Mount examples
to pre-load the example machine groups and profiles. Run the container with rkt,

or with Docker.
$ sudo docker run -p 8080:8080 --rm -v $PWD/examples:/var/lib/matchbox:Z -v $PWD/examples/groups/etcd:/var/lib/matchbox/groups:Z quay.io/coreos/matchbox:latest -address=0.0.0.0:8080 -log-level=debug
The gRPC API allows clients with a TLS client certificate and key to make RPC requests to programmatically create or update matchbox
resources. The API can be enabled with the -rpc-address
flag and by providing a TLS server certificate and key with -cert-file
and -key-file
and a CA certificate for authenticating clients with -ca-file
.
Run the binary with TLS credentials from examples/etc/matchbox
.
$ ./bin/matchbox -address=0.0.0.0:8080 -rpc-address=0.0.0.0:8081 -log-level=debug -data-path=examples -assets-path=examples/assets -cert-file examples/etc/matchbox/server.crt -key-file examples/etc/matchbox/server.key -ca-file examples/etc/matchbox/ca.crt
Clients, such as bootcmd
, verify the server's certificate with a CA bundle passed via -ca-file
and present a client certificate and key via -cert-file
and -key-file
to cal the gRPC API.
$ ./bin/bootcmd profile list --endpoints 127.0.0.1:8081 --ca-file examples/etc/matchbox/ca.crt --cert-file examples/etc/matchbox/client.crt --key-file examples/etc/matchbox/client.key
Run the ACI with rkt and TLS credentials from examples/etc/matchbox
.
$ sudo rkt run --net=metal0:IP=172.18.0.2 --mount volume=data,target=/var/lib/matchbox --volume data,kind=host,source=$PWD/examples,readOnly=true --mount volume=config,target=/etc/matchbox --volume config,kind=host,source=$PWD/examples/etc/matchbox --mount volume=groups,target=/var/lib/matchbox/groups --volume groups,kind=host,source=$PWD/examples/groups/etcd quay.io/coreos/matchbox:latest -- -address=0.0.0.0:8080 -rpc-address=0.0.0.0:8081 -log-level=debug
A bootcmd
client can call the gRPC API running at the IP used in the rkt example.
$ ./bin/bootcmd profile list --endpoints 172.18.0.2:8081 --ca-file examples/etc/matchbox/ca.crt --cert-file examples/etc/matchbox/client.crt --key-file examples/etc/matchbox/client.key
