This is an implementation of a database as a service api written in python + django. It will try to follow some hypermedia concepts throughout the api calls.

Below: Screenshot from the admin user.

DBaaS requires the following:

• python >= 2.7.5
• virtualenv >= 1.7.2
• virtualenvwrapper >= 3.5
• and all packages in requirements.txt file (there is a shortcut to install them)

mkvirtualenv dbaas
workon dbaas

Install the required python packages.

make pip

Create the tables structure (see the next item)

DBaaS uses south to maintain the migrations up-to-date. However, you can just run syncdb to create the table structures. There is a shortcut to help you with that, including some minimum operational data on DB.

make reset_data

Before running the test, makes sure that you have mongod running and a user admin created with password 123456.

db = db.getSiblingDB('admin')

db.addUser( { user: "admin",
              pwd: "123456",
              roles: [ "userAdminAnyDatabase", "clusterAdmin", "readWriteAnyDatabase", "dbAdminAnyDatabase" ] } )

Then install all the required packages

make pip

Run it!

make test

make run
