Configuration

The configuration details of the storage provider are specified on ~/.pharmer/config.d/default file. Default storage provider is local.

context: default
kind: PharmerConfig
store:
  local:
    path: /home/sanjid/.pharmer/store.d

Here store type is local, so in path a local directory is used to locate where the cluster and credential resources will be stored.

You can also use Amazon’s s3, gcs to use google cloud storage, azure or swift for storage purpose.

You can use following command to crate a storage provider confiuration.

# AWS S3:
pharmer config set-context --provider=s3 --s3.access_key_id=<key_id> --s3.secret_key=<secret_key> --s3.endpoint=<endpoint> --s3.bucket=<bucket_name> --prefix=<prefix>

# GCS:
pharmer config set-context --provider=google --google.json_key_path=<path_sa_file> --google.project_id=<my_project> --google.bucket=<bucket_name> --prefix=<prefix>

# Microsoft Azure ARM Storage:
pharmer config set-context --provider=azure --azure.account=<storage_ac> --azure.key=<key> --azure.container=<container_name> --prefix=<prefix>

# Local Storage:
pharmer config set-context --provider=local --local.path=<local_path>

# Swift:
pharmer config set-context --provider=swift --swift.key=<key> --swift.tenant_auth_url=<tenant_auth_url> --swift.tenant_name=<tenant_name> --swift.username=<username>
--swift.domain=<domain> --swift.region=<region> --swift.tenant_id=<tenant_id> --swift.tenant_domain=<tenant_domain> --swift.storage_url=<storage_url>
--swift.auth_token=<auth_token> --swift.container=<container_name> --prefix=<prefix>

If you using s3, the configuration file contains following field

  s3:
    endpoint: <aws endpoint>
    bucket: <bucket name>
    prefix: <storage prefix>

For gcs

context: default
kind: PharmerConfig
credentials:
- metadata:
    creationTimestamp: 2018-01-01T09:01:19Z
    name: gce
  spec:
    data:
      projectID: <project-id>
      serviceAccount: |-
        {
          "type": "service_account",
          "project_id": <project-id>,
          "private_key_id": "private key id",
          "private_key": "private key",
          "client_email": "email",
          "client_id": "client id",
          "auth_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
          "token_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token",
          "auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
          "client_x509_cert_url": "url"
        }
    provider: GoogleCloud
store:
  credentialName: gce
  gcs:
    bucket: pharmer

Storage structure

The directory tree of the local storage provider will be look like:

~/.pharmer/
      |--config.d/
      |      |
      |      |__ default
      |
      |__ store.d/
             |
             |-- clusters/
             |
             |__ credentials/

Here, - config.d/default: is the storage configuration file - store.d/cluster: stores cluster resources. There is a file with <cluster-name>.json, a nodegroup directory which contains nodegroup files, a pki directory having cluster certificates and an ssh directory which stores public and private ssh key for the cluster. - store.d/credentials: stores credential resources

You can view the config using

$ pharmer config view

pharmer config view
context: default
kind: PharmerConfig
store:
  local:
    path: /home/sanjid/.pharmer/store.d

To list all available contexts run:

$ pharmer config get-contexts
NAME	Store
default	Local
