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 <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/devstack/>`_ provides a way to
quickly build full OpenStack development environment with requested
components. There is a plugin for installing **ironic-inspector** on DevStack.

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 you to hook code into the 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(introspection_data,**)``
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(introspection_data,node_info,**)``
called after node is found and ports are created, but before data is
updated on a node. Please refer to the docstring for details
and examples.
.. note::
Keyword arguments node_patches and port_patches are also provided, but
should not be used in new plugins.
Make your plugin a setuptools entry point under
``ironic_inspector.hooks.processing`` namespace and enable it in the
configuration file (``processing.processing_hooks`` option).
* **ironic-inspector** allows plugins to override the action when node is not
found in node cache. Write a callable with the following signature:
``(introspection_data,**)``
called when node is not found in cache, providing the processed data.
Should return a ``NodeInfo`` class instance.
Make your plugin a setuptools entry point under
``ironic_inspector.hooks.node_not_found`` namespace and enable it in the
configuration file (``processing.node_not_found_hook`` option).
* **ironic-inspector** allows more condition types to be added for
`Introspection Rules`_. Inherit ``RuleConditionPlugin`` class defined in
ironic_inspector.plugins.base_ module and overwrite at least the following
method:
``check(node_info,field,params,**)``
called to check that condition holds for a given field. Field value is
provided as ``field`` argument, ``params`` is a dictionary defined
at the time of condition creation. Returns boolean value.
The following methods and attributes may also be overridden:
``validate(params,**)``
called to validate parameters provided during condition creating.
Default implementation requires keys listed in ``REQUIRED_PARAMS`` (and
only them).
``REQUIRED_PARAMS``
contains set of required parameters used in the default implementation
of ``validate`` method, defaults to ``value`` parameter.
``ALLOW_NONE``
if it's set to ``True``, missing fields will be passed as ``None``
values instead of failing the condition. Defaults to ``False``.
Make your plugin a setuptools entry point under
``ironic_inspector.rules.conditions`` namespace.
* **ironic-inspector** allows more action types to be added for `Introspection
Rules`_. Inherit ``RuleActionPlugin`` class defined in
ironic_inspector.plugins.base_ module and overwrite at least the following
method:
``apply(node_info,params,**)``
called to apply the action.
The following methods and attributes may also be overridden:
``rollback(node_info,params,**)``
called to clean up when conditions were not met.
Default implementation does nothing.
``validate(params,**)``
called to validate parameters provided during actions creating.
Default implementation requires keys listed in ``REQUIRED_PARAMS`` (and
only them).
``REQUIRED_PARAMS``
contains set of required parameters used in the default implementation
of ``validate`` method, defaults to no parameters.
Make your plugin a setuptools entry point under
``ironic_inspector.rules.conditions`` namespace.
.. note::
``**`` argument is needed so that we can add optional arguments without
breaking out-of-tree plugins. Please make sure to include and ignore it.
