Hi,
it would make sense to have a library for the code shared by Tuskar UI
and CLI (I mean TripleO CLI - whatever it will be, not tuskarclient
which is just a thing wrapper for Tuskar API). There are various actions
which consist from "more that a single API call to an openstack
service", to give some examples:
- nodes registration - for loading a list of nodes from a user defined
file, this means parsing a CSV file and then feeding Ironic with this data
- decommission a resource node - this might consist of disabling
monitoring/health checks on this node, then gracefully shut down the node
- stack breakpoints - setting breakpoints will allow manual
inspection/validation of changes during stack-update, user can then
update nodes one-by-one and trigger rollback if needed
It would be nice to have a place (library) where the code could live and
where it could be shared both by web UI and CLI. We already have
os-cloud-config [1] library which focuses on configuring OS cloud after
first installation only (setting endpoints, certificates, flavors...) so
not all shared code fits here. It would make sense to create a new
library where this code could live. This lib could be placed on
Stackforge for now and it might have very similar structure as
os-cloud-config.
And most important... what is the best name? Some of ideas were:
- tuskar-common
- tripleo-common
- os-cloud-management - I like this one, it's consistent with the
os-cloud-config naming
Any thoughts? Thanks, Jan
