Goal

FOLIO compatible persistent storage of loans, loan policies, circulation rules, requests, and fixed due date schedules

API

Where the API code lives

The implementation java files live in the /src/main/java/org/folio/rest/impl package. These implement the actual java interfaces, to be found in the /src/main/java/org/folio/rest/jaxrs/resource package, which are automatically generated from the raml files in /ramls/.

Corresponding API tests can be found in the /src/test/java/org/folio/rest/api package.

API documentation

The API documentation generated from the *.raml files can be found online at https://dev.folio.org/reference/api/#mod-circulation-storage

Implementation Specific Behaviours

As a FOLIO interface is limited to describing the protocol (HTTP endpoints and the structure of expected requests and responses) between the client and server there are behaviors which go beyond this definition and are implementation specific, some of which are noted below.

Only one Open Loan per Item

This implementation introduces the constraint that only one loan can be open for a given item.

HTTP Requests (either POST or PUT) which could result in two loans with the same itemId and the status of Open should be rejected with a error (422) response

Unique Position in per-item Request Queue

This implementation introduces the constraint that only one open (e.g. Open - Not yet filled) request for a given item can be at a particular position in the request queue for that item.

HTTP Requests (either POST or PUT) which could result two open requests with the same itemId and position should be rejected with a error (422) response

Known Limitations

Anonymization SQL

At the moment, this is constructed with string concatenation (it will hopefully soon be replaced by prepared statements).

The userId parameter is checked to take the form of a UUID to try to reduce the exposure of this.

Prerequisites

Required

  • Java 11 JDK
  • Maven 3.3.9
  • PostgreSQL 9.6.1 (running and listening on the default port, logged in user must have admin rights), with the following extensions
    • pgcrypto
    • unaccent
    • pg_trgm

Optional

  • Python 3.6.0 (for un-registering module during managed deployment scripts, and the lint-raml tools)

Preparation

Git Submodules

There are some common RAML definitions that are shared between FOLIO projects via Git submodules.

To initialise these please run git submodule init && git submodule update in the root directory.

If these are not initialised, the inventory-storage module will fail to build correctly, and other operations may also fail.

More information is available on the developer site.

PostgreSQL

Run the setup-test-db.sh script in the inventory-storage directory to setup Postgres with a database to be used in tests. This is only required to run tests against an external Postgres instance, the default is to use an embedded Postgres instance.

Common activities

Checking the RAML and JSON.Schema definitions

Follow the guide to use raml-cop to assess RAML, schema, and examples.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dates and times

A loan has the date and time when and item was leant to a user and when it was returned. The module expects them to be represented in RFC3339 format.

At the moment, the JSON.schema for loan does provide validation for these (it will eventually use the date-time format included in the standard when this is supported by the RAML module builder).

Design notes

Request status transition

There is database trigger for request update. It works in the following way:

Given a request with status 'Open - Awaiting pickup'
When the request is updated and new status is 'Closed - Pickup expired' or 'Closed - Cancelled'
Then an update trigger adds the property 'awaitingPickupRequestClosedDate' to the request JSONB

Such behavior is required by Expired Holds Report CSV functionality in mod-circulation
See CIRC-320

Requests Batch API

In order to go through itemId-position constraint for request table we're removing all positions for requests as the first operation of batch, before executing the updates.

Let's say we have following requests in batch package:

  • Request A;
  • Request B;
  • Request C.

Then, in order to execute them successfully and do not get constraint violation we're removing positions for these request, so we will do:

  1. UPDATE requests SET jsonb = jsonb - 'position' WHERE id IN (A, B, C);
  2. UPDATE requests SET jsonb = A WHERE id = A;
  3. UPDATE requests SET jsonb = B WHERE id = B;
  4. UPDATE requests SET jsonb = C WHERE id = C;
