Helpers for Juju Charm development

Project description

# CharmHelpers

## Overview

CharmHelpers provides an opinionated set of tools for building Juju charms.

## Common Usage Examples

  • interaction with charm-specific Juju unit agents via hook tools;

  • processing of events and execution of decorated functions based on event names;

  • handling of persistent storage between independent charm invocations;

  • rendering of configuration file templates;

  • modification of system configuration files;

  • installation of packages;

  • retrieval of machine-specific details;

  • implementation of application-specific code reused in similar charms.

## Why Python?

  • Python is an extremely popular, easy to learn, and powerful language which is also common in automation tools;

  • An interpreted language helps with charm portability across different CPU architectures;

  • Doesn’t require debugging symbols (just use pdb in-place);

  • An author or a user is able to make debugging changes without recompiling a charm.
