As of Ansible v2.2 all the missing modules bifrost requires are included in the pip-installable Ansible package. Let's allow then for a possiibility for bifrost to install Ansible directly from PyPI (into the system or in virtualenv) instead of from cloned source repo. This patsh first extracts the installation of binary/Python dependencies and installation of Ansible itself from the "env-setup.sh" script to two separate scripts "install-deps.sh" and "install-ansible-source.sh". It also adds a third script "install-ansible-pip.sh" that is called when environment variable ANSIBLE_FROM_PYPI is set to "True" (default is "False" for backward compatibility). It then looks up ANSIBLE_PIP_VERSION env variable (defaults to "2.2") and pip-installs Ansible of that given version strictly. Change-Id: Ia72e06d7bf127569d423fa521b8ddab87453809e
Vagrant support for developers
Bifrost vagrant file for developers can be found in the
tools/vagrant_dev_env
directory. Running
vagrant up
from within this folder will bring up an Ubuntu
Trusty box with Bifrost installed.
By default, the VM will have three interfaces:
- eth0 - connected to a NAT network
- eth1 - connected to Host-only network named: vboxnet1
- eth2 - bridged - adapter must be set in Vagrantfile
Walkthrough done on OS X
Setup vagrant by:
- Installing git
- Installing virtualbox
- Installing vagrant
- Installing ansible
Configure Vagrant with the correct box:
vagrant box add ubuntu/trusty64
Clone bifrost repo:
git clone https://github.com/openstack/bifrost.git
Change into the bifrost directory:
cd bifrost/tools/vagrant_dev_env
Edit the Vagrantfile:
- Change the
bifrost.vm.network
public_network
value to a valid network interface to allow Bare Metal connectivity - Change
public_key
to correct key name - Change
network_interface
to match your needs
Boot the VM with:
vagrant up
Installation Options
Ansible is installed within the VM directly from source or from the
path set by ANSIBLE_GIT_URL
. You can modify the path of
installation by setting ANSIBLE_INSTALL_ROOT
environment
variable. The default value is /opt/stack
. When set in the
host, this variable will also be set as an environment variable inside
the VM for use by test scripts.
Note:
Only the ansible installation path is configurable at this point using the enviroment variable. All other dependencies will still continue to cloned under
/opt/stack
.
