Add the --deployment option to commands
rally task report
andrally task export
that allows to report/export all tasks from defined deployment.Briefly: the new base image is published at Docker Hub Detailed story: Long time ago Rally team introduced first docker images which
were hosted by rallyforge account at Docker Hub. Due to various circumstances we lost access to that account and Docker support restored access to it in a strange way (we lost all repositories and could not recreate them). That is why Rally team started publishing docker images from scratch. The new organization was created -xRally . Since we already had plans to move OpenStack plugins to the separate repository, we started publishing images with in-tree OpenStack plugins to xrally/xrally-openstack repository. As soon as, a separate package for OpenStack plugins was introduced, we switched the source of xrally/xrally-openstack Docker Hub repository to rally-openstack git repository. As for Rally 1.0.0 we finally have pure framework without heavy dependencies and can start publishing separate images for Rally framework itself which can be used as a base image for all plugins. New images will be located at xrally/xrally Docker Hub repository.
rally --version
prints version of Rally framework with versions of installed plugins instead of printing just version of Rally framework.- Dockerfile moved from the root directory to ./etc/docker/
A floating bug with constant_for_duration
runner.
Minor inner fixes
- New validator
map_keys
for checking keys of specific argument. - Support of ElasticSearch 6.x cluster elastic exporter.
- Improved validation errors for task component.
- [ElasticSearch exporter] Do not send 'no-name-action' index when the item fails after some atomic actions completed and there is a root atomic. For example, there is 'wait-for-some-resource-ready' action. It consists of a bunch of get requests to update the current status. After specified timeout this action can fail if the resource is not in the right state. In such case, there is no reason to use 'no-name-action' for saving the error, the parent index (i.e 'wait-for-some-resource-ready') will already store it.
- Introducing
rally env cleanup
command for performing disaster cleanup. - New CI jobs for checking compatibility with Python 3.4, 3.6, 3.7 .
- The output of json task result exporter (
rally task report --json
) is extended with information about environment where task was executed (newenv_name
andenv_uuid
properties) - Add the --filter-by option to the command
rally task detailed
, which allows us to show only those workloads which we are interested in (see the examples below). Examples:- show only failed workloads
rally task detailed --filter-by sla-failures
- show only those workloads which include the next scenario plugin(s)
rally task detailed --filter-by scenarios=scenario1[,scenarios2...]
- show only failed workloads
- requirements and constraints (suggested versions) files are updated.
- Disturbing warning message about removing in-tree OpenStack plugins. This message became redundant after Rally 1.0.0 when such plugins were removed.
- OpenStack related configuration options for sample file.
- Deprecated in Rally 0.10
rally.task.exporter.Exporter
class in favor ofrally.task.exporter.TaskExporter
.
- Building HTML reports for verifications at python 3 environment. Launchpad-bug #1785549
- 'async' argument of API method task.abort in favor of 'wait' argument which doesn't conflict with a reserved keyword in python 3.7
It finally happened. We are happy to inform you that OpenStack plugins has a single home - https://github.com/openstack/rally-openstack . All in-tree plugins are removed now and framework part become more lightweight.
If you are interested only in OpenStack plugins, just change the package you
are installing from rally
to rally-openstack
. If you have custom
OpenStack plugins which inherits from upstream, change python imports from
rally.plugins.openstack
to rally_openstack
. That is all.
If you are interested not only in OpenStack, you can start using your favourite tool for various platforms and systems. Here you can find our first attempts to seize the world - https://github.com/xrally/xrally-docker and https://github.com/xrally/xrally-kubernetes.
Since OpenStack plugins were moved to the separate repository, the new release notes should become light as well, so there is no need in separate pages for each release. All release notes will be aggregated in a single file CHANGELOG.rst.
Also, it is sad to mention, but due to OpenStack policies we need to stop
duplicating release notes at git tag message
. At least for now.
- All OpenStack related plugins.
- Validation of existing platforms in Python 3 environment.
- Support of testr for verifiers.
