How To Contribute

Basics

Our source code is hosted on OpenStack GitHub, but please do not send pull requests there.
Please follow usual OpenStack Gerrit Workflow to submit a patch.
Update change log in README.rst on any significant change.
It goes without saying that any code change should by accompanied by unit tests.
Note the branch you're proposing changes to. master is the current focus of development, use stable/VERSION for proposing an urgent fix, where VERSION is the current stable series. E.g. at the moment of writing the stable branch is stable/1.0.
Please file a launchpad blueprint for any significant code change and a bug for any significant bug fix.

Development Environment

First of all, install tox utility. It's likely to be in your distribution repositories under name of python-tox. Alternatively, you can install it from PyPI.

Next checkout and create environments:

git clone https://github.com/openstack/ironic-inspector.git
cd ironic-inspector
tox

Repeat tox command each time you need to run tests. If you don't have Python interpreter of one of supported versions (currently 2.7 and 3.4), use -e flag to select only some environments, e.g.

tox -e py27

Note

Support for Python 3 is highly experimental, stay with Python 2 for the production environment for now.

There is a simple functional test that involves fetching the ramdisk from Github:

tox -e func

Run the service with:

.tox/py27/bin/ironic-inspector --config-file example.conf

Of course you may have to modify example.conf to match your OpenStack environment.

You can develop and test ironic-inspector using DevStack - see DevStack Support for the current status.

DevStack Support

DevStack provides a way to quickly build full OpenStack development environment with requested components. There is a plugin for installing ironic-inspector on DevStack.

Example local.conf

[[local|localrc]]
enable_service ironic ir-api ir-cond
disable_service n-net n-novnc
enable_service neutron q-svc q-agt q-dhcp q-l3 q-meta
disable_service heat h-api h-api-cfn h-api-cw h-eng
disable_service cinder c-sch c-api c-vol

enable_plugin ironic-inspector https://github.com/openstack/ironic-inspector

IRONIC_BAREMETAL_BASIC_OPS=True
IRONIC_VM_COUNT=2
IRONIC_VM_SPECS_RAM=1024
IRONIC_DEPLOY_FLAVOR="fedora deploy-ironic"

IRONIC_INSPECTOR_RAMDISK_FLAVOR="fedora ironic-discoverd-ramdisk"

VIRT_DRIVER=ironic

LOGDAYS=1
LOGFILE=~/logs/stack.sh.log
SCREEN_LOGDIR=~/logs/screen

DEFAULT_INSTANCE_TYPE=baremetal
TEMPEST_ALLOW_TENANT_ISOLATION=False

Notes

Replace "fedora" with whatever you have
You need at least 1G of RAM for VMs, default value of 512 MB won't work
Network configuration is pretty sensitive, better not to touch it without deep understanding
This configuration disables Heat and Cinder, adjust it if you need these services
Before restarting stack.sh:
```
rm -rf /opt/stack/ironic-inspector
```

Test

There is a test script included:

source devstack/openrc admin admin
/opt/stack/ironic-inspector/devstack/exercise.sh

Usage

Start introspection for a node manually:

source devstack/openrc admin admin
openstack baremetal introspection start <UUID>

Then check status via API:

openstack baremetal introspection status <UUID>

Writing a Plugin

ironic-inspector allows to hook your code into data processing chain after introspection. Inherit ProcessingHook class defined in ironic_inspector.plugins.base module and overwrite any or both of the following methods:

before_processing(node_info): called before any data processing, providing the raw data. Each plugin in the chain can modify the data, so order in which plugins are loaded matters here. Returns nothing.
before_update(node,ports,node_info): called after node is found and ports are created, but before data is updated on a node. Returns JSON patches for node and ports to apply. Please refer to the docstring for details and examples.
