John Griffith db82e4450a Add blockbox to Cinder project
This change creates a contrib directory in the Cinder tree and adds
a project called block-box.

This addition provides a method to easily create Docker images for
a standalone Cinder deployment and employs a docker-compose file to
enable rapid build and deployment of Cinder as a standlone service.

You'll need to modify how you're doing things to get to the iscsi Target. Specifically, using a Docker network hoses everything because the IP of the target is the internal containers IP NOT the IP of the host.

Setting network_mode: host solves this.. but that creates a new problem. Can't use link when using network_mode: host.

Sigh... so; docker run has "add-host=host:IP" that we should be able to find equivalent in compose. We just need to define a network and assign IP's to the other containers, then this should work.

Compose looks like this: extra_hosts: - "hostname:1.1.1.1" - "anotherhost:2.2.2.2"

This just adds entries to /etc/hosts for you. Kinda handy

So, if we create a network and assign IP's to the supporting cast (rabbit, mariadb api etc etc) we can then just use this to make them accessible instead of using link

OHHHH! Add ipc_mode: host, shared memory; may speed things up a bit?

Finally... for reference; The docker run command for this looks something like: docker run -it \ -v /dev/:/dev/ \ -v /run/:/run/:shared -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \ --net host \ --privileged cinder_debian \ bash
