* The section about service conf attributes should be linked from all other
  cookbooks

Description
===========
This cookbook provides common setup recipes, helper methods and attributes that describe an OpenStack deployment as part of the OpenStack reference deployment Chef for OpenStack.
This cookbook provides common setup recipes, helper methods and attributes that
describe an OpenStack deployment as part of the OpenStack reference deployment
Chef for OpenStack.
Please relate to the official OpenStack Configuration Reference for a more detailed documentation on operating and administration of an OpenStack cluster:
http://docs.openstack.org/mitaka/config-reference/index.html

* Chef 0.10.0 or higher required (for Chef environment use).
- Chef 12 or higher
- chefdk 0.9.0 for testing (also includes berkshelf for cookbook dependency
resolution)
Platform
========
- ubuntu
- redhat
- centos

Please see the extensive inline documentation in `attributes/*.rb` for
descriptions of all the settable attributes for this cookbook.
Note that all attributes are in the `default["openstack"]` "namespace"
* `openstack['api']['auth']['version']` - Select v2.0 or v3.0. Default v2.0. The default auth API version used by other components to interact with identity service.
## Attributes to generate OpenStack service configuration files
default
-------
Since the mitaka release, we moved to a completely new way to generate all
OpenStack service configuration files. The base template is the
'openstack-service.conf.erb' included in the templates of this cookbook. In each
of the service cookbook (e.g. openstack-network, openstack-identity or
openstack-compute), the service configuration file (e.g neutron.conf,
keystone.conf or nova.conf) gets generated directly from attributes set inside of
the cookbook. To merge all the configuration options (including the secrets)
properly, before handing them over as '@service_config' to the mentioned
template above, we use the methods defined in 'libraries/config_helpers'.
Support multiple network types. Default network type is "nova" with the other option supported being "neutron".
The attribute is in the `default["openstack"]["compute"]["network"]["service_type"]`.
For examples how to use these attributes, please refer to the attribute files
included in the service cookbooks (e.g. attributes/neutron_conf.rb in
openstack-network or attributes/keystone_conf.rb in openstack-identity). The
basic structure of all these attributes always follows this model:
```
# usual config option that should evventually be saved to the node object
default['openstack'][service]['conf'][section][key][value]
# configuration options like passwords that should not be saved in the node
# object
default['openstack'][service]['conf_secrets'][section][key][value]
```

set_endpoints_by_interface
----
Iterates over the contents of the `node['openstack']['endpoints']` hash and
finds any occurrence of `bind_interface` to set the IP address
(`node['openstack']['endpoints']['identity']['bind_interface'] = 'eth0'` for
example, overriding `node['openstack']['endpoints']['identity']['host']`). If
`bind_interface` isn't set, the value of `host` is not modified.
```json
"run_list": [
"recipe[openstack-common::set_endpoints_by_interface]"
]
```
openrc
----
Creates an /root/openrc file. This requires the identity attributes for
admin_user and admin_tenant_name, or for the identity_service_chef_role
to be used on the identity server node.
sysctl
----
Iterates over the contents of the `node['openstack']['sysctl']` hash and writes
the entries to `/etc/sysctl.d/60-openstack.conf`.
```json
"run_list": [
"recipe[openstack-common::sysctl]"

- Iterates over the contents of the `node['openstack']['sysctl']` hash and
writes the entries to `/etc/sysctl.d/60-openstack.conf`.
Data Bags
=========
This cookbook containes Libraries to work with passwords and secrets in databags. Databags can be unencrypted ( for dev ) or encrypted ( for prod ). In addition to traditionally encrypted data bags they can also be created as chef-vault items. To read more about chef-vault and how to use it, go to https://docs.getchef.com/chef_vault.html.

LWRPs

This cookbook provides the openstack_common_database LWRP, which replaces the old database library function 'db_create_with_user'.
When this coobook is included as dependency, this LWRP can be used to create databases needed by the openstack services.

Testing
=====
Please refer to the [TESTING.md](TESTING.md) for instructions for testing the cookbook.
Berkshelf
=====
Berks will resolve version requirements and dependencies on first run and
store these in Berksfile.lock. If new cookbooks become available you can run
`berks update` to update the references in Berksfile.lock. Berksfile.lock will
be included in stable branches to provide a known good set of dependencies.
Berksfile.lock will not be included in development branches to encourage
development against the latest cookbooks.
