# horizon-operator | ||
// TODO(bshephar): Add simple overview of use/purpose | ||
|
||
The Horizon Operator deploys the OpenStack Horizon project in a OpenShift cluster. | ||
|
||
## Description | ||
// TODO(bshephar): An in-depth paragraph about your project and overview of use | ||
|
||
This project should be used to deploy the OpenStack Horizon project. It expects that there is an existing Database and Keystone service available to connect to. | ||
|
||
## Getting Started | ||
// TODO(bshephar) | ||
|
||
This operator is deployed via Operator Lifecycle Manager as part of the OpenStack Operator bundle: | ||
https://github.com/openstack-k8s-operators/openstack-operator | ||
|
||
To configure Horizon specifically, we expose options to add custom configuration and the number of replicas for both Horizon API and Horizon Engine: | ||
|
||
The following is taken from the Sample config in this repo: | ||
|
||
```yaml | ||
spec: | ||
replicas: 1 | ||
secret: "osp-secret" | ||
customServiceConfig: | | ||
SESSION_TIMEOUT = 3600 | ||
``` | ||
We can see in this example, that we're making some customizations to the config. In this case, we're using `SESSION_TIMEOUT = 3600`. | ||
|
||
Customisations are added to the `horizon-config-data` ConfigMap. If we look at a default ConfigMap with no customizations, we can see it has the following Keys: | ||
```sh | ||
❯ oc get cm horizon-config-data -o jsonpath={.data} | jq '. | keys' | ||
[ | ||
"9999_custom_settings.py", | ||
"horizon.json", | ||
"httpd.conf", | ||
"local_settings.py", | ||
"ssl.conf" | ||
] | ||
``` | ||
Any user provided customizations will go into the `9999_custom_settings.py` section. Without any customizations, it will just contain the default description: | ||
```sh | ||
❯ oc get cm horizon-config-data -o jsonpath={.data} | jq '."9999_custom_settings.py"' | ||
"# add your customization here" | ||
``` | ||
|
||
After applying our changes via the `OpenStackControlPlane` Custom Resource, we can see that this is now populated with our custom `SESSION_TIMEOUT` setting: | ||
```sh | ||
❯ oc patch openstackcontrolplane/openstack -p '{"spec": {"horizon": {"template": {"customServiceConfig": "SESSION_TIMEOUT = 3600" }}}}' --type=merge | ||
openstackcontrolplane.core.openstack.org/openstack patched | ||
❯ oc get cm horizon-config-data -o jsonpath={.data} | jq '."9999_custom_settings.py"' | ||
"SESSION_TIMEOUT = 3600" | ||
``` | ||
|
||
|
||
We can see this change reflected in the `/etc/openstack-dashboard/local_settings.d/9999_custom_settings.py` file within the Horizon pod: | ||
|
||
```sh | ||
❯ oc get po -l service=horizon | ||
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE | ||
horizon-65c6b8fff8-8sqr9 0/1 Running 0 63s | ||
❯ oc exec horizon-65c6b8fff8-8sqr9 -- cat /etc/openstack-dashboard/local_settings.d/9999_custom_settings.py | ||
SESSION_TIMEOUT = 3600% | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Running on the cluster | ||
|
||
To enable the Horizon service, we simply need to set the Horizon service to enabled in the `OpenStackControlPlane`. | ||
The following snippet is taken from the `OpenStackControlPlane` Custom Resource: | ||
|
||
```yaml | ||
❯ oc get openstackcontrolplane openstack -o yaml | yq .spec.horizon | ||
enabled: true | ||
template: | ||
containerImage: "" | ||
customServiceConfig: SESSION_TIMEOUT = 3600 | ||
debug: | ||
service: false | ||
preserveJobs: false | ||
replicas: 1 | ||
resources: {} | ||
route: | ||
routeName: horizon | ||
secret: osp-secret | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Undeploy controller | ||
|
||
To undeploy the operator, simply set the `enabled` value to false from within the `OpenStackControlPlane` resource. | ||
|
||
## Contributing | ||
|
||
The following guide relies on a already deployed `OpenStackControlPlane`. If you don't already have this, you can | ||
follow the guides located on the following repo: | ||
https://github.com/openstack-k8s-operators/install_yamls | ||
|
||
To contribute, you can disabled the Horizon service in the `OpenStackControlPlane` resouce and run the Operator locally | ||
from your laptop using `make install run`. This will start the operator locally, and debugging can be done without | ||
building and pushing a new container. | ||
|
||
Once you have tested your feature, you can use `pre-commit run --all-files` to ensure the change passes preliminary | ||
testing. | ||
|
||
Ensure you have created an issue against the project and send a PR linking to the relevant issue. You can reach out | ||
to the maintainers from the included OWNERS file for change reviews. | ||
|
||
### How it works | ||
|
||
This project aims to follow the Kubernetes [Operator pattern](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/extend-kubernetes/operator/) | ||
|
||
It uses [Controllers](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/architecture/controller/) | ||
which provides a reconcile function responsible for synchronizing resources untile the desired state is reached on the cluster | ||
|
||
### Modifying the API definitions | ||
|
||
If you are editing the API definitions, generate the manifests such as CRs or CRDs using: | ||
|
||
```sh | ||
make manifests | ||
``` | ||
|
||
**NOTE:** Run `make --help` for more information on all potential `make` targets | ||
