|
|
Requirements
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Platform
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
* Debian, Ubuntu
|
|
* CentOS, Red Hat, Fedora
|
|
|
|
Tested on:
|
|
|
|
* Debian 5.0
|
|
* Ubuntu 10.04
|
|
* CentOS 5.5
|
|
|
|
Cookbooks
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
Requires Opscode's openssl cookbook for secure password generation.
|
|
|
|
Requires a C compiler and Ruby development package in order to build mysql gem with native extensions. On Debian and Ubuntu systems this is satisfied by installing the "build-essential" and "ruby-dev" packages before running Chef. See USAGE below for information on how to handle this during a Chef run.
|
|
|
|
Resources and Providers
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
The cookbook contains a LWRP, `mysql_database` which can be used to manage databases through calls to the MySQL API. The mysql gem is installed to make this usable. The provider currently supports three actions:
|
|
|
|
* `flush_tables_with_read_lock` - sends the sql command "flush tables with read lock", used for setting up mysql master/slave replication.
|
|
* `unflush_tables` - sends the sql command "unflush tables", used for setting up master/slave replication.
|
|
* `create_db` - specify a database to be created.
|
|
* `query` - send an arbitrary query to the database, this should be used with care. Pass the SQL statement to use with the `sql` resource attribute.
|
|
|
|
For example see the USAGE section below.
|
|
|
|
Attributes
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
* `mysql['server_root_password']` - Set the server's root password with this, default is a randomly generated password with `OpenSSL::Random.random_bytes`.
|
|
* `mysql['server_repl_password']` - Set the replication user 'repl' password with this, default is a randomly generated password with `OpenSSL::Random.random_bytes`.
|
|
* `mysql['server_debian_password']` - Set the debian-sys-maint user password with this, default is a randomly generated password with `OpenSSL::Random.random_bytes`.
|
|
* `mysql['bind_address']` - Listen address for MySQLd, default is node's ipaddress.
|
|
* `mysql['data_dir']` - Location for mysql data directory, default is "/var/lib/mysql"
|
|
* `mysql['conf_dir']` - Location for mysql conf directory, default is "/etc/mysql"
|
|
* `mysql['ec2_path']` - location of mysql data_dir on EC2 nodes, default "/mnt/mysql"
|
|
|
|
Performance tuning attributes, each corresponds to the same-named parameter in my.cnf; default values listed
|
|
|
|
* `mysql['tunable']['key_buffer']` = "250M"
|
|
* `mysql['tunable']['max_connections']` = "800"
|
|
* `mysql['tunable']['wait_timeout']` = "180"
|
|
* `mysql['tunable']['net_write_timeout']` = "30"
|
|
* `mysql['tunable']['net_write_timeout']` = "30"
|
|
* `mysql['tunable']['back_log']` = "128"
|
|
* `mysql['tunable']['table_cache']` = "128"
|
|
* `mysql['tunable']['max_heap_table_size']` = "32M"
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
On client nodes,
|
|
|
|
include_recipe "mysql::client"
|
|
|
|
This will install the MySQL client libraries and development headers on the system. It will also install the Ruby Gem `mysql`, so that the cookbook's LWRP (above) can be used. This is done during the compile-phase of the Chef run. On platforms that are known to have a native package (currently Debian, Ubuntu, Red hat, Centos, Fedora and SUSE), the package will be installed. Other platforms will use the RubyGem.
|
|
|
|
This creates a resource object for the package and does the installation before other recipes are parsed. You'll need to have the C compiler and such (ie, build-essential on Ubuntu) before running the recipes, but we already do that when installing Chef :-). If you want to be able to access a MySQL database via Ruby within another recipe, you could do so, like so:
|
|
|
|
mysql_database "create application_production database" do
|
|
host "localhost"
|
|
username "root"
|
|
password node[:mysql][:server_root_password]
|
|
database "application_production"
|
|
action :create_db
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
This will connect to the MySQL server running on localhost as "root" and password as `mysql[:server_root_password]` attribute (see below) and create the database specified with the `database` parameter. The provider will attempt to determine whether the database exists first.
|
|
|
|
On server nodes,
|
|
|
|
include_recipe "mysql::server"
|
|
|
|
On Debian and Ubuntu, this will preseed the mysql-server package with the randomly generated root password from the attributes file. On other platforms, it simply installs the required packages. It will also create an SQL file, /etc/mysql/grants.sql, that will be used to set up grants for the root, repl and debian-sys-maint users.
|
|
|
|
On EC2 nodes,
|
|
|
|
include_recipe "mysql::server_ec2"
|
|
|
|
When the `ec2_path` doesn't exist we look for a mounted filesystem (eg, EBS) and move the data_dir there.
|
|
|
|
The client recipe is already included by server and 'default' recipes.
