At the moment the best way to build a Linux image with the murano agent is to use disk image builder.
Note
Disk image builder requires sudo rights
The process is quite simple. Let’s assume that you use a directory ~/git for cloning git repositories:
export GITDIR=~/git
mkdir -p $GITDIR
Clone the components required to build an image to that directory:
cd $GITDIR
git clone git://git.openstack.org/openstack/murano
git clone git://git.openstack.org/openstack/murano-agent
git clone git://git.openstack.org/openstack/diskimage-builder
Checkout a change request that allows to build an image using disk image builder completely installed to virtual environment:
cd $GITDIR/diskimage-builder
git fetch https://review.openstack.org/openstack/diskimage-builder refs/changes/02/168002/2 && git checkout FETCH_HEAD
Install additional packages required by disk image builder:
sudo apt-get install qemu-utils curl python-tox
Export paths where additional dib elements are located:
export ELEMENTS_PATH=$GITDIR/murano/contrib/elements:$GITDIR/murano-agent/contrib/elements
Add passenv = ELEMENTS_PATH at testenv:venv section in tox.ini. And build Ubuntu-based image with the murano agent:
cd $GITDIR/diskimage-builder
tox -e venv -- disk-image-create vm ubuntu murano-agent -o ../murano-agent.qcow2
If you need a Fedora based image, replace ‘ubuntu’ to ‘fedora’ in the last command.
It’ll take a while (up to 30 minutes if your hard drive and internet connection are slow).
When you are done upload the murano-agent.qcow2 image to glance and play :)
