.. vim: syntax=rst .. _roc-developer-guide: ROC Development =============== This document assumes familiarity with Kubernetes and Helm, and that a Kubernetes/Helm development environment has already been deployed in the developer’s work environment (for example, using a mechanism like KinD or kubeadm). .. note:: By default, ROC is deployed without security enabled, with no Authentication or Authorization. To secure ROC so that the Authentication and Authorization can be tested, follow the Securing ROC section below :ref:`securing_roc`. Installing Prerequisites ------------------------ Atomix and onos-operator must be installed:: # create necessary namespaces kubectl create namespace aether # add repos helm repo add atomix https://charts.atomix.io helm repo add onosproject https://charts.onosproject.org helm repo update # install atomix export ATOMIX_VERSION=1.1.2 helm -n kube-system install atomix atomix/atomix --version $ATOMIX_VERSION # install the onos operator ONOS_OPERATOR_VERSION=0.5.6 helm install -n kube-system onos-operator onosproject/onos-operator --version $ONOS_OPERATOR_VERSION .. note:: ROC is sensitive to the versions of Atomix and onos-operator installed. The values shown above are correct for the 2.1.36- versions of the *aether-roc-umbrella*. .. list-table:: ROC support component version matrix :widths: 40 20 20 20 20 20 :header-rows: 1 * - ROC Version - atomix/atomix-controller - atomix/atomix-raft - atomix/atomix-runtime - atomix/atomix - onosproject/onos-operator * - 1.2.25-1.2.45 - 0.6.7 - 0.1.8 - n/a - n/a - 0.4.8 * - 1.3.0-1.3.10 - 0.6.8 - 0.1.9 - n/a - n/a - 0.4.10 * - 1.3.11-,1.4.0- - 0.6.8 - 0.1.14 - n/a - n/a - 0.4.12 * - 1.4.42- - 0.6.8 - 0.1.15 - n/a - n/a - 0.4.14 * - 2.0.29- - 0.6.8 - 0.1.16 - n/a - n/a - 0.5.1 * - 2.1.8- - 0.6.9 - 0.1.26 - n/a - n/a - 0.5.3 * - 2.1.32-2.1.35 - n/a - n/a - 0.1.8 - n/a - 0.5.6 * - 2.1.36- - n/a - n/a - n/a - 1.1.2 - 0.5.6 .. note:: Changing between atomix and operators in a cluster may cause problems if there are changes in the definition of the CRDs that they include. To fully ensure a clean installation the CRDs should be deleted manually AFTER deleting the old version of atomix or ONOS Operator. Use `kubectl get crds | grep atomix` and `kubectl get crds | grep onos` to see the CRDs present. Verify that these services were installed properly. You should see pods for *atomix-controller(s)* *onos-operator-app*, and *onos-operator-topo*. Execute these commands:: helm -n kube-system list kubectl -n kube-system get pods | grep -i atomix kubectl -n kube-system get pods | grep -i onos Installing the ``aether-roc-umbrella`` Helm chart ------------------------------------------------- Add the necessary helm repositories:: helm repo add aether https://charts.aetherproject.org ``aether-roc-umbrella`` will bring up the ROC and its services:: helm -n aether install aether-roc-umbrella aether/aether-roc-umbrella kubectl wait pod -n aether --for=condition=Ready -l type=config --timeout=300s .. _posting-the-mega-patch: Posting the Mega-Patch ---------------------- The ROC usually comes up in a blank state; there are no Enterprises, UEs, or other artifacts present in it. The Mega-Patch is an example patch that populates the ROC with some sample enterprises, UEs, slices, etc. Execute the following:: # launch a port-forward for the API # this will continue to run in the background kubectl -n aether port-forward service/aether-roc-api --address 0.0.0.0 8181:8181 & curl http://localhost:8181/targets # It should show a list of the configure enterprises: [{"name":"defaultent"},{"name":"acme"},{"name":"starbucks"} git clone https://github.com/onosproject/aether-roc-api.git # execute the mega-patch (it will post via CURL to localhost:8181) bash ~/path/to/aether-roc-api/examples/MEGA_Patch_20.curl .. note:: No port-forwarding is necessary to configure Aether OnRamp. Use URL *http://:31194/aether-roc-api/*. You may wish to customize the mega patch. For example, by default the patch configures the ``sdcore-adapter`` to push to ``sdcore-test-dummy``. You could instead configure it to push to a live instantiation of Aether by doing something like this:: sed -i 's^http://aether-roc-umbrella-sdcore-test-dummy/v1/config/5g^http://webui.omec.svc.cluster.local:9089/config^g' MEGA_Patch_21.curl #apply the patch ./MEGA_Patch_20.curl Note that if Aether is installed on a different machine, then port-forwarding may be necessary. Expected CURL output from a successful Mega-Patch post will be a UUID. You can also verify that the Mega-Patch was successful by going into the ``aether-roc-gui`` in a browser (see the section on useful port-forwards below). The GUI may open to a dashboard that is unpopulated. You can use the dropdown menu (upper-right hand corner of the screen) to select an object such as Slice and you will see a list of slices. |ROCGUI| Adding New Enterprises ---------------------- Enterprises are stored in `onos-topo` outside of `onos-config` are are usually only created by system administrators during the onboarding of new customers (tenants) on Aether. There is currently no way of adding new Enterprises through the ROC GUI or the ROC API. It can be done in the two ways described in the following sections. Enterprises are specified as Entities using CRDs, and the `onos-operator` ensures that these are created as `entitites` inside `onos-topo`. To check that the current list of enterprises (as CRDs), the following command may be used:: kubectl -n aether get entities and to check that the `onos-operator` does indeed take effect, the ROC API endpoint `/targets` can be used to list the `enterprises`. Another option is to use the `onos-cli` pod to query `onos-topo` directly:: kubectl -n aether exec deployment/onos-cli -- onos topo get entities -v Adding New Enterprises Through Helm Chart ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ To have an entity added at **start up of the cluster** it can be added through the Helm Chart in the `values.yaml` under `enterprises`. e.g.:: enterprises: - id: starbucks name: Starbucks Enterprise lat: 52.5150 long: 13.3885 This will load the `enterprise` as an Entity CRD through the `onos-operator`. Adding New Enterprises Through `onos-topo` ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ New `enterprises` can be added to a live running system through the `onos-topo` command line (bypassing the `onos-operator`). For example:: kubectl -n aether exec deployment/onos-cli -- \ onos topo create entity new-enterprise \ -a onos.topo.Configurable='{"address”:”sdcore-adapter-v2-1:5150”,”version”:”2.1.x”,”type”:”aether”}' \ -a onos.topo.TLSOptions='{"insecure":true}' \ -a onos.topo.Asset='{"name”:”New Enterprise”}' \ -a onos.topo.MastershipState='{}' \ -k enterprise Uninstalling the ``aether-roc-umbrella`` Helm Chart --------------------------------------------------- To tear things back down, usually as part of a developer loop prior to redeploying again, do the following:: helm -n aether del aether-roc-umbrella Useful Port Forwards -------------------- Port forwarding is often necessary to allow access to ports inside of Kubernetes pods that use ClusterIP addressing. Note that you typically need to leave a port-forward running (you can put it in the background). Also, If you redeploy the ROC and/or if a pod crashes then you might have to restart a port-forward. .. note:: No port-forward is necessary with OnRamp. The GUI can be accessed at ``http://:31194`` and the API at ``http://:31194/aether-roc-api/``. The following port-forwards may be useful:: # aether-roc-api kubectl -n aether port-forward service/aether-roc-api --address 0.0.0.0 8181:8181 # aether-roc-gui kubectl -n aether port-forward service/aether-roc-gui-v2-1 --address 0.0.0.0 8183:80 # grafana kubectl -n aether port-forward service/aether-roc-umbrella-grafana --address 0.0.0.0 8187:80 .. note:: Internally, the ``aether-roc-gui`` operates a Reverse Proxy on the ``aether-roc-api``. This means that if you have done a ``port-forward`` to ``aether-roc-gui``, say on port ``8183``, there's no need to do another on the ``aether-roc-api``. Instead, you can access the API on ``http://localhost:8183/aether-roc-api``. Deploying Custom Images -------------------------- Custom images may be used by editing the values-override.yaml file. For example, to deploy a custom ``sdcore-adapter``:: sdcore-adapter-v2-1: prometheusEnabled: false image: repository: my-private-repo/sdcore-adapter tag: my-tag pullPolicy: Always The above example assumes you have published a docker images at ``my-private-repo/sdcore-adapter:my-tag``. One possible workflow is to deploy a local-docker registry and push images to that. There are alternatives to using a private docker repository. For example, if you are using kubeadm, then you may be able to simply tag the image locally. If you’re using KinD, then you can push a local image to into the kind cluster:: kind load docker-image sdcore-adapter:my-tag Developing with a Custom onos-config ------------------------------------- The onos-config Helm Chart is responsible for loading model plugins at runtime. You can override which plugins it loads, and optionally override the image for onos-config as well. For example:: onos-config: image: tag: mytag repository: mydockeraccount/onos-config modelPlugins: - name: aether-2 image: onosproject/aether-2.0.x:2.0.16-aether-2.0.x endpoint: localhost port: 5152 - name: aether-2-1 image: onosproject/aether-2.1.x:2.1.16-aether-2.1.x endpoint: localhost port: 5153 In the above example, the onos-config image will be pulled from `mydockeraccount`, and it will install two plugins for v2 and v4 models, from that same docker account. Inspecting Logs --------------- Most of the relevant Kubernetes pods are in the aether namespace. The names may change from deployment to deployment, so start by getting a list of pods:: kubectl -n aether get pods Then you can inspect a specific pod/container:: kubectl -n aether logs deployment/sdcore-adapter-v2-1 .. _securing_roc: Securing ROC ------------ Running your own Keycloak Server ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ .. note:: There is no longer a central keycloak server for development as there was at `keycloak-dev.onlab.us`, so you must run your own own Keycloak server inside of Kubernetes. See `Keycloak README.md `_ for details. When running it should be available at *http://localhost:8080/realms/master/.well-known/openid-configuration*. .. note:: You can access the Keycloak management page from *http://localhost:8080/admin* but you must login as `admin`. Because of the SSO feature of Keycloak this will affect your Aether ROC GUI login too. To login as two separate users at the same time, use a private browser window for one. .. note:: Services inside the cluster (e.g. onos-config) should set the issuer to *https://keycloak/realms/master* on port 80, while the aether-roc-gui should use `http://localhost:8080/realms/master`. Enabling Security ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ When deploying ROC with the ``aether-roc-umbrella`` chart, secure mode can be enabled by specifying an OpenID Connect (OIDC) issuer; for example:: helm -n aether install aether-roc-umbrella aether/aether-roc-umbrella \ --set onos-config.openidc.issuer=http://keycloak/realms/master \ --set onos-config.openpolicyagent.enabled=true \ --set onos-config.openpolicyagent.regoConfigMap=aether-roc-umbrella-opa-rbac \ --set aether-roc-api.openidc.issuer=http://keycloak/realms/master \ --set aether-roc-gui-v2-1.openidc.issuer=http://localhost:8080/realms/master \ --set prom-label-proxy-acc.config.openidc.issuer=http://keycloak/realms/master \ --set prom-label-proxy-amp.config.openidc.issuer=http://keycloak/realms/master The choice of OIDC issuer in this case is the **local** Keycloak server at *http://keycloak* inside the `aether` namespace. Production Environment ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ In a production environment, the public Aether Keycloak (with its LDAP server populated with real Aether users and groups) should be used. See `public keycloak `_ for more details. .. note:: Your RBAC access to ROC will be limited by the groups you belong to in its LDAP store. Role Based Access Control ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ When secured, access to the configuration in ROC is limited by the **groups** that a user belongs to. * **AetherROCAdmin** - users in this group have full read **and** write access to all configuration. * ** - users in a group the lowercase name of an enterprise, will have **read** access to that enterprise. * **EnterpriseAdmin** - users in this group will have read **and** write access the enterprise they belong to. Requests to a Secure System ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ When configuration is retrieved or updated through *aether-config*, a Bearer Token in the form of a JSON Web Token (JWT) issued by the selected OIDC Issuer server must accompany the request as an Authorization Header. This applies to both the REST interface of ``aether-roc-api`` **and** the *gnmi* interface of ``aether-config``. In the Aether ROC, a Bearer Token can be generated by logging in and selecting API Key from the menu. This pops up a window with a copy button, where the key can be copied. Alternatively with Keycloak a Token may be requested programmatically through the Keycloak API:: curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:8080/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/token' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \ --data-urlencode 'grant_type=password' \ --data-urlencode 'client_id=aether-roc-gui' \ --data-urlencode 'username=alicea' \ --data-urlencode 'password=password' \ --data-urlencode 'scope=openid profile email groups' | jq "{access_token}" The key will expire after 24 hours. .. image:: images/aether-roc-gui-copy-api-key.png :width: 580 :alt: Aether ROC GUI allows copying of API Key to clipboard Accessing the REST interface from a tool like Postman, should include this Auth token. .. image:: images/postman-auth-token.png :width: 930 :alt: Postman showing Authentication Token pasted in Logging """"""" The logs of *aether-config* will contain the **username** and **timestamp** of any **gnmi** call when security is enabled. .. image:: images/aether-config-log.png :width: 887 :alt: aether-config log message showing username and timestamp Accessing GUI from an external system """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" To access the ROC GUI from a computer outside the Cluster machine using *port-forwarding* then it is necessary to: * Ensure that all *port-forward*'s have **--address=0.0.0.0** * Add to the IP address of the cluster machine to the **/etc/hosts** of the outside computer as:: k3u-keycloak aether-roc-gui * Verify that you can access the Keycloak server by its name *http://localhost:8080/realms/master/.well-known/openid-configuration* * Access the GUI through the hostname (rather than ip address) ``http://aether-roc-gui:8183`` Troubleshooting Secure Access """"""""""""""""""""""""""""" While every effort has been made to ensure that securing Aether is simple and effective, some difficulties may arise. One of the most important steps is to validate that the OIDC Issuer (Keycloak server) can be reached from the browser. The **well_known** URL should be available and show the important endpoints are correct. .. image:: images/keycloak-389-umbrella-well-known.png :width: 580 :alt: Keycloak Well Known page If logged out of the Browser when accessing the Aether ROC GUI, accessing any page of the application should redirect to the Keycloak login page. .. image:: images/keycloak-ldap-login-page.png :width: 493 :alt: Keycloak Login page When logged in the User details can be seen by clicking the User's name in the drop down menu. This shows the **groups** that the user belongs to, and can be used to debug RBAC issues. .. image:: images/aether-roc-gui-user-details.png :width: 700 :alt: User Details page When you sign out of the ROC GUI, if you are not redirected to the Keycloak Login Page, you should check the Developer Console of the browser. The console should show the correct OIDC issuer (Keycloak server), and that Auth is enabled. .. image:: images/aether-roc-gui-console-loggedin.png :width: 418 :alt: Browser Console showing correct configuration ROC Data Model Conventions and Requirements ------------------------------------------- The Mega-Patch described above will bring up a fully compliant sample data model. However, it may be useful to bring up your own data model, customized to a different site of sites. This subsection documents conventions and requirements for the Aether modeling within the ROC. The ROC models must be configured with the following: * A default enterprise with the id `defaultent`. * A default site with the id `defaultent-defaultsite`. This site should be within the `defaultent` enterprise. .. |ROCGUI| image:: images/rocgui.png :width: 945 :alt: ROC GUI showing list of Slices
