RDMA Data Transport integration with SEP Pipeline

This project defines the integration between various component repository on Kubernetes.

Helm

Helm is a tool for managing Kubernetes charts. Charts are packages of pre-configured Kubernetes resources.

All the charts are included in the folder “charts”. Every chart has the following structure:

Chart.yaml          # A YAML file containing information about the chart
values.yaml         # The default configuration values for this chart
chart/              # A directory containing any charts upon which this chart depends.
chart/templates/    # A directory of templates that, when combined with values,
                    # will generate valid Kubernetes manifest files.
# Chart.yaml
apiVersion: v1
appVersion: "1.0"
description: A Helm chart for deploying the Tango-Base on Kubernetes
name: tango-base
version: 0.1.0
# example of values
tmcprototype:
 enabled: true
 image:
    registry: nexus.engageska-portugal.pt/tango-example
    image: tmcprototype
    tag: latest
    pullPolicy: Always

Update chart settings.

In some cases you may want to alter the settings applied in the chart. E.g To set the Elastic index lifetime management policy to keep logs for 2 days, update values.yaml to the following:

elastic:
 enabled: true
 image:
  registry: docker.elastic.co
  image: elasticsearch/elasticsearch
  tag: 7.4.2
  pullPolicy: IfNotPresent
 ilm:
  rollover:
   max_size: "1gb"
   max_age: "2d" # Update here
   delete:
   min_age: "1d"

Testing the Pipeline

Todo

Available resources

The folder called “resources” is a collection of resources used for testing and for configuration.

Makefile targets

This project contains a Makefile which defines the following targets:

Makefile target Description
vars Display variables
k8s Which kubernetes are we connected to
logs POD logs for descriptor
namespace create the kubernetes namespace
deploy deploy the helm chart
show show the helm chart
delete delete the helm chart release
gangway install gangway authentication for gitlab (kube-system namespace)
poddescribe describe Pods executed from Helm chart
podlogs show Helm chart POD logs
help Show the help summary

Ansible

It is possible to setup a local SKAMPI environment using the ansible playbook available here.
