Tupshin Harper commented on CASSANDRA-7156:
-------------------------------------------
I'm fine with linking to external github repos to provide additional seed
providers, at least initially. There just needs to be very clear and
straightforward instructions for building and deploying them.
> Add a new seed provider for Apache Cloudstack platforms
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-7156
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7156
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Environment: needs access to a cloudstack API endpoint
> Reporter: Pierre-Yves Ritschard
> Assignee: Michael Shuler
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.0.9, 2.1.1
>
> Attachments: 0001-initial-work-on-a-cloudstack-seed-provider.patch
>
>
> The attached patch adds a new seed provider which queries a cloudstack API
> endpoint for instances having a specific tag.
> The tag key and value can be controlled in the configuration file and
>
> will default to 'cassandra_seed' and 'default'.
>
> The Cloudstack endpoint is configured by three parameters in the
>
> configuration file: 'cloudstack_api_endpoint', 'cloudstack_api_key' and
>
> 'cloudstack_api_secret'
>
> By default, CloudstackSeedProvider fetchs the ipaddress of the first
>
> interface, if another index should be used, the nic_index parameter will hold
> it.
> A typical configuration file would thus have:
> {code:yaml}
> seed_provider:
> - class_name: org.apache.cassandra.locator.CloudstackSeedProvider
> parameters:
> - cloudstack_api_endpoint: "https://some.cloudstack.host";
> cloudstack_api_key: "XXXXX"
> cloudstack_api_secret: "XXXXX"
> tag_value: "my_cluster_name"
> {code}
> This introduces no new dependency and together with CASSANDRA-7147 gives an
> easy way of getting started on cloudstack platforms
