javadeploy Cookbook

Build Status

This is a Chef cookbook to Deploy/Manage Java Projects Git Repositories.

This cookbook deploys a multi revisions service for Java Git Repositories
with ease of revision control management.

More features and attributes will be added over time, feel free to contribute
what you find missing!

Repository

Supported JDK Versions

There is no limitation on Java to use this cookbook.

Java is setup and managed by java cookbook.

TODO

  • Add git ssh wrapper capability to the cookbook

    Currently cookbook does not manage git ssh wrapper and LWRP resource
    attribute :ssh_key_wrapper_file must point to a wrapper file managed
    separately.
    
  • Add LWRP resource setup using node attribute node['javadeploy']['repositories'] from data bag

  • Add more init style

Cookbook Dependencies

  • ulimit cookbook
  • java cookbook

Cookbook Recipes

  • javadeploy::default - default cookbook, wrapper for cookbook recipes

  • javadeploy::java - recipe to setup java

  • javadeploy::user - recipe to setup user for java services

  • javadeploy::core - recipe to setup core cookbook resources

Cookbook LWRP

Cookbook default LWRP javadeploy can be used to setup multiple java git repositories.

Note: LWRP resource attribute :ssh_key_wrapper_file must point to git ssh wrapper script
file for git repository sync. Soon wrapper setup support will be added to the cookbook.

LWRP example

Create a java service using LWRP:

javadeploy 'GIT_REPOSITORY' do
  ssh_key_wrapper_file '/opt/javadeploy/ssh_key_wrapper/GIT_REPOSITORY_KEY.wrapper'
  repository_url 'git@github.com:GITHUB_USER/GIT_REPOSITORY.git'
  options ["-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false",
    "-Dlog4j.configuration=log4j.xml",
    "-Dlog4j.debug=info",
    "-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8",
    "-Xdebug"
  ]
  class_name 'java.className'
  class_path ["config/#{node.environment}",
    'package/lib/*',
    'package/resources',
    'package/*'
  ]
  console_log false
  current_revision 'CURRENT_REVISION'
  other_revisions ['OLD_REVISION_1', 'OLD_REVISION_2']
end

javadeploy 'GIT_REPOSITORY' do
  option value
  action :delete
end

Cookbook Repository Revision Types

For a repository, revision is categorized into two types:

  • current - current revision or default revision on which java service will be running, it can be configured using LWRP attribute current_revision or defining attribute current_revision for a repository in local json file on node / data bag hierarchy

  • other - other revision(s) or list of revisions which are meant to preserve on a node for roll back or other purposes, it can be configured using LWRP attribute other_revisions or defining attribute other_revisions for a repository in local json file on node / data bag hierarchy

Cookbook LWRP Revision Attributes & Precedence

Repository revisions can be managed in different ways using this cookbook.

LWRP Revision Attributes Precedence

  • :file_revision - from a local json file
  • :databag_revision - from data bag hierarchy of node fqdn, node cluster, node environment or default revision
  • :current_revision & :other_revisions - using LWRP resource attributes current_revision & other_revisions

Idea is to minimise the effort to change and manage
revision for multiple repositories in a simplest way possible.

LWRP Revision Attributes

:file_revision

To configure repository current & other revisions value from a local file, set LWRP
resource attribute :file_revision.

Default value for :file_revision resource attribute is node['javadeploy']['file_revision'].

If this file exist and contain revision attributes current_revision & other_revisions for the repository, current & other revisions value will be set from the :file_revision file.

Note: :file_revision gets first precedence to determine current & other revisions value and overrides :databag_revision and LWRP resource attributes current_revision & other_revision.

:databag_revision

To determine repository current & other revisions value from data bag, set attribute :databag_revision to true.

Default value for :databag_revision resource attribute is node['javadeploy']['databag_revision'].

There are two scenarios if :databag_revision resource attribute is set:

  1. If :file_revision resource attribute is defined and revision attribute value were found in :file_revision file, LWRP will NOT look up into data bag items hierarchy.

  2. If :file_revision resource attribute is defined and revision attributes were NOT found in :file_revision file, LWRP will look up into data bag items hierarchy.

  3. If :file_revision resource attribute is NOT defined, LWRP will simply lookup data bag hierarchy to determine revision attributes.

Note: :databag_revision gets second precedence to determine revisions value & overrides LWRP resource attributes current_revision & other_revision

:current_revision & :other_revisions

This is the simplest way to configure repository revisions.

LWRP will use resource attributes - :current_revision as current revision & :other_revisions as other revisions only in below scenarios:

  1. if resource attributes :file_revision & databag_revision are not set
  2. or resource attributes :file_revision & databag_revision are set but were unable to determine current/others revisions value

Note: current_revision & other_revision gets least precedence to determine revisions value.

Default value for resource attribute current_revision is set to node['javadeploy']['current_revision'].

Default value for resource attribute other_revisions is set to [].

Cookbook LWRP Revision using Resource Attributes

As mentioned earlier there are two types of revisions current and other.

Both can be configured with in LWRP using resource attributes - current_revision & other_revisions.

Resource attribute other_revisions is an Array resource to keep more than one older revisions, useful for roll back.

Managing repository revision with in LWRP resource is a best way if revision always refers to a branch.

Cookbook LWRP Revision from a JSON File

For each repository, current or other revisions value can be configured by a local JSON file.

Local JSON file location is common for all repositories and configurable by attribute node['javadeploy']['file_revision'].

Local JSON Revision File Format

{
  "repositories": {
    "repository1": {
      "current_revision": "rev03",
      "other_revisions": ["rev01", "rev02"]
    },
    "repository2": {
      "current_revision": "rev02",
      "other_revisions": ["rev01", "rev03"]
    },
    "repository3": {
      "current_revision": "rev03"
    },
    "backend": {
      "other_revisions": ["rev01","rev02"]
    }
  }
}

Note:

If attribute `node['javadeploy']['file_revision']` is not configured,
LWRP will not lookup local file for revisions value.

If a repository or repository revision attributes are not present in the file,
LWRP will try to look up revisions in next configured precedence.

Managing repository revisions from a local json file could be a problem especially running in cloud infrastructure where node replacement or rebuild requires its preservation.

But, it is a quick solution to verify the revision without making any change in cookbook or data bag.

Cookbook LWRP Revision from Data Bag Hierarchy

Managing repository revisions using data bag is a better way if revisions are keep changing very frequently and revisions vary among nodes, clusters and environments.

Enable Data Bag Revisions for One or All Repositories

To configure a repository revisions using data bag, simply set LWRP resource attribute :databag_revision, default value is configured by attribute node['javadeploy']['databag_revision'].

By setting attribute node['javadeploy']['databag_revision'] to true, all repositories or LWRP resources will look up data bag for revisions depending upon the precedence.

Data Bag Name

Cookbook data bag name is configurable by attribute node['javadeploy']['databag'].

Data Bag Items

There are total four data bag items used by LWRP to maintain repository revisions hierarchy:

  • revision_fqdn
  • revision_flock
  • revision_environment
  • revision_default

    Hierarchy does not mean that LWRP performs any kind of attributes merge
    on different data bag items.
    It means if a value is found in a data bag item for repository
    'current_revision' or 'other_revisions', next data bag items will
    not be checked and will simply ignored.
    
    e.g. a repository revision is configured in data bag item `revision_fqdn`
    which means all other data bag items will be ignored.
    If no revision is found in `revision_fqdn` data bag item, LWRP will check
    `revision_flock` and so on in the hierarchy.
    

Create Data Bag & Items

Create Data bag:

knife data bag create DATA_BAG_NAME

Create below Data Bag Items and copy content from sample mentioned in next section:

knife data bag create DATA_BAG_NAME revision_fqdn
knife data bag create DATA_BAG_NAME revision_flock
knife data bag create DATA_BAG_NAME revision_environment
knife data bag create DATA_BAG_NAME revision_default

Or Create below Data Bag Items json file from next section samples and upload to Data Bag:

knife data bag from file DATA_BAG_NAME revision_fqdn.json
knife data bag from file DATA_BAG_NAME revision_flock.json
knife data bag from file DATA_BAG_NAME revision_environment.json
knife data bag from file DATA_BAG_NAME revision_default.json

Setup SSH Key Wrapper

Create SSH Wrapper File

Create a ssh key wrapper file, e.g. /opt/javadeploy/gitkey.key.wrapper with below content:

#!/bin/bash

/usr/bin/env ssh -o "StrictHostKeyChecking=no" -i "<%= /opt/javadeploy/gitkey.key -%>" $@

Create SSH Private Key File

e.g. /opt/javadeploy/gitkey.key

Add SSH Private Key Content to file /opt/javadeploy/gitkey.key.

Create Java Repository Resource

Add below resource to your cookbook recipe:

javadeploy 'GIT_REPOSITORY' do
  ssh_key_wrapper_file '/opt/javadeploy/gitkey.key.wrapper'
  repository_url 'git@github.com:GITHUB_USER/GIT_REPOSITORY.git'
  options ["-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false",
    "-Dlog4j.configuration=log4j.xml",
    "-Dlog4j.debug=info",
    "-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8",
    "-Xdebug"
  ]
  class_name 'java.className'
  class_path ["config/#{node.environment}",
    'package/lib/*',
    'package/resources',
    'package/*'
  ]
  console_log false
  current_revision 'CURRENT_REVISION'
  other_revisions ['OLD_REVISION_1', 'OLD_REVISION_2']
end
