24.1221 (Gdrive)

I started the API sandbox project in September 2024. The sandbox demonstrates API and API doc tools. Recent examples (full list at Deployment history):

24.1207 safe-plateau-00795-90ec3e27e4a0.herokuapp.com/db/ (Django on Heroku, following Heroku's GS) (docx #131c)
24.1126: terra.ziptieai.net (http) (Django, Docker, ECS, EC2, using Terraform; will add SSL soon) (docx #235)

API sandbox overview:

Why a sandbox? (short, mid, and long term goals)
Deployment history (public URLs)
API/API-doc examples
Workflows
"AI" (Copilot/ChatGPT)
Github repos
Gdrive docs

The 5 main sections of the API sandbox:

1 Dev local (gdrive).
- API docs: Swagger, Sphinx, Swashbuckle.
- APIs: Django, Flask, FastAPI, Netlify, Nextjs, Nestjs, Nodejs.
2 Deploy (gdrive).
- Deployments (not AWS): Gitbook, Railway, Scalar, Pythonanywhere, Docker, NGROK.
- AWS deployments: ec2, Lightsail, S3, Amplify, EBS, ECS, Fargate, AppRunner, Lambda.
- CI/CD, CodeCatalyst
3 API management
- API Connect (IBM), Mulesoft (Salesforce), Apigee (GCP), Kong, ...
4 Front ends
- Vue, React, Svelte, ... (or just a browser, Postman, or Swagger UI)
5 Other (gdrive).
- Git
- AWS certification

NOTES

This part provides

A refresher on the latest API / API-doc tools (that I have not used before).
A big-picture hands-on presentation of API/API-doc topics (which I could not find anywhere).

Example demo

Demo #220 (WIP) is currently the most complete demo.

Deployment

Code (WIP)

Demo #220 code includes the following:

Git repo AWS-Deployment
Swagger (auto-generated, added manually to code, or created manually (editing a swagger file))
Python (WSGI/Django)
CI/CD setup (future)

Docs

2_#220_(OK)_django_deploy_to_ec2_ziptieai.net_ssl_LEGION_.docx (draft)

Left below is a diagram that shows the configuration (numbering matches the TOC above).

#120 is a combination of several docs (the original LEGION demo, ChatGPT directions, and SSL setup instructinos from #234).

24.1124 (Gdrive)

This is the latest part of this wiki (WIP started in Sept 2024):

The goal
Demo deployments
- Main focus is on basic AWS deployments with ziptieai.xxx subdomains + SSL.
- Future deployments will focus on "filling out" with more advanced (1) APIs and (2) swagger docs.
1 APIs / API docs
- Create the basic APIs/docs using tools like NodeJS, FastApi, etc on localhost.
- Deployments on non-AWS sites (PythonAnywhere, Railway, etc) without a custom subdomain.
2 AWS (AWS is the main public platform of interest)
3 Code (GIt/Swagger/Python/Javascript/CICD)

NOTES

Recent past activities

2023 4th quarter: AI, drone simulation.
2024 1st half: AI drones. I successfully built and flew an AI drone without assistance. Along the way I mastered quite a bit of AI/drone tech.

Recommended recent links of interest:

24.1013 Epic 6 "Get a job". My focus for the foreseeable future.
- AWS.
  - 62.1 Learning approach / DVA-C02
  - 62.2 Completed demos (videos) (demos I've done on my AWS account)
  - 62.4 CodeCatalyst OK (awesome AWS CI/CD tool.. 3/3 demos worked on my aws)
- Python / Javascript (TODO).
- APIs / API docs.

24.1014 62.4 AWS CodeCatalyst. With no prior experience, deployed 2 CI/CD pipelines in one day. Awesome tool.

CI/CD concepts (my focus)

Github-centric

The following is a very rough first draft diagram (my collage), showing CI/CD from my perspective (what my focus is). I will refine this diagram as I get more hands on experience.

AWS-centric

This is also a good one. I'm very interested in AWS pipelines as the center.
