series-rest-api architecture overview

Description

Thin Web binding API to access timeseries data.

The Sensor Web Server Helgoland is a REST API provides an access layer to sensor data via RESTful Web binding with different output formats like json, pdf or png. It provides a well defined Sevice Provider Interface (SPI) which can be implemented by arbitrary backend services to make data available via the API

The Sensor Web Server Helgoland provides a thin access layer to sensor and observation data via RESTful Web binding. In addition, it offers several IO functionalities e.g.

  • prerendering of series data,
  • generalization,
  • overlaying of data from multiple series
  • conversion of raw data to other formats like pdf and png

Output formats for stationary, mobile, insitu and remote sensors are available, each filterable by metadata parameters. This enables clients to access the data via different approaches, e.g. to filter all series by phenomena first or by a special procedure.

Next to the Web API, a Service Provider Interface (SPI) defines the underlying interface for data providing backends. With this, the API is flexible enough to be put ontop of arbitrary data stores. Its modular design enables a seamless integration into existing Web applications.

The following main frameworks are used to provide this API:

Changelog

Contributing

We try to follow the GitFlow model, although we do not see it that strict.

However, make sure to do pull requests for features, hotfixes, etc. by making use of GitFlow. Altlassian provides [a good overview] (https://www.atlassian.com/de/git/workflows#!workflow-gitflow). of the most common workflows.

Quick Start

Client development

The Web API documentation gives a detailed overview on how to access the data provided by the API. Available I/O functions are described there, too, like generelization, chart rendering/overlay, etc.

The API documentation is in the 52°North wiki: https://wiki.52north.org/bin/view/SensorWeb/SensorWebClientRESTInterface

API Configuration

How to provide a custom SPI implementation is beyond this section. See (...TBD...) to get detailed information on this.

Logging

Generalizer

In file WEB-INF/classes/config-general.json add

"generalizer": {
    "defaultGeneralizer": "lttb",
    "noDataGapThreshold": 5
}

The parameters are described on the official Web API documentation.

Prerendering

Prerendering is supported for measurement data.

Prerendering configuration is a task which can be run regularly by a scheduler. Configuration is done as a PreRenderingJob bean. Checkout WEB-INF/spring/spi-impl-dao_tasks.xml how to set up a prerendering job. The actual rendering configuration for each dataset/phenomenon can be referenced within the job bean.

Rendering configuration tells how to render the actual dataset information. It comprises a phenomenonStyles section (valid for a set of dataset for a given phenomenon) and a datasetStyles section (which actually overrides a phenomenon style of a specific dataset) Each section can override parameters made in the generalConfig.

Only those datasets are prerendered having a match either in phenomenonStyles or datasetStyles.

Date formatting

In file WEB-INF/spring/config-general.json you can set timeformat Parameter. Please checkout the Java SimpleDateFormat rules how the format has to look like.
