Ghanshyam Mann c8370c2ab2 [goal] Deprecate the JSON formatted policy file
As per the community goal of migrating the policy file
the format from JSON to YAML[1], we need to do two things:

1. Change the default value of '[oslo_policy] policy_file''
config option from 'policy.json' to 'policy.yaml' with
upgrade checks.

2. Deprecate the JSON formatted policy file on the project side
via warning in doc and releasenotes.

Also replace policy.json to policy.yaml ref from doc.

Install from source

Install the services

Retrieve and install cloudkitty:

git clone https://opendev.org/openstack/cloudkitty.git
cd cloudkitty
python setup.py install

This procedure installs the cloudkitty python library and the following executables:

  • cloudkitty-api: API service
  • cloudkitty-processor: Processing service (collecting and rating)
  • cloudkitty-dbsync: Tool to create and upgrade the database schema
  • cloudkitty-storage-init: Tool to initiate the storage backend
  • cloudkitty-writer: Reporting tool

Install sample configuration files:

mkdir /etc/cloudkitty
tox -e genconfig
cp etc/cloudkitty/cloudkitty.conf.sample /etc/cloudkitty/cloudkitty.conf
cp etc/cloudkitty/policy.yaml /etc/cloudkitty
cp etc/cloudkitty/api_paste.ini /etc/cloudkitty

Create the log directory:

mkdir /var/log/cloudkitty/

Install the client

Retrieve and install cloudkitty client:

git clone https://opendev.org/openstack/python-cloudkittyclient.git
cd python-cloudkittyclient
python setup.py install

Install the dashboard module

  1. Retrieve and install cloudkitty's dashboard:

    git clone https://opendev.org/openstack/cloudkitty-dashboard.git
    cd cloudkitty-dashboard
    python setup.py install
  2. Find where the python packages are installed:

    PY_PACKAGES_PATH=`pip --version | cut -d' ' -f4`
  3. Add the enabled file to the horizon settings or installation. Depending on your setup, you might need to add it to /usr/share or directly in the horizon python package:

    # If horizon is installed by packages:
    ln -sf $PY_PACKAGES_PATH/cloudkittydashboard/enabled/_[0-9]*.py \
    /usr/share/openstack-dashboard/openstack_dashboard/enabled/
    
    # Directly from sources:
    ln -sf $PY_PACKAGES_PATH/cloudkittydashboard/enabled/_[0-9]*.py \
    $PY_PACKAGES_PATH/openstack_dashboard/enabled/
  4. Restart the web server hosting Horizon.
