Garm External Provider For OpenStack

The OpenStack external provider allows garm to create Linux and Windows runners on top of OpenStack virtual machines.

Build

Clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/cloudbase/garm-provider-openstack

Build the binary:

cd garm-provider-openstack
go build .

Copy the binary on the same system where garm is running, and point to it in the config.

Configure

The config file for this external provider is a simple toml used to configure the credentials needed to connect to your OpenStack cloud and some additional information about your environment.

A sample config file can be found in the testdata folder.

Tweaking the provider

Garm supports sending opaque json encoded configs to the IaaS providers it hooks into. This allows the providers to implement some very provider specific functionality that doesn't necessarily translate well to other providers. Features that may exists on Azure, may not exist on AWS or OpenStack and vice versa.

To this end, this provider supports the following extra specs schema:

}

NOTE: The extra_context spec adds a map of key/value pairs that may be expected in the runner_install_template. The runner_install_template allows us to completely override the script that installs and starts the runner. In the example above, I have added a copy of the current template from garm-provider-common, with the adition of:

{{- if .ExtraContext.GolangDownloadURL }}
curl -LO {{ .ExtraContext.GolangDownloadURL }}
rm -rf /usr/local/go && sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.22.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
{{- end }}

NOTE: runner_install_template is a golang template, which is used to install the runner. An example on how you can extend the currently existing template with a function that downloads, extracts and installs Go on the runner is provided above.

To set it on an existing pool, simply run:

garm-cli pool update --extra-specs='{"network_id": "542b68dd-4b3d-459d-8531-34d5e779d4d6"}' <POOL_ID>

You can also set a spec when creating a new pool, using the same flag.

Workers in that pool will be created taking into account the specs you set on the pool.
