Installation Guide

Tuskar source code should be pulled directly from git:

git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack/tuskar

Dependencies

Setting up a local environment for development can be done with tox:

# install prerequisites
* Ubuntu/Debian:
$ sudo apt-get install python-dev swig libssl-dev python-pip libmysqlclient-dev libxml2-dev libxslt-dev gcc
* Fedora/RHEL:
$ sudo yum install python-devel swig openssl-devel python-pip mysql-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel gcc
# Note that as of Fedora 19, you need to use the community
  upstream for mysql, called mariadb-devel

$ sudo pip install virtualenv setuptools-git flake8 tox

You may need to downgrade tox, due to an issue described here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-ci/+bug/1274135:

$ sudo pip uninstall --yes tox virtualenv
$ sudo rm -rf /tmp/pip-build-* /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/tox \
      /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/virtualenv \
      /usr/local/bin/tox /usr/local/bin/virtualenv
$ sudo pip install -U tox==1.6.1 virtualenv==1.10.1

Now create your virtualenv:

$ cd <your_src_dir>/tuskar
$ tox -e py27

Note

If pip install fails due to an outdated setuptools, you can try to update it first:

$ sudo pip install --upgrade setuptools

Configuration

Copy the sample configuration file:

$ cp etc/tuskar/tuskar.conf.sample etc/tuskar/tuskar.conf

Edit the config file and uncomment the heat_keystone section at the bottom:

[heat_keystone]

username = heat
password = heat
tenant_name = admin
auth_url = http://localhost:35357/v2.0
insecure = True

Note

Replace these values with credentials for our undercloud OpenStack. If you're using Devstack, the username and password are printed out when stack.sh finishes its job.

You will need a local checkout of the tripleo-heat-templates. Uncomment the configuration entry that is defined for this purpose: tht_local_dir should point to your local copy of the tripleo-heat-templates:

tht_local_dir = /etc/tuskar/tripleo-heat-templates/

At tuskar startup, if the directory specified by tht_local_dir in your tuskar.conf doesn't exist startup will fail. You can clone the templates:

(sudo) git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack/tripleo-heat-templates /etc/tuskar/tripleo-heat-templates/

We need to initialise the database schema:

# activate the virtualenv
$ source .tox/py27/bin/activate

# if you delete tuskar.sqlite this will force creation of tables again - e.g.
# if you added a new resource table definitions etc in an existing migration
# file
$ tuskar-dbsync --config-file etc/tuskar/tuskar.conf

You can verify this was successful (in addition to seeing no error output) with:

$ sqlite3 tuskar/openstack/common/db/tuskar.sqlite .schema

Then, launch the app:

$ tuskar-api --config-file etc/tuskar/tuskar.conf

Assuming this is your first time running with a new database, you should populate the DB with some initial data:

$ python tools/initial_data.py

This will create four Overcloud Roles. You can then verify that everything worked by running:

$ curl -v -X GET -H 'Accept: application/json' http://0.0.0.0:8585/v1/overcloud_roles/ | python -mjson.tool

This command should return JSON for four Overcloud Roles.

Keystone Configuration

By default, Tuskar is configured to skip authentication for REST API calls. Keystone authentication can be enabled by making the appropriate changes to the tuskar.conf file as described here: http://docs.openstack.org/developer/keystone/configuringservices.html

Running Tuskar API

Whenever you want to run the API again, just switch to the virtualenv and run tuskar-api command:

$ source .tox/py27/bin/activate
$ tuskar-api --config-file etc/tuskar/tuskar.conf
