This tool was very useful when I was using Rancher 1.x - but I have since moved to Rancher 2 with Kubernetes and I no longer use this.
Feel free to use this tool, fork the project and improve it.
If someone would like to take ownership of it, please let me know (open an issue). A few people forked the project and improved upon it already.
Gaucho is simply some Python scripts to access the Rancher's API to perform tasks which I need to have executed through my deployment workflow.
At this point, it does not contain much but it might grow as I get more requirements.
Contributions are welcome if you want to use it and add to it.
Gaucho can be run directly on a command line provided you have Python installed as well as the dependencies listed below.
It can also be run as a Docker container:
docker run --rm -it etlweather/gaucho query 1s245
Gaucho needs to know the Rancher host and must be given an access key and access secret to be able to interact with the Rancher's API. This can be done through environment variables:
CATTLE_ACCESS_KEYCATTLE_SECRET_KEYCATTLE_URL
If you want to turn off SSL validation because you are using a self-signed certificate or a private CA-signed certificate, you can pass the environment variable:
- `SSL_VERIFY=false`
You can also mount the SSL certificate chain into the container, and pass the path to the certificate as an environment variable:
-v /path/to/ca_chain.crt:/root/ca.crt-e SSL_VERIFY=/root/ca.crt
If you run Gaucho in a container on Rancher, rather than set the environment variables manually, use the following labels to have Rancher automatically do it for you.
io.rancher.container.create_agent=true
io.rancher.container.agent.role=environment
