Writing recipes

Refer to these guidelines when creating your recipes.

When using recipes, consider the following guidelines:

• Cloudbreak supports running bash and python scripts as recipes. We recommend using scripts with Shebang character sequence, for example:

  #!/bin/sh
  #!/bin/bash
  #!/usr/bin/sh
  #!/usr/bin/bash
  #!/usr/bin/env sh
  #!/usr/bin/env bash
  #!/bin/sh -x
  #!/usr/bin/python
  #!/usr/bin/env python

• The scripts are executed as root. The recipe output is written to /var/log/recipes on each node on which it was executed.

• Supported parameters can be specified as variables by using mustache kind of templating with "{{{ }}}" syntax. Once specified in a recipe, these variables are dynamically replaced when the recipe is executed, generating the actual values that you provided to Cloudbreak as part of cluster creation process.

  For example, if your cluster includes an external LDAP and your recipe includes {{{ldap.connectionURL}}}, as demonstrated in the following example

  #!/bin/bash -e
  
  main() {
   ping {{{ ldap.connectionURL }}}
  }
  
  [[ "$0" == "$BASH_SOURCE" ]] && main "$@"

  then, when this recipe runs, the {{{ldap.connectionURL}}} is replaced with the actual connection URL specified as part of cluster creation process, as demonstrated in the following example:

  #!/bin/bash -e
  
  main() {
   ping 192.168.59.103
  }
  
  [[ "$0" == "$BASH_SOURCE" ]] && main "$@"

• Recipe logs can be found at /var/log/recipes/${RECIPE_TYPE}/${RECIPE_NAME}.log
• The scripts are executed on all nodes of the host groups that you select (such as “master”, “worker”, “compute”).
• In order to be executed, your script must be in a network location which is accessible from the Cloudbreak and cluster instances VPC.
• Make sure to follow Linux best practices when creating your scripts. For example, don’t forget to script “Yes” auto-answers where needed.
• Do not execute yum update –y as it may update other components on the instances (such as salt) – which can create unintended or unstable behavior.

print(sys.version_info)

}

    setupAtlasServer
}

[[ "$0" == "$BASH_SOURCE" ]] && main "$@"
