This commit updates vmpooler.rb, api.rb and providers.rb with style changes as
per rubocop style violations.
This commit also updates the rubocop configuration to always use LF line endings
even on Windows as rubocop was expecting CRLF even though git is configured
for LF.
Previously the only VM Provider was vSphere however this made testing and making
changes difficult as it required a functioning vSphere instance. This commit
adds a Dummy Provider which presents a VM provider to Pool Manager but manages
provisioned "VM"s in a hashtable. The Dummy Provider can also be configured to
randomly fail operations and take random amounts of time to perform operations,
such as cloning a VM, which is useful to see how the Pool Manager copes with
these events.
This commit also updates the configuration YAML documentation and adds
appropriate unit tests.
This commit fixes minor rubocopy violations in eleven source files. Minor
violations are those that include formatting, single quotes, and recently added
classes.
Previously all of the VM provisioning code was intertwined with the VM lifecycle
code e.g. The VSphere specific code is mixed with Redis code. This makes it
impossible to add aditional providers or disable VSphere integration. This
commit begins the process to refactor the VSphere code out of the lifecycle code
by introducing the concept of VM Providers. A Provider will contain the logic/
code to manage VMs i.e. create/destroy/inquire. Therefore the Pool Manager can
query a strict interface into one or more Providers. Initially only a VSphere
provider will be available.
This commit adds the base class for all providers and describes the API or
contract that the Pool Manager will use to manage VMs.
