This change allows additional archives to be fetched as part of the build and added to images. An example use case is the installation of plugins for neutron. For example, to add the networking-arista plugin to neutron-server, one would do the following in kolla-build.conf: [neutron-server-plugin-networking-arista] type = url location = http://tarballs.openstack.org/networking-arista/networking-arista-master.tar.gz The format for plugin sections is <image-name>-plugin-<plugin-name> The required Dockerfile additions will be added in the next patchset.

Kolla Overview
The Kolla project is a member of the OpenStack Big Tent Governance. Kolla's mission statement is:
Kolla provides production-ready containers and deployment tools for
operating OpenStack clouds.Kolla provides Docker containers and Ansible playbooks to meet Kolla's mission. Kolla is highly opinionated out of the box, but allows for complete customization. This permits operators with little experience to deploy OpenStack quickly and as experience grows modify the OpenStack configuration to suit the operator's exact requirements.
Getting Started
The learn about Kolla, you can find the documentation online on docs.openstack.org.
You can get started by reading the Developer Quickstart.
Kolla provides images to deploy the following OpenStack projects:
- Ceilometer
- Cinder
- Designate
- Glance
- Gnocchi
- Heat
- Horizon
- Ironic
- Keystone
- Magnum
- Murano
- Nova
- Neutron
- Swift
- Zaqar
As well as these infrastructure components:
- Ceph implementation for Cinder, Glance and Nova
- Openvswitch and Linuxbridge backends for Neutron
- MongoDB as a database backend for Ceilometer and Gnocchi
- RabbitMQ as a messaging backend for communication between services.
- HAProxy and Keepalived for high availability of services and their endpoints.
- MariaDB and Galera for highly available MySQL databases
Docker Images
The Docker images are built by the Kolla project maintainers. A detailed process for contributing to the images can be found in the image building guide.
The Kolla developers build images in the kollaglue namespace for every tagged release and implement Ansible deployment for them.
You can view the available images on Docker Hub or with the Docker CLI:
$ sudo docker search kollaglueDirectories
- ansible - Contains Ansible playbooks to deploy Kolla in Docker containers.
- demos - Contains a few demos to use with Kolla.
- dev/heat - Contains an OpenStack-Heat based development environment.
- dev/vagrant - Contains a vagrant VirtualBox/Libvirt based development environment.
- doc - Contains documentation.
- etc - Contains a reference etc directory structure which requires configuration of a small number of configuration variables to achieve a working All-in-One (AIO) deployment.
- docker - Contains jinja2 templates for the docker build system.
- tools - Contains tools for interacting with Kolla.
- specs - Contains the Kolla communities key arguments about architectural shifts in the code base.
- tests - Contains functional testing tools.
