Ambari development environment

Docker based development environment for Ambari

This project aims to ease the development of the ambari server by setting up a real-like development environment using docker containers.

Prerequisites

The following software components need to be installed:

• [Boot2docker] (http://boot2docker.io/)
• [docker-compose] (https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/)

The concept

• the source code is cloned to the host machine
• the project is made available to the containers as docker volumes
• development is done in the preferred IDE, on the host
• components (the server and the agents) run in docker containers

Usage

1. clone the project from the git repo: git clone [e-mail]:lpuskas/ambari-dev-env.git

2. set up your development profile: ./setup.sh and set the variables in the generated .dev-profile file

3. run the ./setup.sh again

4. run the ./startDevEnv.sh

5. you remotely debug the code from your IDE

Set up local mirror for Yum repos

run ./setup.sh repo-mirror repoid repo_source_url

e.g. ./setup.sh repo-mirror HDP-2.3.2.0 http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/HDP/centos6/2.x/updates/2.3.2.0/hdp.repo will setup a mirror for HDP-2.3.2.0

Using repos from local mirror

Specify http://yum-repos/repos/HDP-2.3.2.0 and http://yum-repos/repos/HDP-UTILS-1.1.0.20 as the URL for the HDP repositories for the desired os type when deploying the cluster.

Ambari server command line

Ambari server command line functions can be reached through ambari-server.py python script within ambari server docker container

1. Start a bash session in a running ambari server container docker exec -it ambari-server bash
2. Run the desired ambari server command line function in the container

e.g. to refresh stack hash codes run python /ambari/ambari-server/src/main/python/ambari-server.py refresh-stack-hash
