Before you install Murano, verify that you completed the following tasks:
Install software prerequisites depending on the operating system you use as described in the System prerequisites section.
Install tox:
sudo pip install tox
Install and configure a database.
Murano can use various database types on back end. For development purposes, use SQLite. For production installations, consider using MySQL database.
Warning
Murano supports PostgreSQL as well. Though, use it with caution as it has not been thoroughly tested yet.
Before you can use MySQL database, proceed with the following:
Install MySQL:
apt-get install mysql-server
Create an empty database:
mysql -u root -p
mysql> CREATE DATABASE murano;
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON murano.* TO 'murano'@'localhost' \
IDENTIFIED BY %MURANO_DB_PASSWORD%;
mysql> exit;
Create a folder to which all murano components will be stored:
mkdir ~/murano
Clone the murano git repository to the management server:
cd ~/murano
git clone git://git.openstack.org/openstack/murano
Create the configuration file. Murano has a common configuration file for API and engine services.
Generate a sample configuration file using tox:
cd ~/murano/murano
tox -e genconfig
Create a copy of murano.conf for further modifications:
cd ~/murano/murano/etc/murano
cp murano.conf.sample murano.conf
Edit the murano.conf file. An example below contains the basic configuration.
Note
The example uses MySQL database. If you want to use another database type, edit the [database] section correspondingly.

Create a virtual environment and install murano prerequisites using tox. The virtual environment will be created under the tox directory.
Install MySQL driver since it is not a part of the murano requirements:
tox -e venv -- pip install PyMYSQL
Create database tables for murano:
cd ~/murano/murano
tox -e venv -- murano-db-manage \
--config-file ./etc/murano/murano.conf upgrade
Launch the murano API in a separate terminal as the console is locked by a running process.
cd ~/murano/murano
tox -e venv -- murano-api --config-file ./etc/murano/murano.conf
Import the core murano library.
cd ~/murano/murano
pushd ./meta/io.murano
zip -r ../../io.murano.zip *
popd
tox -e venv -- murano --murano-url http://localhost:8082 \
package-import --is-public io.murano.zip
Launch the murano engine in a separate terminal as the console is locked by a running process.
cd ~/murano/murano
tox -e venv -- murano-engine --config-file ./etc/murano/murano.conf
To make the murano API available to all OpenStack users, you need to register the Application Catalog service within the Identity service.
Add the application-catalog service to keystone:
openstack service create --name murano --description \
"Application Catalog for OpenStack" application-catalog
Provide an endpoint for this service:
openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne --publicurl 'http://MURANO_IP:8082/' \
--adminurl 'http://MURANO_IP:8082/' --internalurl 'http://http://MURANO_IP:8082/' \
MURANO_SERVICE_ID
where MURANO-SERVICE-ID is the unique service number that can be found in the openstack service create output.
Note
URLs (--publicurl, --internalurl, and --adminurl values) may differ depending on your environment.
This section describes how to install and run the murano dashboard.
Clone the repository with the murano dashboard:
cd ~/murano
git clone git://git.openstack.org/openstack/murano-dashboard
Clone the horizon repository:
git clone git://git.openstack.org/openstack/horizon
Create a virtual environment and install muranodashboard as an editable module:
cd horizon
tox -e venv -- pip install -e ../murano-dashboard
Enable the murano panel in the OpenStack Dashboard by copying the muranodashboard plug-in file to the openstack_dashboard/local/enabled/ directory:
cp ../murano-dashboard/muranodashboard/local/_50_murano.py \
openstack_dashboard/local/enabled/
Prepare local settings.
cp openstack_dashboard/local/local_settings.py.example \
openstack_dashboard/local/local_settings.py
For more information, check out the official
`horizon documentation <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/horizon/topics/settings.html#openstack-settings-partial>`_.
Customize local settings according to your OpenStack installation:
...
ALLOWED_HOSTS = '*'
# Provide OpenStack Lab credentials
OPENSTACK_HOST = '%OPENSTACK_HOST_IP%'
...
# Set secret key to prevent it's generation
SECRET_KEY = 'random_string'
...
DEBUG_PROPAGATE_EXCEPTIONS = DEBUG
Change the default session back end from browser cookies to database to avoid issues with forms during the applications creation:
DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3', 'NAME': 'murano-dashboard.sqlite', } } SESSION_ENGINE = 'django.contrib.sessions.backends.db'
(Optional) If you do not plan to get the murano service from the keystone application catalog, specify where the murano-api service is running:
MURANO_API_URL = 'http://localhost:8082'
(Optional) If you have set up the database as a session back end, perform the database synchronization:
tox -e venv -- python manage.py migrate --noinput
Since a separate user is not required for development purpose, you can reply no.
Run Django server at 127.0.0.1:8000 or provide a different IP and PORT parameters:
tox -e venv -- python manage.py runserver <IP:PORT>
Note
The development server restarts automatically on every code change.
Result: The murano dashboard is available at http://localhost:8000.
To fill the application catalog, you need to import applications to your OpenStack environment. You can import applications using the murano dashboard, as well as the command-line client.
To import applications using CLI, complete the following tasks:
Clone the murano apps repository:
cd ~/murano
git clone git://git.openstack.org/openstack/murano-apps
Import every package you need from this repository by running the following command:
cd ~/murano/murano
pushd ../murano-apps/Docker/Applications/%APP-NAME%/package
zip -r ~/murano/murano/app.zip *
popd
tox -e venv -- murano --murano-url http://localhost:8082 package-import app.zip
Result: The applications are imported and available from the application catalog.
