Our current version based upon conversations with TTX was 0.1.0. It appears now that the full API is nearly stable. It is stable enough to call our first Liberty release 1.0.0. The API consists of the following data: The locations of config files passed to the container The environment variables expected by the container The JSON encoded file containing the copy and cmd operations Each container in current master follows the same sytnax and style for all of the implementations of every container that atleast has been Ansibilized. backport: liberty Change-Id: I2064689ca6fd9f332ad26624e1b93f6aaa08e79b Closes-Bug: #1503494
Kolla Overview
The Kolla project is a member of the OpenStack Big Tent Governance. Kolla's mission statement is:
Kolla provides production-ready containers and deployment tools for
operating OpenStack clouds.Kolla provides Docker containers and Ansible playbooks to meet Kolla's mission. Kolla is highly opinionated out of the box, but allows for complete customization. This permits operators with little experience to deploy OpenStack quickly and as experience grows modify the OpenStack configuration to suit the operator's exact requirements.
Getting Started
Please get started by reading the Developer Quickstart followed by the Ansible Deployment Guide.
Docker Images
The Docker images are built by the Kolla project maintainers. A detailed process for contributing to the images can be found in the image building guide. Images reside in the Docker Hub Kollaglue repo.
The Kolla developers build images in the kollaglue namespace for the following services for every tagged release and implement Ansible deployment for them:
- Ceilometer
- Cinder
- Glance
- Haproxy
- Heat
- Horizon
- Keepalived
- Keystone
- Mariadb + galera
- Mongodb
- Neutron (linuxbridge or neutron)
- Nova
- Openvswitch
- Rabbitmq
$ sudo docker search kollaglueA list of the upstream built docker images will be shown.
Directories
- ansible - Contains Anible playbooks to deploy Kolla in Docker containers.
- compose - Contains the docker-compose files serving as a compose reference. Note compose support is removed from Kolla. These are for community members which want to use Kolla container content without Ansible.
- demos - Contains a few demos to use with Kolla.
- devenv - Contains an OpenStack-Heat based development environment.
- doc - Contains documentation.
- etc - Contains a reference etc directory structure which requires configuration of a small number of configuration variables to achieve a working All-in-One (AIO) deployment.
- docker - Contains jinja2 templates for the docker build system.
- tools - Contains tools for interacting with Kolla.
- specs - Contains the Kolla communities key arguments about architectural shifts in the code base.
- tests - Contains functional testing tools.
- vagrant - Contains a vagrant VirtualBox-based development environment.
