magical salty lbaas scripts

These tools are designed to facilitate the testing of both salt states and code for the libra (LBaaS) system. The script will assist in:

• the creation of a new salt-master vm
• downloading the appropriate git salt state repos and setting up a basic pillar
• bootstrapping the salt master for further action
• deployment of libra environments
• execution of the libra integration test suite

Setup:

The magic requires some preliminary work on your part

• First of all, we expect that you have an HP Cloud account.
• Second, we expect that you have created a keypair for use with the salt-master / test environments
• Third, we expect you to have security group(s) created to allow the salt-master and libra infrastructure nodes to do their thing
• Fourth, that you have fabric, pyyaml, and python-novaclient installed

We include a sample config file for guidance.

To run:

• create saltmagic.cfg with the values filled out
• call the program: python saltmagic.py --verbose

TODO:

• more cleanup (allow the user to hit a flag that will go in and clean up created vm's + the saltmaster once they are done
• more toggles
  • allow for specification of states repo
  • allow for specification of libra repo / ppa (?)
  • more switches in salt-states
  • clean this up
