Introduction

============



This is the code repository for **FIWARE Policy Manager GE - Cloto**, a server

that provides a REST API to create rules associated to servers, subscribe

servers to Context Broker to get information about resources consumption of

those servers and launch actions described in rules when conditions are met.



This project is part of FIWARE_.

GEi overall description

=======================



Bosun GEri is the reference implementation of Policy Manager GE.



Bosun offers decision-making ability, independently of the type of resource

(physical/virtual resources, network, service, etc.) being able to solve

complex problems within the Cloud field by reasoning about the knowledge

base, represented by facts and rules. Bosun GEri provides the basic management

of cloud resources based on rules, as well as management of the corresponding

resources within FIWARE Cloud instances based on infrastructure physical

monitoring, resources and services security monitoring or whatever that

could be defined by facts, actions and rules.



The baseline for the Bosun GEri is PyCLIPS, which is a module to interact with

CLIPS expert system implemented in Python language. The reason to take PyCLIPS

is to extend the OpenStack ecosystem with an expert system, written in the same

language as the rest of the OpenStack services. Besides, It provides

notification service to your own HTTP server where you can define your

own actions based on the notifications launched by Policy Manager.

Last but not least, Bosun is integrated with the Monitoring GEri in order

to recover the information of the (virtual) system and calculate any possible

change on it based on the knowledge database defined for it.

Components

----------



Fiware-Cloto

    Fiware-Cloto is part of FIWARE Policy Manager. It provides a REST API to

    create rules associated to servers, subscribe servers to Context Broker to

    get information about resources consumption of that servers and launch

    actions described in rules when conditions are met.



Fiware-Facts

    Server to process the incoming facts from `Orion Context Broker`_ and

    publish the result into a RabbitMQ queue to be analysed by Fiware-Cloto.

    The facts are the result of the server resources consumption.



For more information, please refer to the `documentation `_.

Installation

------------



Once pre-installation requirements are satisfied, please install fiware-cloto

package from PyPI repository:



.. code::



    $ sudo pip install fiware-cloto



Running

=======



To run fiware-cloto, just execute:



.. code::



    $ gunicorn fiware_cloto.cloto.wsgi -b BIND_ADDRESS



To stop fiware-cloto, you can stop gunicorn server, or kill it



NOTE: to enable writing gunicorn log messages to console, please add the option

``--log-file=-``; otherwise, if you prefer to write them into a file, just add

``--log-file=``. By default, logs will be written in the folder

``/var/log/fiware-cloto/``: please ensure its permissions and owner are valid.



Running with supervisor

-----------------------



Optionally you can add a new layer to manage gunicorn process with a supervisor.

Just install supervisor on your system:



.. code::



    centos$ sudo yum install supervisor

    ubuntu$ sudo apt-get install supervisor



Copy the file `utils/cloto_start `_ to ``/etc/fiware.d`` and

ensure it has execution permissions:



.. code::



    $ sudo chmod a+x /etc/fiware.d/cloto_start



Then copy the file `utils/fiware-cloto.conf `_ to

``/etc/supervisor/conf.d`` and start fiware-cloto using supervisor:



.. code::



    $ sudo supervisorctl reread

    $ sudo supervisorctl update

    $ sudo supervisorctl start fiware-cloto



To stop fiware-cloto just execute:



.. code::



    $ sudo supervisorctl stop fiware-cloto



NOTE: Supervisor provides an "event listener" to subscribe to the so-called

"event notifications". The purpose of the event notification/subscription

system is to provide a mechanism for arbitrary code to be run (e.g. send an

email, make an HTTP request, etc) when some condition is satisfied. That

condition usually has to do with subprocess state. For instance, you may

want to notify someone via email when a process crashes and is restarted

by Supervisor. For more information check also the `Supervisor Documentation`_.

API Overview

============



To create a new rule for a server, user should send the rule as body of a POST

request to the Cloto server, with the condition and action that should be

performed.



For example, this operation allows to create a specific rule associate to a

server:



.. code::



    $ curl -v -H 'X-Auth-Token: 86e096cd4de5490296fd647e21b7f0b4' -X POST

    http://130.206.81.71:8000/v1.0/6571e3422ad84f7d828ce2f30373b3d4/servers

    /32c23ac4-230d-42b6-81f2-db9bd7e5b790/rules/

    -d '{"action": {"actionName": "notify-scale", "operation": "scaleUp"},

    "name": "ScaleUpRule", "condition": { "cpu": { "value": 98, "operand": "greater" },

    "mem": { "value": 95, "operand": "greater equal"}}}'



The result of this operation is a JSON with the Id of the server affected and

the ruleId of the created rule:



::



    {

        "serverId": "32c23ac4-230d-42b6-81f2-db9bd7e5b790",

        "ruleId": "68edb416-bfc6-11e3-a8b9-fa163e202949"

    }



Then user could perform a subscription to that rule with a new operation.



Please have a look at the `API Reference Documentation`_ section below and

at the `user and programmer guide `_ for more description

of the possibilities and operations.



Note: Please keep in mind that the server (whose serverId in the previous example is

32c23ac4-230d-42b6-81f2-db9bd7e5b790 and tenantID is 6571e3422ad84f7d828ce2f30373b3d4)

has to be created in FIWARE Lab. Policy Manager does not take care about this instance

creation.

Testing

=======



Unit tests

----------



Download source code from github



.. code::



    $ git clone https://github.com/telefonicaid/fiware-cloto.git



To execute the unit tests, you must set the environment variable pointing to the

settings_test file. Then you can use coverage to execute the tests and obtain

the percentage of lines coveved by the tests. You must execute the tests from

project folder ``fiware-cloto``. Once you were inside the right location,

execute the required commands:



.. code::



    $ export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=fiware_cloto.cloto_settings.settings_tests

    $ export CLOTO_SETTINGS_FILE=$PWD/fiware_cloto/cloto_settings/fiware-cloto.cfg

    $ python fiware_cloto/manage.py test



Top_.



End-to-end tests

----------------



There are two ways to check that fiware-cloto is up and running:



The first one does not need authentication and you will get the server details:



.. code::



    $ curl -v -H 'X-Auth-Token: $AUTH_TOKEN' http://$HOST:8000/v1.0/$TENANT_ID/



Response should be similar to:



::



    {

        "owner": "Telefonica I+D",

        "doc": "http://docs.policymanager.apiary.io",

        "runningfrom": "16/02/03 16:16:27",

        "version": "2.3.0"

    }



The second one need authentication. You can execute a GET request similar to:



.. code::



    $ curl -v -H 'X-Auth-Token: $AUTH_TOKEN' http://$HOST:8000/v1.0/$TENANT_ID/



Where:



- **$AUTH_TOKEN**: is a valid token owned by the user. You can request this

  token from keystone.

- **$HOST**: is the url/IP of the machine where fiware facts is installed,

  for example: (policymanager-host.org, 127.0.0.1, etc)

- **$TENANT_ID**: is a tenantId of the user, for example:

  6571e3422ad84f7d828ce2f30373b3d4



The response should be similar to:



::



    {

        "owner": "Telefonica I+D",

        "doc": "http://docs.policymanager.apiary.io",

        "runningfrom": "16/02/03 16:16:27",

        "version": "2.3.0"

        "windowsize": 10

    }



Please refer to the `Installation and administration guide `_

for details.
