# Linux VM Contextualization
These are the source of the contextualization packages used by VM to be
configured with the information generated by OpenNebula. This add-on is
compatible with OpenNebula >= 4.6.
## Get packages

### Repository structure
All code is located under `src/` and structure follows the installation
directory structure. Files for different environments/targets are picked
by the tag, tags are part of the filename separated from the installation
name by 2 hashes (`##`). Tags are dot-separated.
Examples:
* `script` - non-tagged file for all targets
* `script##systemd` - file tagged with **systemd**
* `script##systemd.rpm` - file tagged with **systemd** and **rpm**
### Contextualization scripts
Contextualization scripts, which are executed on every boot and during
the reconfiguration, are located in `src/etc/one-context.d/`. Scripts are
divided into following 2 parts:
* local - pre-networking, prefixed with `loc-`
* post-networking, prefixed with `net-`
All other scripts, which are not prefixed with `loc-` or `net-`, are
executed as a first during the post-networking contextualization stage.
## Build own package
Package contains following parts:
* main control scripts (`/usr/sbin/one-context*`)
* contextualization scripts (`/etc/one-context.d/*`)
* init scripts to start the contextualization
* OneGate scripts (`/usr/bin/one-gate*`)
* udev rules to trigger reconfiguration on NIC hotplug
Other actions include:
* delete persistent cd and net rules from /etc/udev/rules.d
* delete network configuration files
### Requirements
* Ruby >= 1.8.7
* gem fpm >= 1.8.1
* dpkg utils for deb package creation
* rpm utils for rpm package creation
On Ubuntu/Debian you can install the package `rpm` and you will be able
to generate both rpm and deb packages.
### Steps
The script `generate.sh` is able to create both **deb** and **rpm** packages
and can be configured to include more files in the package or change some of
its parameters. Package type and content are configured by the env. variable
`TARGET`, the corresponding target must be defined in `target.sh`. Target
describes the package format, name, dependencies, and files. Files are
selected by the tags. Set of required tags is defined for the target
(in `targets.sh`), each file has a list of corresponding tags right in its
filename (divided by the regular name by 2 hashes `##`, dot-separated).
On start it creates a temporary directory and copies there:
* All files tagged with no, some (but only from TARGET set) or all tags.
* Any file or directory from the arguments.
The default parameters to create a package are as follows:
```
VERSION=1.0.1
RELEASE=1
MAINTAINER="OpenNebula Systems <support@opennebula.systems>"
LICENSE="Apache 2.0"
VENDOR="OpenNebula Systems"
DESCRIPTION="
This package prepares a VM image for OpenNebula:
* Disables udev net and cd persistent rules
* Deletes udev net and cd persistent rules
* Unconfigures the network
* Adds OpenNebula contextualization scripts to startup
To get support use the OpenNebula mailing list:
http://OpenNebula.org
"
URL=http://opennebula.org
```
A target contains following parameters, e.g. **el7** target:
```
NAME=one-context
RELSUFFIX=.el7
TYPE=rpm
TAGS="rpm systemd one"
DEPENDS="util-linux bind-utils cloud-utils-growpart ruby rubygem-json"
REPLACES="cloud-init"
POSTIN=postinstall.one
PREUN=preuninstall.one
```
You can change any parameter setting an environment variable with the same name.
For example, to generate an **el7 rpm** package with a different package name:
```
$ TARGET=el7 NAME=my-one-context ./generate.sh
```
You can also include new files. This is handy to include new scripts executed
to contextualize an image. For example, we can have a script that installs
a user ssh key. We will create the file hierarchy that will go inside
the package in a directory:
```
$ mkdir -p ssh/etc/one-context.d
$ cp <our-ssh-script> ssh/etc/one-context.d/loc-01-ssh-key
$ TARGET=el7 ./generate.sh ssh/etc
```
NOTE: The generator must be executed from the same directory it resides.
