Midburn ChatOps Server

Allows to perform "devops" tasks from Slack

You will need to get a slack API token (can be done from Slack web UI)

Quickstart

Store the slack token in a file and set the filename in environment variable

echo `read -p "Enter the slack token key: "; echo $REPLY` > ./secret-slack-token
export slack_token_path=./secret-slack-token

Run the chatops server

npm install
npm start

Testing the docker build

Assuming you have following the quickstart and have the slack token in ./secret-slack-token

docker build -t midburn-chatops .
docker run -it \
           -v `pwd`/secret-slack-token:/src/secret-slack-token \
           -e slack_token_path=./secret-slack-token \
           midburn-chatops

Running K8S commands locally

To run K8S environment commands locally you should follow the midburn K8S README so you have access to a cluster.

Ensure it works by running a kubectl command, e.g. kubectl get nodes

Set the MIDBURN_K8S_PATH environment variable to the full path of the midburn k8s repo, e.g.

export MIDBURN_K8S_PATH=/home/user/workspace/midburn-k8s

Run the chatops server from the same shell

npm start

Deployment commands should work (assuming you have the right permissions for your service account)

Running K8S commands from the docker ops

It works as any other sk8s-ops image

You can use the run_docker_ops.sh script to run it:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OriHoch/sk8s/master/run_docker_ops.sh && chmod +x run_docker_ops.sh

Build and run the image using run_docker_ops:

docker build -t midburn-chatops . && [ -e ./secret-k8s-ops.json ] &&\
./run_docker_ops.sh "staging" \
                    "source ~/.bashrc; cd /src; npm start" \
                    "midburn-chatops" \
                    "Midburn/midburn-k8s" "master" \
                    "./secret-k8s-ops.json" " -v `pwd`/secret-slack-token:/src/secret-slack-token \
                                              -e slack_token_path=./secret-slack-token "

Run the image directly:

docker build -t midburn-chatops . && [ -e ./secret-k8s-ops.json ] &&\
docker run -it --entrypoint bash \
               -v `pwd`/secret-slack-token:/src/secret-slack-token \
               -v `pwd`/secret-k8s-ops.json:/k8s-ops/secret.json \
               -e slack_token_path=./secret-slack-token \
               midburn-chatops \
               -c "source ~/.bashrc; cd /src; npm start"
