Tool to translate non-heat templates to Heat Orchestration Template.

Overview

Heat-Translator is an Openstack project and licensed under Apache 2. It is a command line tool which takes non-Heat templates as an input and produces a Heat Orchestration Template (HOT) which can be deployed by Heat. Currently the development and testing is done with an aim to translate OASIS Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications (TOSCA) templates to HOT. However, the tool is designed to be easily extended to use with any format other than TOSCA.

Architecture

Heat-Translator tool takes an in-memory graph from TOSCA Parser as an input, maps it to Heat resources and then produces a HOT.

Mitaka release development plan

TOSCA Parser and Heat-Translator PyPI Release PyPI Bug Fix Release (0.0.X) Approx. Target Date (TOSCA-Parser) Approx. Target Date (Heat-Translator) Comments
0.3.0 12/02/2015 12/15/2015 Considering Tokyo summit & thanksgiving holidays.
0.4.0 01/25/2016 02/12/2016 Considering personal vacations & Christmas/New year holidays.
0.5.0 04/02/2016 04/30/2016

Enhancements made under 0.3.0 release

OpenStack Nova flavor for TOSCA flavor constraints - until now there was a pre-defined set of flavors to use with translation but with this feature flavors are fetched dynamically from Nova, based on constraints defined in the TOSCA template, when run heat-translator in an OpenStack environment.

New option to only validate template - allows user to only validate TOSCA template file without running translation.

New option to save translation output to desired file – produces a ready to deploy HOT template.

New test suite for the shell

Auto deployment of translated templates with proper authentication with Keystone and using Heat client to create stack. Also Nova and Glance clients, instead of direct REST calls, are now used to query available flavors and images in the user environment. This was a needed update on initial deployment support where OS_* environment variables were used to determine deployment instead of Keystone auth.
