Alex Schultz 012209ae34 Convert readme to rst
In order to release we need to fix some linting issues in the readme for
pypi. Let's switch it to rst to be consistent with the new standard.

TripleO Modify Image
====================
A role to allow modification to container images built for the TripleO project.
Role Variables
--------------
.. list-table:: Variables used for modify image
:widths: auto
:header-rows: 1
* - Name
- Default Value
- Description
* - `source_image`
- `[undefined]`
- Mandatory fully qualified reference to the source image to be modified. The supplied Dockerfile will be copied and modified to make the FROM directive match this variable.
* - `modify_dir_path`
- `[undefined]`
- Mandatory path to the directory containing the Dockerfile to modify the image
* - `modified_append_tag`
- `date +-modified-%Y%m%d%H%M%S`
- String to be appended after the tag to indicate this is a modified version of the source image.
* - `target_image`
- `[undefined]`
- If set, the modified image will be tagged with `target_image + modified_append_tag`. If `target_image` is not set, the modified image will be tagged with `source_image + modified_append_tag`. If the purpose of the image is not changing, it may be enough to rely on the `source_image + modified_append_tag` tag to identify that this is a modified version of the source image.
* - `container_build_tool`
- `docker`
- Tool used to build containers, can be 'docker' or 'buildah'
.. list-table:: Variables used for yum update
:widths: auto
:header-rows: 1
* - Name
- Default Value
- Description
* - `source_image`
- `[undefined]`
- See modify image variables
* - `modified_append_tag`
- `date +-modified-%Y%m%d%H%M%S`
- See modify image variables
* - `target_image`
- `''`
- See modify image variables
* - `update_repo`
- `''`
- If set, packages from this repo will be updated. Other repos will only be used for dependencies of these updates.
* - `yum_repos_dir_path`
- `None`
- Optional path of directory to be used as `/etc/yum.repos.d` during the update
* - `container_build_tool`
- `docker`
- See modify image variables
.. list-table:: Variables used for def install
:widths: auto

* - Name
- Default Value
- Description
* - `source_image`
- `[undefined]`

* - `target_image`
- `''`
- See modify image variables
* - `container_build_tool`
- `docker`
- See modify image variables
* - `refspecs`
- `[]`
- An array of project/refspec pairs that will be installed into the generated container. Currently only supports python source projects.

Example Playbooks
-----------------
Modify Image
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The following playbook will produce a modified image with the tag
`:latest-modified-<timestamp>` based on the Dockerfile in the custom directory
`/path/to/example_modify_dir`.
.. code-block::
- hosts: localhost
tasks:
- name: include tripleo-modify-image
import_role:
name: tripleo-modify-image
tasks_from: modify_image.yml
vars:
source_image: docker.io/tripleomaster/centos-binary-nova-api:latest
modify_dir_path: /path/to/example_modify_dir
container_build_tool: docker # or buildah
The directory `example_modify_dir` contains the `Dockerfile` which will perform
the modification, for example:
.. code-block::
# This will be replaced in the file Dockerfile.modified
FROM centos-binary-nova-api
# switch to root to install packages
USER root
# install packages
RUN curl "https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py" -o "/tmp/get-pip.py"
RUN python /tmp/get-pip.py
# switch the container back to the default user
USER nova
Yum update
~~~~~~~~~~
The following playbook will produce a modified image with the tag
`:latest-updated` which will do a yum update using the host's /etc/yum.repos.d.
The yum update will only occur if there are differences between host and image
package versions. In this playbook the tasks\_from is set as a variable instead
of an `import_role` parameter.
.. code-block::
- hosts: localhost
tasks:
- name: include tripleo-modify-image
import_role:
name: tripleo-modify-image
vars:
tasks_from: yum_update.yml
source_image: docker.io/tripleomaster/centos-binary-nova-api:latest
compare_host_packages: true
yum_repos_dir_path: /etc/yum.repos.d
modified_append_tag: updated
container_build_tool: docker # or buildah
RPM install
~~~~~~~~~~~
The following playbook will produce a modified image with RPMs from the
specified rpms\_path on the local filesystem installed as a new layer
for the container. The new container tag is appened with the '-hotfix'
suffix. Useful for creating adhoc hotfix containers with local RPMs with no
network connectivity.
.. code-block::
- hosts: localhost
tasks:
- name: include tripleo-modify-image
import_role:
name: tripleo-modify-image
vars:
tasks_from: rpm_install.yml
source_image: docker.io/tripleomaster/centos-binary-nova-api:latest
rpms_path: /foo/bar
modified_append_tag: -hotfix
Dev install
~~~~~~~~~~~
The following playbook will produce a modified image with Python source
code installed via pip. To minimize dependencies within the container
we generate the sdist locally and then copy it into the resulting
container image as an sdist tarball to run pip install locally.
.. code-block::
- hosts: localhost
connection: local
tasks:
- name: dev install heat-api
import_role:
name: tripleo-modify-image
vars:
tasks_from: dev_install.yml
source_image: docker.io/tripleomaster/centos-binary-heat-api:current-tripleo
refspecs:
-
project: heat
refspec: refs/changes/12/1234/3
modified_append_tag: -devel
