About

This repository contains the source code of the EU Digital COVID Certificate Issuance Service.

The issuer backend is accessed by the issuer web frontend and the respective wallet apps ( Android, iOS ) of the same member state. The backend itself publishes its public keys to the DGCG where they can be distributed to other member states. Each member state hosts its own issuer backend. The main function of the backend is to provide services for creating and signing new green certificates.

Prerequisites

• Open JDK 11
• Maven
• Docker
• Authenticate to Github Packages

• Create PAT with scopes:
  • read:packages for downloading packages

GitHub Maven

Build

Whether you cloned or downloaded the 'zipped' sources you will either find the sources in the chosen checkout-directory or get a zip file with the source code, which you can expand to a folder of your choice.

In either case open a terminal pointing to the directory you put the sources in. The local build process is described afterwards depending on the way you choose.

Build with maven

• Check settings.xml in root folder and copy the servers to your own ~/.m2/settings.xml to connect the GitHub repositories we use in our code. Provide your GitHub username and access token (see GitHub Help) under the variables suggested.
• Run mvn clean package from the project root folder

Run with docker

• Perform maven build as described above
• Run docker-compose up from the project root folder
