+1 for splitting the manifests.

 

It gives STX-Openstack the freedom to upversion and maintain its packages without affecting the platform side.

Subject: [Starlingx-discuss] Manifest decoupling: StarlingX and stx-openstack application

 

Greetings to the community!

I would like to bring to this mailing list a discussion we are having about splitting the stx-openstack application repositories from the main starlingx manifest into a new one.

 

In order to decouple the OpenStack Clients currently shared between platform and application we are suggesting to decouple the platform and application builds in separate manifests (e.g. starlingx/manifest/default.xml and starlingx/manifest/stx-openstack.xml).

I understand that the new manifest needs to be created and build jobs configured properly and tested, I can also create the Stories for mapping this work later.

 

BENEFITS: we achieve the freedom of building different versions of the same packages (i.e. openstack clients) that are shared between the platform and the application.

The end goal would be something like:

 

Remain as is   (default manifest aligns to upstream Debian version => Victoria)

============

stx/upstream  openstack/barbican

stx/upstream  openstack/keystone

stx/upstream  openstack/python-barbicanclient

stx/upstream  openstack/python-keystoneclient

stx/upstream  openstack/python-horizon

stx/upstream  openstack/python-openstackclient

Only keep the services needed by the platform. Some existing patches might have been brought forward to support stx-openstack, so we should re-evaluate as part of this.

Those would still be built as part of STX Platform builds, i.e. starlingx/manifest/default.xml

Manifest should not include stx/openstack-armada-app repo anymore.

 

Relocate (stx-openstack app independently aligns to version of choice: Victoria [current] => Antelope [future])

====================

stx/upstream  openstack/barbican               copy-to stx/openstack-armada-app/upstream/openstack/barbican

stx/upstream  openstack/keystone               copy-to stx/openstack-armada-app/upstream/openstack/keystone

stx/upstream  openstack/python-neutronclient   move-to stx/openstack-armada-app/upstream/openstack/python-neutronclient

stx/upstream  openstack/python-oslo-messaging  move-to stx/openstack-armada-app/upstream/openstack/python-oslo-messaging

stx/upstream  openstack/python-pankoclient     move-to stx/openstack-armada-app/upstream/openstack/python-pankoclient

stx/upstream  openstack/python-wsme            move-to stx/openstack-armada-app/upstream/openstack/python-wsme

stx/upstream  openstack/rabbitmq-server        move-to stx/openstack-armada-app/upstream/openstack/rabbitmq-server

 

The OpenStack Distro Team will create a new directory under stx/openstack-armada-app to store all application needed packages.

This will include clients and the stx-openstack Docker images we build only for the application. This way, on stx-openstack build we can build the same packages (name) but using different versions/source code. Manifest does not include upstream repo.


------------------------

We have discussed it between a small group of people so I would like to bring it to the attention of everyone and let the community speak in case there are any concerns against it and/or to support this change proposal. This work will be done in a couple of phases, progressively moving towards achieving the end goal explained here.

Looking forward for hearing back from you : )
