

• Install quip from pip

  pip install --upgrade quip-cli
  

• Check the version

  quip --version
  

• Check configuration

  quip config
  

• Set the path of the baseline projects to source: and template_source: fields in .uip_config.yml file. Folder paths must be full path not relative paths.

• Update the fields in the .uip_config.yml file

Troubleshooting

• Contact: [e-mail] for any questions.

Universal Extension Operations

Create empty extension

quip new ue-new-extension

Bootstrap an extension

This command will

• initialize a new extension
• copy all files from ue-baseline project (except some folders)
• update the config files
• update the SysID of the template.json file
• create fields.yml file

quip bootstrap ue-bs-extension

Clone existing extension

This command will

• initialize a new extension
• copy the src folder from the source project
• update the config files
• update the SysID of the template.json file

quip clone ue-cloned-extension ..\ue\ue-aws-m2

Update Existing Extension

quip update ue-cloned-extension

To update the SysID values add --update-uuid (or -u) parameter

quip update ue-cloned-extension --uuid

To update the new_uuid values add --new-uuid (or -n) parameter. For any new object you can use a keyword like "new_uuid" as value and it will be automatically updated with this command.

quip update ue-cloned-extension --new-uuid

Delete an extension folder

quip delete ue-cloned-extension

Create ICON file

This command will find all the image files under src/templates/ folder (it will ignore template_icon.png and any file that ends with "_48x48.png") and convert them to 48x48 size PNG files. quip will create new files with name *_48x48.png for each image file. If there is only one image file than it will also update the template_icon.png file.

quip icon

If you don't have any image file, you can also create one by using --generate parameter.

Universal Template Operations

Create empty template

quip new ue-new-extension

Bootstrap a Universal Template

This command will

• copy all files from ut-baseline project (except some folders)
• update the config files
• update the SysID of the template.json file
• Upload the new template to controller
• create fields.yml file

quip bootstrap ut-bs-extension --template

Clone existing template

This command will

• initialize a new template
• copy the src folder from the source project
• update the config files
• update the SysID of the template.json file
• create fields.yml file

quip clone ut-cloned-extension ..\ue\ut-aws-m2 --template

Download a Universal Template

This command will download the template.json, script files and ICON of the template.

This command will

• if the folder does not exists
  • bootstrap a new universal template
• download the teplate zip
• extract template.json and template_icon.png from zip
• create script files
• create fields.yml file

quip download Snowflake --template

Upload Universal Template

This command will not update the Universal Template and the ICON.

quip upload Snowflake --template

Update Existing Template

quip update ut-cloned-extension

To update the SysID values add --update-uuid (or -u) parameter

quip update ut-cloned-extension --uuid

To update the new_uuid values add --new-uuid (or -n) parameter. For any new object you can use a keyword like "new_uuid" as value and it will be automatically updated with this command.

quip update ut-cloned-extension --new-uuid

Delete a template folder

quip delete ut-cloned-extension

Build an Universal Template

This command will create a zip file for universal templates. This command will not work for universal extensions because uip build command already has this function.

The zip file will be created under build folder.

quip build ut-databricks -t

Create ICON file

This command will find all the image files under src/templates/ folder (it will ignore template_icon.png and any file that ends with "_48x48.png") and convert them to 48x48 size PNG files. quip will create new files with name *_48x48.png for each image file. If there is only one image file than it will also update the template_icon.png file.

quip icon

If you don't have any image file, you can also create one by using --generate parameter.

Using different config file

You can use --config option to select the config file you want to use. This option will allow to use different controllers while downloading or uploading or using different baseline projects based on the project you will create. For example in the following example, quip will download Snowflake universal template from Atlanta Controller.

quip download Snowflake --template --config ~/.uip_config_atlanta.yml

Display and update the version of the template/extension

This command will look for multiple files and will try to find the version information. It will show the versions in the files and also will display the possible new versions.

quip version

You can update the version by using 3 different update level: minor, major or release. Minor will update the last part of the version, major will update the middle value and release will update the first value. For example if the current version is 5.22.0, these are the possible next versions;

RELEASE:  6.0.0
MAJOR:  5.23.0
MINOR:  5.22.1

To update the version you can use this command.

quip version minor

if you want to change the version to a specific value, you can use the --force option. For example the following command will change the version to 5.22.4

quip version --force 5.22.4

If you have different version in the different files, in this case you can also use --force option to update them to a specific version. If there are multiple versions you can not use minor, major or release options.

Version Files configuration

By default quip will check the following files.

• src/extension.yml
• script.yml
• src/extension.py
• src/init.py
• src/templates/script*

You can change this configuration in your .uip_config.yml file. Here is a sample configuration. Quip will use the default configuration if you don't have any configuration in the config.

defaults:     # Default values
  template: ue-task                     # default template for uip init command
  bootstrap:

You can also use different configuration files if needed.

quip -c ~/.uip_config_sample.yml version

Updating Universal Template/Extesion Fields

quip will automatically create a file called fields.yml on the root of the project folder. This will will have yaml representation of the fields. You can modify this file and update the template.json file with the new values.

Update Fields

This command will

• Convert the yaml file into json format
• Update the template.json file
• Dump the new fields back to fields.yml file to add the Field Mapping values

quip fields --update

Dump Fields

This command will convert the fields information from template.json file and create/update fields.yml file.

quip fields --dump

Print Sample Code

This command will print some sample code to assign the fields or define dynamic choice fields.

quip fields --update --code

Output:

self.action = fields.get("action", [None])[0]
self.credentials = { "user": fields.get("credentials.user", None), "password": fields.get("credentials.password", None) }
self.end_point = fields.get("end_point", None)
self.region = fields.get("region", None)
self.application = fields.get("application", [None])[0]
self.batch_format = fields.get("batch_format", [None])[0]
self.jcl_file_name = fields.get("jcl_file_name", None)
self.jcl_file_path = fields.get("jcl_file_path", None)
self.script_name = fields.get("script_name", None)
self.jcl_file_name_temp = fields.get("jcl_file_name_temp", None)
self.application_id = fields.get("application_id", None)
self.batch_execution_id = fields.get("batch_execution_id", None)
self.step_name = fields.get("step_name", None)
self.procstep_name = fields.get("procstep_name", None)
self.templib = fields.get("templib", None)
self.parameters = fields.get("parameters", None)

@dynamic_choice_command("application")
def get_application(self, fields):
    _fields = []
    return ExtensionResult(
    rc = 0,
    message = "Available Fields: '{}'".format(_fields),
    values = _fields
    )

  The following example will show the application_id field if the action field is start-batch or sync-start-batch

    - application_id: Text
      start: true
      restriction: Output Only
      field_mapping: Text Field 1
      show_if:
        action: start-batch,sync-start-batch
  

  Other options:

  • required: If the field will be required if visible, set the value to true.
  • no_space: If the field will not reserve any space if hidden, set the value to false. Default: true
  • preserve_value: The value of this field will be stored even the field is not visible. Default: false

  Require If

  If the field will be required based on another field, in this case you can use the require_if option. First element will be name of the dependent field and value of the element will be the condition.

    - task_name: Text

  List of raw options:

  • booleanNoValue
  • booleanValueType
  • booleanYesValue
  • choiceSortOption
  • defaultListView
  • preserveOutputOnRerun

Setup External Systems

Quip will automatically create Repositories or Jobs in external systems. The main purpose is to have GitLab Repository, Jenkins Job, SonarQube Project and WebHook configuration between GitLab and Jenkins.

quip setup

The output of the command will be similar to that one.

GitLab Setup

The processing logic of quip is like this

• Check if there is .git/config file.
  • If so,
    • check the repository name of remote system with name origin
    • Check if the repository exists in GitLab
  • If not create the repository
• Ask for new repository group. It will list the group from GitLab system.
• Check if there is a repository already exists in GitLab
  • If so,
    • Print information how to add a remote system
  • If not create the repository

Jenkins Setup

The processing logic of quip is like this

• Map the GitLab group to group in Jenkins. This will be importan if the group names are different GitLab and Jenkins.
• Check if Jenkin Job exists
• If not,

SonarQube Setup

The processing logic of quip is like this

• Check if there is a mapping for the Jenkins Group
• If so,
  • Create the Project if it doesn't exists
  • Update Security Gate of the Project
• If not,
  • No need to create SonarQube project for that group
