#Cinder Docker Driver

Docker Volume Plugin to enable consumption of OpenStack-Cinder Block Storage with containers.

##Install

Build From Source

git clone https://github.com/j-griffith/cinder-docker-driver
cd cinder-docker-driver
go build
sudo ./install.sh

###Just the bits Use curl to download and run the install script in the package Github repo::

curl -sSl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/j-griffith/cinder-docker-driver/master/install.sh | sh

##Configuration options Example config.json file:

{
  Endpoint: "http://172.16.140.145:5000/v2.0",
  Username: "Fred",
  Password: "FredsPassWord",
  TenantID: "979ddb6183834b9993954ca6de518c5a"
}

###Minimal/Required Config Configuration options are stored in json format in config.json, the minimum required options provide just enough info to connect to our Cinder API and execute commands. Note that for quick demos and just trying things out you can use the default interface and network for your iSCSI connections, it's highly recommended however you don't do this if you want to do anything that might require some performance.

• Endpoint
• Username
• Password
• TenantID

###Additonal/Optional Config

• DefaultVolSz (1 GiB)
• MountPoint (/var/lib/cinder/mount)
• InitiatorIFace (default)
• HostUUID (root disk UUID)
• InitiatorIP (default interface IP)

Example config with additional options:

{
  Endpoint: "http://172.16.140.145:5000/v2.0",
  Username: "Fred",
  Password: "FredsPassWord",
  TenantID: "979ddb6183834b9993954ca6de518c5a",
  DefaultVolSz: 1,
  MountPoint: "/mnt/cvols",
  InitiatorIFace: "/dev/eth4",
  HostUUID: "219b0670-a214-4281-8424-5bb3be109ddd",
  InitiatorIP: "192.168.4.201"
}

##Start the daemon If you want to just launch the driver daemon as root (or sudo):

sudo cinder-docker-driver  >> /var/log/cdd.out 2>&1 &'
sudo service docker restart

##Using systemd The install script includes creation of a systemd service file. If you used the install script you can just add your config file and use service cinder-docker-driver start.

Otherwise, you can inspect the install.sh script and create/setup your own systemd service file.

##Try it out Assuming your credentials were all set correctly and the driver was able to start up without any issues, you should be ready to go.

To get a list of commands offered via the Docker Volume API:

$ docker volume --help

Usage: 	docker volume COMMAND

Manage Docker volumes

Options:
      --help   Print usage

Commands:
  create      Create a volume
  inspect     Display detailed information on one or more volumes
  ls          List volumes
  rm          Remove a volume

Run 'docker volume COMMAND --help' for more information on a command.

To create a volume and specify some options like size and Cinder Type:

$ docker volume create -d cinder --name fredsFirstDVol -o size=10 -o type=lvm-1

You can also just add the volume arguments to your docker run command and Docker will make the create calls for you. Keep in mind that if the volume already exists we'll just grab it and try to attach it, if it doesn't, the Docker service will issue a request to the driver to create it.

##What's next Put the whole thing in a container, and just run it from there. Almost there, just trying to figure out some details on how to use iscsid in a container and have it effect the host.
