This charm provides salt-master. This is server portion of saltstack and is intended to be related to the salt-minion charm to operate in the Salt Agent configuration.
To deploy:
juju deploy cs:~chris.sanders/salt-master
You can then juju ssh to the unit and configure your pillar and salt formulas in /srv
juju ssh salt-master/0
cd /srv
Note the standard ubuntu user will be configured with RSA keys for pushing and pulling your repository. Salt requires you run commands as root, when executing be sure to use sudo. Ex:
sudo salt '*' state.apply
This charm has not been written to setup multiple masters at this time.
- Adding / configuring salt-formulas after install
- Apply salt states on demand not just on minion join
- Support multiple master
- Agentless configuration
Note you should set the option 'use-dns' to True unless you use the interface and address options to provide a static DHCP address. The address or fqdn will be provided to salt-minions based on this option and does not currently update if changed.
During install this charm expects to have access to pull your salt repository. If you are not providing RSA keys (see below) a pair will be generated. You can add the public key to your repository by checking 'juju debug-log' for the public key or using 'juju ssh' to find the key in the ubuntu user's .ssh folder.
By default this charm will setup an empty git repository and generate RSA keys for you to push to a private repository. If you want to use an existing repository or keys you can provide resources which this charm will use.
Two resources are available "public-key" and "private-key". Note the charm store ships with blank dummy keys as it does not allow optional resources. If not present during install you will need to add them and resolve the install error to access your private repository. If you do not provide keys a public and private key will be generated for you. An example of adding keys and resolving install errors is below.
juju attach salt-master private-key=./rsa/id_rsa
juju attach salt-master public-key=./rsa/id_rsa.pub
juju resolved salt-master/0
Starting in juju 2.2.3 resources can be attached in a bundle. salt-master: resources: private-key: "./my-private-key" public-key: "./my-public-key"
