Configuration¶
Configuration file¶
The configuration file genisys.yml is written in YAML format.
genisys:
# Server address to bind to.
bind: 127.0.0.1
# Application port
port: 7001
# Path to compute definitions
compute_file: ./computes.py
consul:
# Consul host
host: localhost
# Consul port
port: 8500
# Prefix of services managed by genisys
service_prefix: 'skynet_'
connector:
# How frequently to poll all connectors for service status
poll_interval: 15s
Genisys section¶
This section is related to the component configuration.
bind¶
The server address to bind to.
port¶
The port that will be used to communicate with the component via HTTP.
compute_file¶
A python file that defines an optional list of computes that will be loaded by the component during startup.
See Compute definition below for more information on the format of the file.
Consul section¶
This section is related to the Consul service registry.
host¶
The host where is located the Consul server.
port¶
Port associated to the Consul server.
service_prefix¶
Genisys will poll informations about a selected list of services from the Consul service registry. This option is used to configure which services will be targeted by Genisys management.
Compute definition¶
A compute definition defines a link to a connector that will manage specific compute resources (Docker containers, AWS instances...) associated with a service.
A compute definition looks like:
myCompute = {
"name": "myCompute",
"connector": "http://localhost:7051"
}
A compute definition must include a name and a connector.
The connector field is the URL to the genisys connector used to manage compute resources associated to this compute.
An optional service_file (see compute_file) can be used to define services using the format defined above. These definitions will be loaded during the connector startup.
