This change proposes a minimal openstack deployment stood up using docker-compose. Included is a script to generate the necessary environment variables for use by the containers as well as an 'openrc'. There is also a script which demonstrates starting the included services. We have this working locally using patched containers and can start instances with networking etc. However, there are several changes required to various containers that will need to be made to get this working. We are also using Steven Dake's patches to docker-compose to allow the use of pid=host. I propose we either merge this change or build changes on top of this to get a functioning installation.

Kolla Overview
The Kolla project is part of the OpenStack TripleO effort, focused on deploying OpenStack services using Docker containers. The initial system spec provides additional details of Kolla and the use cases it addresses.
Getting Started
Deployment on bare metal is a complex topic which is beyond the scope of the project at this time. An environment to simplify the deployment of a single or multi-node Kolla cluster is required for development purposes. As a result, a Heat template has been created for deploying a Kolla cluster to an existing OpenStack cloud.
Docker Images
The Docker images are built by the Kolla project maintainers. A detailed process for contributing to the images can be found here. Images reside in the Docker Hub Kollaglue repo.
The Kolla developers build images in the kollaglue namespace for the following services:
- Glance
- Heat
- Keystone
- Mariadb
- Nova
- Rabbitmq
- Neutron
- Mongodb
- Ceilometer
- Zaqar
- Horizon
$ sudo docker search kollaglue
A list of the upstream built docker images will be shown.
Directories
- docker - contains artifacts for use with docker build to build appropriate images
- k8s - contains service and pod configuration information for Kubernetes
- tools - contains different tools for interacting with Kolla
- devenv - A collection of tools and resources for managing a Kolla development environment.
