Provisioning library for CI and local multi-host testing supporting multiple provisioning providers (OpenStack, AWS, libvirt, podman containers, Beaker).
But in comparison to multi-cloud libraries, the aim is to be able to describe host from application perspective. E.g.:
network: IPv4
hosts:
- name: master.testdomain.test
role: master
group: ipaserver
os: fedora-31
- name: client.testdomain.test
role: client
group: ipaclient
os: fedora-30This is then combined with provisioning configuration where each provider has
defined meaning for role, group, os params which e.g. translates to
flavors, images, ...
provider: openstack # default provider
openstack:
images:
fedora-30: Fedora-Cloud-Base-30-compose-latest
fedora-31: Fedora-Cloud-Base-31
flavors:
ipaserver: ci.m1.medium
ipaclient: ci.m1.micro
networks:
IPv4: net_ci_4
IPv6: net_ipv6_only
dual: net_cci_4_6
keypair: ipa_key
beaker:
distros:
fedora-30: FEDORA-30%
fodora-31: FEDORA-31%So then user can quickly change provisioning location just by changing provider name without needing to redefine the provider/cloud specifics. This is especially useful for a lot of jobs sharing the same app specific provisioner configuration.
provider: beakerOr each host can use a different provider:
hosts:
- name: master.testdomain.test
role: master
group: ipaserver
os: fedora-31
provider: openstack
network: dual
- name: client.testdomain.test
role: client
group: ipaclient
os: fedora-30
provider: beakerThe output is then Ansible inventory with correct group mapping and information which allows to SSH to the machines.

pip install mrack
It is also available for Fedora 32+ via COPR:
# enable the copr at your system
sudo dnf copr enable @freeipa/neoave
# install mrack package with all supported providers and cli
sudo dnf install mrack
# install mrack command and e.g. AWS provider
sudo dnf install mrack-cli python3-mrack-aws
# install mrack library to be later used as an import with support of OpenStack provider:
sudo dnf install python3-mrack-openstack
NOTE
Above command will install mrack package which depends on (contains) following packages:
- mrack-cli
- python3-mracklib
- python3-mrack-aws
- python3-mrack-beaker
- python3-mrack-openstack
- python3-mrack-podman
- python3-mrack-virt
The python3-mracklib is mandatory as it contains core mrack library.
To install only some of mrack providers you should install python3-mrack-{provider_name}.
To install mrack command a package mrack-cli is required.
In order to use the mrack utility a mrack.conf (e.g. [mrack.conf] from the repository(repo/blob/main/src/mrack/data/mrack.conf)) is needed.
mrack looks for the config file in following order:
./actual directory~/.mrack/home directory/etc/mrack/system directory
Values from the configuration file could be overriden using mrack utility
options --mrack-config --provisioning-config --db (for more see mrack --help).
Usage: mrack [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...
Multihost human friendly provisioner.
Options:
-c, --mrack-config PATH
-p, --provisioning-config PATH
-d, --db PATH
--debug
--help Show this message and exit.
Commands:
destroy Destroy provisioned hosts.
list List host tracked by.
output Create outputs - such as Ansible inventory.
ssh SSH to host.
up Provision hosts.
To provision system from the metadata.yaml either run:
mrack up
or use up command's option --metadata/-m to override path to the metadata file.
mrack up --metadata other-metadata.yaml
To return resources using mrack run:
mrack destroy
or use destroy command's option --metadata/-m to override path to the metadata file.
mrack destroy --metadata other-metadata.yaml

Contributions (Pull Requests) are welcome. It is expected that they will pass tox tests and code checkers. Inclusion of the unit tests for the new code is recommended. Because of that we have configured pre-commit hook. Please enable the feature on your local system and use it before sending a patch. It could save us lot of re-pushing to the PR.
Expected formatting can be achieved by running:
$ make format
Look into black documentation for possible integration in editors/IDEs.
Just run tox to execute all tests and linters
$ tox
# or use make
$ make test
