How To Contribute
=================
Basics
======
#. Our source code is hosted on `OpenStack Kolla-Ansible Git
<https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/kolla-ansible/>`_. Bugs should be
filed on `launchpad <https://bugs.launchpad.net/kolla-ansible>`_.
#. Please follow OpenStack `Gerrit Workflow
<https://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/developers.html#development-workflow>`__
to contribute to Kolla-ansible.
#. Note the branch you're proposing changes to. ``master`` is the current focus
of development. Kolla project has a strict policy of only allowing backports
in ``stable/branch``, unless when not applicable. A bug in a
``stable/branch`` will first have to be fixed in ``master``.
#. Please file a `blueprint of kolla-ansible <https://blueprints.launchpad.net/kolla-ansible>`__
for any significant code change and a bug for any significant bug fix,
or add a ``TrivialFix`` tag to commit message for simple changes.
See how to reference a bug or a blueprint in the `commit message
<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/GitCommitMessages>`_.
#. TrivialFix tags or bugs are not required for documentation changes.
Development Environment
=======================
Please follow our :doc:`/user/quickstart` to deploy your environment and test
your changes.
Please use the existing sandbox repository, available at `sandbox
<https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack-dev/sandbox>`_, for learning, understanding
and testing the `Gerrit Workflow
<https://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/developers.html#development-workflow>`_.
Adding a new service
====================
Kolla aims to both containerise and deploy all services within the OpenStack
"big tent". This is a constantly moving target as the ecosystem grows, so these
guidelines aim to help make adding a new service to Kolla a smooth experience.
When adding a role for a new service in Ansible, there are couple of patterns
that Kolla uses throughout that should be followed.
* The sample inventories
Entries should be added for the service in each of
``ansible/inventory/multinode`` and ``ansible/inventory/all-in-one``.
* The playbook
The main playbook that ties all roles together is in ``ansible/site.yml``,
this should be updated with appropriate roles, tags, and conditions. Ensure
also that supporting hosts such as haproxy are updated when necessary.
* The common role
A ``common`` role exists which sets up logging, ``kolla-toolbox`` and other
supporting components. This should be included in all services within
``meta/main.yml`` of your role.
* Common tasks
All services should include the following tasks:
- ``reconfigure.yml`` : Used to push new configuration files to the host
and restart the service.
- ``pull.yml`` : Used to pre fetch the image into the Docker image cache
on hosts, to speed up initial deploys.
- ``upgrade.yml`` : Used for upgrading the service in a rolling fashion. May
include service specific setup and steps as not all services can be
upgraded in the same way.
* Logrotation
- For OpenStack services there should be a ``cron-logrotate-PROJECT.conf.j2``
template file in ``ansible/roles/common/templates`` with the following
content:
.. path ansible/roles/common/templates/cron-logrotate-PROJECT.conf.j2
.. code-block:: console
"/var/log/kolla/PROJECT/*.log"
{
}
.. end
- For OpenStack services there should be an entry in the ``services`` list
in the ``cron.json.j2`` template file in ``ansible/roles/common/templates``.
* Log delivery
- For OpenStack services the service should add a new ``rewriterule`` in the
``match`` element in the ``01-rewrite.conf.j2`` template file in
``ansible/roles/common/templates/conf/filter`` to deliver log messages to
Elasticsearch.
* Documentation
- For OpenStack services there should be an entry in the list
``OpenStack services`` in the ``README.rst`` file.
- For infrastructure services there should be an entry in the list
``Infrastructure components`` in the ``README.rst`` file.
* Syntax
- All YAML data files should start with three dashes (``---``).
Other than the above, most service roles abide by the following pattern:
- ``Register``: Involves registering the service with Keystone, creating
endpoints, roles, users, etc.
- ``Config``: Distributes the config files to the nodes to be pulled into
the container on startup.
- ``Bootstrap``: Creating the database (but not tables), database user for
the service, permissions, etc.
- ``Bootstrap Service``: Starts a one shot container on the host to create
the database tables, and other initial run time config.
- ``Start``: Start the service(s).
