/* Package egoscale is a mapping for with the CloudStack API (http://cloudstack.apache.org/api.html) from Go. It has been designed against the Exoscale (https://www.exoscale.com/) infrastructure but should fit other CloudStack services. Requests and Responses To build a request, construct the adequate struct. This library expects a pointer for efficiency reasons only. The response is a struct corresponding to the request itself. E.g. DeployVirtualMachine gives DeployVirtualMachineResponse, as a pointer as well to avoid big copies. Then everything within the struct is not a pointer. Find below some examples of how egoscale may be used to interact with a CloudStack endpoint, especially Exoscale itself. If anything feels odd or unclear, please let us know: https://github.com/exoscale/egoscale/issues req := &egoscale.DeployVirtualMachine{ Size: 10, ServiceOfferingID: "...", TemplateID: "...", ZoneID: "...", } fmt.Println("Deployment started") resp, err := cs.Request(req) if err != nil { panic(err) } vm := resp.(*egoscale.DeployVirtualMachineResponse).VirtualMachine fmt.Printf("Virtual Machine ID: %s\n", vm.ID) This exemple deploys a virtual machine while controlling the job status as it goes. It enables a finer control over errors, e.g. HTTP timeout, and eventually a way to kill it of (from the client side). req := &egoscale.DeployVirtualMachine{ Size: 10, ServiceOfferingID: "...", TemplateID: "...", ZoneID: "...", } resp := &egoscale.DeployVirtualMachineResponse{} fmt.Println("Deployment started") cs.AsyncRequest(req, func(jobResult *egoscale.AsyncJobResult, err error) bool { if err != nil { // any kind of error panic(err) } // Keep waiting if jobResult.JobStatus == egoscale.Pending { fmt.Println("wait...") return true } // Unmarshal the response into the response struct if err := jobResult.Response(resp); err != nil { // JSON unmarshaling error panic(err) } // Stop waiting return false }) fmt.Printf("Virtual Machine ID: %s\n", resp.VirtualMachine.ID) APIs All the available APIs on the server and provided by the API Discovery plugin cs := egoscale.NewClient("https://api.exoscale.ch/compute", "EXO...", "...") resp, err := cs.Request(&egoscale.ListAPIs{}) if err != nil { panic(err) } for _, api := range resp.(*egoscale.ListAPIsResponse).API { fmt.Printf("%s %s\n", api.Name, api.Description) } // Output: // listNetworks Lists all available networks // ... Security Groups Security Groups provide a way to isolate traffic to VMs. Rules are added via the two Authorization commands. resp, err := cs.Request(&egoscale.CreateSecurityGroup{ Name: "Load balancer", Description: "Opens HTTP/HTTPS ports from the outside world", }) securityGroup := resp.(*egoscale.CreateSecurityGroupResponse).SecurityGroup resp, err = cs.Request(&egoscale.AuthorizeSecurityGroupIngress{ Description: "SSH traffic", SecurityGroupID: securityGroup.ID, CidrList: []string{"0.0.0.0/0"}, Protocol: "tcp", StartPort: 22, EndPort: 22, }) // The modified SecurityGroup is returned securityGroup := resp.(*egoscale.AuthorizeSecurityGroupResponse).SecurityGroup // ... err = client.BooleanRequest(&egoscale.DeleteSecurityGroup{ ID: securityGroup.ID, }) // ... Security Group also implement the generic List, Get and Delete interfaces (Listable, Gettable and Deletable). // List all Security Groups sgs, err := cs.List(new(egoscale.SecurityGroup)) for _, s := range sgs { sg := s.(egoscale.SecurityGroup) // ... } // Get a Security Group sg := &egoscale.SecurityGroup{Name: "Load balancer"} if err := cs.Get(sg); err != nil { ... } // The SecurityGroup struct has been loaded with the SecurityGroup informations if err := cs.Delete(sg); err != nil { ... } // The SecurityGroup has been deleted See: http://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/projects/cloudstack-administration/en/stable/networking_and_traffic.html#security-groups Zones A Zone corresponds to a Data Center. You may list them. Zone implements the Listable interface, which let you perform a list in two different ways. The first exposes the underlying CloudStack request while the second one hide them and you only manipulate the structs of your interest. // Using ListZones request req := &egoscale.ListZones{} resp, err := client.Request(req) if err != nil { panic(err) } for _, zone := range resp.(*egoscale.ListZonesResponse) { ... } // Using client.List zone := &egoscale.Zone{} zones, err := client.List(zone) if err != nil { panic(err) } for _, z := range zones { zone := z.(egoscale.Zone) ... } Elastic IPs An Elastic IP is a way to attach an IP address to many Virtual Machines. The API side of the story configures the external environment, like the routing. Some work is required within the machine to properly configure the interfaces.
