Create Jobs in TaaS using user token instead of M2M

[imcaizheng]

Verification

Prepare

tc-project-service

1. I have to add the https://auth.topcoder-dev.com/ issuer url to the project service, otherwise requests to create new project would got 403 error with message "Invalid token issuer."

   I was using JWT tokens found on https://topcoder-dev.com.

2. Configure the taasJobApiUrl property at config/development.json with value http://localhost:3000/api/v5/jobs.

3. Enable debug messages and start the project service.

taas-apis

1. Clone taas-apis onto local machine.

2. Modify the helper.checkIsMemberOfProject function(https://github.com/topcoder-platform/taas-apis/blob/dev/src/common/helper.js#L960) so that it can make requests to the project service running locally.

   That is, replace this line:

       .get(`${config.TC_API}/projects/${projectId}`)

   with:

       .get(`http://localhost:8001/v5/projects/${projectId}`)

3. Start the taas service.

Check With Regular User

1. Go to https://connect.topcoder-dev.com/new-project/taas-jobs, fill the Form and find the request body on the browser console after the Form is sent.
   Here is an example:

   {
     "details": {
       "intakePurpose": "demo-test-other",
       "utm": {
         "code": ""
       },
       "taasDefinition": {
         "taasJobs": [
           {
             "title": "Software Engineer",
             "role": {
               "value": "software-developer",
               "title": "Software Developer"
             },
             "people": "1",
             "duration": "1",
             "skills": [
               {
                 "skillId": "1fd02aad-e08a-4669-9ffd-181468fea694",
                 "name": "AI"
               }
             ],
             "workLoad": {
               "value": "fulltime",
               "title": "Full-Time"
             },
             "description": "Come on!"
           },
           {
             "title": "Designer",
             "role": {
               "value": "designer",
               "title": "Designer"
             },
             "people": "2",
             "duration": "4",
             "skills": [
               {
                 "skillId": "4fce6ced-3610-443c-92eb-3f6d76b34f5c",
                 "name": "AI"
               }
             ],
             "workLoad": {
               "value": "fulltime",
               "title": "Full-Time"
             },
             "description": "Come out!"
           }
         ],
         "kickOffTime": "rangeOne",
         "oppurtunityDetails": {
           "customerName": "Aarron Yuan",
           "staffingModel": "global",
           "talentLocation": "No Requirement",
           "workingTimezone": "India",
           "requestedStartDate": "02/22/2021"
         },
         "otherRequirements": [
           "noAdditionalOnboarding"
         ],
         "otherRequirementBrief": "",
         "hiringManager": "[email protected]"
       },
       "hideDiscussions": true
     },
     "type": "talent-as-a-service",
     "templateId": 235,
     "name": "Taas Test",
     "version": "v3",
     "estimation": [],
     "attachments": []
   }

2. Go to https://topcoder-dev.com and log in as a regular user. Find the JWT token for the user on the browser console after the user is online.

3. Create a project via POST :8001/v5/projects with the JWT token and the request body.

4. Some log similar to as following could be found on the console:

   [2021-02-12T05:57:42.640Z] DEBUG: tc-projects-service-dev/897729 on caizheng-nuc10i7fnk: jobId: 2cc6b631-df57-46b8-a968-d9081925921a job created with title "Designer"
   [2021-02-12T05:57:42.640Z] DEBUG: tc-projects-service-dev/897729 on caizheng-nuc10i7fnk: jobId: ee952c1e-b187-43d0-83e7-90bba10f0dff job created with title "Software Engineer"

5. Fire a request to GET :3000/api/v5/jobs, two new records could be found:

   [
       {
           "id": "ee952c1e-b187-43d0-83e7-90bba10f0dff",
           "projectId": 31,
           "externalId": null,
           "description": "Come on!",
           "title": "Software Engineer",
           "startDate": null,
           "duration": 1,
           "numPositions": 1,
           "resourceType": "software-developer",
           "rateType": "weekly",
           "workload": "full-time",
           "skills": [
               "1fd02aad-e08a-4669-9ffd-181468fea694"
           ],
           "status": "sourcing",
           "createdBy": "fe38eed1-af73-41fd-85a2-ac4da1ff09a3",
           "updatedBy": null,
           "createdAt": "2021-02-12T05:57:42.590Z",
           "updatedAt": "2021-02-12T05:57:42.590Z",
           "candidates": []
       },
       {
           "id": "2cc6b631-df57-46b8-a968-d9081925921a",
           "projectId": 31,
           "externalId": null,
           "description": "Come out!",
           "title": "Designer",
           "startDate": null,
           "duration": 4,
           "numPositions": 2,
           "resourceType": "designer",
           "rateType": "weekly",
           "workload": "full-time",
           "skills": [
               "4fce6ced-3610-443c-92eb-3f6d76b34f5c"
           ],
           "status": "sourcing",
           "createdBy": "fe38eed1-af73-41fd-85a2-ac4da1ff09a3",
           "updatedBy": null,
           "createdAt": "2021-02-12T05:57:42.600Z",
           "updatedAt": "2021-02-12T05:57:42.600Z",
           "candidates": []
       }
   ]

Repeat step 3 to step 5 and try with other user roles could work as well.
