Yeah.. it'd be nice to do it natively though :) ________________________________ From: Plotka, Bartlomiej [[email protected]] Sent: 10 November 2015 15:38 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Custom python executor with Docker
This is somehow possible using Kubernetes over Mesos: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/master/docs/getting-started-guides/mesos.md Kind Regards, Bartek Plotka From: Aaron Carey [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, November 10, 2015 4:33 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Custom python executor with Docker We would also be interested in some sort of standardised DockerExecutor which would allow us to add pre and post launch steps.

If anybody knows of a standard / openly available DockerExecutor like what is described below, my team would be greatly interested.

Users provide docker images encapsulating application logic, which we (we = say some “Central API”) schedule on Chronos / Marathon. However, we need to run some standard pre / post steps for every docker submitted by users. We have following options – 1. Ask every user to embed their logic inside a pre-defined docker template which will perform pre/post steps. ==> This is error prone, makes us dependent on whether the users followed template, and not very popular with users either. 2. Extend every user docker (FROM <>) and find a way to add pre-post steps in our docker. Refer this docker when scheduling on chronos / marathon. ==> Building new dockers does not scale as users and applications grow 3. Write a custom executor which will perform the pre-post steps and manage the user docker lifetime. ==> Deals with user docker lifetime and is obviously complex. Is there a standard / openly available DockerExecutor which manages the docker lifetime and which I can extend to build my custom executor? This way I will be concerned only with my custom logic (pre/post steps) and still get benefits of a standard way to manage docker containers. Btw, thanks for the meaningful discussion below, it is very helpful.

It's much simpler than managing the lifetime of the Docker container yourself.

Let me try to state my problem more clearly Our project is performing file-based data processing. I would like to keep the actual algorithm as contained as possible since we are in an R&D setting and will be getting untested code. We have some pre/post steps that need to be run on the same box as the actual algorithm: downloading/uploading files and database calls. We can run the pre/post steps and algorithm within the same container. The algorithm will be a little less contained, but it will work. Docker letting you specify a cgroup parent is really exciting. If I invoke a docker container with the executor as the cgroup-parent are there any other steps I need to perform? Would I need to do anything special to make mesos aware of the resource usage, or is that handled since the docker process would be in the executors cgroup?

Alternatively, you can actually launch your custom executor in a Docker container by Mesos, by specifying the ContainerInfo in the ExecutorInfo. What this means is that your custom executor is already running in a docker container, and you can do your custom logic afterwards. This does means you can simply just launch multiple containers in the executor anymore. If there is something you want to do and doesnt' fit these let us know what you're trying to achieve and we can see what we can do.
