# Groupware Developer Guide ## Introduction The Groupware component of OpenCloud is implemented as a (micro)service within the OpenCloud framework (see `./services/groupware/`). It is essentially providing a REST API to the OpenCloud UI clients (web, mobile) that is high-level and adapted to the needs of the UIs. The implementation of that REST API turns those high-level APIs into lower-level [JMAP](https://jmap.io/) API calls to [Stalwart, the JMAP mail server](https://stalw.art/), using our own JMAP client library in `./pkg/jmap/` with a couple of additional RFCs used by JMAP in `./pkg/jscalendar` and `./pkg/jscontact`. ## Repository The code lives in the same tree as the other OpenCloud backend services, albeit currently in the `groupware` branch, that gets rebased on `main` on a regular basis (at least once per week.) Use [the `groupware` branch](https://github.com/opencloud-eu/opencloud/tree/groupware) ```bash cd ~/src/opencloud/ OCDIR="$PWD" git clone --branch groupware git@github.com:opencloud-eu/opencloud.git ``` Note that setting the variable `OCDIR` is merely going to help us with keeping the instructions below as generic as possible, it is not an environment variable that is used by OpenCloud. ### Tools Repository Also, you might want to check out these [helper scripts in opencloud-tools](https://github.com/pbleser-oc/opencloud-tools) somewhere and put that directory into your `PATH`, as it contains scripts to test and build the OpenCloud Groupware: ```bash cd "$OCDIR/" git clone git@github.com:pbleser-oc/opencloud-tools.git ./bin echo "export PATH=\"\$PATH:$OCDIR/bin\"" >> ~/.bashrc ``` #### Tools Prerequisites Those scripts have the following prerequisites: * the [`jq`](https://github.com/jqlang/jq) JSON query command-line tool to extract access tokens, * either the [httpie](https://httpie.io/cli) (`pipx install httpie`) or [`xh`](https://github.com/ducaale/xh) (`cargo install xh --locked`) command-line HTTP clients, just out of convenience as their output is much nicer than curl's * `curl` as well, to retrieve the access tokens from Keycloak (no need for nice output there) ## Configuration Since we require having a Stalwart container running at the very least, the preferred way of running OpenCloud and its adjacent services for developing the Groupware component is by using the `opencloud_full` Docker Compose setup in `$OCDIR/opencloud/devtools/deployments/opencloud_full/`. This section will explain how to configure that Docker Compose setup for the needs of the Groupware backend. ### Hosts The default hostname domain for the containers is `.opencloud.test` Make sure to have the following entries in your `/etc/hosts`: ```ruby 127.0.0.1 cloud.opencloud.test 127.0.0.1 keycloak.opencloud.test 127.0.0.1 wopiserver.opencloud.test 127.0.0.1 mail.opencloud.test 127.0.0.1 collabora.opencloud.test 127.0.0.1 traefik.opencloud.test 127.0.0.1 stalwart.opencloud.test ``` Alternatively, use the following shell snippet to extract it in a more automated fashion: ```bash cd "$OCDIR/opencloud/devtools/deployments/opencloud_full/" perl -ne 'if (/^([A-Z][A-Z0-9]+)_DOMAIN=(.*)$/) { print length($2) < 1 ? lc($1).".opencloud.test" : $2,"\n"}' <.env\ |sort|while read n; do\ grep -w -q "$n" /etc/hosts && echo -e "\e[32;4mexists :\e[0m $n: \e[32m$(grep -w $n /etc/hosts)\e[0m">&2 ||\ { echo -e "\e[33;4mmissing:\e[0m ${n}" >&2; echo -e "127.0.0.1\t${n}";};\ done \ | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts ``` ### Compose There are two options, either 1. running the Groupware backend with OpenLDAP and Keycloak containers, more akin to a production setup; 2. running the Groupware backend using the built-in LDAP and OIDC services, for a minimalistic setup that uses less resources and is more likely to be found in a home lab setup. In either case, the Docker Compose configuration in `$OCDIR/opencloud/devtools/deployments/opencloud_full/` needs to be modified. #### Production Setup ```mermaid --- title: Production Setup --- flowchart LR oc["`opencloud`"] c["client"] kc["`keycloak`"] ol["`ldap-server`"] st["`stalwart`"] c -- http --> oc oc -- jmap --> st oc --> ol st --> ol kc --> ol c --> kc ``` Edit `$OCDIR/opencloud/devtools/deployments/opencloud_full/.env`, making the following changes (make sure to check out [the shell command-line that automates all of that, below](#automate-env-setup-prod)): * change the container image to `opencloudeu/opencloud:dev`: ```diff -OC_DOCKER_IMAGE=opencloudeu/opencloud-rolling +OC_DOCKER_IMAGE=opencloudeu/opencloud -OC_DOCKER_TAG= +OC_DOCKER_TAG=dev ``` * add the `groupware` service to `START_ADDITIONAL_SERVICES`: ```diff -START_ADDITIONAL_SERVICES="notifications" +START_ADDITIONAL_SERVICES="notifications,groupware" ``` * enable the OpenLDAP container: ```diff -#LDAP=:ldap.yml +LDAP=:ldap.yml ``` * enable the Keycloak container: ```diff -#KEYCLOAK=:keycloak.yml +KEYCLOAK=:keycloak.yml ``` * enable the Stalwart container: ```diff -#STALWART=:stalwart.yml +STALWART=:stalwart.yml ``` * optionally disable the Collabora container ```diff -COLLABORA=:collabora.yml +#COLLABORA=:collabora.yml ``` * optionally disable UI containers ```diff -UNZIP=:web_extensions/unzip.yml -DRAWIO=:web_extensions/drawio.yml -JSONVIEWER=:web_extensions/jsonviewer.yml -PROGRESSBARS=:web_extensions/progressbars.yml -EXTERNALSITES=:web_extensions/externalsites.yml +#UNZIP=:web_extensions/unzip.yml +#DRAWIO=:web_extensions/drawio.yml +#JSONVIEWER=:web_extensions/jsonviewer.yml +#PROGRESSBARS=:web_extensions/progressbars.yml +#EXTERNALSITES=:web_extensions/externalsites.yml ``` All those changes above can be automated with the following script: ```bash cd "$OCDIR/opencloud/devtools/deployments/opencloud_full/" perl -pi -e ' s|^(OC_DOCKER_IMAGE)=.*$|$1=opencloudeu/opencloud|; s|^(OC_DOCKER_TAG)=.*$|$1=dev|; s|^(START_ADDITIONAL_SERVICES=".*(?

The necessary LDAP parameters are as follows: * Bind DN: `uid=libregraph,ou=sysusers,o=libregraph-idm` * Bind Password: `admin` (or whichever password is set in the `IDM_REVASVC_PASSWORD` environment variable in `opencloud.yml`) * Base DN: `o=libregraph-idm` * Host: `localhost` * LDAP Port: none, only supports LDAPS * LDAPS Port: `9235` To access the LDAP tree, spawn a new container in the same network, e.g. like this for a Debian 12 container: ```bash docker run --network 'opencloud_full_opencloud-net' --rm \ --name "debian-${RANDOM}" -ti 'debian:12' ``` In that container, install the necessary packages to have the LDAP command-line tools: ```bash apt-get update -y && apt-get install -y ca-certificates ldap-utils ``` Alternatively, the same can be achieved with an Alpine container: ```bash docker run --network 'opencloud_full_opencloud-net' --rm \ --name "alpine-${RANDOM}" -ti 'alpine' ``` And running this command instead to install the LDAP command-line tools: ```bash apk update && apk install openldap-clients ``` Run the following command in that container, which should output a list of DNs of demo users: ```bash LDAPTLS_REQCERT=never ldapsearch -H ldaps://opencloud:9235 \ -D 'uid=reva,ou=sysusers,o=libregraph-idm' -x -w 'admin' \ -b 'o=libregraph-idm' -LLL \ '(objectClass=person)' dn ``` > [!NOTE] > The `LDAPTLS_REQCERT` environment variable is set to `never` to prevent the `ldapsearch` application to validate the TLS certificate of the LDAP server, since we are using self-signed certificates for all those services in the devtools setups. Sample output: ```ldif dn: uid=admin,ou=users,o=libregraph-idm dn: uid=alan,ou=users,o=libregraph-idm dn: uid=lynn,ou=users,o=libregraph-idm dn: uid=mary,ou=users,o=libregraph-idm dn: uid=margaret,ou=users,o=libregraph-idm dn: uid=dennis,ou=users,o=libregraph-idm ``` Alternatively, as a one-liner using an Alpine Docker image: ```bash docker run --network 'opencloud_full_opencloud-net' --rm -ti alpine:3 \ /bin/sh -c "apk update && apk add openldap-clients && exec /bin/sh -il" ``` ### Testing Keycloak > [!NOTE] > Only available in the [“production” setup](#prod-setup) To check whether it works correctly, the following `curl` command: ```bash curl -ks -D- -X POST \ "https://keycloak.opencloud.test/realms/openCloud/protocol/openid-connect/token" \ -d username=alan -d password=demo -d grant_type=password \ -d client_id=groupware -d scope=openid ``` should provide you with a JSON response that contains an `access_token` property. If it is not set up correctly, it should give you this instead: ```json {"error":"invalid_client","error_description":"Invalid client or Invalid client credentials"} ``` ### Testing Stalwart To then test the IMAP authentication with Stalwart, run the following command on your host (requires the `openssl` CLI tool): ```bash openssl s_client -crlf -connect localhost:993 ``` When then greeted with the following prompt: ```java * OK [CAPABILITY ...] Stalwart IMAP4rev2 at your service. ``` enter the following command: ```bash A LOGIN alan demo ``` to which one should receive the following response: ```java A OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev2 ...] Authentication successful ``` ## Feeding an Inbox Once a [Stalwart](https://stalw.art/) container is running (using the Docker Compose setup as explained above), use [`imap-filler`](https://github.com/opencloud-eu/imap-filler/) to populate the inbox folder via [`IMAP APPEND`](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9051.html#name-append-command): ```bash cd "$OCDIR/" git clone git@github.com:opencloud-eu/imap-filler.git cd ./imap-filler/ go run . --username=alan --password=demo \ --url=localhost:993 \ --empty=true \ --folder=Inbox \ --senders=6 \ --count=50 ``` > [!NOTE] > Note that this operation does not use the Groupware APIs or any other OpenCloud backend services either, > as it directly communicates with Stalwart via IMAPS on port `993` which is mapped on the host. For more details on the usage of that little helper tool, consult its [`README.md`](https://github.com/opencloud-eu/imap-filler/blob/main/README.md), although it is quite self-explanatory. > [!NOTE] > This only needs to be done once, since the emails are stored in a volume used by the Stalwart container. ## Setting up Stalwart Principals To make things more interesting, we might want to create some resources that are currently not captured by our LDAP structure and/or not part of our demo users, such as by * adding quota to users, to have quota limits show up in the JMAP payloads; * add groups, to have them listed as additional accounts for the users that are members of those groups; * add mailing-lists Those things can either be done using the Stalwart administration web UI, manually, or by using its [Management API](https://stalw.art/docs/api/management/endpoints/). For the latter, we have another helper tool that has the ability, among a few other things, to take a file with a desired state and apply the necessary changes accordingly to the current state. ```bash cd "$OCDIR/" git clone git@github.com:opencloud-eu/stalwart-admin.git cd ./stalwart-admin/ go run . principal import --log-level=info --activate -f "$OCDIR/opencloud/services/groupware/demo-principals.yaml" ``` ## Setting Quota in Stalwart Use the [Stalwart Management API](https://stalw.art/docs/category/management-api) to set the quota for a user if you want to test quota-related Groupware APIs. Note that users that exist in OpenCloud (specifically in the LDAP, be it OpenLDAP or the built-in IDM) are only visible in Stalwart after they have been authenticated successfully once, e.g. by retrieving a [JMAP Session](https://jmap.io/spec-core.html#the-jmap-session-resource), which can be performed using the helper script `oc-st-session` (which uses the environment variable `username` to determine the username), or using `curl` directly as follows: ```bash curl -L -k -s -u alan:demo https://stalwart.opencloud.test/.well-known/jmap ``` The following examples perform operations on the user `alan`. ### Display current Quota ```bash curl -k -s -u mailadmin:admin https://stalwart.opencloud.test/api/principal/alan | jq ``` ### Modify current Quota We will change the quota to 256 MB, and since the value is in bytes: ```bash value=$(( 256 * 1024 * 1024 )) curl -k -s -u mailadmin:admin -X PATCH https://stalwart.opencloud.test/api/principal/alan -d '[{"action":"set", "field":"quota", "value":'${value}'}]' ``` ## Building after Changes If you run the `opencloud` service as a container, use the following script to update the container image and restart it: ```bash oc-full-update ``` If you prefer to do so without that script: ```bash cd "$OCDIR/opencloud/" make -C opencloud/ clean build dev-docker cd devtools/deployments/opencloud_full/ docker compose up -d opencloud ``` If you run it from your IDE, there is obviously no need to do that. ## API Docs The REST API documentation is extracted from the source code structure and documentation using [`go-swagger`](https://goswagger.io/go-swagger/), which needs to be installed locally as a prerequisite: ```bash go install github.com/go-swagger/go-swagger/cmd/swagger@latest ``` The build chain is integrated within the `Makefile` in `services/groupware/`: ```bash cd "$OCDIR/opencloud/services/groupware/" make apidoc-static ``` That creates a static documentation HTML file using [redocly](https://redocly.com/) named `api.html` ```bash firefox ./api.html ``` Note that `redocly-cli` does not need to be installed, it will be pulled locally by the `Makefile`, provided that you have [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/) installed as a pre-requisite, which is already necessary for other OpenCloud components. ## Testing This section assumes that you are using the [helper scripts in opencloud-tools](https://github.com/pbleser-oc/opencloud-tools) as instructed above. Your main swiss army knife tool will be `oc-gw` (mnemonic for "OpenCloud Groupware"). As prerequisites, you should have `curl` and either [`http`(ie)](https://httpie.io/cli) or [`xh`](https://github.com/ducaale/xh) installed, in order to have a modern CLI HTTP client that is more helpful than plain old `curl`. * `http` can be installed as follows: `pipx install httpie`, * while `xh` can be installed as follows: `cargo install xh --locked` As for credentials, `oc-gw` defaults to using the user `alan` (with the password `demo`), which can be changed by setting the following environment variables: * `username` * `password` Example: ```bash username=margaret password=demo oc-gw //accounts/all/quotas ``` To set them more permanently for the lifetime of a shell: ```bash export username=lynn export password=demo oc-gw //accounts/all/mailboxes oc-gw //accounts/all/mailboxes/roles/inbox ``` The `oc-gw` script does the following regarding authentication: * checks whether a container named `opencloud_full-opencloud-1` is running locally * if so, whether it has basic auth enabled or not * if yes, uses basic auth directly to authenticate against the OpenCloud Proxy service that ingresses for the OpenCloud Groupware backend, using the credentials defined in the environment variables `username` and `password` (defaulting to `alan`/`demo`) * if not, always retrieves a fresh access token from Keycloak, using the credentials defined in the environment variables `username` and `password` (defaulting to `alan`/`demo`), using the "Direct Access Grant" OIDC API of Keycloak and then use that JWT for Bearer authentication against the OpenCloud Groupware REST API * if no such container is running locally, it assumes that the `opencloud` process is running from within an IDE, with its OpenCloud Proxy service listening on `https://localhost:9200` It will also save you some typing as whenever you use `//` for the URL, it will replace that by the Groupware REST API base URL, e.g. ```bash oc-gw //accounts ``` will be translated into ```bash http https://cloud.opencloud.test/groupware/accounts ``` The first thing you might want to test is to query the index, which will ensure everything is working properly, including the authentication and the communication between the Groupware and Stalwart: ```bash oc-gw // ``` Obviously, you may use whichever HTTP client you are most comfortable with. Here is how to do it without the `oc-gw` script, using [`curl`](https://curl.se/): When using the “production” setup, first make sure to retrieve a JWT for authentication from Keycloak: ```bash token=$(curl --silent --insecure --fail -X POST \ "https://keycloak.opencloud.test/realms/openCloud/protocol/openid-connect/token" \ -d username="alan" -d password="demo" \ -d grant_type=password -d client_id="groupware" -d scope=openid \ | jq -r '.access_token') ``` Then use that token to authenticate the Groupware API request: ```bash curl --insecure -s -H "Authorization: Bearer ${token}" "https://cloud.opencloud.test/groupware/" ``` When using the “homelab” setup, authenticate directly using basic auth: ```bash curl --insecure -s -u "alan:demo" "https://cloud.opencloud.test/groupware/" ``` > [!TIP] > Until everything is documented, the complete list of URI routes can be found in \ [`$OCDIR/opencloud/services/groupware/pkg/groupware/groupware_route.go`](./pkg/groupware/groupware_route.go) ## Services ### Stalwart #### Web UI To access the Stalwart admin UI, open and use the following credentials to log in: * username: `mailadmin` * password: `admin` The usual admin username `admin` had to be changed into `mailadmin` because there is already an `admin` user that ships with the default users in OpenCloud, and Stalwart always checks the LDAP directory before its internal usernames. Those credentials are configured in `devtools/deployments/opencloud_full/config/stalwart/config.toml`: ```ruby authentication.fallback-admin.secret = "$6$4qPYDVhaUHkKcY7s$bB6qhcukb9oFNYRIvaDZgbwxrMa2RvF5dumCjkBFdX19lSNqrgKltf3aPrFMuQQKkZpK2YNuQ83hB1B3NiWzj." authentication.fallback-admin.user = "mailadmin" ``` #### Restart from Scratch To start with a Stalwart container from scratch, removing all the data (including emails): ```bash cd "$OCDIR/opencloud/devtools/deployments/opencloud_full" docker compose rm stalwart --stop docker volume rm opencloud_full_stalwart-data docker compose up -d stalwart ``` #### Diagnostics If anything goes wrong, the first thing to check is Stalwart's logs, that are configured on the most verbose level (trace) and should thus provide a lot of insight: ```bash docker logs -f opencloud_full-stalwart-1 ```
