| [13:21] <antono> hi all | |
| [13:21] <antono> charm for statusnet is broken somehow | |
| [13:21] <antono> anyone managed to use it succesfully? | |
| [13:22] <antono> first i belive it's not idemponent... koz it fails on juju resolved --retry statusnet/X trying remove index.html that already was deleted | |
| [13:23] <antono> i think some automatical idemponency check for charms should be performed. otherwise charm store will be full of half-baked half-working charms. | |
| [13:24] <antono> and one question: can i use something other than m1.small on amazon? | |
| [13:30] <antono> oh. there is a bug reported against statusnet charm LP#914851 | |
| [13:30] <_mup_> Bug #914851: Fails to configure when title has a space in it <statusnet (Juju Charms Collection):New> < https://launchpad.net/bugs/914851 > | |
| [13:53] <antono> is it possible to install 2 services on 1 machine with juju? | |
| [13:54] <antono> each juju deploy runs new EC2 instance. it does not look smart | |
| [14:08] <_mup_> Bug #952262 was filed: Juju should use XDG directory layout <juju:New> < https://launchpad.net/bugs/952262 > | |
| [14:26] <antono> i found hwo to run other than m1.small! "default-instance-type" in config | |
| [14:58] <SpamapS> antono: actually I think I found that it had some idempotency problems a while back yeah | |
| [14:58] <SpamapS> antono: we do an automated install test right now | |
| [14:58] <antono> SpamapS: cool! | |
| [14:58] <SpamapS> antono: http://charmtests.markmims.com/ | |
| [14:58] <antono> i going to create generic rails charm | |
| [14:59] <SpamapS> antono: and a lot were broken by a recent change to config.yaml handling IIRC | |
| [14:59] <SpamapS> antono: there's already a generic rails charm | |
| [14:59] <antono> oh, for real? :) | |
| [14:59] <antono> havent find it yet :) | |
| [15:00] <antono> can i clone all charms in one place with one command? | |
| [15:00] <SpamapS> antono: try 'charm search rails' | |
| [15:00] <antono> i came from git background and not sure how to deal with submodules in bzr | |
| [15:00] <SpamapS> antono: 'charm getall /path/to/charm/root' | |
| [15:01] <antono> wow. cool | |
| [15:01] <SpamapS> oh git.. :-P | |
| [15:01] <SpamapS> antono: note that charm getall is REALLY slow | |
| [15:01] <antono> SpamapS: is it possible to set somehow default repository | |
| [15:01] <antono> , | |
| [15:02] <antono> SpamapS: oh, bzr | |
| [15:02] <antono> :) | |
| [15:03] <antono> i'd like to get all charms somwhere to ~/.local/share/juju/charms and use it as default repository... unless other location specified | |
| [15:03] <SpamapS> antono: I'd be happy to take a patch to charm-tools to provide a way to get them all branchd from git instead of bzr. | |
| [15:03] <antono> SpamapS: as for me bzr is ok :) | |
| [15:03] <antono> nice to learn something new | |
| [15:04] <SpamapS> antono: a change landed last week that takes the default --repository from $JUJU_REPOSITORYY | |
| [15:04] <SpamapS> bzr is about 5x easier than git to learn | |
| [15:04] <antono> SpamapS: yep. probably yes | |
| [15:04] <SpamapS> It just makes it harder to rewrite history like git, so people get frustrated with it because they're used to that. | |
| [15:05] <antono> SpamapS: i found bzr rebase plugin :) | |
| [15:05] <SpamapS> yeah, which is silly once you realize that the very act of doing 'bzr merge' is just like rebase, except it does not discard history. | |
| [15:06] <antono> SpamapS: does bzr merge put my commits on top of target branch? | |
| [15:07] <SpamapS> antono: if you have branch A, and branch B, and you mege from B->A, then A will get one commit with all the missing changes from B. | |
| [15:07] <antono> SpamapS: and collocated branches is something really useful. i know they are here with bzr 2.5 | |
| [15:08] <SpamapS> antono: there's a blugin for that I think now called cobzr | |
| [15:08] <SpamapS> written, oddly enough, by the original architect of juju ;) | |
| [15:08] <SpamapS> antono: http://labix.org/cobzr | |
| [15:08] <antono> SpamapS: not sure why but i'd like to have separate commits after merge | |
| [15:09] <antono> anyway. juju is way to go | |
| [15:09] <antono> i like it | |
| [15:09] <antono> but... some questions to you :) | |
| [15:09] <SpamapS> antono: they're still there.. just wrapped up in a single commit. | |
| [15:10] <antono> does it allow to run some unit on specified machine? | |
| [15:10] <antono> i would like to run 3 app servers and 1 db on single amazon node | |
| [15:10] <SpamapS> antono: two answers for that | |
| [15:10] <SpamapS> antono: either a) use the local provider on that one machine (but this means you cannot scale beyond that one machine) | |
| [15:11] <SpamapS> antono: or b) lets go on an adventure to see if the recent 'constraints' branch allows specifying machine ids.. | |
| [15:11] <SpamapS> antono: there's also c) use my new experimental not yet landed 'charm splice' command to splice those 4 things into one charm. | |
| [15:12] <antono> SpamapS: thanks for your answers | |
| [15:12] * antono afk for 1 hour | |
| [15:18] <marcoceppi> d) all of the above? | |
| [15:30] <SpamapS> marcoceppi: tell that to George Zip! | |
| [15:48] <antono> hmm. why bzr log does not pipe output to pager by default on ubuntu? | |
| [15:49] <SpamapS> antono: because |less is easy? | |
| [15:50] <antono> oh noes. extra typing is totally wrong. same as expricit --repository requirement | |
| [15:54] <SpamapS> antono: --repository is all but gone | |
| [15:55] <antono> SpamapS: nice :) | |
| [15:55] <antono> same |less should go by default | |
| [15:55] <SpamapS> antono: antono |less is optional though.. if you want to search, | less.. if you just want to limit.. -l # | |
| [15:55] <SpamapS> antono: its a different philosophy, but I personally hate things that push me into the pager like that. :-P | |
| [15:56] <antono> i love ubuntu for sane defaults... and i'ts clear why it's not piped by default in bzr. but on linux it could be default behavior. (i should rant in #bzr probably) | |
| [15:59] <marcoceppi> but if it goes to pager, how will I |grep -ri "stupid committer" to find all the dumb things someone did? | |
| [16:00] <marcoceppi> :) | |
| [16:01] <SpamapS> marcoceppi: it would only go to pager if isatty(stdout) | |
| [16:02] <SpamapS> its a valid, but annoying practice imo | |
| [16:02] <antono> and grep works ok with bzr-pager plugin... | |
| [16:04] <antono> SpamapS: what do you think about charm get lp:some/charm ? | |
| [16:05] <SpamapS> antono: charm get is a bit of a hack... | |
| [16:06] <SpamapS> antono: its mostly for getting charms from the official repo/dev series.. if you want a specific charm.. bzr branch works. :-P | |
| [16:06] <SpamapS> antono: the whole 'charm get*' set of commands is supposed to go away once the full charm store backend service goes live | |
| [16:06] <antono> aha. i saw broken requests to store.charms... | |
| [16:07] <antono> how can i set default environment? | |
| [16:07] <SpamapS> antono: in environments.yaml, you can set a root element 'default: xxxx' | |
| [16:08] <SpamapS> antono: or JUJU_ENVIRONMENT | |
| [16:08] <SpamapS> antono: sorry, JUJU_ENV | |
| [16:09] <SpamapS> which is apparently undocumented. :( | |
| [16:10] <antono> SpamapS: me researching the code :) | |
| [16:13] <SpamapS> At this point we have 2 JUJU_ environment variables affecting the cli.. and 1 in review.. we should probably make a dedicated environment variables document. | |
| [16:14] <antono> SpamapS: i think it should go to man juju | |
| [16:15] <SpamapS> hahahahahaha | |
| [16:15] <SpamapS> man page | |
| [16:15] <SpamapS> thats rich | |
| [16:15] <SpamapS> antono: I wrote a man page once. The dev team rejected it because it wasn't auto-generated :-/ | |
| [16:15] <antono> SpamapS: auto generated from source? | |
| [16:16] <antono> Is there any python solutions for such tasks? | |
| [16:16] <SpamapS> yeah.. they want the man page to be generated from all the argparse --help output | |
| [16:16] <SpamapS> nope | |
| [16:16] <SpamapS> I'd have to write it myself | |
| [16:16] <antono> good idea | |
| [16:16] <antono> :) | |
| [16:16] <SpamapS> sat down to | |
| [16:16] <SpamapS> got disgusted with argparse | |
| [16:17] <SpamapS> antono: btw, was the statusnet problem you saw bug 914851 ? I'm about to fix that (and add a test for it) | |
| [16:17] <_mup_> Bug #914851: Fails to configure when title has a space in it <statusnet (Juju Charms Collection):Confirmed> < https://launchpad.net/bugs/914851 > | |
| [16:18] <antono> SpamapS: yes, it is | |
| [16:18] <antono> Also i belive it doesnt clear /var/www on remove-unit | |
| [16:18] <antono> so next add-unit fails | |
| [16:18] <antono> need to check it | |
| [16:19] <antono> fails due to rm /var/www/index | |
| [16:19] <antono> now. it's obvious that just merging charms will not work | |
| [16:19] <antono> i mean just merge charms to run all on single machine | |
| [16:20] <antono> it should be some good conventions/guidlines for each charm | |
| [16:20] <antono> where should it put it's files | |
| [16:20] <SpamapS> antono: what is "remove-unit" ? ;) | |
| [16:20] <antono> statusnet puts all to /var/www | |
| [16:21] <SpamapS> antono: charms were never meant to be more than 1 per server | |
| [16:21] <antono> SpamapS: i can only say it's bad limitation | |
| [16:22] <SpamapS> antono: the dev team wants to use LXC so the charms are completely namespaced from eachother | |
| [16:23] <antono> SpamapS: yeah. thats good idea. in this case it's ok to have charm per machine | |
| [16:23] <antono> and it's certainly will simplyfy things a lot | |
| [16:23] <SpamapS> antono: unfortunately, thats complicated because LXC also namespaces the network.. so you have to figure out a way to make all the charms reachable from all the other nodes. On EC2 that won't work because the network is tightly controlled. | |
| [16:23] <antono> from charm-writer point of view | |
| [16:24] <SpamapS> antono: t1.micro is pretty cheap... ;) | |
| [16:24] <SpamapS> for testing. And for production.. m1.small's are the only sane thing. :) | |
| [16:25] <antono> i use m1.micro for my blog, mail, jabber, git etc | |
| [16:27] <SpamapS> antono: right, none of those would conflict with the splice method. :) | |
| [16:29] <SpamapS> antono: I actually think deploy and add-unit should take a '--machine' argument.. this is agreed upon as a more generick '--placement' option but its implementation is still pending. | |

| [16:35] <jcastro> oh cool, are you deploying status.net with the charm antono? | |
| [16:39] <_mup_> Bug #952355 was filed: Backward incompatible change: existing env boolean values cause total failure <juju:New> < https://launchpad.net/bugs/952355 > | |
| [16:42] <antono> jcastro: yes, just testing juju following instructions in your post | |
| [16:42] <antono> jcastro: probably i'll make a charm for http://rstat.us/ | |
| [16:42] <antono> koz it's better than statusnet | |
| [16:43] <jcastro> ah, cool! | |
| [16:43] <antono> and also support ostatus protocol | |
| [16:43] <jcastro> you can enter it in the charm contest! (See topic) | |
| [16:43] <antono> jcastro: yep, i saw | |
| [16:44] <antono> jcastro: you should also make juju documentation contest | |
| [16:44] <antono> i'd like to record some plain/text screencasts for juju | |
| [16:44] <antono> like this one: http://shelr.tv/records/4f53e3df8841ac0001000001 | |
| [16:45] <antono> so copy/paste will work and make things easier for newcomers | |
| [16:45] <SpamapS> antono: rstat.us looks nice. :) | |
| [16:46] <antono> one more thing i going to charm is http://gitlabhq.com/ | |
| [16:46] <antono> should i put this to google doc before start? | |
| [16:46] <SpamapS> antono: bugs.launchpad.net/charms | |
| [16:46] <jcastro> I have a bug for gitlab | |
| [16:47] <jcastro> gitlab would be quite awesome. | |
| [16:47] <SpamapS> the google doc is not really authoritative.. its just richer and easier to organize than bugs.launchpad.net | |
| [16:47] <jcastro> SpamapS, I have a mind to just kill the gdoc | |
| [16:47] <SpamapS> columns are good... | |
| [16:47] <antono> what do you think guys about obeying XDG spec for juju data? | |
| [16:47] <SpamapS> antono: I saw that. Interesting idea. | |
| [16:47] <antono> i mean ~/.config/juju ~/.local/share/juju etc | |
| [16:47] <jcastro> https://bugs.launchpad.net/charms/+bug/931835 | |
| [16:48] <jcastro> here you go ^ | |
| [16:48] <_mup_> Bug #931835: Charm needed: Gitlab <Juju Charms Collection:New> < https://launchpad.net/bugs/931835 > | |
| [16:48] <antono> jcastro: so i should just assign me and start? | |
| [16:48] <jcastro> sure! | |
| [16:49] <antono> done :) | |
| [16:49] <antono> i mean assigned ;) | |
| [16:49] <jcastro> hey nice | |
| [16:49] <jcastro> so gitlab needs mysql and ruby | |
| [16:49] <jcastro> we have those charmed already | |
| [16:49] <antono> jcastro: sqlite afaik | |
| [16:49] <antono> it has some slite specific sql for now | |
| [16:50] <jcastro> ah ok | |
| [16:50] <jcastro> no worries, just as easy | |
| [16:50] <antono> yep. | |
| [16:50] <antono> just as easy as git clone + bundle install | |
| [16:50] <antono> + some setup for apache/nginx | |
| [16:50] <jcastro> gitolite would be cool I think because we don't have a charm that is "I want my own git repo hotness" | |
| [16:51] <SpamapS> jcastro: ruby isn't really "charmed" | |
| [16:51] <antono> jcastro: why should it be charmed? :) | |
| [16:52] <antono> i think it should be ok with apt-get install -y ruby1.9.1-full in install hook | |
| [16:52] <SpamapS> antono: that bit.. "+ some setup" .. thats where the charm wins :) | |
| [16:52] <antono> at least such things work in other charms | |
| [16:52] <SpamapS> antono: I don't think jcastro meant what we think he meant ;) | |
| [16:53] <SpamapS> antono: indeed, just installing the components you need in the install hook is all that is needed | |
| [16:53] <jcastro> no I did not mean what you thought I meant | |
| [16:53] <jcastro> sorry | |
| [16:53] <antono> i have some chef experience | |
| [16:53] <jcastro> I was just thinking aloud when I saw their requirements and was like "we have that, that, and that." | |
| [16:53] <antono> it would be nice to reuse it in charms | |
| [16:54] <jcastro> you can absolutely do that | |
| [16:54] <jcastro> I am surprised no one has tried that yet | |
| [16:54] <antono> it has a lot of well tested idemponent recipes | |
| [16:55] <antono> chef/pupet recipes is a way to go for charms | |
| [16:55] <antono> like build blocks. tested. they have good collection of recipes | |
| [16:55] <antono> also it may increase portability of charms | |
| [16:55] <antono> koz for now they are only debian/ubuntu | |
| [16:55] <SpamapS> antono: yeah, do that. :) | |
| [16:56] <SpamapS> antono: there has been *zero* interest in porting juju to other platforms. | |
| [16:56] <SpamapS> antono: people ask if its possible, thats it | |
| [16:56] <jcastro> I'd rather see a gitolite charm first though | |
| [16:57] <jcastro> People need a slick self-hosted alternative to github! | |
| [16:57] <antono> jcastro: right. same i do | |
| [16:57] <antono> i considered gitorious | |
| [16:57] <SpamapS> antono: Maybe we're biased, being canonical people, but I think using juju means you don't have to care about which OS you're running. | |
| [16:57] <antono> but its hard to install | |
| [16:57] <antono> so charm would be nice | |
| [16:57] <antono> later i find gitolite | |
| [16:58] <jcastro> the nice thing is you can keep the charm up to date | |
| [16:58] <jcastro> you don't have to worry about if a package will make the ubuntu release or whatever. | |
| [16:58] <antono> yes. and it's much more hard to resolve all dependency hell in ruby land | |
| [16:59] <antono> is there any plans to push usage of augtool in charms? | |
| [17:00] <antono> charms in esence are very similar to less strict packaging systems like arch guys have | |
| [17:01] <jcastro> never heard of augtool | |
| [17:01] <jcastro> oh, the augeas thing | |
| [17:01] <antono> augeas, yes | |
| [17:01] <antono> almost silver bullet for configuration management | |
| [17:02] <jcastro> I don't see any reason why you wouldn't use it if you want to in a charm | |
| [17:02] <antono> in all this config zoo it provides unified api at least | |
| [17:03] <antono> hey, all! who participates charms contest? | |
| [17:03] <jcastro> there's been 3 or 4 so fat | |
| [17:03] <jcastro> err, so far | |
| [17:04] <SpamapS> antono: I've used augtool .. I converted to creating files with appending though | |
| [17:05] <SpamapS> antono: augeas is a neat idea.. and useful when you have multiple things influencing a config file that is complicated. But ultimately, its far more predictable to simply control the inputs, and generate the config in its entirety | |
| [17:06] <SpamapS> jcastro: are you able to deploy stuff with r467 ? | |
| [17:09] <jcastro> SpamapS, I only use what you give me in distro bro | |
| [17:09] <SpamapS> ahhhh | |
| [17:11] <antono> SpamapS: you are right. when every charm isolated in it's own container than it's easier to just fill config template with some values | |
| [17:11] <antono> but... augeas also have augtool get | |
| [17:12] <antono> wich is useful... not all this sed | grep | cut stuff | |
| [17:12] <antono> and more reliable than shell one liners... | |
| [17:13] <SpamapS> antono: right, but what would you be extracting from config that you don't know as a charm author? | |
| [17:14] <antono> right, totally predictable... | |
| [17:15] <SpamapS> antono: and even if charms need to both influence a config file, they should both collaborate around that, not try to avoid eachother. | |
| [17:17] <james_w> hey peeps | |
| [17:17] <james_w> where do we stand with subordinate charms? | |
