Task Orchestration and Scheduling service for OpenStack cloud

Running Mistral API server

To run Mistral API server perform the following command in a shell:

tox -evenv – python mistral/cmd/launch.py –server api –config-file path_to_config*

Note that an example configuration file can be found in etc/mistral.conf.example.

tox -evenv – python mistral/cmd/launch.py –server engine –config-file path_to_config*

Running Mistral Task Executors

To run Mistral Task Executor instance perform the following command in a shell:

tox -evenv – python mistral/cmd/launch.py –server executor –config-file path_to_config

Note that at least one Engine instance and one Executor instance should be running so that workflow tasks are processed by Mistral.

Debugging

To debug using a local engine and executor without dependencies such as RabbitMQ, create etc/mistral.conf with the following settings:

[DEFAULT]
rpc_backend = fake

[pecan]
auth_enable = False

and run in pdb, PyDev or PyCharm:

mistral/cmd/launch.py --server all --config-file etc/mistral.conf --use-debugger
