Felipe Monteiro 6f86088a9a replacement: Fix update substitution source for replacement
This patchset fixes an edge case with respect to updating
substitution sources after a document has been rendered vis-a-vis
replacement.

Substitution sources only use schema/name which doesn't uniquely
identify replacement documents. Thus, an additional check is
required in `update_substitution_sources` to ensure that the
parent-replacement document doesn't overwrite data for the
child-replacement document.

Note that Deckhand prioritizes the child-replacement to be rendered
immediately after the parent-replacement document, meaning that the
child-replacement document will be the one who correctly updates
the substitution sources (which don't include parent-replacement
documents). Afterward, all other documents that reference the
parent-replacement should get the correct data.

Unit and functional tests have been added for a multi-layer
replacement scenario which regression-test the bug.

Deckhand

Doc Status

Deckhand is a storage service for YAML-based configuration documents, which are managed through version control and automatically validated. Deckhand provides users with a variety of different document types that describe complex configurations using the features listed below.

Find more documentation for Deckhand on Read the Docs.

Core Responsibilities

  • layering - helps reduce duplication in configuration by applying the notion of inheritance to documents
  • substitution - provides separation between secret data and other configuration data for security purposes and reduces data duplication by allowing common data to be defined once and substituted elsewhere dynamically
  • revision history - maintains well-defined collections of documents within immutable revisions that are meant to operate together, while providing the ability to rollback to previous revisions
  • validation - allows services to implement and register different kinds of validations and report errors
  • secret management - leverages existing OpenStack APIs -- namely Barbican -- to reliably and securely store sensitive data

Getting Started

For more detailed installation and setup information, please refer to the Getting Started guide.

Testing

Automated Testing

To run unit tests using sqlite, execute:

$ tox -epy27
$ tox -epy35

against a py27- or py35-backed environment, respectively. To run individual unit tests, run:

$ tox -e py27 -- deckhand.tests.unit.db.test_revisions

for example.

To run functional tests:

$ tox -e functional

You can also run a subset of tests via a regex:

$ tox -e functional -- gabbi.suitemaker.test_gabbi_document-crud-success-multi-bucket

Integration Points

Deckhand has the following integration points:

Note

Currently, other database back-ends are not supported.

Though, being a low-level service, has many other UCP services that integrate with it, including:

  • Drydock is orchestrated by Shipyard to perform bare metal node provisioning.
  • Promenade is indirectly orchestrated by Shipyard to configure and join Kubernetes nodes.
  • Armada is orchestrated by Shipyard to deploy and test Kubernetes workloads.
