Quality Assurance for Infrastructure Orchestrators

Placeholder for contents related to the infrastructure orchestrator project. Contents will soon be updated.

Organization

• Branches: master (active), smith (inactive), lamia (inactive)

Usage

• output YAML files by default are to be saved to {{ PROJECT_ROOT }}/data/generated_yaml/<timestamp>/lv{{ LEVEL }}
  • corresponding dataset is saved to {{ PROJECT_ROOT }}/data/generated_yaml/<timestamp>

Code Installation

• create a virtual environment for python version 3.10 and activate it
• in <project root> run pip install -e .

Now you can run the program by calling cftools in your terminal

Docker Infrastructure Setup

1. install docker
2. change directory to {{ PROJECT_ROOT }}/files/docker_scripts
3. build the images by running ./build all

• these images are used to deploy our ansible hosts for testing

4. deploy the infrastructure by running ./run

• this just executes the docker command that utilizes the docker-compose.yml file in the same directory

5. change directory to {{ PROJECT_ROOT }}/files/docker_scripts/ssh
6. run ./add_to_personal to import the ssh key and config file required to connect to the docker hosts without a password

• NOTE this script should only be executed once. If there was a mistake and you need to execute it again, you will have to read the script and manually find the commands you need to re-execute.
• optionally you can just follow the commands that are listed in the contents of add_to_personal so you can see what gets changed

7. if all goes well, you should now be able to ssh into your docker hosts. try the following commands:

• ssh ubuntu1
• ssh alpine1
• ssh centos1
• ssh redhat1

8. if you can connect to your docker hosts then you are done.
