# Development of Openstack-Helm
Community Development is extremely important to us. As developers, we want development of Openstack-Helm to be an easy, painless experience. Please evaluate, make recommendations, and feel welcome to contribute to this project! Below, are some instrcutions and suggestions to help you get started.
# Requirements
There's really only a few prerequisites in order to get started. The first is getting a recent version of Helm.
Ensure you have [Minikube Installed](http://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/minikube/).
Installing a recent version of [Helm](https://github.com/kubernetes/helm):
```
$ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/helm/master/scripts/get > get_helm.sh
$ chmod 700 get_helm.sh
$ ./get_helm.sh
```
# Getting Started
After installing Minikube, start it with the flags listed below. Ensure that you have supplied enough disk, memory, and the current version of Kubernetes during `minikube start`. More information can be found [HERE](https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/blob/master/docs/minikube_start.md).
```
$ minikube start \
--network-plugin=cni \
--kubernetes-version v1.5.1 \
--disk-size 40g
```
Next deploy the [Calico](http://docs.projectcalico.org/master/getting-started/kubernetes/installation/hosted/hosted) manifest. This is not a requirement in cases where you want to use your own SDN, however you are doing so at your own experience. Note, which versions of Calico are recommended in our [Installation Guide](https://github.com/att-comdev/openstack-helm/blob/master/docs/installation/getting-started.md#overview).
```
$ kubectl create -f http://docs.projectcalico.org/v2.0/getting-started/kubernetes/installation/hosted/calico.yaml
```
Wait for the environment to come up without error (like shown below).
```
$ kubectl get pods -o wide --all-namespaces -w
NAMESPACE NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE IP NODE
kube-system calico-node-r9b9s 2/2 Running 0 3m 192.168.99.100 minikube
kube-system calico-policy-controller-2974666449-hm0zr 1/1 Running 0 3m 192.168.99.100 minikube
kube-system configure-calico-r6lnw 0/1 Completed 0 3m 192.168.99.100 minikube
kube-system kube-addon-manager-minikube 1/1 Running 0 7m 192.168.99.100 minikube
kube-system kube-dns-v20-sh5gp 3/3 Running 0 7m 192.168.120.64 minikube
kube-system kubernetes-dashboard-m24s8 1/1 Running 0 7m 192.168.120.65 minikube
```
Next, initialize [Helm](https://github.com/kubernetes/helm/blob/master/docs/install.md#easy-in-cluster-installation) (which includes deploying tiller).
```
$ helm init
Creating /Users/bj916b/.helm
Creating /Users/bj916b/.helm/repository
Creating /Users/bj916b/.helm/repository/cache
Creating /Users/bj916b/.helm/repository/local
Creating /Users/bj916b/.helm/plugins
Creating /Users/bj916b/.helm/starters
Creating /Users/bj916b/.helm/repository/repositories.yaml
Creating /Users/bj916b/.helm/repository/local/index.yaml
$HELM_HOME has been configured at $HOME/.helm.
Tiller (the helm server side component) has been installed into your Kubernetes Cluster.
Happy Helming!
$ kubectl get pods -o wide --all-namespaces | grep tiller
kube-system tiller-deploy-3299276078-n98ct 1/1 Running 0 39s 192.168.120.66 minikube
```
With Helm now installed, you will need to start a local [Helm server](https://github.com/kubernetes/helm/blob/7a15ad381eae794a36494084972e350306e498fd/docs/helm/helm_serve.md#helm-serve) (in the background), and point to a locally provided Helm [repository](https://github.com/kubernetes/helm/blob/7a15ad381eae794a36494084972e350306e498fd/docs/helm/helm_repo_index.md#helm-repo-index):
```
$ helm serve . &
$ helm repo add local http://localhost:8879/charts
"local" has been added to your repositories
```
Verify that the local repository is working correctly:
```
$ helm repo list
NAME URL
stable https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com/
local http://localhost:8879/charts
```
Now you will want to download the latest release of the project, preferably from `master` since you are following the "developer" instructions.
```
$ git clone https://github.com/att-comdev/openstack-helm.git
```
Next, build in the git repo you have just cloned, and push the charts to your new local repository:
```
$ cd openstack-helm
$ make
```
Perfect! Youre ready to install, deploy, develop, destroy, repeat!
# Installation and Testing
After following the instructions above, you are in a state where you can develop for the project. If you need to make any changes to a chart, all you need to do is run `make` again. The charts will be updated in your local repository.
To deploy the Charts, you will want to make some important considerations:
* Persistent Storage for "Development" Mode is `hostPath`.
* Make sure to note `values.yaml` for the MariaDB chart. You will will want to have the `hostPath` directory created prior to deploying MariaDB.
* Do *not* install the `common` `ceph` or `bootstrap` charts. These charts are required for deploying Ceph PVC's.
* If Ceph development is required, you will need to follow the quickstart guide rather than this Development mode documentation.
To deploy Openstack-Helm in "development” mode, first ensure that you have created a minikube-approved hostPath volume. Minikube is very specific about what is expected for hostPath volumes. The following volumes are acceptable for minikube deployments:
```
/data
/var/lib/localkube
/var/lib/docker
```
So we recommend creating one for MariaDB like shown below.
```
$ sudo mkdir -p /data/openstack-helm/mariadb
```
Next, label your minikube node according to the documentation in our installation guide (this remains exactly the same).
```
$ kubectl label nodes openstack-control-plane=enabled --all --namespace=openstack
```
***NOTE:*** *You do not need to label your minikube cluster for `ceph-storage`, since development mode uses hostPath.*
Now you can deploy the first recommended chart (required by all other child charts), MariaDB.
```
$ helm install --name mariadb --set development.enabled=true local/mariadb --namespace=openstack
```
***IMPORTANT:*** *MariaDB seeding tasks run for quite a while. This is expected behavior. Please wait for a few minutes for these jobs to complete.*
Once MariaDB is deployed fulfilled, you can deploy other charts as needed.
```
$ helm install --name=memcached local/memcached --namespace=openstack
$ helm install --name=rabbitmq local/rabbitmq --namespace=openstack
$ helm install --name=keystone local/keystone --namespace=openstack
$ helm install --name=horizon local/horizon --namespace=openstack
$ helm install --name=glance local/glance --namespace=openstack
$ helm install --name=glance local/nova --namespace=openstack
$ helm install --name=glance local/neutron --namespace=openstack
```
# Troubleshooting
In order to protect your general sanity, we've included a currated list of verification and troubleshooting steps that may help you avoid some potential issues while developing Openstack-Helm.
**MariaDB**
To verify the state of MariaDB, use the following command:
```
$ kubectl exec mariadb-0 -it -- mysql -uroot -ppassword -e 'show databases;'
+--------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| mysql |
| performance_schema |
+--------------------+
$
```
**Helm Server/Repository**
Sometimes you will run into Helm server or repository issues. For our purposes, it's mostly safe to whack these. If you are developing charts for other projects, use at your own risk (you most likely know how to resolve these issues already).
To check for a running instance of Helm Server:
```
$ ps -a | grep "helm serve"
29452 ttys004 0:00.23 helm serve .
35721 ttys004 0:00.00 grep --color=auto helm serve
```
Kill the "helm serve" running process:
```
$ kill 29452
```
To clear out previous Helm repositories, and reinstall a local repository:
```
$ helm repo list
NAME URL
stable https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com/
local http://localhost:8879/charts
$
$ helm repo remove local
```
This allows you to readd your local repository, if you ever need to do these steps:
```
$ helm repo add local http://localhost:8879/charts
```
