[Openstack] [Openstack Tacker] Integrating an application in VNF

Hi Basavaraj:

The most common way to install an application at deployment time is to 
run a shell script that uses wget/curl/apt-get/yum to retrieve the 
binary from a repository and then installs the software and 
configures/runs it.

We don't have any examples of this in the Tacker repo yet because we did 
not have support for the Heat SoftwareConfig/SoftwareDeployment 
resources.  There is a feature under development to integrate 
tosca-parser and heat-translator into Tacker, which will also provide 
the ability to use SoftwareConfig and SoftwareDeployment to simplify 
what you are trying to do.

In the mean time I would recommend something like this as a simple example:

user_data: |
   wget http://repo.url/mybinary
   ./mybinary

Hope this helps

Bob
