Basics
~~~~~~
* Our source code is hosted on `OpenStack GitHub`_, but please do not send pull
requests there.
* Please follow usual OpenStack `Gerrit Workflow`_ to submit a patch.
* Update change log in README.rst on any significant change.
* It goes without saying that any code change should by accompanied by unit
tests.
* Note the branch you're proposing changes to. ``master`` is the current focus
of development, use ``stable/VERSION`` for proposing an urgent fix, where
``VERSION`` is the current stable series. E.g. at the moment of writing the
stable branch is ``stable/1.0``.
* Please file a launchpad_ blueprint for any significant code change and a bug
for any significant bug fix.

Development Environment
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First of all, install *tox* utility. It's likely to be in your distribution
repositories under name of ``python-tox``. Alternatively, you can install it
from PyPI.
Next checkout and create environments::
git clone https://github.com/openstack/ironic-inspector.git
cd ironic-inspector
tox
Repeat *tox* command each time you need to run tests. If you don't have Python
interpreter of one of supported versions (currently 2.7 and 3.4), use
``-e`` flag to select only some environments, e.g.
::
tox -e py27
.. note::
Support for Python 3 is highly experimental, stay with Python 2 for the
production environment for now.
To run the functional tests, use::
tox -e func
Run the service with::
.tox/py27/bin/ironic-inspector --config-file example.conf
Of course you may have to modify ``example.conf`` to match your OpenStack
environment.
You can develop and test **ironic-inspector** using DevStack - see
`DevStack Support`_ for the current status.
DevStack Support
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
`DevStack <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/devstack/>`_ provides a way to
quickly build full OpenStack development environment with requested
components. There is a plugin for installing **ironic-inspector** on DevStack.

Notes
-----
* Set IRONIC_INSPECTOR_BUILD_RAMDISK to True if you want to build ramdisk.
Default value is False and ramdisk will be downloaded instead of building.
* 1024 MiB of RAM is a minimum required for the default build of IPA based on
CoreOS. If you plan to use another operating system and build IPA with
diskimage-builder 2048 MiB is recommended.
* Network configuration is pretty sensitive, better not to touch it
without deep understanding.
* This configuration disables Heat and Cinder, adjust it if you need these
services.
Using simple ramdisk
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. note::
This ramdisk is deprecated and should not be used.

Notes
-----
* Replace "fedora" with whatever you have
* You need at least 1G of RAM for VMs, default value of 512 MB won't work
* Before restarting stack.sh::
rm -rf /opt/stack/ironic-inspector
Test
----
There is a test script included::
source devstack/openrc admin admin
/opt/stack/ironic-inspector/devstack/exercise.sh
Usage
-----
Start introspection for a node manually::
source devstack/openrc admin admin
openstack baremetal introspection start <UUID>
Then check status via API::
openstack baremetal introspection status <UUID>
Writing a Plugin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* **ironic-inspector** allows you to hook code into the data processing chain
after introspection. Inherit ``ProcessingHook`` class defined in
ironic_inspector.plugins.base_ module and overwrite any or both of
the following methods:
``before_processing(introspection_data,**)``
called before any data processing, providing the raw data. Each plugin in
the chain can modify the data, so order in which plugins are loaded
matters here. Returns nothing.
``before_update(introspection_data,node_info,**)``
called after node is found and ports are created, but before data is
updated on a node. Please refer to the docstring for details
and examples.
Make your plugin a setuptools entry point under
``ironic_inspector.hooks.processing`` namespace and enable it in the
configuration file (``processing.processing_hooks`` option).
* **ironic-inspector** allows plugins to override the action when node is not
found in node cache. Write a callable with the following signature:
``(introspection_data,**)``
called when node is not found in cache, providing the processed data.
Should return a ``NodeInfo`` class instance.
Make your plugin a setuptools entry point under
``ironic_inspector.hooks.node_not_found`` namespace and enable it in the
configuration file (``processing.node_not_found_hook`` option).
* **ironic-inspector** allows more condition types to be added for
`Introspection Rules`_. Inherit ``RuleConditionPlugin`` class defined in
ironic_inspector.plugins.base_ module and overwrite at least the following
method:
``check(node_info,field,params,**)``
called to check that condition holds for a given field. Field value is
provided as ``field`` argument, ``params`` is a dictionary defined
at the time of condition creation. Returns boolean value.
The following methods and attributes may also be overridden:
``validate(params,**)``
called to validate parameters provided during condition creating.
Default implementation requires keys listed in ``REQUIRED_PARAMS`` (and
only them).
``REQUIRED_PARAMS``
contains set of required parameters used in the default implementation
of ``validate`` method, defaults to ``value`` parameter.
``ALLOW_NONE``
if it's set to ``True``, missing fields will be passed as ``None``
values instead of failing the condition. Defaults to ``False``.
Make your plugin a setuptools entry point under
``ironic_inspector.rules.conditions`` namespace.
* **ironic-inspector** allows more action types to be added for `Introspection
Rules`_. Inherit ``RuleActionPlugin`` class defined in
ironic_inspector.plugins.base_ module and overwrite at least the following
method:
``apply(node_info,params,**)``
called to apply the action.
The following methods and attributes may also be overridden:
``rollback(node_info,params,**)``
called to clean up when conditions were not met.
Default implementation does nothing.
``validate(params,**)``
called to validate parameters provided during actions creating.
Default implementation requires keys listed in ``REQUIRED_PARAMS`` (and
only them).
``REQUIRED_PARAMS``
contains set of required parameters used in the default implementation
of ``validate`` method, defaults to no parameters.
Make your plugin a setuptools entry point under
``ironic_inspector.rules.conditions`` namespace.
.. note::
``**`` argument is needed so that we can add optional arguments without
breaking out-of-tree plugins. Please make sure to include and ignore it.

Making changes to the database
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In order to make a change to the ironic-inspector database you must update the
database models found in ironic_inspector.db_ and then create a migration to
reflect that change.
There are two ways to create a migration which are described below, both of
these generate a new migration file. In this file there are two functions:
* upgrade - The upgrade function is run when
``ironic-inspector-dbsync upgrade`` is run, and should be populated with
code to bring the database up to its new state from the state it was in
after the last migration.
* downgrade - The downgrade function should have code to undo the actions which
upgrade performs, returning the database to the state it would have been in
before the migration ran.
For further information on creating a migration, refer to
`Create a Migration Script`_ from the alembic documentation.
Autogenerate
------------
This is the simplest way to create a migration. Alembic will compare the models
to an up to date database, and then attempt to write a migration based on the
differences. This should generate correct migrations in most cases however
there are some cases when it can not detect some changes and may require
manual modification, see `What does Autogenerate Detect (and what does it not
detect?)`_ from the alembic documentation.
::
ironic-inspector-dbsync upgrade
ironic-inspector-dbsync revision -m "A short description" --autogenerate
Manual
------
This will generate an empty migration file, with the correct revision
information already included. However upgrade and downgrade are left empty and
must be manually populated in order to perform the correct actions on the
database::
ironic-inspector-dbsync revision -m "A short description"
