Configuring Adjutant ==================== Adjutant is designed to be highly configurable for various needs. The goal of Adjutant is to provide a variety of common tasks and actions that can be easily extended or changed based upon the needs of your OpenStack cluster. For configuration Adjutant uses a library called CONFspirator to define and register our config values. This makes the app better at processing defaults and checking the validity of the config. An example Adjutant config file is found in conf/adjutant.yaml, and a new one can be generated by running:: tox -e venv -- adjutant-api exampleconfig --output-file /etc/adjutant/adjutant.yaml With ``--output-file`` controlling where the file goes. This example file should be your starting point for configuring the service, and your core source of documentation for what each config does. Adjutant will read the file from ``/etc/adjutant/adjutant.yaml`` or if the environment variable ``ADJUTANT_CONFIG_FILE`` is set, will look for the file in the specified location. Configuration options +++++++++++++++++++++ Django group ------------ The first part of the configuration file contains standard Django settings, and for the most part the generated example config will explain all the options. Identity group -------------- Are the configs for how Adjutant interacts with Keystone, with the important ones being as follows: **adjutant.identity.username_is_email** impacts account creation, and email modification actions. In the case that it is true, any task passing a username and email pair, the username will be ignored. This also impacts where emails are sent to. **adjutant.identity.auth** Are the credentials that Adjutant uses to talk to Keystone, and the various other OpenStack services. **adjutant.identity.role_mapping** defines which roles can modify other roles. In the default configuration a user who has the role project_mod will not be able to modify any of the roles for a user with the project_admin role. API group --------- Controls which DelegateAPIs are enabled, and what some of their configuration may be. Notifications group ------------------- Default settings around what notifications should do during the task workflows. Workflow group -------------- **adjutant.workflow.task_defaults** Represents the default settings for all tasks unless otherwise overridden for individual tasks in ``adjutant.workflow.tasks``. Default action settings. **adjutant.workflow.action_defaults** Are the default settings for each action and can be overriden on a per task basis via ``adjutant.workflow.tasks..actions``. Email and notification templates ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Additional templates can be placed in ``/etc/adjutant/templates/`` and will be loaded in automatically. A plain text template and an HTML template can be specified separately. The context for this will include the task object and a dictionary containing the action objects.
