fleeting-plugin-openstack

GitLab fleeting plugin for OpenStack.

https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/executors/docker_autoscaler.html

Plugin Configuration

The following parameters are supported:

Parameter Type Description
cloud string Name of the cloud config from clouds.yaml to use
clouds_config string Optional. Path to clouds.yaml
name string Name of the Auto Scaling Group (unique string that used to find instances)
nova_microversion string Optional. Microversion for the Openstack Nova client. Default 2.79 (which should be ok for Train+)
boot_time string Optional. Maximum wait time for instance to boot up. During that time plugin check Cloud-Init signatures.
use_ignition string Enable Fedora CoreOS / Flatcar Linux Ignition support
server_spec object Server spec used to create instances. See: Compute API

Default connector config

Parameter Default
os linux
protocol ssh
username unset
use_static_credentials false

OpenStack setup

  1. You should create a special user (recommended) and project (optional), then export clouds.yaml with credentials for that cloud.

  2. You may create a tenant network for workers, in that case don't forget to add a router. In that case manager VM should have two ports: external and that tenant network, so it will be able to connect to the worker instances.

  3. You should upload a special image with container runtime installed in it. For example we use Flatcar Linux

  4. (Optional) You should generate SSH keypair which will be used by manager instance to connect to workers. Public key must be added to Nova from the user.

    Note: that key required only for Cloud-Init based images. For a Flatcar plugin can generate dynamic ssh key and pass it via Ignition script.

Preparation of the resources could be done by Heat using heat/stack.yaml. But consider it as an example.
