This is a convenient way to try out or develop heat alongside the current development state of all the other OpenStack projects. Heat on DevStack works on both Ubuntu and Fedora. These instructions assume you already have a working DevStack installation which can launch basic instances. Configure DevStack to enable Heat --------------------------------- Heat is configured by default on devstack for Icehouse or newer versions of OpenStack. It would also be useful to automatically download and register a VM image that Heat can launch. To do that add the following to your devstack `localrc`:: IMAGE_URLS+=",http://cloud.fedoraproject.org/fedora-20.x86_64.qcow2" URLs for any cloud image may be specified, but fedora images from F20 contain the heat-cfntools package which is required for some heat functionality. That is all the configuration that is required. When you run `./stack.sh` the Heat processes will be launched in `screen` with the labels prefixed with `h-`. Configure DevStack to enable Ceilometer (if using Alarms) --------------------------------------------------------- To use Ceilometer Alarms you need to enable Ceilometer in devstack. Adding the following lines to your `localrc` file will enable the ceilometer services:: CEILOMETER_BACKEND=mongo enable_service ceilometer-acompute ceilometer-acentral ceilometer-collector ceilometer-api enable_service ceilometer-alarm-notifier ceilometer-alarm-evaluator Confirming Heat is responding ----------------------------- Before any Heat commands can be run, the authentication environment needs to be loaded:: source openrc You can confirm that Heat is running and responding with this command:: heat stack-list This should return an empty line Preparing Nova for running stacks --------------------------------- Enabling Heat in devstack will replace the default Nova flavors with flavours that the Heat example templates expect. You can see what those flavors are by running:: nova flavor-list Heat needs to launch instances with a keypair, so we need to generate one:: nova keypair-add heat_key > heat_key.priv chmod 600 heat_key.priv Launching a stack ----------------- Now lets launch a stack, using an example template from the heat-templates repository:: heat stack-create teststack -u https://raw.github.com/openstack/heat-templates/master/cfn/F17/WordPress_Single_Instance.template -P "InstanceType=m1.large;DBUsername=wp;DBPassword=verybadpassword;KeyName=heat_key;LinuxDistribution=F17" Which will respond:: +--------------------------------------+-----------+--------------------+----------------------+ | ID | Name | Status | Created | +--------------------------------------+-----------+--------------------+----------------------+ | (uuid) | teststack | CREATE_IN_PROGRESS | (timestamp) | +--------------------------------------+-----------+--------------------+----------------------+ List stacks ~~~~~~~~~~~ List the stacks in your tenant:: heat stack-list List stack events ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List the events related to a particular stack:: heat event-list teststack Describe the wordpress stack ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Show detailed state of a stack:: heat stack-show teststack Note: After a few seconds, the stack_status should change from IN_PROGRESS to CREATE_COMPLETE.
