I think it would be interesting.
I am actually using a shell script written by Loic Dachary from his blog 
(http://dachary.org/?p=2374). 

The ceph-standalone package would be very useful for fast appropriation and 
understanding of Ceph. 
This kind of installation can facilitate client functional tests and demos 
(even on a laptop).

I do not have the skills for it, but I'm interested in the outcome.

Regards

Alain Dechorgnat

One idea kicking around is to create a simple ceph-standalone package that is 
meant to make it really easy to play around with Ceph.  It would:

- depend on all the relevant ceph packages
- install a simple, generic ceph.conf for use on localhost (or perhaps whatever 
/etc/hosts has for our hostname)
- mkfs and start up a mon
- start up an osd (or two?) in /var/lib/ceph (no dedicated disk/volume)
- start an mds
- add an apache2 site in /etc/apache2/sites-available (or whatever)

The idea would be to do

$ sudo apt-get install ceph-standalone
$ ceph -s
[...]

and have a usable mini-cluster.  That makes it really easy for users to play 
with the basics, like:

$ mkdir /mnt/ceph
$ sudo ceph-fuse /mnt/ceph

$ rbd create ...
$ rbd map ...

$ curl http://localhost:8000/
<more rgw stuff>

Does this sound useful?  Any takers?
