THT design patterns
-------------------
.. _duplicated-parameters:
Duplicated parameters
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Problem: When defining multiple related services, it can be necessary
to define the same parameters (such as rabbit or DB credentials) in
multiple service templates. To avoid this, it is possible to define a
"base" heat template that contains the common parameters and config_settings
mapping for those services that require it.
This pattern will describe how to avoid duplicated parameters in the THT yaml
files.
``mongodb-base.yaml``: This file should have all the common parameters between
the different environments (With pacemaker and without pacemaker).

Configuration details for MongoDB service using composable roles
parameters:
MongoDbNoJournal:
default: false
description: Should MongoDb journaling be disabled
type: boolean
MongoDbIPv6:
default: false
description: Enable IPv6 if MongoDB VIP is IPv6
type: boolean
MongoDbReplset:
type: string
default: "tripleo"
outputs:
role_data:
description: Role data for the MongoDB base service.
value:
config_settings:
mongodb::server::nojournal: {get_param: MongoDbNoJournal}
mongodb::server::ipv6: {get_param: MongoDbIPv6}
mongodb::server::replset: {get_param: MongoDbReplset}
In this way we will be able to reuse the common parameter among all the
template files requiring it.
Referencing the common parameter:
``mongodb.yaml``: Will have specific parameters to deploy mongodb without
pacemaker.

description: >
MongoDb service deployment using puppet
parameters:
#Parameters not used EndpointMap
EndpointMap:
default: {}
description: Mapping of service endpoint -> protocol. Typically set
via parameter_defaults in the resource registry.
type: json
resources:
MongoDbBase:
type: ./mongodb-base.yaml
outputs:
role_data:
description: Service mongodb using composable services.
value:
config_settings:
map_merge:
- get_attr: [MongoDbBase, role_data, config_settings]
- mongodb::server::service_manage: True
step_config: |
include ::tripleo::profile::base::database::mongodb
In this case mongodb.yaml is using all the common parameter added in the
MongoDbBase resource.
If using the parameter 'EndpointMap' in the base template, you must the pass it from from the service file,
and even if it is not used in the service template, it must still be defined.
In the service file:
::
parameters:
EndpointMap:
default: {}
description: Mapping of service endpoint -> protocol. Typically set
via parameter_defaults in the resource registry.
type: json
resources:
<ServiceName>ServiceBase:
type: ./<ServiceName>-base.yaml
properties:
EndpointMap: {get_param: EndpointMap}
This will pass the endpoint information to the base config file.
.. note::
Even if the EndpointMap parameter is optional in the base template,
for consistency is advised always using it in all service templates.
