# helm_drydock
A python REST orchestrator to translate a YAML host topology to a provisioned set of hosts and provide a set of cloud-init post-provisioning instructions.
## Modular service
### Design Consumer ###
aka ingester
Pluggable service to ingest a inventory/design specification, convert it to a standard
internal representaion, and persist it to the Design State API. Initial implementation
is the consumer of YAML schema.
### Design State API ###
aka statemgmt
API for querying and updating the current design specification and persisted orchestration status.
CRUD support of CIs that are not bootstrap-related, but can be used by other automation.
### Control API ###
aka control
User-approachable API for initiating orchestration actions or accessing other internal
APIs
### Infrastructure Orchestrator ###
aka orchestrator
Handle validation of complete design, ordering and managing downstream API calls for hardware
provisioning/bootstrapping
### OOB Driver ###
Pluggable provider for server OOB (ILO) management
aka driver/oob
### Node Driver ###
aka driver/node
Pluggable provisioner for server bootstrapping. Initial implementation is MaaS client.
### Introspection API ###
aka introspection
API for bootstrapping nodes to load self data. Possibly pluggable as this is basically an
authenticated bridge to the Design State API
