Felix Abecassis commented on MESOS-3366:
----------------------------------------
To continue the discussion, here is a first draft:
https://reviews.apache.org/r/38279/
1) Only supports resources for now, we can add another hook for attributes with
a very similar code.
2) The callback currently receives the full SlaveInfo structure and construct a
new Resources object.
3) If there is multiple callbacks, each callback will see the changes made by
previous callbacks and are free to override or merge the detected resources as
they see fit.
> Allow resources/attributes discovery

> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: slave
> Reporter: Felix Abecassis
>
> In heterogeneous clusters, tasks sometimes have strong constraints on the
> type of hardware they need to execute on. The current solution is to use
> custom resources and attributes on the agents. Detecting non-standard
> resources/attributes requires wrapping the "mesos-slave" binary behind a
> script and use custom code to probe the agent. Unfortunately, this approach
> doesn't allow composition. The solution would be to provide a hook/module
> mechanism to allow users to use custom code performing resources/attributes
> discovery.
