Introduction

The JS7 offers to perform operations by the JS7 - REST Web Service API.
- For detailed information see the Technical Documentation of the REST Web Service API.
- For available CLI operations see JS7 - Unix Shell Command Line Interface.
The REST Web Service API can be accessed from Shell utilities such as curl.
In addition, a PowerShell module is available for simplified access to the REST Web Service API. This is described in the JS7 - PowerShell Module article.

The JOC Cockpit Operation Script offered for Unix Shell can be applied to perform frequently used status operations on JOC Cockpit.

The script is offered for download and can be applied for frequently used operations:

The script is available for Linux and MacOS® using bash shell.
The script terminates with exit code 0 to signal successful execution, with exit code 1 for command line argument errors and with exit code 4 for non-recoverable errors. Exit code 3 signals that no matching objects have been found.
The script is intended as a baseline example for customization by JS7 users and by SOS within the scope of professional services. Examples make use of JS7 Release 2.7.2, bash 4.2, curl 7.29.0 and jq 1.6.0.

Prerequisites

The Script requires the curl utility and the jq utility to be available from the operating system.

jq ships with the MIT license, see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.

# common options for connection to JS7 REST API
request_options=(--url=http://localhost:4446 --user=root --password=root)

# restart service: cluster, history, dailyplan, cleanup, monitor
./operate-joc.sh restart-service "${request_options[@]}" --service-type=history

# run service: dailyplan, cleanup
./operate-joc.sh run-service "${request_options[@]}" --service-type=cleanup

Checking License

Example for Checking JOC Cockpit License

# common options for connection to JS7 REST API
request_options=(--url=http://localhost:4446 --user=root --password=root)

# check license
./operate-joc.sh check-license "${request_options[@]}"
# returns response
.... License type: COMMERCIAL_VALID
.... License valid: true
.... License valid from: 2021-05-05T12:22:41Z

Getting and Storing Settings

Example for Getting and Storing Settings

# common options for connection to JS7 REST API
request_options=(--url=http://localhost:4446 --user=root --password=root)

# get settings
settings=$(./operate-joc.sh get-settings "${request_options[@]}")

# update settings
settings=$(echo "$settings" | jq '.dailyplan.days_ahead_submit.value = "4"')
settings=$(echo "$settings" | jq '.dailyplan.days_ahead_plan.value = "6"')

# store settings
./operate-joc.sh store-settings "${request_options[@]}" --settings="$settings"

Encrypting and Decrypting

Secrets can be encrypted and decrypted as explaind with JS7 - Encryption and Decryption.
Encryption/decryption require related Java libraries that are available from the ./lib sub-directory.
For creation of a Private Key and Certificate see JS7 - How to create X.509 Encryption Keys.

Example for Encrypting and Decrypting

# create Private Key
openssl ecparam -name secp384r1 -genkey -noout -out encrypt.key

# create Certificate Signing Request
openssl req -new -sha512 -nodes -key encrypt.key -out encrypt.csr -subj "/C=DE/ST=Berlin/L=Berlin/O=SOS/OU=IT/CN=Encrypt"

# create Certificate
openssl x509 -req -sha512 -days 1825 -signkey encrypt.key -in encrypt.csr -out encrypt.crt -extfile <(printf "keyUsage=critical,keyEncipherment,keyAgreement\n")


# encrypt a secret such as a password using the Certificate, the encryption result will be returned and will look like: enc:BEXbHYa...
./operate-joc.sh encrypt --in="root" --cert=encrypt.crt

# options for connection to the JS7 REST API can specify the encryption result as password and the Private Key for decryption
request_options=(--url=http://localhost:4446 --user=root --password="enc:BEXbHYa..." --key=encrypt.key --controller-id=controller)

# for example, when getting version information, the Private Key is used to decrypt the password for access to the REST API on-the-fly
./operate-joc.sh version "${request_options[@]}"

# decrypt an encrypted secret using the Private Key
./operate-joc.sh decrypt --in="enc:BEXbHYa..." --key=encrypt.key
