Description

Provides a simplified API for creating and destroying CBSD virtual environments.

Errata

By default, all actions are permitted for all requests. Through the -allowlist <whitelist_file> parameter you can limit the number of permissible public keys/CID. Format of <whitelist_file> similar to authotized_keys: one key per line, e.g:

ssh-ed25519 AAAA...xxx your_name@@your.domain
ssh-ed25519 AAAA...yyy user2@@example.com

Installation

Assuming you have a stock vanilla FreeBSD 13.0+ installation. The directives below configure a standalone installation ( single API + hoster env), however you can use any number of physical nodes for single API.

1. Install packages:

pkg install -y cbsd cbsd-mq-router cbsd-mq-api beanstalkd git

2. Configure beanstalkd, the broker service.

Since all services are on the same server, we will specify the address 127.0.0.1 for incoming connections and start the service:

sysrc beanstalkd_flags="-l 127.0.0.1 -p 11300"
service beanstalkd enable
service beanstalkd restart

3. Configure CBSD as usual:

env workdir=/usr/jails /usr/local/cbsd/sudoexec/initenv

4. Configure MQ router

First, get hoster FQDN via hostname command. Let's say your host has a name: apitest.my.domain

Open /usr/local/etc/cbsd-mq-router.json in any favorite editor and set "tube" and "reply_tube_prefix" params ( cbsd_<hostname_without_dot> and cbsd_<hostname_without_dot>_result_id ), e.g:

{
    "cbsdenv": "/usr/jails",
    "cbsdcolor": false,
    "broker": "beanstalkd",
    "logfile": "/dev/stdout",
    "recomendation": "/usr/local/cbsd/modules/api.d/misc/recomendation.sh",
    "freejname": "/usr/local/cbsd/modules/api.d/misc/freejname.sh",
    "server_url": "https://127.0.0.1",
    "cloud_images_list": "/usr/local/etc/cbsd_api_cloud_images.json",
    "iso_images_list": "/usr/local/etc/cbsd_api_iso_images.json",
    "beanstalkd": {
      "uri": "127.0.0.1:11300",
      "tube": "cbsd_zpool1",
      "reply_tube_prefix": "cbsd_zpool1_result_id",
      "reconnect_timeout": 5,
      "reserve_timeout": 5,
      "publish_timeout": 5,
      "logdir": "/var/log/cbsdmq"
    }
}

cloud_images_list - The path to the json file, which is displayed upon /images query - list of avaliable images. See etc/cbsd_api_cloud_images.json as sample.

5. Start MQ router:

service cbsd-mq-router enable
service cbsd-mq-router start

6. Install CBSD API module:

cbsd module mode=install api
echo 'api.d' >> ~cbsd/etc/modules.conf
cbsd initenv

7. Configure CBSD API module.

Copy configuration sample to work dir:

cp -a /usr/local/cbsd/modules/api.d/etc/api.conf ~cbsd/etc/
cp -a /usr/local/cbsd/modules/api.d/etc/bhyve-api.conf ~cbsd/etc/
cp -a /usr/local/cbsd/modules/api.d/etc/jail-api.conf ~cbsd/etc/

Open ~cbsd/etc/api.conf in any favorite editor and set "server_list=" to server FQDN, e.g:

...
server_list="apitest.my.domain"
...

Set 'cbsd' user permission for ~cbsd/etc/api.conf file:

chown cbsd:cbsd ~cbsd/etc/api.conf

Here you can check that the API module scripts works:

su -m cbsd -c '/usr/local/cbsd/modules/api.d/misc/recomendation.sh'

must return the host from server_list ( apitest.my.domain )

su -m cbsd -c '/usr/local/cbsd/modules/api.d/misc/freejname.sh'

must return the unique name 'envX'.

8. Configure RestAPI daemon:

mkdir -p /var/db/cbsd-api /usr/jails/var/db/api/map
chown -R cbsd:cbsd /var/db/cbsd-api /usr/jails/var/db/api/map
service cbsd-mq-api enable
service cbsd-mq-api start

Usage

Valid endpoints:

curl -H "cid:<cid>" http://127.0.0.1:65531/api/v1/cluster
curl -H "cid:<cid>" http://127.0.0.1:65531/api/v1/status/<env>
curl -H "cid:<cid>" http://127.0.0.1:65531/api/v1/start/<env>
curl -H "cid:<cid>" http://127.0.0.1:65531/api/v1/stop/<env>
curl -H "cid:<cid>" http://127.0.0.1:65531/api/v1/destroy/<env>

Where <cid> is your token/namespace. For convenience, in a private cluster, we suggest using md5 hash of your public key as . To test, lets create simple CBSDfile, where CLOUD_KEY - is your publickey string:

CLOUD_URL="http://127.0.0.1:65531"
CLOUD_KEY="ssh-ed25519 AAAA..XXX your@localhost"

jail_minio1()
{
	imgsize="10g"
	pkg_bootstrap=0
}

Run:

sudo cbsd up

After jail start you can use:

cbsd login
cbsd status
cbsd destroy
