Overview
--------

The Script-Languages-Container-Tool (exaslct) is the build tool for the
script language container. You can build, export and upload
script-language container from so-called flavors which are description
how to build the script language container. You can find pre-defined
flavors in the
`script-languages-release <https://github.com/exasol/script-languages-release>`__
repository. There we also described how you could customize these
flavors to your needs.


In a Nutshell
-------------

Prerequisites
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**Note**: Since version 1.0.0 the “starter scripts” shipped with
previous version, which pulled the ``exaslct`` docker container runtime,
were removed. If you can’t use Python3, you still can use our
`AI-lab <https://github.com/exasol/ai-lab>`__ which provides VM images,
AMI images and a Docker images, all capable of building
script-language-container.

For running
^^^^^^^^^^^

In order to use this tool, your system needs to fulfill the following
prerequisites:

- Software

  - Linux

    - Python3 >= 3.10

  - `Docker <https://docs.docker.com/>`__ >= 17.05

    - with support for `multi-stage builds
      required <https://docs.docker.com/build/building/multi-stage/>`__
    - host volume mounts need to be allowed

- System Setup

  - We recommend at least 50 GB free disk space on the partition where
    Docker stores its images, on linux Docker typically stores the
    images at /var/lib/docker.
  - For the partition where the output directory (default:
    ./.build_output) is located we recommend additionally at least 10 GB
    free disk space.

Further, prerequisites might be necessary for specific tasks. These are
listed under the corresponding section.

Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~

In general, it’s good practice to install the package in a virtual
environment, using ``venv`` or ``Poetry``.

Pip via PyPi
^^^^^^^^^^^^

.. code:: bash

   python3 -m pip install exasol-script-languages-container-tool

Pipx via Pypi
^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If you plan to use ``exasol-script-languages-container-tool`` on the
command line only via the ``exaslct`` script, we suggest the
installation via ``pipx``:

.. code:: bash

   pipx install exasol-script-languages-container-tool

Usage
~~~~~

For simplicity the following examples use the script version
(``exaslct``), which will be installed together with the Python package.
The script is just an alias for ``python3 -m exasol.slc.tool.main``.

How to build an existing flavor?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Create the language container and export it to the local file system

.. code:: bash

   exaslct export --flavor-path=flavors/<flavor-name> --export-path <export-path>

or deploy it directly to the BucketFS (both http and https are
supported)

.. code:: bash

   exaslct deploy --flavor-path=flavors/<flavor-name> --bucketfs-host <hostname-or-ip> --bucketfs-port <port> \
                      --bucketfs-user w --bucketfs-password <password>  --bucketfs-name <bucketfs-name> \
                      --bucket <bucket-name> --path-in-bucket <path/in/bucket> --bucketfs-use-https 1

Once it is successfully deployed, it will print the ALTER SESSION
statement that can be used to activate the script language container in
the database.

How to activate a script language container in the database
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If you uploaded a container manually, you can generate the language
activation statement with

.. code:: bash

   exaslct generate-language-activation --flavor-path=flavors/<flavor-name> --bucketfs-name <bucketfs-name> \
                                            --bucket-name <bucket-name> --path-in-bucket <path/in/bucket> --container-name <container-name>

where <container-name> is the name of the uploaded archive without its
file extension. To activate the language, execute the generated
statement in your database session to activate the container for the
current session or system wide.

This command will print a SQL statement to activate the language similar
to the following one:

.. code:: bash

   ALTER SESSION SET SCRIPT_LANGUAGES='<LANGUAGE_ALIAS>=localzmq+protobuf:///<bucketfs-name>/<bucket-name>/<path-in-bucket>/<container-name>?lang=<language>#buckets/<bucketfs-name>/<bucket-name>/<path-in-bucket>/<container-name>/exaudf/exaudfclient[_py3]';

**Please, refer to the** `User Guide <https://exasol.github.io/script-languages-container-tool/main/user_guide/user_guide.html>`__.
**for more detailed information, how to use exalsct.**

Features
--------

- Build a script language container as docker images
- Export a script language container as an archive which can be used for
  extending Exasol UDFs
- Upload a script language container as an archive to the Exasol DB’s
  BucketFS
- Generating the activation command for a script language container
- Can use Docker registries, such as Docker Hub, as a cache to avoid
  rebuilding image without changes
- Can push Docker images to Docker registries
- Run tests for you container against an Exasol DB (docker-db or
  external db)
