⁠Cloud Services Availability

Query clouds services, save their availability data and provide aggregated information via RESTful API

⁠Configuration

Default location of configuration file is /etc/oss/availability/config.json.

If there is an environment variable AVAILABILITY_CONF set, it is used as priority. In this case it is important to use absolute path to configuration file.

Example:

.. code-block::

export AVAILABILITY_CONF=/home/username/oss_configs/availability.json
python availability/main.py

⁠Configuration File Description

Configuration file is plain JSON document which defines Flask <http://flask.pocoo.org>_, connection to data storage and services quering configuration:

Here is a simple example:

Build Docker Image

To build the image run the following command:

.. code-block:: sh

docker build -t availability:latest .

Run Docker Containers

Edit configuration file in-place in the repository:

.. code-block:: sh

    cd ~/availability/
    cp etc/sample_config.json etc/config.json
    vim etc/config.json

Then run two separate containers with applications:

    docker run -d --name avail-watcher -v $PWD/etc:/etc/availability availability availability-watcher
    docker run -d --name avail-api -v $PWD/etc:/etc/availability -p 5010:5000 availability ./entrypoint-api.sh

Or one all-in-one:

    docker run -d --name avail -v $PWD/etc:/etc/availability -p 5010:5000 availability ./entrypoint-all.sh
