rico - RIAK connector

Maintain connections towards RIAK, and simplify some usual cases

Pools

You can set up as many pools as you want. It can be configured in sys.config

 {pools, #{
        default => #{
          pool_size => 5,
          host => "localhost",
          port => "8087",
          user => "rico",
          pw => "ricopw",
          cacertfile => {priv_dir, rico, "rootCA.crt"},
          certfile => {priv_dir, rico, "rico.crt"},
          keyfile => {priv_dir, rico, "rico.key"}
        }
      }
    }

certs

Please keep it mind. only secure connection supported. Cert path can be set with {priv_dir, app_name, "filename"} so the file will be read from the app's priv dir, or you can set absolute path like "/path/to/a/file".

Default pool

Default pool's properties can be overwritten with OS env parameters:

• RIAK_HOST for RIAK host
• RIAK_PORT for RIAK port
• RIAK_USER for RIAK user
• RIAK_PW for RIAK user's pw
• RIAK_CACERTFILE for RIAK connection's cacertfile (only full path can be used)
• RIAK_CERTFILE for RIAK connection's certfile (only full path can be used)
• RIAK_KEYFILE for RIAK connection's keyfile (only full path can be used)
• POOL_SIZE for size of the pool

Generate ROOT

## Generate Root CA and CSR
openssl genrsa -out rootCA.key 2048
openssl req -new -key rootCA.key -out rootCA.csr -subj "/C=HU/O=Systream/OU=CliServ/CN=rootCA"

openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in rootCA.csr -signkey rootCA.key -out rootCA.crt

Generate RIAK Node's cert

# riak  node's cert
openssl genrsa -out riak_node.key 2048
openssl req -new -key riak_node.key -out riak_node.csr -subj "/C=HU/O=Systream/OU=CliServ/CN=systream.hu"

openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in riak_node.csr -CA rootCA.crt -CAkey rootCA.key -CAcreateserial -out riak_node.crt

You need to set up the cert path in riak.config. You need to set 3 files

• rootCA.crt
• riak_node.key
• riak_node.crt

# generate user cert

openssl genrsa -out rico.key 2048
openssl req -new -key rico.key -out rico.csr -subj "/C=HU/O=Systream/OU=CliServ/CN=rico"

openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in rico.csr -CA rootCA.crt -CAkey rootCA.key -CAcreateserial -out rico.crt

You need for the client the following files:

• rico.key
• rico.crt
• rootCA.crt
