cloud_controller_ng

This repository contains the code for the Cloud Controller. The NG signifies that this is a "next generation" component and this is not backward-compatible with the original cloud_controller. This version adds significant new functionality including the additional mandatory "organization" and "space" hierarchy that all users, applications and services must use.

Components

Cloud Controller

The Cloud Controller itself is written in Ruby and provides REST API endpoints for clients to access the system. The Cloud Controller maintains a database with tables for orgs, spaces, apps, services, service instances, user roles, and more.

Database (CC_DB)

The Cloud Controller database has been tested with Postgres and Mysql.

Blob Store

The Cloud Controller manages a blob store for:

  • resources - files that are uploaded to the Cloud Controller with a unique SHA such that they can be reused without re-uploading the file

  • app packages - unstaged files that represent an application

  • droplets - the result of taking an app package and staging it (processesing a buildpack) and getting it ready to run

The blob store uses FOG such that it can use abstractions like Amazon S3 or an NFS-mounted file system for storage.

NATS Messaging

The Cloud Controller interacts with other core components of the Cloud Foundry platform using the NATS message bus. For example, it performs the following using NATS:

  • Instructs a DEA to stage an application (processes a buildpack for the app) to prepare it to run
  • Instructs a DEA to start or stop an application
  • Receives information from the Health Manager about applications

Testing

TLDR: Always run bundle exec rake before committing

To maintain a consistent and effective approach to testing, please refer to spec/README.md and keep it up to date, documenting the purpose of the various types of tests.

By default rspec will randomly pick between postgres and mysql.

It will try to connect to those databases with the following connection string: postgres: postgres://postgres@localhost:5432/cc_test mysql: mysql2://root:password@localhost:3306/cc_test

rake db:create will create the above database when the DB environment variable is set to postgres or mysql. You should run this before running rake in order to ensure that the cc_test database exists.

You can specify a connection string via DB_CONNECTION environment variable to test against postgres or mysql. You will need to have a database with cc_test as the name. Examples:

DB_CONNECTION="postgres://postgres@localhost:5432" rake
DB_CONNECTION="mysql2://root:password@localhost:3306" rake

You can also specify the full connection string via the DB_CONNECTION_STRING environment variable. Examples:

DB_CONNECTION_STRING="postgres://postgres@localhost:5432/cc_test" rake
DB_CONNECTION_STRING="mysql2://root:password@localhost:3306/cc_test" rake

If you are running the integration specs (which are included in the full rake), and you are specifying DB_CONNECTION or DB_CONNECTION_STRING, you will also need to have a second test database with _integration_cc as the name suffix.

For example, if you are using:

DB_CONNECTION_STRING="postgres://postgres@localhost:5432/cc_test"

You will also need a database called:

`cc_test_integration_cc`

Running tests on a single file

The development team typically will run the specs to a single file as (e.g.)

bundle exec rspec spec/controllers/runtime/users_controller_spec.rb

Running all the tests

bundle exec rake spec

Static Analysis

To help maintain code consistency, rubocop is used to enforce code conventions and best practices.

Running static analysis

bundle exec rubocop

API documentation

Logs

Cloud Controller uses Steno to manage its logs. Each log entry includes a "source" field to designate which module in the code the entry originates from. Some of the possible sources are 'cc.app', 'cc.app_stager', 'cc.dea.client' and 'cc.healthmanager.client'.

Here are some use cases for the different log levels:

  • error - the CC received a malformed HTTP request, or a request for a non-existent droplet
  • warn - the CC failed to delete a droplet, CC received a request with an invalid auth token
  • info - CC received a token from UAA, CC received a NATS request
  • debug2 - CC created a service, updated a service
  • debug - CC syncs resource pool, CC uploaded a file

Database migration logs

The logs for database migrations are written to standard out.

Configuration

The Cloud Controller uses a YAML configuration file. For an example, see config/cloud_controller.yml. Some of the keys that are read from this configuration file are:

  • logging - a steno configuration hash
  • bulk_api - basic auth credentials for the application state bulk API. In Cloud Foundry, this endpoint is used by the health manager to retrieve the expected state of every user application.
  • uaa - URL and credentials for connecting to the UAA, Cloud Foundry's OAuth 2.0 server.
