This project has been integrated into the Airship Treasuremap project. Please visit the Airskiff Documentation!

Airskiff

Skiff (n): a shallow, flat-bottomed open boat

Airskiff (n): A learning and dev environment for Airship

Warning: Work in progress!!

Purpose

Airskiff is an easy way to get started with the software delivery components of Airship:

  • Pegleg
  • Shipyard
  • Deckhand
  • Armada

The scripts in this project are modeled after the All-in-One KubeADM and gate scripts from the OpenStack-Helm project, so if you're familiar with those you're halfway there. The shell scripts can be used to:

  • Download, build, and containerize the Airship projects above from source
  • Stand up a Kubernetes cluster via KubeADM
  • Deploy Shipyard, Deckhand, and Armada via the Helm CLI
  • Deploy OpenStack using Airship, declarative YAMLs, and OpenStack-Helm charts

Common Configuration Requirements

Common configuration requirements covers deployment scenarios that may not be relevant for every user of Airskiff.

DNS Nameservers

During the OpenStack-Helm installation process, the contents of /etc/resolv.conf are overwritten with the entries in openstack-helm-infra/tools/images/kubeadm-aio/assets/opt/playbooks/vars.yaml under the external_dns_nameserver section. After the OpenStack-Helm and OpenStack-Helm-Infra repositories are cloned to your parent directory by the tools/deployment/developer/common/005-make-airship.sh script during the setup process, replace the default Google DNS nameservers if you require other nameservers to reach the internet.

Proxy Configuration

Additional configuration is necessary to deploy Airskiff behind corporate proxy servers. This section assumes you have properly defined the standard http_proxy, https_proxy, and no_proxy environment variables and have followed the Docker proxy guide to create a systemd drop-in unit.

Define the following environment variables to enable Airship components to build behind your proxy servers:

export USE_PROXY=true
export PROXY=${http_proxy}

Run the setup-proxy.sh script to add your proxy server to the Pegleg software versions document, enabling Armada to clone charts behind your proxy server.

./tools/deployment/common/setup-proxy.sh

After the OpenStack-Helm and OpenStack-Helm-Infra repositories are cloned to your parent directory by the tools/deployment/developer/common/005-make-airship.sh script during the setup process, follow the OpenStack-Helm proxy guide to enable deployment of OpenStack-Helm behind your proxy servers.

Setup

There is a set of scripts for ceph- and nfs-backed cluster storage. To deploy the ceph scripts for example, please run these commands in sequence:

cd airskiff
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/000-install-packages.sh
# You may need to log out and back in at this point to
# add your userid to the docker group
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/005-make-airship.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/010-deploy-k8s.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/020-setup-client.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/030-ingress.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/040-ceph.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/045-ceph-ns-activate.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/050-mariadb.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/060-rabbitmq.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/070-memcached.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/080-keystone.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/090-postgresql.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/100-barbican.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/110-deckhand.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/120-armada.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/130-shipyard.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/140-pegleg.sh
./tools/deployment/developer/ceph/150-deploy-software.sh

Don't forget to read the contents of these scripts as you run them -- learning what's going on is the point!

Once you have a running cluster on your laptop, if you're doing development on one of these projects (e.g. Shipyard), you can deploy your changes into a running cluster like so:

cd airship-shipyard
make
cd ../airskiff
./tools/deployment/developer/common/130-shipyard.sh

Next Steps

After familiarizing yourself with these Airship software delivery projects, you can move on to the infrastructure provisioning projects Promenade and Drydock. To demonstrate the full stack of Airship components, please try out the Airship-in-a-Bottle project.

Please bring any questions you have around Airship to the #airshipit IRC channel on Freenode. We would love to welcome new developers, testers, documenters, and operators!

Thanks

This project is based on work from the OpenStack-Helm and Airship-in-a-Bottle projects.
