Dockit is an application to make your life better wrt managing docker actions (ex: run , pull, build, create, start ...etc) and to also help massive deployment of containers.
This is also glued with gluster (-g option of this binary) wrt huge gluster deployment. When in gluster action mode, it can be used to start any number of containers using the bricks exported ( configuration read from the config file) from host system. The gluster volume is created automatically ( volume name can be given as user input) from the exported bricks .
All you need to do is, mount gluster volume in your client!!
You can use this (dockit)executable for:
- Installing required docker packages in fedora/centos/rhel for docker.
- This binary is capable of starting docker deamon if its not running in your system.
- This binary can be used to pull docker images.
- This binary can build containers based on dockerfile.
- This binary can start containers based on provided image.
- This binary can be used to install any number of containers running with specified version of glusterfs binary and also to deploy gluster trusted pool on containers.
Demo Video:
-
Install python-setuptools package or make sure you have 'setuptools' module available in your python path.
-
If you are running in RHEL6 systems , please subscribe to EPEL channels as mentioned here (https://docs.docker.com/installation/rhel/)to make docker packages available.
-
Base/official image 'pulling' (ex: ubuntu official image) is disabled for this version. How-ever if you have specified base image in docker file, it should work..
-
The image which you use for gluster deployment should have "ssh" deamon running in it. The password will be prompted from the user if invoked in gluster mode. An example image can be found @https://index.docker.io/u/humble/fed20-gluster/
-
If you are trying to install GlusterFs binary for a particular version (--gi) its better to use an image which has glusterfs build prerequisites installed ( http://gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Building_GlusterFS )& ssh deamon running( the password will be prompted when gluster mode is enabled), such an image can be found here:https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/humble/f20-glusterfs-source/, otherwise it can take long time.
-
Finally read the "help" output to use this in its full strength.
-
When running this binary it may require 'image tag' at times, you can use default tag called 'latest' if you dont have any other choice.
-
If you come across any issues when running the dockit binary with options, please refer "Troubleshooting_guide.md". You may have solution there itself.
For ease-of-use, this repository includes a Vagrantfile so you can use Vagrant and VirtualBox to get Dockit up and running very quickly on a CentOS 7 VM. This is great for development work on Dockit.
On your workstation, simply:
$ git clone https://github.com/humblec/dockit.git
$ cd dockit
$ vagrant up
$ vagrant sshThen you'll have a shell on a CentOS 7 machine with Dockit built from your local code. You can use Dockit immediately, like:
$ sudo dockit -i humble/fed20-gluster -t latest -s -n 4 -g -c /home/vagrant/dockit/configfile --gvStep 1: Clone the repo
https://github.com/humblec/dockit.git
Step 2: Install 'dockit'
#cd dockit
#python setup.py install
Step 3: Verify there exist a binary called 'dockit`
Step 4: Read dockit's help
#dockit --help
Step 5: If you are planning to use it for gluster deployment ( -g option flag ) and for automatic volume creation (--gv), there are 2 ways to give input:
- Give the configuration manually.
- Let dockit read the configuration from a configuration file (-c option)
Either of above, you need a configuration file in your filesystem. The configuration file should have atleast below entry.
[root@ dockit]# cat /configfile
BRICKS="/brick6,/brick7,/brick8,/brick9"
[root@dockit]#
If you opt for option 1 :
Gluster Volume Type (ex: 2x2x1 where (distribute,replica, stripe count in order) :2x2x1
Gluster Volume Name (ex: glustervol) :myvol
Gluster Export Dir Name (ex: /rhs_bricks) :/humble
Gluster brick file (ex: /home/configfile) :/configfile
Where 'Volume Type' is the configuration of gluster configurtion wrt distribut-replica-stripe.. Volume name is self explanatory and 'Export Dir Name' will be the mount point inside the containers where brick is configured. The brick file is mentioned above. For ex: If you give options like '2x2x1' which means it create 4 containers and brick names will be fetched in order from above config file. Make sure you have equal number of entries in your config file against the number of gluster containers you wish to spawn..
If you opt for option 2, you may define these variables in config file,otherwise it will take default values for Volume name, Export Dir, Volume type..etc
[root@ dockit]# cat /configfile
BRICKS="/brick6,/brick7,/brick8,/brick9"
VOLNAME="testvol"
VOL_TYPE="2x2x1"
SERVER_EXPORT_DIR="/rhs_bricks"
[root@dockit]#
Step 7: Use it and Report bugs/comment/suggestions/RFEs @humble.devassy@gmail.com , if you come across any.
-
Currently dockit is supporting fedora, centos, rhel as base system or host OS, expand dockit to support ubuntu and other OSs. -- UPDATE: Support for ubuntu added from version 2.0
-
If we want to install gluster on spawned containers, ssh deamon should be running in those images with password "redhat" , The password dependency has to be nullified and it has to be fetched from a config file. - UPDATE : The password dependency is removed from Version 2.0 : Its now prompted from user when operating on gluster mode.
-
Make dockit accept "containers" ( ID/HOSTNAME/IP) (I prefer containers IDs as an input to binary) and start working on gluster mode.
-
Also try to accept multi nodes as command input and configure a cluster/trusted pool based on multi nodes. - UPDATE kubernates and other solutions are getting evaluated to achieve this functionality.
