#REDIRECT [[Solutions]]
A '''Deployment Configurations''' is a specific combination of [[Components]] that, when assembled and deployed result in an application or service that is identifiable to an end-user as a "whole" app or service. This page is intended to explain how to assemble building block [[Components]] into running apps and services. The intended audience is technical, but more about assembling, building and deploying, as opposed to "developing."
+
 
+
Deployment configurations documented here include web apps, web services, and some where some or all of the code runs on a local client machine. Some require the [[Higgins Browser Extension]] (aka HBX). Some have been deployed to Eclipse Foundation servers and can be used for testing and and development-related purposes. Examples include a CardSpace-compatible IdP service (what Microsoft would call a "Managed Card Provider" (not to be confused with our use of the term provider)), or a MediaWiki app that supports OpenID sign-in, etc.
+
 
+
Two kinds of deployment configurations:
+
# Higgins Configurations. These are combinations of Higgins [[Components]] all of which are available from the Higgins Eclipse CVS.
+
# Higgins-based Configurations. These configurations include 3rd party code (usually also open source) that incorporates (is based on) one or more or all of the Higgins [[Components]]
+

Notes:
+
#At present we've been using Kevin Miller's Perpetual Motion browser add-on to launch the ISSd daemon. Kevin's add-on uses an xp-com (native code) plug-in to launch a local Identity Agent (currently called ISSd). The plan is to incorporate equivalent functionality within HBX either by a fresh implementation or by getting Kevin to agree to contribute some of his code.
+
#Process 2 is currently named "ISSd" it is a single native executable
+
#How HBX directly talks to RPPS Core is still under discussion
+
#H4 above is most similar to Microsoft CardSpace's architecture
+
 
+
===H1 Identity Agent (HBX + hosted IdA)===
+
* Installed locally:
+
** [[Higgins Browser Extension]] (HBX) --HBX uses an embedded [[ISS Web UI]]

==Nightly Builds==
+
Though certainly not a "deployment" in the usual sense, the Higgins project automatically builds some of the [[Components]] every night.

==Conventions Used on This Page==
+
Each Deployment Configuration is documented by a table. In cases where this is a multi-row table, there should  be a short paragraph on this page that describing how the multiple machines are used together. For example: if row/machine#1 is running Firefox with HBX and row/machine#2 is running the I-Card Manager then using the browser you'll be able to do <something>.
+
 
+
* The deployment owner is responsible for maintenance of this table
+
* Each computer involved has its own row. This row describes that computer's configuration (OS, runtime, etc.).
+
 
+
Table Columns
+
# '''Deployment Configuration''' - link to wiki page describing deployment configuration (see "Deployment Description" section below)
+
# '''OS''' - OS that this machine either (a) runs on (see URL column) or (b) has been tested on. Put in parens the OS number if more than OS instance is involved
+
# '''Runtime''' - Runtime environment for this machine (e.g. JVM & version, Tomcat & version, etc.)
+
# '''Binding''' - how will the service running on this machine be consumed
+
# '''Open''' - open enhancements and bugs (Bugzilla) for this deployment configuration: (Note: none are currently defined)
+
# '''URL''' - endpoint that hosts a test version of the service (hosted by Eclipse Foundation)
+
# '''Owner''' - person with overall responsibility for this deployment configuration (not individual components)
+

===Deployment Description===
+
This wiki page must contain the following sections:
+
# Overview --describes briefly the service running on this machine
+
# Assembly and Build
+
#* A table with a row for each Higgins component required and a row for each non-Higgins component JAR, etc required. Each row has these columns:
+
#*# Name of component/jar
+
#*# Link to description --in the case of Higgins components and projects this should be a link to the [[Components]]page#<component-name> AND the row prefix (e.g. "A" or "B")
+
# Deployment
+
#* Deployment "hints": things you might have had to do to "configure" the files. For example the STS and LDAP CP have several configuration files that need to be explained a little for anyone wanting to replicate the deployment to their own servers. Another example: Tomcat configuration
+
#* Any unusual steps related to configuring non-Higgins components
+
The Assembly and Build instructions section would start off with a bulleted list of components and other external stuff that you'll need. We can include links to the various required rows on the Components page tables as we've started doing.
