Apply configuration from cloud metadata (JSON)
What does it do?
It turns metadata from one or more JSON files like this:
{"keystone": {"database": {"host": "127.0.0.1", "user": "keystone", "password": "foobar"}}}
into service config files like this:
[sql] connection = mysql://keystone:foobar@127.0.0.1/keystone ...other settings...
Usage
Just pass it the path to a directory tree of templates:
sudo os-apply-config -t /home/me/my_templates
By default it will read config files according to the contents of the file /var/lib/os-collect-config/os_config_files.json. In order to remain backward compatible it will also fall back to /var/run/os-collect-config/os_config_files.json, but the fallback path is deprecated and will be removed in a later release. The main path can be changed with the command line switch –os-config-files, or the environment variable OS_CONFIG_FILES_PATH. The list can also be overridden with the environment variable OS_CONFIG_FILES. If overriding with OS_CONFIG_FILES, the paths are expected to be colon, “:”, separated. Each json file referred to must have a mapping as their root structure. Keys in files mentioned later in the list will override keys in earlier files from this list. For example:
OS_CONFIG_FILES=/tmp/ec2.json:/tmp/cfn.json os-apply-config
This will read ec2.json and cfn.json, and if they have any overlapping keys, the value from cfn.json will be used. That will populate the tree for any templates found in the template path. See https://opendev.org/openstack/os-collect-config for a program that will automatically collect data and populate this list.
You can also override OS_CONFIG_FILES with the –metadata command line option, specifying it multiple times instead of colon separating the list.
os-apply-config will also always try to read metadata in the old legacy paths first to populate the tree. These paths can be changed with –fallback-metadata.
Templates
The template directory structure should mimic a root filesystem, and contain templates for only those files you want configured. For example:
~/my_templates$ tree
.
+-- etc
+-- keystone
| +-- keystone.conf
+-- mysql
+-- mysql.conf
An example tree can be found here.
If a template is executable it will be treated as an executable template. Otherwise, it will be treated as a mustache template.
Mustache Templates
If you don’t need any logic, just some string substitution, use a mustache template.
Metadata settings are accessed with dot (‘.’) notation:
[sql]
connection = mysql://{{keystone.database.user}}:{{keystone.database.password}}@{{keystone.database.host}}/keystone
Executable Templates
Configuration requiring logic is expressed in executable templates.
An executable template is a script which accepts configuration as a JSON string on standard in, and writes a config file to standard out.
The script should exit non-zero if it encounters a problem, so that os-apply-config knows what’s up.
The output of the script will be written to the path corresponding to the executable template’s path in the template tree:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'json'
params = JSON.parse STDIN.read
puts "connection = mysql://#{c['keystone']['database']['user']}:#{c['keystone']['database']['password']}@#{c['keystone']['database']['host']}/keystone"
You could even embed mustache in a heredoc, and use that:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'json'
require 'mustache'
params = JSON.parse STDIN.read
template = <<-eos
[sql]
connection = mysql://{{keystone.database.user}}:{{keystone.database.password}}@{{keystone.database.host}}/keystone
[log]
...
eos
# tweak params here...
puts Mustache.render(template, params)
