Introduction

This repository consists of core components that are used for building the NeLS infrastructure. The NeLS system builds upon multiple external services/applications by implementing a set of micro-services and portals.
Each of the code packages found in this repository have basic README files that explain their purpose, features and basic how-tos.

Components Categorization

NeLS components can be categorized as follows:

1. Basic model definition, operations and utility packages
   • nels.commons (java)
   • nels.vertx.commons (java)
   • nels.eup.core (java)
   • nels.idp.core (java)
2. Portals
   • NeLS user portal (java)
   • NeLS administration portal (angularjs)
3. NeLS micro-services
   • master api service (java)
   • public api service (java)
   • NeLS storage service (java)
   • storebioinfo storage service (java)
   • tsd proxy service (java)
   • oauth2 service (python)
   • storage proxy service (python)
4. Command lines
   • nels.storage.commandlines (python)
   • nels.storage.statistics (python)
   • nels.test.integration (python)

External Applications

• Apache web server - hosts the NeLS admin portal application, proxies the central NeLS portal as well as the different micro services
• Apache tomcat - hosts the NeLS Portal central web application
• Postgresql database - hosts the NeLS users databases, identity databases and storebioinfo metadata databases
• Rabbit MQ service - for facilitating messages between components
• iRods service - used for data warehousing by the storebioinfo service
• Memcached
• Galaxy
