go-ceph - Go bindings for Ceph APIs (RBD, RADOS, CephFS)
This project uses Semantic Versioning (http://semver.org/).
Installation
go get github.com/noahdesu/go-ceph
The native RADOS library and development headers are expected to be installed.
Documentation
Detailed documentation is available at http://godoc.org/github.com/noahdesu/go-ceph.
Connecting to a cluster
Connect to a Ceph cluster using a configuration file located in the default search paths.
conn, _ := rados.NewConn()
conn.ReadDefaultConfigFile()
conn.Connect()
A connection can be shutdown by calling the Shutdown
method on the
connection object (e.g. conn.Shutdown()
). There are also other methods for
configuring the connection. Specific configuration options can be set:
conn.SetConfigOption("log_file", "/dev/null")
and command line options can also be used using the ParseCmdLineArgs
method.
args := []string{ "--mon-host", "1.1.1.1" }
err := conn.ParseCmdLineArgs(args)
For other configuration options see the full documentation.
Object I/O
Object in RADOS can be written to and read from with through an interface very similar to a standard file I/O interface:
// open a pool handle
ioctx, err := conn.OpenIOContext("mypool")
// write some data
bytes_in := []byte("input data")
err = ioctx.Write("obj", bytes_in, 0)
// read the data back out
bytes_out := make([]byte, len(bytes_in))
n_out, err := ioctx.Read("obj", bytes_out, 0)
if bytes_in != bytes_out {
fmt.Println("Output is not input!")
}
Pool maintenance
The list of pools in a cluster can be retreived using the ListPools
method
on the connection object. On a new cluster the following code snippet:
pools, _ := conn.ListPools()
fmt.Println(pools)
will produce the output [data metadata rbd]
, along with any other pools that
might exist in your cluster. Pools can also be created and destroyed. The
following creates a new, empty pool with default settings.
conn.MakePool("new_pool")
Deleting a pool is also easy. Call DeletePool(name string)
on a connection object to
delete a pool with the given name. The following will delete the pool named
new_pool
and remove all of the pool's data.
conn.DeletePool("new_pool")
Contributing
Contributions are welcome & greatly appreciated, every little bit helps. Make code changes via Github pull requests:
- Fork the repo and create a topic branch for every feature/fix. Avoid making changes directly on master branch.
- All incoming features should be accompanied with tests.
- Make sure that you run
go fmt
before submitting a change set. Alternatively the Makefile has a flag for this, so you can callmake fmt
as well. - The integration tests can be run in a docker container, for this run:
make test-docker
