Role Variables

.. list-table:: Variables used for modify image :widths: auto :header-rows: 1

• • Name
  • Default Value
  • Description
• • source_image
  • [undefined]
  • Mandatory fully qualified reference to the source image to be modified. The supplied Dockerfile will be copied and modified to make the FROM directive match this variable.
• • modify_dir_path
  • [undefined]
  • Mandatory path to the directory containing the Dockerfile to modify the image
• • modified_append_tag
  • date +-modified-%Y%m%d%H%M%S
  • String to be appended after the tag to indicate this is a modified version of the source image.
• • target_image
  • [undefined]
  • If set, the modified image will be tagged with target_image + modified_append_tag. If target_image is not set, the modified image will be tagged with source_image + modified_append_tag. If the purpose of the image is not changing, it may be enough to rely on the source_image + modified_append_tag tag to identify that this is a modified version of the source image.
• • container_build_tool
  • docker
  • Tool used to build containers, can be 'docker' or 'buildah'

Example Playbooks

Modify Image

The following playbook will produce a modified image with the tag
`:latest-modified-<timestamp>` based on the Dockerfile in the custom directory
`/path/to/example_modify_dir`.

.. code-block::

    - hosts: localhost
      tasks:
      - name: include tripleo-modify-image
        import_role:
          name: tripleo-modify-image
          tasks_from: modify_image.yml
        vars:
          source_image: docker.io/tripleomaster/centos-binary-nova-api:latest
          modify_dir_path: /path/to/example_modify_dir
          container_build_tool: docker # or buildah

The directory `example_modify_dir` contains the `Dockerfile` which will perform
the modification, for example:

.. code-block::

    # This will be replaced in the file Dockerfile.modified
    FROM centos-binary-nova-api

    # switch to root to install packages
    USER root

    # install packages
    RUN curl "https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py" -o "/tmp/get-pip.py"
    RUN python /tmp/get-pip.py

    # switch the container back to the default user
    USER nova

Yum update
~~~~~~~~~~

The following playbook will produce a modified image with the tag
`:latest-updated` which will do a yum update using the host's /etc/yum.repos.d.
The yum update will only occur if there are differences between host and image
package versions. In this playbook the tasks\_from is set as a variable instead
of an `import_role` parameter.

.. code-block::

    - hosts: localhost
      tasks:
      - name: include tripleo-modify-image
        import_role:
          name: tripleo-modify-image
        vars:
          tasks_from: yum_update.yml
          source_image: docker.io/tripleomaster/centos-binary-nova-api:latest
          compare_host_packages: true
          yum_repos_dir_path: /etc/yum.repos.d
          modified_append_tag: updated
          container_build_tool: docker # or buildah

RPM install
~~~~~~~~~~~

The following playbook will produce a modified image with RPMs from the
specified rpms\_path on the local filesystem installed as a new layer
for the container. The new container tag is appened with the '-hotfix'
suffix. Useful for creating adhoc hotfix containers with local RPMs with no
network connectivity.

.. code-block::

    - hosts: localhost
      tasks:
      - name: include tripleo-modify-image
        import_role:
          name: tripleo-modify-image
        vars:
          tasks_from: rpm_install.yml
          source_image: docker.io/tripleomaster/centos-binary-nova-api:latest
          rpms_path: /foo/bar
          modified_append_tag: -hotfix

Dev install
~~~~~~~~~~~

The following playbook will produce a modified image with Python source
code installed via pip. To minimize dependencies within the container
we generate the sdist locally and then copy it into the resulting
container image as an sdist tarball to run pip install locally.

It can be used to pull a review from OpenDev Gerrit:

.. code-block::

    - hosts: localhost
      connection: local
      tasks:
      - name: dev install heat-api
        import_role:
          name: tripleo-modify-image
        vars:
          tasks_from: dev_install.yml
          source_image: docker.io/tripleomaster/centos-binary-heat-api:current-tripleo
          refspecs:
            -
              project: heat
              refspec: refs/changes/12/1234/3
          modified_append_tag: -devel

or it can be used to build an image from a local Python directory:

.. code-block::

    - hosts: localhost
      connection: local
      tasks:
      - name: dev install heat-api
        import_role:
          name: tripleo-modify-image
        vars:
          tasks_from: dev_install.yml
          source_image: docker.io/tripleomaster/centos-binary-heat-api:current-tripleo
          modified_append_tag: -devel
          python_dir:
            - /home/joe/git/openstack/heat
